THE PRINCESS and THE FROG
Wlat Disney Pictures

The story takes place in New Orleans’ French Quarter during the 1920’s Jazz Age. And because of the frog there’ll be some action too in the bayous: yep, Disney is going to bring its magic to a swamp!
:)
We may have a look to Surrogates, an upcoming sci-fi movie directed by Jonathan Mostow and starring Bruce Willis, thanks to this featurette that found its way online:
Synopsis / Plot:
“In the near future, humans live in isolation and only interact through remote-controlled artificial bodies that serve as surrogates. When several surrogates are murdered, a cop (Bruce Willis) investigates the crimes through his own surrogate. The investigation forces the cop to bring his human form out of isolation and unravel a conspiracy behind the crimes.”
Cast:
– Bruce Willis as Agent Greer, a cop who investigates the murder of others’ surrogates
– Radha Mitchell as Agent Peters, the cop’s partner
– Rosamund Pike as Maggie Greer, the cop’s wife
– Ving Rhames as The Prophet, a cult figure who disdains surrogates and plans an uprising
– Boris Kodjoe as Anthony Stone
– Jack Noseworthy as Strickland
– James Francis Ginty as Dr. Lionel Canter
I think this movie will somewhat have the feel of Minority Report… Well not brand new, but I can but welcome a sci-fi movie, even more if it is starring Bruce Willis in the lead role!
The movie Surrogates will hit theaters on September 25, 2009.

Thanks to the Disney Channel we may enjoy the movie trailer of The Princess and The Frog, the latest hand-drawn animated movie by Walt Disney Pictures, earlier than expected:
The Princess and The Frog Trailer
After 75 years of Magic
Walt Disney Pictures brings a classic tale to life!
Plot:
“A fairy tale centered on a young girl named Princess Tiana who lives in New Orleans’ French Quarter during the Jazz Age”
What a lovely a twist to this classic tale: the princess transforms into a frog after kissing the batracian!
But I still can’t say that I’m conquered by this animated movie… Maybe entertaining for my kids, bu not even sure about that… Well I suppose it’s one those movies that parents will force upon their children out of nostalgia… I don’t think this film deserves more a direct to dvd release…
:-)
A poster and a banner of the Expendables, Sylvester Stallone’s upcoming action movie, has been unveiled. And we may learn about the motto of this dream team of mercenaries, which is Semper Fight:

A new official poster of Rob Zombie’s H2 movie has been unveiled:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
Plot:
“Laurie Strode struggles to come to terms with her brother Michael’s deadly return to Haddonfield, Illinois; meanwhile, Michael prepares for another reunion with his sister.”
I pity Michael Myers who can’t be freed of his obsession… Poor evil Mike!
;-P
In Terminator 4 Anton Yelchin is playing the role of Kyle Reese in Terminator 4. Kyle Reese is the resistant who will be sent to the past to protect John Connor’s mother (and is actually Connor’s father…). Skynet may want to kill him, but John Connor won’t let it happen:
What a weird situation for John Connor: having to protect a boy who is his father in the future, er, I mean in the past… er… confused!
;-P
Did I tell you that Eli Roth is a real basterd? Here’s the proof:
Inglourious Basterds Movie Trailer
Eli Roth plays as Sgt. Donnie Donowitz: “A baseball bat-swinging Nazi hunter” who is known as “The Bear Jew” among Nazis. Some of them seem to believe that Donowitz is in fact, a vengeful golem!
;-P
In Night at the Museum Battle of the Smithsonian Ben Stiller has not only to deal with a megalomaniac pharaoh but also with crazy scientists:
Bring your kids to go watch Night at the Museum 2 for Memorial Day, on May 22, 2009.

Thanks to Firstshowing we may take a look to some splendid pictures of Agora, the upcoming drama movie set in Roman Egyt, 391 A.D., starring Rachel Weisz as Hypatia the philosopher and Max Minghella as her Christian slave:

Agora is quite impressive knowing that they used a real set especially built on Malta to recreate Alexandria, and not the product of CGI tricks.
By the way in case you’re wondering: the Agora (or forum in their Roman equivalent) was an open place of assembly in ancient Greek city-states. We may still find the word as etymon of the word agoraphobia, the fear of critical public situations.
:)
More clips of Terminator 4, aka Terminator Salvation, have popped up online through Collider.
