Here below, thanks to Badtaste, an international Watchmen poster:
(Click on the quad poster to enlarge it.) WATCHMEN
This city is afraid of me. I’ve seen its true face.
The movie Watchmen, directed by Zack Snyder, is based on a comic book by writer Alan Moore (a grumpy old man who’s just disdainfully spitting on this marvelous movie adaptation) and illustrator Dave Gibbons (a good chap who did help Director Snyder). The story is set in an alternate 1985 where superheroes exist, tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union are at an all time high.

Carriers is an upcoming thriller horror movie written and directed the Pastor brothers (Alex Pastor and David Pastor). The movie follows four friends who try to get away from a worldwide flu pandemic that almost wiped out mankind in a very short time span. It is starring Lou Taylor Pucci, Chris Pine, Piper Perabo and Emily VanCamp.
Watch below the movie trailer of Carriers:
CARRIERS
Plot:
“Four friends fleeing a viral pandemic soon learn they are more dangerous than any virus.
A deadly virus has spread across the globe. Contagion is everywhere, no one is safe and no one can be trusted. Four young attractive people race through the back roads of the American West to the pounding beat of a vacation soundtrack. Their aim is to retreat to secluded utopian beach in the Gulf of Mexico, where they could peacefully wait out the pandemic and survive the apocalyptic disease. CARRIERS follow their getaway through a surreal and dangerous world where laws and rules no longer apply. Their plans take a grim turn when their car breaks down on an isolated road starting a chain of events that will seal the fate of each of them in an inexorable and horrifying voyage of hell through a western landscape populated by only the hideous dead or the twisted living. Their desperate retreat south turns into a deadly battle against infected children, homicidal doctors, crazed survivalists, rabid dogs, and, finally each other. The virus is the least of their problems as horrible choices must be made in the face of lost humanity.”
I’m both thrilled and horrified by this Carriers movie!
The premise of this post-apocalyptic thriller isn’t so farfetched: a deadly mutation of a bird flu in the near future is not so unlikely… And the new virus resulting from such a mutation could infect millions of people around the world, causing a flu pandemic worse than ever! Would be a bleak future…
I doubt that the carriers would have murderous thoughts like in the film though. But still, this is a hell of a movie! Can’t understand why the movie doesn’t have an official release date yet. Carriers deserves a theater release! Hope that Paramount vantage will really support the movie.
In the new world order there will be no saviors or survivors: there will be only carriers!

OBSESSED
All’s fair when love is war.
In the movie Obsessed Idris Elba is married to Beyonce Knowles. But his one-time mistress Ali Larter loves him madly, so madly that it transforms into an obsession! Too bad for Ali that Beyonce is no woman to let her husband go easily!

The Uninvited could be just one more remake of an Asian horror movie, but those girls are cute and I can but feel compelled to care for what happen to them in the Uninvited movie.

Ron Perlman is co-starring with Nicolas Cage in Season of the Witch, an upcoming fantasy drama movie directed by Dominic Sena. Here below a new picture of Ron Perlman in the role of Felson:
I suppose Felson (Ron Perlman) is helping Knight Lavey (Nicolas Cage) to transport to destination the girl accused of being a witch. Hope to get more information about this Season of the Witch movie soon.

The latest poster of UP, the upcoming animated movie by Disney Pixar, that you may see above is actually a follow up of the previous teaser poster of UP:
I suppose that Karl (the old man) and Russell (the chubby boy) will be seen landing in the jungle (like in the CES clip of UP) on the next movie poster of up.

Thanks to the new clip below of Transformers 2, aka Transformers Revenge of the Fallen, we get a better understanding of the Transformers 2 clips sent by Mark@Princeton a few months ago:
No need to worry for Sam (Shia Labeouf) who is in the car in the clip above: he was able to get rid of the sticky Transformer robot, but the Windshield has been damaged for good:
Do you you think that Sam Witwicky’s car insurance will cover this unexpected damage? Those decepticons are so careless!

A promotional clip has been released for Coraline, the upcoming movie adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s book. The writer is helping to the promotion of the movie. In the clip below he dwells on Koumpounophobia, the phobia of buttons:
“I often think that the greatest of human inventions is the humble button.”
Neil Gaiman
The story of Coraline is about a young girl who finds a secret door and discovers an alternate version of her life on the other side. On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to her real life and the people in it – only much better although they’ve got buttons instead of eyes… But when this seemingly perfect world turns dangerous, and her other parents (including her Other Mother voiced by Teri Hatcher) try to trap her forever, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness, determination and bravery to escape this increasingly perilous world – and save her family.

Roland Emmerich’s new disaster movie 2012 is pushed back from from July 10 to November 13. Sony distribution president Rory Bruer explains why the film is postponed:
“We’ve had such success with the James Bond films in November that we wanted a big tentpole film in that slot this year. We’ve got so many films in the summer that this is the perfect answer to that.”
Sony distribution president Rory Bruer
It will give you time to look for 2012 on Google if you didn’t have time to do it yet!

A telekinetic fight, with fighters able to use their mind to move and throw stuff around, should be really nasty. But in the movie Push fighters aren’t that wicked… This second clip of Push just show one more tame fight between Chris Evans and Neil Jackson who are both movers:
Well fortunately telekinesy is just a fantasy because I’m sure that some wicked minds would be much more efficient in using such an ability to harm others than they do in the movie…
