Director Richard Eyre worked on The Other Man, a drama movie directed by Richard Eyre and starring Liam Neeson, Antonio Banderas and Laura Linney. Here below an international poster of The Other Man:

It is mainly a movie about adultery and bitterness… So no wonder that the early buzz around the movie isn’t that great so far, and the movie does not sound really fun indeed…

Judging from this Terminator 4 movie trailer, the new Terminator movie looks as dark as Director McG and Christian Bale (who plays the role of John Connor) promised us. The movie Terminator Salvation is gonna blow us all away!

The Proposal is an upcoming romantic comedy movie directed by Anne Fletcher. It is starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. It should be released on June 12, 2009.
THE PROPOSAL
This is Andrew
He is very late
Margaret is Andrew’s boss
Margaret has a problem
Andrew is the solution
This Summer
Plot:
“Sandra Bullock stars as a book editor, who forces her assistant Ryan Reynolds to marry her in order to avoid being deported to Canada. When the government investigates, she and her assistant are forced to spend the weekend with his parents in order to sell the lie.” (Source: Wikipedia)
Two likable actors in a nice combination of comedy and romance: The Proposal sounds good! It will be a nice Summer 2009 movie.
One thing though: could daily-life dominatrices be trendy in Hollywood? The movie New In Town is also about a woman of power who falls in love with a ‘lower-class’ man!
No need to threat me to make a proposal to Sandra Bullock! First, would just have to convince my wife that bigamy isn’t a big deal… Er, finally, sorry Sandra Bullock, my wife would never accept it,.. So sad, but really can’t make the proposal…
;-P
Here the first official poster of Little Ashes, a movie dealing with the strange relation the surrealist painter Dali (Robert Pattinson) had with his male friend Lorca (Javier Beltran):
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.) LITTLE ASHES
Three rebels willing to take on the world.
Two lovers risking it all.
One story, untold until now.
Take Brokeback Mountain and transpose the movie to Spain in the first half of the 20th century and replace the cow boys by Spanish artists, namely Dali the painter and Lorca the poet: that’s a fair description of the movie Little Ashes!
;-P
Besides Marley the dog, the movie Marley and Me is starring Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson. The labrador retriever of this story is cute for sure, but God knows he is also completely crazy!
There are some quite funny movie titles from time to time. That’s the case case with Lesbian Vampire Killers, a UK movie mixing action, comedy, and horror. The film is directed by Phil Claydon and is starring James Corden and Mathew Horne.
Here below the first movie poster of Lesbian Vampire Killers:
Plot:
“Their women having been enslaved by the local pack of lesbian vampires thanks to an ancient curse, the remaining menfolk of a rural Welsh town send two hapless young lads out onto the moors as a sacrifice.” (Source: IMDb)
I doubt such a great poster would be allowed by the MPAA in the USA though: should send their representatives to a European nudist beach!
The movie should be released on March 29, 2009 in the UK. Unfortunately, no US release planned yet. But with such a creative title and such a funny plot we may hope that the movie Lesbian Vampire Killers will hit USA’s shore soon!

The Other Man is an upcoming drama movie directed by Richard Eyre based on a short story by German writer Bernhard Schlink. The plot of The Other Man revolves around a cuckold who tries to understand why and with who his wife deceived him. The film is starring Liam Neeson, Antonio Banderas, and Laura Linney, respectively as the husband, the other man, and the unfaithful wife. There is no official release date yet for the Other Man.
Here below a teaser clip of The Other Man that leaked online a few days ago:
The Other Man
Plot;
“Peter (Liam Neeson), the CEO of a computer software company, has been married to Lisa (Laura Linney), a successful shoe designer, for well over 20 years. Her work means frequent travel, but their marriage seems happy, and they have a grown up daughter, Abigail (Romola Garai). Missing his wife, Peter discovers that she has been receiving emails and messages from a man he never knew existed.
Against Abigail’s advice, feeling betrayed and vengeful, Peter flies to Milan to find out the truth about the mysterious other man, Ralph (Antonio Banderas). As Peter begins to unravel his wife’s secret, the focus shifts to a suspenseful cat and mouse relationship between the two men.” (Source: BFI)
The reviews of The Other man are rather negative so far: Antonio Banderas is said to play his part well, but the early buzz isn’t great concerning Liam Neeson in the role of the cuckold and Laura Linney as his deceitful wife…
I would not have thought of Liam Neeson in such a role indeed: he looks like a man of action not like a jealous and bitter husband… If you want to enjoy a movie with Liam Neeson I’d rather recommend the movie Taken!

In Defiance two brothers (Daniel Craig and Liev Schreiber) decide, against all odds, to protect a group of Jew refugees from the Nazi persecution during World War II.
The Sci-Fi Movie Page (here) talked to scriptwriter-producer Frank Spotnitz and get some details about a possible X-Files 3. Frank Spotnitz still wants a third opus in the X-Files movie series even if the X-Files 2 didn’t perform as well as expected. He has an excuse out of his hat to explain the poor results of the second film:
“[the movie] opened a week after ‘The Dark Knight’ and got mowed down by it. No one knew what a huge historical event it would be.”
Frank Spotnitz
I’d rather say that the absence of aliens has more to do with it than Batman though… And 20th Century Fox isn’t in a hurry to green light X-Files…
But Frank Spotnitz states that did well overseas and that he expects it do well on DVD. So he is adamant at making a third movie with Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) that he may go alone to produce it. He’s already thinking about a potential plot for X-Files 3:
“As you know the date of December 2012 is an important one in ‘The X-Files,’ and I’d like to focus on that.”
Frank Spotnitz
If I may give an advice to Frank Spotnitz he should focus on aliens in the movie X-Files 3 and maybe also develop what happened to Scully’s toddler. It would make a really great X-Files 3 movie!

Chris Evans, Dakota Fanning, and Camilla Belle are endowed with special abilities in the movie Push, a science-fiction film directed by Paul McGuigan. Below the latest international trailer of Push:
“My understanding is that they know that they’ve got a story that a lot of people want to see, because of the book. […] And, the people that read the book, which are many, were very moved by it and by this relationship between this boy and this man, in particular, in that setting. And, I think that they are really aware of the fact that they’ve got one chance to do it, and if there’s any little things that they still want to work on a little more, to get it just right, whether it’s the music –I don’t know what it is — a variety of things, they want to do it right. And, if you rush it out before you feel in good conscience it’s there … So, I am disappointed. I wanted to see it. I want to see how it is.”
Viggo Mortensen
So a theatrical release of The Road is still on the agenda (no direct to DVD for The Road like some may think). The delay is a bit annoying, but once can understand that the production company does no want to miss the high expectations of the fans of Cormac McCarthy’s novel.
