John Cusack went to Asia for Shanghai, an upcoming period movie directed by Mikael Hafstrom. Back to the Western world he made a stop in London in June with the cast of Shanghai for a conference (was also to shoot a few scenes). And back from Asia the guy is rather quiet … Is he under the soothing influence of Confucianism or is he just blase? Check below you’ll see by yourself:

Shanghai Movie With John Cusack

They could have made an effort for this promotional event… They don’t really sale the movie… I suppose John Cusack is better on screen than in real life…
;-P

Lionsgate tries to repair the harm done with the first trailer of the Spirit by releasing a new tamed version. This second trailer of the spirit put more emphasis on action than weirdness. Here below The Spirit trailer 2:

The Spirit Second Trailer

For me the real hero of this movie is not the Spirit played by Gabriel Macht, nope: the real hero is the Octopus interpreted by Samuel L. Jackson. What an interesting villain!

I doubt this is the final trailer of the Spirit, so if by any chance some Lionsgate’s employee drops here I’d suggest for the next Spirit trailer to put emphasis on the numerous times the Spirit get laid!

A CGI animated Gatchaman movie is under production by Imagi Studios. Gatchaman is not a new team superhero. Actually two decades ago there were already around: a TV show was aired in the 1970’s and early 1980’s. Depending on where you were living you would have known the show as Battle of the Planets (UK) or G-Force (USA) before discovering its original Japanese name as Gatchaman.

Let’s watch the original Japanese opening of the manga TV animated series at:

Do You Remember Gatchman G Force?

The central theme of Gatchaman is that Earth resources are limited and have to be protected (from greedy aliens or from careless humans).

I think the show was quite in advance on its time for dealing with such concerns.

Under the direction of Sam Mendes, actors Viggo Mortensen and Kodi Smit-McPhee will be father and son in a perilous journey through a blasted post-apocalyptic world. It is said so bleak that it would make Mad Mad look like a kind-hearted Disney movie… Must be some exaggeration in this assertion though….
