Odin is the father of the mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and the cunning Loki (Tom Hiddleston). Odin is the almighty God among the Gods, but he can’t figure out how to bring peace between his two sons… But as almighty as he is, Odin is an old chap: the Norse god needs to hibernate from time to time… Time that Loki use to build ne conspiracies and to torment his brother… Yep, even Gods got family problems!

Men in Black III

Men in Black IIIScriptwriter Etan Cohen (who once brought us Tropic Thunder, Idiocracy) has been hired by Sony to pen the screenplay of Men In Black 3.

Men In Black 3 Movie

So, even if it hasn’t been confirmed yet that Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are reprising their roles, we’re still one step closer from the production MiB3.

Any suggestion for Ethan Cohen about the plot of Men in Black 3?
;-P

Sin City 2 Movie

Sin City 2 Movie - Sin City Movie SequelThe first Sin City movie has become cult and fans have been yearning for a Sin City movie sequel.

This new sequel would be based on an original script written by Frank Miller and, like for the first movie, it would be co-directed by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez.

Planet 51 Pictures

Planet 51A new series of pictures of Planet 51 has been released by Ilion Animation:

Planet 51 Trailer

(Click on a picture to enlarge it.)


Plot:
“American astronaut Captain Charles ‘Chuck’ Baker lands on Planet 51 thinking he’s the first person to step foot on it. To his surprise, he finds that this planet is inhabited by little green people who are happily living in a white picket fence world, and whose only fear is that it will be overrun by alien invaders…like Chuck!”

This alien civilization has a striking resemblance with ours in the early 1950’s: maybe Chuck could enlighten them about Rock ‘n’ Roll to improve his situation…
;-P

Paranormal Activity 2 Movie

Paranormal Activity 2 MovieThe first Paranormal Activity movie directed by Oren Peli may have been filmed on low budget, officially with only $15,000. But it’s been a huge success. And Paramount is damn glad they picked the rights. Now it looks like they want to start a franchise. A movie sequel to Paranormal Activity seems to be in the air, yep we can get ready for Paranormal Activity 2:


PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 2

Paramount 's Brad Grey

“We have the rights on a worldwide basis to do Paranormal 2 and we’re looking to see if that makes some sense.”

Brad Grey, CEO of Paramount Pictures

I guess he doesn’t want to look like a shark, but it definitely makes sense for the company: you invest a few bucks and you’re paid back millions. So I have no doubt that they’re going to produce Paranormal Activity 2.

Not sure what would be the basis of Paranormal Activity 2 though: another random couple or family haunted by some evil spirit? What would you suggest for Paranormal Activity 2?
:)

Daybreakers Movie

Two new stills from Daybreakers, the upcoming sci-fi vampire movie, have been released by Lionsgate:

Plot:
“In 2019, a plague transforms the world’s population into vampires. With fewer humans to provide blood, the vampires seek to farm the remaining humans and to find a way to continue their existence. A secret team of vampires uncover a way that would rescue the human race. While, at the same time, a group of surviving humans wish to repopulate the species and survive.”

Will see if Willem Dafoe is a friend or a foe of mankind in the movie Daybreakers!
;-P

Rocky 7 Movie

Rocky 7 MovieThe boxer Rocky Balboa came out of retirement in Rocky 6, and it seems he doesn’t want go back to his peaceful life as restaurant owner. Sylvester Stallone told indeed that he would like to make Rocky 7! Legends never die, but time is catching up with Sylvester Stallone… I know he is still fit, but I’m not sure that over-extending the Rocky franchise is for the best…

More details at: Rocky 7 Movie Trailer

Anyway, here’s what Sylvester Stallone said about the movie Rocky 7:

“I know I’ll probably make a fool of myself if I make another Rocky film after turning 60. Even my wife says, ‘Don’t do it. You’re embarrassing the kids’. But I told her, ‘If I don’t try I’ll be a really unhappy man’.
[..]
You have to do it. Artists like me have to go through the dark over and over again.
[…]
When I was 21 years old and at drama school, my teacher said to me, ‘If you ever put your head out there, thousands of people will try to cut it off, but that’s exactly what you need to do as an artist.'”

Sylvester Stallone

Will Rocky Balboa go sci-fi and use some rejuvenation process based on stem cells so he could compete again? Or is he just going to train a young heir?

I’m not much interested in watching Rocky 7, but I must admit I’m curious how it’s gonna turn out!
:)

Christmas Carol Pictures

Christmas CarolTake a look to those high-res pictures of A Christmas Carol, the upcoming animated movie directed by Robert Zemeckis and withe voice of Jim Carrey as the old Scrooge:

(Click on a picture to enlarge it.)

Some of those pictures of A Christmas Carol make me think of the uncanny valley… The uncanny valley hypothesis holds that when robots and other facsimiles of humans (pictures, animation or else) look and act almost like actual humans, it causes a response of revulsion among human observers. They did put a lot of effort to make those characters look real, can’t really pinpoint it, but there is something missing…

David Duchovny X-Files 3

X-Files 3 MovieDavid Duchovny has been talking about the possible plot of the X-Files 3:

X-Files 3 Movie

“As far as the X-Files movie I’d like to do next, if we get a chance to do it, would be a return to the heart and soul of the mythology, which is the alien-oriented conspiracy. I think it’s natural for The X-Files to have another movie in 2012, so we’ll see if we get to do it.”

Actor David Duchovny

So he’s confirming what Director and Scriptwriter Frank Spotnitz said. So yes we can be confident that the aliens and the conspiracy will be the central theme of the movie X-Files 3. And I think they’re going to release it in 2012 so to stick to the series mythology. All in all, that’s good news!
