Damn impatient to watch the movie sequel to Iron Man. Don’t understand why they aren’t releasing the footage of Iron Man 2 shown at Comic Con for us all to enjoy it…

A first official picture of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger in the upcoming movie remake A Nightmare on Elm Street:

Here’s a closer look which gives a better idea of Freddy Krueger’s face:

Well seems like the remake does respect the traditional appearance of the crazy Freddy.

At long last but not least we may have a first look at the whole Volturi cast from Twilight New Moon, aka Twilight 2:

New Moon Volturi

(Click on the picture to enlarge it.)
The Volturi:
– British actor Michael Sheen as Aro, the most powerful Volturi leader
– Christopher Heyerdahl as Marcus, a Volturi leader
– Jamie Campbell-Bower as Caius, a Volturi leader
– Dakota Fanning as Jane, a nasty Volturi Guard
– Cameron Bright as Alec, a Volturi Guard who is Jane’s twin brother

In the universe of Twilight, the Volturi are like law enforcers among the Vampires: they are much respected, and even feared because of their mind control tricks

Some may have been worried when learning that Dakota Fanning would play Jane, but I think there is reason to be optimistic and that she will be true to the role she got: just look at her as Jane! She’s almost like a real vampire. Actually all members of the Volturi look great. There is no denying that Director Chris Weitz is bringing the Twilight movie series to a higher level: Twilight New Moon is no movie for kiddies.
:)

Actor Chris Hemsworth, who played James T. Kirk’s father in the last Star Trek movie, the one who sacrifice himself to save his familly, has been casted as the mighty Thor in the upcoming Thor movie which is set for a release in May 2011. We also know that Tom Hiddleston is going to play the role of Loki, Thor’s brother and nemesis:

Tom Hiddleston as Loki

Those two actors are not really well known. That’s maybe why Director Kenneth Branagh chose them: he prefers to avoid the movie to be get over hyped because of famous names: doing so, the public will judge the movie for what it is and according to what they were expecting.

From what I heard the movie Thor won’t get lost in supernatural Asgard in order to fit in the current mold of realism set by earlier movies based on Marvel’s characters.
:)

Ryan Reynolds, who’s already playing the role of Marvel’s Deapool, has been selected by Warner Bros to play as DC Comic’s Green Lantern in the upcoming movie dedicated to the green-ring hero.The news came as a surprise to all. But well, Ryan Reynolds is a good actor, and most agree that he’s a quite good choice.

Update: here’s the first official picture of Ryan Reynolds as the Green Lantern:

Here’s an earlier fan-art rendition of Ryan Reynolds in the Green Lantern’s outfit:

This announcement of the lead actor indicates that the story of this Green Lantern movie will revolve around Hal Jordan, the original Caucasian Green Lantern. So we are likely to see the battle between Legion and Abin Sur, Abin Sur’s crash landing on Earth, as well as the choosing of Hal Jordan.

I wonder if Ryan Reynolds as the Green Lantern is going to recite the oath with pride or with a deadpoolesque tongue in cheek:

In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil’s might,
Beware my power… Green Lantern’s light!

Hal Jordan/All Current Lanterns

Anyway Director Martin Campbell will have a significant budget ($150 million) to blow us away with the the movie Green Lantern, so let’s hope it will be awesome.
:)

It’s been announced, via Variety, that Director David Hackl (who started off as a production designer for Saw 2, Saw 3 and Saw 4, before directing Saw 5) will return for Saw 7.

Saw 7 David Hackl

Not real clue why Lionsgate isn’t keeping Kevin Greutert (who’s directing Saw 6). But David Hackl did bring us a hit with Saw 5. So I won’t comlain about him coming back to helm the movie Saw 7.

By the way, Saw VII will start production in January 2010 for a release in October 2010.

DC Comic anti-hero Jonah Hex is getting his own movie under the direction of Jimmy Hayward. In the lead role, Josh Brolin, and John Malkovich as his nemesis who has some smattering of Voodoo, and let’s not forget the beautiful Megan Fox as Jonah Hex’s love interest:

Megan Fox is damn sexy in her lovely outfit. I’d love to see her dancing French can-can in the movie Jonah Hex.

There is a party for Bella’s 18th birthday at the Cullens’ house, but she clumsily cut herself and blood is spilled in front of the vampire family… Jasper, overwhelmed by his blood hunger, springs to attack her, but fortunately the other vampires are still behaving and hinder Jasper from having a blood fest on Bella’s body. Here some pictures from the New Moon birthday party:

This sad event prompt the Cullens to leave Forks for Bella’s safety. So they get away from the city, leaving Bella heartbroke and lonely… But Jacob understands there is here an opportunity to seize:

We may think that one man’s loss is another man’s gain… But thanks to the complexity of love (and this is no spoiler), Bella and Edward shall find each other again at the end of the movie New Moon.

Two beautiful photos of Jake Gyllenhaal as Dastan and Gemma Arterton as Princess Tamina in the upcoming Prince of Persia The Sands of Time, aka PoP, SoT for the gamers, have shown up online:

I’d like to pin those pictures of Prince of Persia on my wall. Really nice shots! But because they look so good I worry about something… I’m afraid that Mike Newell’s Prince of Persia movie is going to be too sanitized… It’s too clean! I mean put some dirt on screen (do they need CGI nowadays for things and people to look dirty in movies?). Otherwise it’s gonna look fake…
;-P

We got a new series of character pictures for Twilight 2, aka New Moon. Besides Bella and Edward, there are pictures of other members of the Cullen-Hale family:

Bella (Kristen Stewart) does fit well in the family of her beloved Edward (Robert Pattinson).
:)

The official site of Fantastic Mr Fox has been launched (here), so we got a new series of pictures from the movie:

Fantastic Mr Fox is a stop motion movie, so there is lot of manual work behind those gorgeous pictures.

Some pictures of Avatar, a science-fiction movie directed by James Cameron and set to be released in December 2009:

Update: watch the trailer of Avatar:

AVATAR MOVIE TRAILER

Avatar Pictures

(Click on a picture to enlarge it.)

Plot:
“The story’s protagonist, Jake Sully, is an ex-Marine who was wounded and paralyzed from the waist down in combat on Earth. In order to participate in the Avatar program, which will give him a healthy body, Jake agrees to travel to Pandora, a lush rainforest environment filled with incredible life forms – some beautiful, many terrifying. Pandora is also the home to the Na’vi, a humanoid race that lives at what we consider to be a primate level, but they are actually much more evolved than humans. Ten feet tall and blue skinned, the Na’vi live harmoniously within their unspoiled world. But as humans encroach on Pandora in search of valuable minerals, Unobtanium, the Na’vi’s very existence is threatened – and their warrior abilities unleashed.

Jake has unwittingly been recruited to become part of this encroachment. Since humans are unable to breathe the air on Pandora, they have created genetically-bred human-Na’vi hybrids known as Avatars. The Avatars are living, breathing bodies in the real world, controlled by a human driver through a technology that links the driver’s mind to the Avatar body. On Pandora, through his Avatar body, Jake can be whole once again. Moreover, he falls in love with a young Na’vi woman, Neytiri, whose beauty is matched by her ferocity in battle.

As Jake slides deeper into becoming one of her clan, he finds himself caught between the military-industrial forces of Earth, and the Na’vi – forcing him to choose sides in an epic battle that will decide the fate of an entire world.”

Jake is kind of betraying his own race by siding with the Na’vi… Shouldn’t he think about mankind first? Well, better not to think too much about this, and let’s just enjoy the movie Avatar when it comes out!
:)

I’m not sure which one the scariest: the rotting clown or the little zombie girl? Make think I’d love to watch a movie titled The Little Zombie Girl. Anyway I’ll enjoy Zombieland, they did such a good job on make up!
