I’m not even gonna watch these three clips to be honest, I’m stoked for this already. Over time I’ve become more and more invested in this film, I’ve come to the point where I don’t actually wanna see anymore, I want to go into the film as open minded as possible. If you’re still not convinced, or your unlike me and you want to see more of the flick, check out the three clips below.
A bold new chapter in the Predator universe, Predators was shot on location under Rodriguez’s creative auspices at the filmmaker’s Austin-based Troublemaker Studios, and is directed by Nimród Antal. The film stars Adrien Brody as Royce, a mercenary who reluctantly leads a group of elite warriors who come to realize they’ve been brought together on an alien planet… as prey. With the exception of a disgraced physician, they are all cold-blooded killers – mercenaries, Yakuza, convicts, death squad members – human “predators” that are now being systemically hunted and eliminated by a new breed of alien Predators. In addition to Adrien Brody, the film stars Topher Grace, Alice Braga, and Laurence Fishburne. Co-starring are Walton Goggins, Danny Trejo, Oleg Taktarov and Mahershalalhashbaz Ali. Predators was written by Alex Litvak & Mike Finch based upon characters created by Jim Thomas & John Thomas. The producers are Robert Rodriguez and Elizabeth Avellàn.
Below is a new featurette from Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time, it showcases the lovely Gemma Arteton’s character Tamina. This could possibly be the first good video game based movie, the following film’s were terrible -Mortal Combat, Tomb Raider, Doom, Super Mario Bros and especially Street Fighter, ESPECIALLY Street Fighter!!!! Until watching Street Fighter at the tender age of 8 I never thought you could possibly make a film so bad, my child like innocence was taken from me by that film, it was a complete and utter turd. Fingers crossed this will be good, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is released in the UK 21st May and also stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Sir Ben Kinglsey, Toby Kebbell and Alfred Molia. Check out my interview with Gemma Arterton here.
I like the look of this, it looks real intense, I’ve always been a sucker for crime thrillers, selling them to me is pretty easy, the poster alone pretty much got me. Brooklyn’s Finest is the new film from Antoine Fuqua, director of Training Day, Shooter & King Arthur so expect a lot of kickassery! Brooklyn’s Finest has a first rate ensemble cast in Richard Gere, Don Cheadle, Ethan Hawke, Wesley Snipes, Lili Taylor, Ellen Barkin, Will Patton, Michael K Williams (Omar in The Wire………’OMAR’S COMING’) and Vincent D’Onofrio.

Below are some new clips from Clint Eastwood’s upcoming film – Invictus, one of the favorite’s for this years Best Picture at the Oscar’s (Clint Eastwood always seems to be a favorite of the Academy along with George Clooney). Invictus stars Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela and Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar the South African Rugby team captain. At the National Board Of Review Clint Eastwood was awarded the best director for Invictus while Morgan Freeman and George Clooney split the best actor award.
Based on the book by John Carlin Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Changed a Nation, Invictus is the story of South Africa’s bid to host the Rugby World Cup in 1995, and then the home team’s campaign in the competition to win the trophy (if you know your stuff they beat New Zealand 15-12 in the final). The film is set just a few short years after the end of apartheid, Mandela’s release from prison and election as President, at the time and still to an extent now the country was deeply and bitterly divided, which threatened at times to scupper the campaign. The trailer should be released within the next two weeks
Invictus is in UK cinemas February 5, 2010, and in the US December 11th just in time for Oscar season.
I haven’t seen this yet, I’m looking forward to it, reviews have been mixed, but I don’t always take into account of what critics say, they’re a miserable lot, you know what they say, opinions are like arseholes, so are many critics ! The Descent fits itself comfortably in my top 3 horror films of the last decade, if this is half as good I will be satisfied. I really do hope this is not just a cash in sequel which in the past has been a trend with Horror franchises
Above is the new poster for Peter Jackson’s (Lord Of The Rings, Braindead, King Kong) highly anticipated film ‘The Lovely Bones’ which is based on the critically acclaimed novel of the same by Alice Sebold. Like a donut I missed the screening of the film due to the London Underground (thanks!!!!) I attended the press conference though, I’m gonna type that up in the next few days. The film is getting great feedback from those who have seen it and has been talked about a possible Oscar contender all year. Check out two new clips from the film below.
Based on the critically acclaimed best-selling novel by Alice Sebold, and directed by Oscar® winner Peter Jackson from a screenplay by Jackson & Fran Walsh & Philippa Boyens, “The Lovely Bones” centers on a young girl who has been murdered and watches over her family – and her killer – from heaven. She must weigh her desire for vengeance against her desire for her family to heal. Oscar® nominee Mark Wahlberg and Oscar® winners Rachel Weisz and Susan Sarandon star along with Stanley Tucci, Michael Imperioli and Oscar® nominee Saoirse Ronan.
