World War Z - Trailer
Posted by

Z-Nami
This year in New England we had a fare share of mother nature's anger: a 4.0 Earthquake, Hurricane Sandy and the recent Nor'easter. Winter hasn't even come yet! But it seems as though next year everyone will be feeling mother nature's wrath with a Zombie Tsunami. A "Z-Nami" if you will. You'll understand what I'm talking about after watching the trailer below. Actually, I'm not sure if the undead in the World War Z movie is a man-made disaster or a natural phenomenon.I don't think I'll be watching World War Z based on the trailer. Most likely I'll watch it on video because I did have a fun time watching this awful trailer. I couldn't stop laughing. I don't mind movies veering from the original source. I don't mind fast Zombies but World War Z the movie just looks terrible. World War Z (an extension to the Zombie Survival Guide) is based on one of my favorite books written by Mel Brooks' son, Max Brooks. The book is social commentary on how the world can be brought down by slow and dumb zombies because of political unrest, weak economic structures, stubborn pride and vapid practices. The book is not about ONE man on a mission to save the world. It actually follows a journalist who travels the world interviewing people post Zombie War. I also recommend the audio book version. World War Z's audio book features a couple of stories that's not told in the book. It also features great voice acting by: Max Brooks, Alan Alda, Henry Rollins and Mark Hamill. Mark Hamill plays a veteran of the Zombie War and does an awesome job especially in the retelling of "the Battle of Yonkers." For the people whom had read the book. You might be wondering, "what were they thinking?" Well, here's your answer from Entertainment Weekly:
Visual effects supervisor John Nelson (Iron Man) said World War Z’s zombies lean more toward sci-fi transformation victims rather than supernatural resurrection subjects. That led to a lot of research into animal behavior, especially for creatures under the amok-time sway of predator appetite or spawning urge.
“They are like predatory animals that can’t control themselves,” Nelson said. “I worked with tigers [while shooting Gladiator], and if you watch them when a horse goes by they go batty, even if they know they can’t reach it. When Zs see humans they do same thing, they activate. They launch themselves.” Here's the link to the Entertainment Weekly article: Brad Pitt amid the panic of 'World War Z,' and why its zombies are more 'predatory' than plodding Maybe these more science-rific tidal wave of zombies should go against the Sharknado. I'd go to the theaters for "that" movie! |

Prometheus: Happy Birthday Joel!
Posted by

I thought Prometheus' first David 8 promo video was creepy (Prometheus: More Promos!). This one gave me goosebumps. Check out Fassbender's David 8 crying without emotion at 1:20. No wait, that's not David! It's Joel McHale of The Soap and Community! Well, it's still creepy when Joel cries without emotion at 1:20:
(Parody of Prometheus: Happy Birthday David!)
What is Prometheus' flaw? Why do so many critics not like it? The biggest complaint is that it's like the TV show Lost. It introduces a lot of ideas and opens up a lot of mysteries but fails to answer them at the end of the film. In any case, I'm still super excited about Prometheus. I will be watching it this coming Friday (June 8, 2012) at the IMAX 3D. I know I will at least like the art direction and the cinematography... and Michael Fassbender... and Charlize Theron... and Idris Elba... and Noomi Rapace... There's a TV spot with TIme Magazine calling Promethues "The most anticipated event of the summer." I have to disagree with that one. What about The Dark Knight Rises? That's been anticipated since the release of The Dark Knight. No one cared for Prometheus at first and some people still thinks it's superfluous. Also, it's not summer yet! I guess Times Magazine is more excited than I am, they even forgot which season we're in. |

Prometheus: More Promos!
Posted by

| More Prometheus promos! I'm getting super excited for this next installment in the Alien series. After watching all these trailers and comparing the designs to the art found on the Specials Disc in the Alien Quadrilogy Set, it seems as though modern special effects technology has caught up to HR Geiger's vision. Please Prometheus don't suck! First, we have the UK version of the full trailer that came out this weekend: Then, we got a tie in to the original Alien movie with Guy Pearce: Next, we have a Michael Fassbender being built: |

Prometheus Full Trailer
Posted by
GroggyBot
| The full trailer for Prometheus is out and it reveals a bit of the plot. We find out that the crew of the Prometheus ends up on the "Space Jockey" planet because of an interstellar invitation. These invitations never end up being a friendly hang out of drunken Wii Tournaments. They tend to be as chummy as a Hannibal Lecter dinner invitation. Wait... didn't Ridley Scott direct Hannibal? Truth be told, if there was a real interstellar invitation, I'd want to be on that first expedition. I'm loving the HR Geiger imagery in the Prometheus trailers. |

The FP Trailer
Posted by
GroggyBot
WHAAAAAAAAAAT???!!!!!!!! This...is... a... real... movie! The FP on IMDB The FP on Ain't It Cool News I guess I didn't expect the unexpected. UPDATE: Brandon Trost, one of the directors, did cinematography for Crank: High Voltage. The other director is Jason Trost, Brandon's brother. He also plays JTro in The FP. They are associated with Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, directors of Crank and Crank: High Voltage. Why is this interesting? Take a look at the way they filmed Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance: THIS is why I want to watch the second Ghost Rider movie. The story can be crap and the movie can be a load of stinky cheese but, I know I will at least have fun and appreciate the filming technique. I am pretty sure that The FP was not meant to be taken seriously. Jason Trost is a big fan of the Dance Dance Revolution games and The FP was actually done as a short movie back in 2007. For insight on the filming of Crank and Crank: High Voltage check out this very entertaining Podcast: Crank: Director's Edition |

Prometheus International Trailer and Rumor
Posted by
GroggyBot
| As far back as the mid 80's there were rumors that Blade Runner took place in the Alien universe. The off planet colonization the Replicants were talking about could be the same as the ones being infected by the Xenomorphs. Recently, this rumor has resurfaced since the prequel to Alien (Prometheus) is coming out soon and, the side-story/prequel to Blade Runner is in production. But according to an article on the Film School Rejects website, the producers of Prometheus and the next Blade Runner are denying the connection: Producers Deny ‘Blade Runner’ Will Be ‘Alien’ Prequel Won't it be cool though? What DID Roy Batty experience to inspire the "Tears in rain" soliloquy? "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. [pause] Time to die." Was Bishop a Replicant? Oh right! I almost forgot the point of this post. There is an international trailer for Prometheus with some new footage: by addictomovie |

Prometheus Trailer
Posted by

I got to admit, I was tentative when I first heard about a prequel to the Alien Series. I still enjoyed the hell out of Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection despite their problems. Not so much the The Alien vs. Predator movies. They were pretty bad. After hearing that Ridley Scott will be directing the prequel, I was still iffy about the idea. His last few movies since American Gangster were not that good. But the recently released trailer for Prometheus got me excited. I take back all my complaints about Prometheus' trailers for the official trailer. I need to save up money for all these great movies coming out in 2012. Prometheus might still be bad but, I'm sold by the imagery in the trailer. Prometheus also stars a couple of actors whom I like:
What is that noise in the background? Is that the Space Jockey to the far right at 0:44?! Does the Prometheus trailer look familiar? |

| WB hunted down all the IMAX Dark Knight Rises 6min Prologue videos but, they did release an official version of the 2nd trailer which was attached to Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. You can find it on youtube and won't have to go watch Sherlock Holmes if you don't want to. Hearing from those who did watch it, they had a fun time. "Holmes for the Holidays" anyone? |

Happy 10th Lord of the Rings!

| 10 years ago today on December 19, 2001, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring was released in theaters. Earlier this year, back in June, Fathom Events had a viewing of the extended version of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy to commemorate the 10th anniversary. Peter Jackson introduced each movie with some insights of the technical aspects along with some anecdotes. He also talked a bit about the upcoming The Hobbit movie. Fellowship of the Ring was screened on June 7th. The Two Towers was June 14th. Return of the King was June 21st. Then finally, the extended version on blu-ray was released on June 28, 2011. Peter Jackson is in the process of making The Hobbit and you can follow his progress on facebook or on TheOneRing.net. How will you be celebrating the 10th anniversary of The Lord of the Rings? I'll be rewatching the extended version on blu-ray sometime this week. |
