Hamlet 2 Rock Me Sexy Jesus sing along

Friday, September 12th, 2008

GO SEE HAMLET 2!!!!!!! I laughed, I cried, it became a part of me. Seriously the funniest movie I’ve seen in ages. Simultaneously smart and dumb so you can bring all your friends and family regardless of intelligence or breeding.

A few songs from the show within the movie…

Raped in the Face
Someone Saved My Life Tonight

and my personal favorite You’re as Gay as the Day is Long

  • Watchmen trial set for January 6

    Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

    Who watches the Watchmen? Noone, if 20th Century Fox has anything to say about it. They want a piece of the pie or they may shut down the planned March 6th release of the epic comic book movie based on the most popular graphic novel in comic book history. Fox alleges alleges that they retained distribution rights to the graphic novel through a 1991 claim. The judge has refused a motion to dismiss and a trial date has been set for January 6th.

    Rorsharch

    A federal court in Los Angeles on Monday refused to dismiss the Fox lawsuit — meaning Fox can proceed with an attempt to shut down Snyder’s movie in court. The ruling offered no comment on the quality of Fox’s case or its potential for success, but clearly the judge found enough merit in the rights claim to let Fox’s lawyers take it up a notch.

    Most of the buzz suggests that Fox will most likely keep up the pressure until a settlement is made that allows Warner Brothers to distribute The Watchmen and rewards Fox with some of the profits.

    Zack and Miri Make a Porno was slapped with a NC17 rating before Kevin Smith appealed the ruling and was able to get an R rating without editing or cutting anything! Victory!

    Dark Knight breaks $500 Million

    Sunday, August 31st, 2008

    The Dark Knight

    After a mere 45 days in theaters The Dark Knight has grossed over 500 Million dollars, becoming only the 2nd movie to do so. And it did it in half the time it took Titanic (which took over 3 months to earn that much)! Titanic grossed 601 Million and Warner Brothers execs say they expect The Dark Knight to finish around $530 Million, but wouldn’t be surprised by $550 Million. OK everyone go see it ONE more time (on IMAX)! Lets crush the Titanic record!

  • Announced, Planned and Projected DCU films!

    Saturday, August 30th, 2008

    Newsarama has a great article detailing all the DCU comic book movie projects either in production or serious consideration… Here’s some highlights - check the link for the rest. Some of these are more confirmed and some are still just a step past wishful thinking. But either way the next few years should be rife with silver screen superhero spandex.

    A Dark Knight Sequel a no-brainer, but if you want a talented actress who is also one fine cougar for Catwoman, I’d suggest Annette Bening over Cher (who frightens me - I still have flashbacks of that video with her in the thong on a battleship - she can’t Turn Back Time far enough to step into Selina’s shoes).

    Watchmen - legal troubles may force WB to pay out some $$$ to FOX to make their March 09 release.

    Green Arrow - Green Arrow has to … escape from a Super Villain prison?. This story doesn’t seem to fit the character and I think this would be better fit for another hero. It wasn’t created with Ollie Queen in mind and it shows. I think it could work for Nightwing though. Bats and friends go undercover all the time.

    Green Lantern - the team describes a “respectful approach to the character” and a “loving approach to the entire mythos” - sounds good to me - lets hope they know what they are talking about and read a few issues first. And though I love his work, NO JACK BLACK.

    Shazam- delayed after the writers strike, this may be getting on track again.

    Justice League- According to the Wall Street Journal, DC has finally decided to do 4 solo flicks FIRST and build up to the JLA movie! YAY!!!!! Hmmm 4. Bats, Supes are the obvious choices… leaving GL and WW as the obvious FX-laden choices.

    Wonder Woman- I want to see it, hope they do it right, but I’d be surprised if they give Diana her due. She should be the next movie. They did Superman and Batman, she is the last third of the DCU Trinity. IT’S HER TURN!

    The Flash - Expected to feature speedster Wally West, but no news on any scripts.

    Teen Titans- A Perez/Wolfman era epic!!!!! Live action Judas Contract movie was originally announced in 2007, and producers described described Warner Bros. as “absolutely committed” to doing the movie. AWESOME!!!! Fingers crossed. That ranks right up there with the Dark Phoenix X-Men movie I WANTED to see (but I got X3 instead).

    Also mentioned were movies based on Jonah Hex, Deadman, Doom Patrol, Preacher, Y the Last Man, Ex Machina (Oh yeah!), Sandman and his darling goth sister Death.

    Friday, August 22nd, 2008

    After 2008’s billion dollar comic book summer, no one is surprised as Hollywood frantically pounds on the doors of every comic book writer with a filmable property. With the big screen success of his Wanted, Mark Millar’s new book, Kick-Ass is an ultra-violent no-brainer for someone looking to cash in on the trend. The independently financed production will be shooting in London and Toronto this fall with Aaron Johnson as Dave Lizewski, a teenager inspired to don a costume and fight crime despite the fact that he lives in the real world (our world… no superpowers). Lyndsy Fonseca (who you may recognize as Desperate Housewives’ Dylan Mayfair) has been cast as the longtime object of Dave’s affections, Katie Deauxma who mistakenly thinks Dave is her “gay best friend.” Sweet innocent-looking Chloe Moretz will become the savage, potty mouthed, ninja sword wielding 11 year old vigilante and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, a.k.a. McLovin will portray Red Mist, the angry teen son of a mobster who tries to unmask Kick-Ass.

    Aaron Johnson will be Dave Lizewski Lyndsy Fonseca will be Katie Deauxma Chloe Moretz will be a ninja sword wielding potty-mouthed 11 year old vigilante Christopher Mintz-Plasse will be Red Mist Nick Cage will be a cop
    Mark Millar's Kick-Ass

    As usual Nick Cage will play a cop. Any theories on why Hollywood keep casting Millar’s heroic blonds with brunettes? First toe-headed Wesley Gibson and now Dave Lizewski too. What’s up with that?

    I FINALLY found an embeddable version of the trailer for the animated Wonder Woman origin movie due out February 2008.

    I have one problem with it… The line SOME HEROES ARE MADE, THIS ONE WAS BORN is factually incorrect. Diana WAS made. Her “mother” Hippolyta literally sculpted the infant Diana from clay and the Olympian Gods gave her life.

    I;ve been wondering this for myself and I KNOW what the words mean. I think it may be a tough sell since I’d be willing to put money on the fact that a large percentage of the American movie-going public will not know what EITHER word means.

    Quantum is defined as: The smallest physically realizable unit of something. Solace is: Comfort or consolation in a time of distress. So basically someone is in distress and someone else shows as little support as possible.

    The only fault I found with Dark Knight was the a bit over the top Clint Eastwood style gruff whisper that Christian Bale uses for Batman’s speaking voice. Seems I wasn’t alone.

    Saturday, August 2nd, 2008

    2008 has been THE year for Summer comic book movies!

    According to figures on boxofficemojo.com, sometime on Friday, the combined box office might of the comic book-inspired The Dark Knight, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Wanted, and Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, eclipsed the $1 billion dollar mark for 2008, standing roughly at $1.01 billion.

    The Dark Knight Iron Man Wanted The Incredible Hulk Hellboy II

    I think we can safely say there will be a deluge of silver screen adaptions of more comic book properties from DC, Marvel and even independent publishers in the next few years. Here’s hoping DC can use the momentum from Dark knight and map out a feasible strategy to getting us a blockbuster-level Justice League of America movie in the next 10 years. First we need a well received Superman movie, then Flash, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman movies (with minor cameos for Martian Manhunter and Aquaman in one or two of those movies). Finally, you get the stars of those movies to do the JLA movie and you have a DC equivalent of what Marvel rolled out after Iron Man came out strong.

    Everything old is new again. Warner Brothers has released seven movie posters for The Watchmen. These are directly based upon a series of full page ads that DC Comics ran in their August 1986 issues to tease the then-upcoming 12 issue maxi-series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. Some are commenting that the staging of the drawing is incomplete in that there are small details in the drawings that are clues that foreshadow some important events of the story, but these details have been left out of the photos.

    Watchmen poster: Dr. Manhattan
    Watchmen Movie Poster: The Comedian Watchmen Movie Poster: Nite Owl Watchmen Movie Poster: Ozymandias
    Watchmen Movie Poster: Rorshach Watchmen Movie Poster: Silk Spectre Watchmen Movie Poster: Original Silk Spectre

    Here are 6 of DC Comics’ original house ads by Dave Gibbons to which the movie posters pay (apparently incomplete) homage.

    1986 DC House Ad: Dr. Manhattan 1986 DC House Ad: The Comedian 1986 DC House Ad: Nite Owl
