Patrick Dempsey Joins Transformers 3

From Entertainment Weekly, Paramount has confirmed the casting of Grey’s Anatomy actor, Patrick Dempsey, to be in Michael Bay’s Transformers 3. Demspey will be taking on the role of Mikaela Bane’s (Megan Fox) boss. His character also has alternative motives other than bossing around the brunette princess when he told BOL in an interview and translated, Transformers 3, in which I’ll play a character who is much “darker” than the others.” Hopefully with their intentions of “keeping mythology,” Dempsey will play mad scientist Dr. Arkeville who will help the Decepticons with their plans to dominate the universe. Transformers 3 is set to be released in July, 2011 with Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand, Ken Jeong, and Kevin Dunn.

Get Buried in this Trailer

The official trailer for Ryan Reynolds new thriller, Buried, was recently released attached to A Nightmare on Elm Street. This low budget indie film caught the eye of Lionsgate at the Sundance film festival this year when it won over audiences with its unique story and dare I say set design? Not since The Descent have we really gotten a film to capture the essence of a classic case of claustrophobia.

Synopsis: Paul Conroy is not ready to die. But when he wakes up 6 feet underground with no idea of who put him there or why, life for the truck driver and family man instantly becomes a hellish struggle for survival. Buried with only a cell phone and a lighter, his contact with the outside world and ability to piece together clues that could help him discover his location are maddeningly limited. Poor reception, a rapidly draining battery, and a dwindling oxygen supply become his worst enemies in a tightly confined race against time- fighting panic, despair and delirium, Paul has only 90 minutes to be rescued before his worst nightmare comes true.

screen-shot-2010-05-04-at-81323-am

If we could take back Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li and learn from our mistakes with video game adaptations, will we ever get a decent Street Fighter movie? Besides the 1994 attempt at a feature film, Street Fighter has really been an accomplished video game franchise. After the dust settled from the aftermath of Legend of Chun-Li, one man has stepped up to this challenge to create a short film recognizing the potential of Street Fighter. You can check out the short film along with trailers, featurettes and pictures after the jump!

Crossing the Streams with Ghostbusters 3

Will Ghostbusters 3 actually happen? Three different stories from the contributing actors have surfaced and if you are looking forward to this film being made, then these might be quite misleading. Bill Murray stated last month that the film is “just a myth,” and that “all this talk is just talk.” But other cast members have shared different stories on the progress of the film.

Can Matthew Vaughn Make a Kick Ass X-Men Prequel?

Stories have been thrown back and forth whether or not Kick-Ass director, Matthew Vaughn, would be helming the prequel/reboot of the X-Men franchise new film, X-Men: First Class, based off the comic book written by Jeff Parker. Many names were dropped (Louis Leterrier, Jonathan Mostow, Daniel Espinosa, Rupert Sanders, Timur Bekmambetov, David Slade, and Carl Erick Rinsch) in terms of who would be placed to direct this film, but ultimately the final decision has been placed on Matthew Vaughn for a June, 3, 2011 release.

MOVIE POSTERS!!! Inception, Get Him to the Greek, Buried, The Last Airbender, and Scream 4

Buried

Well a lot of movie posters have been releasing lately and I finally had the time(?)/drive to want to post them. They are actually pretty cool, well except for Scream 4. The others are pretty badass. The Scream 4 tagline, I actually believe, is pretty catchy and smart on their part. Hopefully the franchise has a gameplan in mind without Neve Campbell and putting it all on David Arquette and Courtney Cox. The Last Airbender character posters are pretty spiffy, but I’m sure there are still people out there pissed about the casting, oh well. The new Inception poster was found sometime last week, I believe, and is pretty Chris Nolan if I do say so. Nothing too revealing, but just grabs your attention barely. Nolan is very minimalistic with his posters, but something about them are just really enjoyable. Buried has a really daring poster with very little to show, but a whole lot of engagement. Little do people know about this movie, but they will now after this poster. I find it very well done and frightening for a poster. Well done lads. Finally there is also, Get Him to the Greek, starring Jonah Hill and Russell Brand. I think this poster is trying to give The Hangover vibe, although the movie is nothing like The Hangover, the poster sure makes you want to believe it and perhaps fool audiences.

Check them all out after the jump!

503rd Post!

Apparently I have breached over my 500th post without realizing this. Well I suppose I’ve come along way since my first post back on June 3, 2009. Almost a year since I started with this thing and I’d say I have surprisingly been through a lot of changes. Became a contributing writer for 3 websites, had an internship, quit facebook for 2 months, worked retail again, saw 365 movies in less than a year, gained a new great internship and finally have a paying job. Wonder what would have happened if I never started this thing. Who knows?

Anchorman 2 and Zoolander 2, At What Cost?

Recently Adam McKay, the writer/director of Anchorman, tweeted that Paramount has passed up the opportunity to budget Anchorman 2.

“So bummed. Paramount basically passed on Anchorman 2. Even after we cut our budget down. We tried.”

Along with that “sad” news, Ben Stiller tweeted that Zoolander 2 was being passed up as well by Paramount.

“Ron Burgundy and Derek Zoolander looking to appear in sequels. Both men destitute, without means or intellect to fund their own comebacks.”

More developing news on these films have come into play whether these sequels can actually get produced for the right price.

Will We See District 8?

Empire has caught up with Sharlto Copley about the possibility of a District 9 sequel with director Neill Blomkamp, in fact, from what he tells Empire is that there may be a prequel in the works. I’m sure it’s not going to be called Distrcit 8, but perhaps that got your attention anyways.
