Hell has frozen over and has take then form of the remake of Poltergeist. Which has been given the release date of November 24, 2010. Can you really remake Tobe Hooper’s work of the original Poltergeist, well I guess it was done with The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. With director Vadim Perelman (House of Sand and Fog) attached since last September, the production has been in development a long time with a script surfacing last year, but so far, no cast has been announced and no information about where or when they might start filming. Thanks STYD.
The new redband trailer has released for the film Legion. Legion stars Paul Bettany, Dennis Quaid and Adrianne Palicki, written and directed by Scott Stewart. The story revolves around the last time God lost faith in man, he sent a flood. This time he sent what you see outside. So, what if God decides that he’s lost faith in man? We always talk about having to have faith in God, but what happens if it happens in reverse? God loses faith in man and says “do it over”? This is our approach to that. It’s also about a bunch of characters who are dealing with lost fathers or lost children, trouble between parents and children, dysfunctional families, and standing over all of that is this idea of an angry father, which is very much God in the Old Testament.
A live performance for Seattle’s Marrowstone in the City program. The music was arranged by the genius Lennart Jansson (Link) and Gen Kim(Ash Ketchum). Gen choreographed all the extra bits behind them as they play and sang the Halo theme, of course. The Tetris bit is a tribute to the old a capella group that did game themes. Lennart is playing an ocarina there, and Gen drumming the top of my violin. Hope you enjoy.

Opening in limited theaters on August 21st. Directed by Doug Pray, Art & Copy reveals the work and wisdom of some of the most influential advertising creatives of our time — people who’ve profoundly impacted our culture, yet are virtually unknown outside their industry
Exploding forth from advertising’s “creative revolution” of the 1960s, these artists and writers all brought a surprisingly rebellious spirit to their work in a business more often associated with mediocrity or manipulation: George Lois, Mary Wells, Dan Wieden, Lee Clow, Hal Riney and others featured in the film were responsible for “Just Do It,” “I Love NY,” “Where’s the Beef?,” “Got Milk,” “Think Different,” and brilliant campaigns for everything from cars to presidents. They managed to grab the attention of millions and truly move them.
Visually interwoven with their stories, TV satellites are launched, billboards are erected, and the social and cultural impact of their ads are brought to light in this dynamic exploration of art, commerce, and human emotion.
Here we have it. Heath Ledgers last work in film in The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. The film stars Ledger, Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell.
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is a fantastical morality tale, set in the present day. It tells the story of Dr Parnassus and his extraordinary ‘Imaginarium’, a travelling show where members of the audience get an irresistible opportunity to choose between light and joy or darkness and gloom. Blessed with the extraordinary gift of guiding the imaginations of others, Dr Parnassus is cursed with a dark secret. Long ago he made a bet with the devil, Mr Nick, in which he won immortality. Many centuries later, on meeting his one true love, Dr Parnassus made another deal with the devil, trading his immortality for youth, on condition that when his first-born reached its 16th birthday he or she would become the property of Mr Nick. Valentina is now rapidly approaching this ‘coming of age’ milestone and Dr Parnassus is desperate to protect her from her impending fate. Mr Nick arrives to collect but, always keen to make a bet, renegotiates the wager. Now the winner of Valentina will be determined by whoever seduces the first five souls. Enlisting a series of wild, comical and compelling characters in his journey, Dr Parnassus promises his daughter’s hand in marriage to the man that helps him win. In this captivating, explosive and wonderfully imaginative race against time, Dr Parnassus must fight to save his daughter in a never-ending landscape of surreal obstacles – and undo the mistakes of his past once and for all… – IMDb
This looks like a great adventure story with tons of cool imagery and great acting. I can’t wait for this to come out to theaters.
Finally! Thank God! All six sorority confession promotions for Sorority Row are online. This movie is just absolutely ridiculous. I cannot wait to see how horrible and sexy this movie will be at the same time. If this movie actually turns out to be a good horror film, well I don’t even know what I would do. I think my head would explode possibly. I think it will be entertaining to the fact that its just a fun horror slasher film with a bunch of good looking girls in it, but that’s about all. But hey, most remakes turn out to be good though……Just take a look at how the girls of Theta Pi encourage you to rush their house.
This movie comes a swinging on September 11th. Strange. When five sorority girls inadvertently cause the murder of one of their sisters in a prank gone wrong, they agree to keep the matter to themselves and never speak of it again, so they can get on with their lives. This proves easier said than done, when after graduation a mysterious killer goes after the five of them and anyone who knows their secret. This film features Briana Evigan, Rumer Willis, Audrina Patridge, Leah Pipes and Jamie Chung
Check out all the wise words of the sorority sisters after the jump. Theta Pi or Die! Betch……?
