According to /Film, at the D23 Expo, it was released that the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie is currently subtitled, On Stranger Tides. What does this mean? The new movie is up for shooting around the April 2010 time frame. This would be the start of a whole new trilogy and luckily without Orlando Bloom. These won’t be shot back to back like the original trilogy, so maybe we’ll get a decent Pirates movie……
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.
Here we go with some quick notes again. Quick Notes are articles and blips that I do not feel on typing out full news that could just be viewed in shorts because there is just not enough time in the day to possibly touch on everything in full. They are all just a bunch of random hooblah of sorts that fell into this little section of fun and goodness after the jump: Stories of Pirates 4, Transformers 3, TMNT, and more!
It has come! Either you have to join the Mad Hatter’s Army on Facebook, just click on this link here, or check out the video below to view the new Alice In Wonderland Teaser Trailer in high definition. The cinematography looks great and the imagery is beautiful. What more could you ask for in a Burton film other than possibly less Depp? I find him a little overrated for roles like this these days, but lets hope he doesn’t play a vital role in the film; it is titled Alice In Wonderland, not Mad Hatter in Wonderland. Either way, we’ll see how it goes on March 5th, 2010.
The plot : “Written by Linda Woolverton, who also co-wrote The Lion King, and had a part in Beauty and the Beast, Mulan, and the Teen Wolf cartoon, the script isn’t exactly an adaptation of the original story by Lewis Carroll, as it is an extension of it. Alice went to Wonderland as a child, and she’s now almost grown. She’s 17, and she’s back for more, but doesn’t remember her times there earlier. She’s about to be engaged, maybe. A rich suitor wants to marry her, and the opening scenes of the movie are of her engagement party. But she, of course, gets distracted by a white rabbit.”
I have seen the teaser and I know its going to get shut down soon before tomorrow so I took the liberty of taking some stills. It looks interesting, a lot more kiddy than I thought, but still looks good. It seems that the Mad Hatter is a intricate role in the movie and of course the story seems to revolve around Depps character, or maybe its just the trailer. The trailer shows all the main characters: Red Queen, Mad Hatter, White Rabbit, White Queen, Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dum, and the Cheshire Cat. This film comes out March 5th, 2010. The Official teaser trailer should be out tomorrow according to whoever wins the Facebook war.
(UPDATE: ALL VIDEOS OF THE TRAILER ARE DOWN THANKS TO DISNEY OR WHOEVER, You can say thanks for the trailer stills though because I knew they would all get taken down)
A new marketing campaign during Comic Con has been issued for the new Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland. Be the first to see the new teaser trailer for this film by becoming a fan of the characters on Facebook……
Wooo more Alice in Wonderland character photos have been released by Planeta Disney. Shown are Alice (Mia Wasikowska), the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) and The Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter).
This story is more of a sequel and follows Alice, 17 years old, as she escapes from rich snob party and follows the white rabbit down the rabbit hole, back to Wonderland. The White Rabbit is convinced that he has the right girl, the one who had visited the magical land ten years prior. Alice doesn’t remember her past visit to Wonderland. The creatures of Wonderland are ready to revolt and are hoping Alice can help them.
JoBlo conducted with Depp about his little flick called ‘Public Enemies.’ It details about the work he did and the character and how he put it all together.
“Did he feel like he was untouchable? That no one could get to him?
I think he felt the clock was ticking. I think maybe when you’re on that adrenaline high, you may feel that sort of thing, that “No one can get me.” But I don’t think he was dumb, you know? And to feel like you’re completely untouchable there’s a certain amount of ignorance in that. I think he just felt like “I got that one, let’s move on to the next. And what happens now?”
Well here we go ‘Public Enemies’ comes out soon (July 1) and early premieres are showing. Hey look, JoBlo.com got a few clips (seven actually) of the cool new Chicago gangster movie. Starring Christian Bale and Johnny Depp, this wild ride into the world of bank theft will be one to see. Take a look at the exclusive little clips that give you a sneak peak into what John Dillinger has in store for you.
