And Knowing Is Half The Battle - Movie News

Published by junkfx at 10:00 am under Movie News Edit This

Looks like there is some good news and horrible news out there today, kids.

-On the set of”GI Joe”, actor Joseph Gordon Levitt, COBRA Commander, praises the original voice actor for the 1980s cartoon show, Chris Latta, as a “fantastic voiceover artist, but if you did that exact voice it would sound ridiculous in a live-action movie. I guess it’s half Chris Latta and half me.”

-Early in 2009, Sony is set to release a direct-to-DVD sequel to Open Season.  No news yet on story or title, but with a $190 million gross from the first, looks like mongoloids world over and their insipid parental units will be purchasing more regurgitated crap.

- A new Transformer has been outted for the upcoming sequel, “Revenge of the Fallen.”  He is Devastator, the combination of 5 other Transformers to combine and make one giant one.  Looks like we can be expecting the Dinobots too, then.

“GRIMLOCK SMASH!!!”

-  Truly terrifying news as Eva Mendez says she has talked to Nic Cage and he is working, presumably on a sequel to”Ghost Rider”….it is a dark day, my friends.  More horrible news from Eva and Nic, just like every other person who is in need of a good whack with a 2×4 for wanting a white-wash over their movies, they are remaking “Bad Lieutenant”, entitled: “Port of New Orleans.”  Now, I hate remaking foreign films just so people in America can find satisfaction with a White face playing the lead role.  “My Sassy Girl”, “The Lake House”, “The Eye”, “The Grudge”, “Unfaithful”, “In The Bedroom”, and I can keep doing this all damn day….

- Looks like “The Dark Knight” will be rereleased to IMax in January, just in time for Oscar season.  Get that movie fresh back into people’s minds when voting.  So for all those (cough cough RICK and DANIELLE cough cough) who might have seen some negative things in the film before, why not go see it again and see what a good film it was.

- It would seem that Arnie was on set for the new “Terminator” films this week providing ADR (voice over for my non film people) for some characters in the film.  It’s also rumored that he will be giving digital face prints to the new terminators in the film.  The Govinator is gonna destroy us all….

    Yay - I’m the first to leave a comment!
    I do have to admit - the first Ghost Rider wasn’t anything special - so why make a sequel? MONEY…Ok…so after forcefully picking out a foreign film on movie night last month, I will agree with you that a film should stay in it’s original format, not made into some horrible remake just to please american audiences.
    And who had bad things to say about Dark Knight?? I think we need to lock them up - there muct be something mentally wrong with them!
    Keep the reviews and the news coming…I look forward to it!

    While I appreciate the heads up on some upcoming films, I and the people who read your stupid blog would really appreciate reviews on movies that we can actually go see! Are we forced to read content that is solely about your endless diatribes on corporate Hollywood? I bet you are the type of movie critic that does not invite other people’s opinions about films because God forbid you are forced to intellectually defend your position! I also bet that if their views are contradictory to yours, you would belittle them and call them all sorts of vile names.

    P.S. I hate you!

    I love bashing corporate Hollywood. And I love calling people vile names. But, I also love Dr. Pepper. Hmmm, sweet nectar of the gods. Seriously though, thank you for the comments guys! I love doing these and look forward to writing more.
