When a UFO is sighted, it is called an encounter of the first kind. When evidence is collected, it is known as an encounter of the second kind. When contact is made with extraterrestrials, it is the third kind. The next level, abduction, is the fourth kind. This encounter has been the most difficult to document...until now.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Structured unlike any film before it, "The Fourth Kind" is a provocative thriller set in modern-day Nome, Alaska, where—mysteriously since the 1960s—a disproportionate number of the population has been reported missing every year. Despite multiple FBI investigations of the region, the truth has never been discovered.<br /><br />Here in this remote region, psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler (Milla Jovovich) began videotaping sessions with traumatized patients and unwittingly discovered some of the most disturbing evidence of alien abduction ever documented.<br /><br />Using never-before-seen archival footage that is integrated into the film, "The Fourth Kind" exposes the terrified revelations of multiple witnesses. Their accounts of being visited by alien figures all share disturbingly identical details, the validity of which is investigated throughout the film.<br /><br />Release Date: November 6, 2009<br />Studio: Universal Pictures<br />Director: Olatunde Osunsanmi<br />Screenwriter: Olatunde Osunsanmi<br />Starring: Milla Jovovich, Elias Koteas, Will Patton<br />Genre: Thriller<br />MPAA Rating: PG-13 (for violent/disturbing images, some terror, thematic elements and brief sexuality)<br />Official Website: TheFourthKind.net<br />Review: Not Available<br />DVD Review: Not Available<br />DVD: Not Available <br /><br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928129855292440661.post-6983645668420206522009-10-27T20:42:00.001+07:002009-10-27T20:43:54.087+07:00Paranormal Activity<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/Sub4-6sb7uI/AAAAAAAAC7c/s4iHCwLfntI/s1600-h/poster+Paranormal_Activity_2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/Sub4-6sb7uI/AAAAAAAAC7c/s4iHCwLfntI/s320/poster+Paranormal_Activity_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397274963241332450" /></a><br />Summary: After a young, middle class couple moves into what seems like a typical suburban "starter" tract house, they become increasingly disturbed by a presence that may or may not be somehow demonic but is certainly most active in the middle of the night.<br /><br />Especially when they sleep.

Everyone--from politicians to advertisers to the man and woman on the street--speaks the truth and nothing but the truth with no thought of the consequences. <br /><span class="fullpost"><br />But when a down-on-his-luck loser named Mark suddenly develops the ability to lie, he finds that dishonesty has its rewards. In a world where every word is assumed to be the absolute truth, Mark easily lies his way to fame and fortune. But lies have a way of spreading, and Mark begins to realize that things are getting a little out of control when some of his tallest tales are being taken as, well, gospel.

They bind and gag her and take her to an abandoned, soundproofed apartment. She is Alice Creed (Gemma Arterton), daughter of a millionaire. Her kidnappers, the coldly efficient Vic (Eddie Marsan) and his younger accomplice Danny (Martin Compston), have worked out a meticulous plan. But Alice is not going to play the perfect victim – she's not giving in without a fight. In a tense power-play of greed, duplicity and survival we discover that sometimes disappearances can be deceptive...<br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928129855292440661.post-12359728813633729562009-09-17T10:11:00.001+07:002009-09-17T10:11:42.971+07:00HOT : Diablo Cody & Jason Reitman on Jennifer's BodyShockTillYouDrop.com talked exclusively to screenwriter Diablo Cody and producer Jason Reitman about their new horror-comedy Jennifer's Body, opening in theaters on Friday, September 18.<br /><br />The film is about small town high school student Jennifer (Megan Fox), who is possessed by a hungry demon. She transitions from being "high school evil" - gorgeous (and doesn't she know it), stuck up and ultra-attitudinal - to the real deal: evil/evil. The glittering beauty becomes a pale and sickly creature jonesing for a meaty snack, and guys who never stood a chance with the heartless babe, take on new luster in the light of Jennifer's insatiable appetite. Meanwhile, Jennifer's lifelong best friend Needy (Amanda Seyfried), long relegated to living in Jennifer's shadow, must step-up to protect the town's young men, including her nerdy boyfriend Chip (Johnny Simmons).<br /><span class="fullpost"><br /><br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928129855292440661.post-30885952833240422922009-09-15T23:29:00.001+07:002009-09-15T23:29:27.551+07:00New Superman Movie Just DREAM"We actually don't have any current plans for Superman," said Nelson when asked if the new environment (and the recent legal decision regarding the character) made a "Superman" movie more or less likely in the near future...

Here are the pertinent details, straight from the announcement:<br /><br />On Monday, July 20 between 9:00-9:30 a.m. PST, tickets will go on sale exclusively at www.fandango.com for a special San Diego-only event on Thursday, July 23 during the week of Comic-Con. “The TWILIGHT Experience”, a one-night-only special theatrical re-release of global sensation TWILIGHT, featuring an introduction by cast members.

For now, on to today's Dailies.<br /><br />-- Russell Crowe is considering signing on with a new "Master & Commander" flick. (The Associated Press)<br /><br />-- Due to dramatically reduced budgets, the return of Matt Groening's "Futurama" TV series may be saddled with an all-new cast of voice actors. Fox has put out a casting call to replace main standbys Billy West, John DiMaggio, Katey Sagal and Maurice LaMarche. (Variety)<br /><br />-- "The Hangover" star Ed Helms is signed on for his next project, described as a road trip comedy. The movie, "Cedar Rapids," will be directed by Michael Arteta. Arteta also directed the upcoming "Youth in Revolt," starring Zach Galifianakis and Michael Cera. (The Hollywood Reporter)<br /><br />-- The Todd Phillips-produced comedy "Staycation" has landed a pair of writers: Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay. The duo previously wrote "Crazy/Beautiful," "Aeon Flux" and the upcoming "Clash of the Titans" remake.

Click here for the full box office estimates of the top 12 films and then check back on Monday for the final figures based on actual box office.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince dominated the worldwide box office its first five days, opening to an estimated $159.7 million in North American--the sixth-biggest domestic opening ever--and $237 million from 54 international markets, a new record. The worldwide take of $396.7 million after five days is also a record, surpassing the $381.7 million made by Spider-Man 3 in 2007 its first five days. The sixth installment of Warner Bros.' "Harry Potter" franchise cost about $235 million to make. Domestically it opened bigger than its predecessor Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which collected $139.7 million its first five days. "Half-Blood Prince" had the second-biggest start for a movie premiering on a Wednesday, trailing the $200 million five-day opening of last month's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The Dark Knight holds the five-day domestic record with $203.8 million. For the three-day weekend, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince earned $79.5 million in North America, averaging an impressive $18,376 from 4,325 theaters.<br /><br />20th Century Fox's Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs remained in second place with an additional $17.7 million to bring its three-week total to $152 million. Internationally, the film has reached $429 million, ahead of the "Transformers" sequel with $398 million. The worldwide total stands at $581 million.<br /><br />Paramount/DreamWorks' Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen also kept its spot from last week, adding $13.8 million in third place for a sum of $363.9 million, easily the top earner domestically this year so far. It has climbed to the 13th spot on the all-time domestic list. The Michael Bay sequel has almost crossed the $400 million mark internationally and sits at $398 million, good for a massive worldwide take of $761.9 million.<br /><br />Universal's Brüno suffered a 72.7% fall in ticket sales its second weekend and dropped from first to fourth with $8.4 million. The Sacha Baron Cohen comedy has made $49.6 million domestically after 10 days. Overseas, the film earned $10.6 million this weekend to push its foreign total to $46 million and a worldwide tally of $95.6 million.<br /><br />In its seventh weekend in theaters, Warner Bros.' The Hangover continued to impress, taking in another $8.3 million for a total of $235.9 million, the highest ever for an R-rated comedy, surpassing Beverly Hills Cop's $234.8 million. Internationally, the comedy has earned $84.2 million and has reached $320.1 million worldwide.<br /><br />In limited release, Fox Searchlight's (500) Days of Summer collected a strong $837,588 from just 27 theaters for an average of $31,022 per theater.<br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928129855292440661.post-67499980013741975942009-07-18T15:41:00.001+07:002009-07-18T15:45:30.582+07:00News : Astro Boy is Back - Butt Cannons and All<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmGLB9yUOiI/AAAAAAAAB9E/61ywayKKQds/s1600-h/astroboytour1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 153px; height: 225px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmGLB9yUOiI/AAAAAAAAB9E/61ywayKKQds/s320/astroboytour1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359717897429334562" /></a><br />Superhero Hype! recently enjoyed a tour of Imagi Animation Studios' Los Angeles outpost (tucked as discretely away in an unlikely location inside a Sherman Oaks shopping mall as Astro's backside blasters are) where work was nearing an end on the long-anticipated feature film based on Osamu Tezuka's enduringly beloved manga comic dating back to 1952 and perhaps most fondly recalled from its animated Japanese TV incarnation from the 1960s. Astro Boy remains in iconic pop culture figure in Japan, as adored as Mickey Mouse (where he's honored with everything from fashion items to statuary), and also celebrated in countries across the globe.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />So it's with no small effort that Imagi – the Hong Kong-based company perhaps best known for the short-lived but lavishly animated DreamWorks TV series "Father of the Pride" and Warner Bros.' TMNT film – is relaunching Astro as a big-screen superstar, well aware of his impact around the world. Imagi's Hong Kong-born founder Francis Kao was educated in the US and grew up watching the original cartoons.<br /><br />Thus Imagi's become what they like to call a 24-hour studio: The "front-end" work on the Astro Boy film – story and script development, character design, set design, etc. – was handled by a Los Angeles team of about 80-120 staffers who would teleconference or Skype about large and little details with 400 animation staffer in Hong Kong before handing over the reigns to the Chinese office to work through the US night (The studio is ambitiously aiming to soon produce at least one film per year, with Gatchaman up next).<br /><br />Imagi turned to director David Bowers (Flushed Away) to makeover Astro for the modern audience, and to do so Bower delved into the character's surprisingly dark-tinged manga origins for inspiration – like other pop icons such Batman, Astro's original incarnation had more than a hint of pathos: think Pinocchio meets Frankenstein meets Superman.<br /><br />"It's a classic superhero origin story," explains Bowers. "We really find out what Astro Boy is and where he comes from. It's a very emotional story. When I started this film I was keen on having something to hang all the action, adventure and comedy on, so I really went back to the father-son relationship between Astro and his father. Astro Boy is a robot created by a brilliant scientist to replace his dead son, and this film explores all the problems that come with attempting something like that."<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmGLCDIp7rI/AAAAAAAAB9M/i0Hd-6rAUCI/s1600-h/astroboytour2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 225px; height: 149px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmGLCDIp7rI/AAAAAAAAB9M/i0Hd-6rAUCI/s320/astroboytour2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359717898865209010" /></a><br />And it wouldn't be a modern animated epic – rendered, naturally, in 3-D CGI - without an impressive voice cast of recognizable stars. "We have a terrific cast," said Bowers. "We have as Astro Boy Freddie Highmore from 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' and he's terrific in the role. As his father Dr. Tenma we have Nicolas Cage, we have Kristen Bell as our female lead Cora – she plays one of the kids Astro meets when he's thrown out of the city and lands in the junk piles and has to make his own way in the world. We have Nathan Lane as Ham Egg, a sort of Fagin-esque character. We have Eugene Levy as Orrin – he's a house robot. We have Bill Nighy as Dr. Elefun, the conscience of our movie – and actually Bill has two roles in this movie because I worked with him on 'Flushed Away' and I love working with him so I cast him twice in this film. We have Matt Lucas playing a character called Sparks, who's a new character who's a robot revolutionary who's actually pretty useless, and Bill plays one of his cohorts, Robotski, who's also a very useless revolutionary."<br /><br />Also instrumental in bringing Astro Boy and the inhabitants of Metro City to life was character designer Luis Grane, a longtime fan of the character since his boyhood in Argentina. Grane drew inspiration from a disparate variety of sources, most specifically classic Japanese and Japanese American artists and sculptors employing simple shapes and structures that were in line with Tezuka's original flat but evocative manga style. In attempting to translate that style into a 3-D form, Grane also incorporated philosophies from pre-Columbian art, specifically from Western Mexico where elongated shapes and caricature-ish elements abound – shapes and styles that found their way into over 30 robots, both anthropomorphic and abstract, featured in the film.<br /><br />But there the biggest challenge for Grane was Astro himself, and how to visualize the half-naked kid in jet boots for a modern audience.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmGLCR3pVzI/AAAAAAAAB9U/OX7X9TfodDo/s1600-h/astroboytour3.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 225px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmGLCR3pVzI/AAAAAAAAB9U/OX7X9TfodDo/s320/astroboytour3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359717902820398898" /></a><br />"They wanted to make him a little bit older than the original one, to appeal to a broader audience, so we tried different things," Grane explained. "One of the big issues was to have him with the classic costume, so there were concerns about a boy flying in underwear through the city. So we tried different clothes, different costumes."<br /><br />Ultimately, the result embodied the icon, but added bits of futuristic flair. "It's our version, but we didn't want to lose the essence of the character," said Grane. "We tried to use the iconic features, like the X-ray vision, rocket boots, and the controversial cannons [in his rear end]. We were like 'Should we use these? Is it going to look weird?' But for me it was normal. I grew up with him – of course he has butt cannons! So they're in the movie."<br /><br />Bowers also introduced several nearly-finished scenes from the new film which appear to have successfully married the pathos and poignancy the director found in the original manga story with the pop-y whiz-bang of the TV series and all the high-tech animated bells and whistles today's audience expects from both animated features and superhero epics.<br /><br />In the first scene, Bowers explains: "Dr. Tenma has just lost his son Tobey – he's heartbroken and feel like it's his fault. And this is his way of coping, his solution." The director revealed a subtly told, noticeably dark sequence in which Tenma, against the best advice of his otherwise sympathetic colleagues, brings Astro Boy to life as a replacement, hoping to fill the aching void in his life.<br /><br />In the second sequence unveiled, Bowers revealed: "Dr. Tenma takes Astro home and they go through sort of a normal day but things don't work out as he expected. Astro's a little bit different than Tobey and he's disappointed, and he ends up eventually breaking the truth to Astro, that he's not his son, that he's a robot that looks like his son and he doesn't want him anymore. And Astro's heartbroken and flies out of the apartment, and when we catch up to him he's sitting sort of coming to terms with the truth about what's just happened. Astro's tested his powers and learned that he can fly, and he showed up on the miltary's sensors, and the military wants to try to get his blue core power source back.<br /><br />The scenes show alternate from tragic to giddy to foreboding, as Astro discovers his abilities amid a complex and stunningly rendered vision of Metro City but draws attention from the military and President Stone (voiced by Donald Sutherland) that may be his undoing as he seeks out a new life and purpose.<br /><br />In the final scene that Bower shared, Astro has already gone through several challenges and disappointments: "Astro ends up landing on the surface of Earth and has to sort of make his way," said the director. "A lot happened and he runs into a bunch of kids who he befriends. He meets a guy called Ham Egg that he thinks could be another father for him. But eventually he has to make a choice: whether to help the people of Metro City or to just fly away from the people who haven't treated him so well. In the meantime, President Stone has activated this thing called the Peacekeeper robot, which is Astro's nemesis toward the end of this movie, and it's an eight-foot-tall robot that has the ability to suck up anything around it – it will suck up chairs, grab your guns, anything to use against you. It's also absorbed President Stone, which is why it's speaking in Donald Sutherland's voice."<br /><br />In the action-packed sequence, Astro Boy emerges as a blockbuster level hero on par with any other superhero, even if he's only wearing underwear. And you can just bet those rear-end missles are going to come into play.<br /><br />Astro Boy hits theaters on October 23. Bower, Highmore, Bell and producer Maryann Garger will debut footage exclusive to Comic-Con and answer questions on Thursday, July 23rd from 10:45 a.m. to 11:15 a.m.in room 6BCF!<br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928129855292440661.post-44737185066005267092009-07-17T22:35:00.002+07:002009-07-18T15:47:04.251+07:00Picture : Ryan Reynolds As The Green Lantern<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmCak9rC7LI/AAAAAAAAB4c/NsHqTTHGF8M/s1600-h/Reynolds-Lantern-tmb2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 120px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmCak9rC7LI/AAAAAAAAB4c/NsHqTTHGF8M/s320/Reynolds-Lantern-tmb2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359453516391967922" /></a><br />his is absolutely confirmed fake. But it’s done so well I just had to share it with you guys.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br /><br /><br />As most of you know by now, Ryan Reynolds has scored the lead role in the upcoming comic book movie “The Green Lantern”. He wasn’t my first choice, but he’s certainly a choice I like. Anyway, the guys over at /film had a reader send in this great fan made picture of Reynolds as the emerald avenger and they did a fantastic job with it.<br /><br />So how do you think Reynolds looks in green?<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmCaqUSRbJI/AAAAAAAAB4k/PBDDNL0QncU/s1600-h/Reynolds-Lantern.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 259px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmCaqUSRbJI/AAAAAAAAB4k/PBDDNL0QncU/s320/Reynolds-Lantern.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359453608361421970" /></a><br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928129855292440661.post-52131397415680184272009-07-17T22:15:00.003+07:002009-07-18T15:46:13.691+07:00Hot News : Harry Potter Destroys “The Dark Knight” Midnight Screening Box Office Record<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmCVy1YMD_I/AAAAAAAAB4M/0tOWqx-fd9w/s1600-h/Harry-Potter-6-Review.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 283px; height: 170px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g2w_8MxQPOU/SmCVy1YMD_I/AAAAAAAAB4M/0tOWqx-fd9w/s320/Harry-Potter-6-Review.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359448257125421042" border="0" /></a><br />Wouuww, Now this could get interesting. As you know, the other day I posted here on The Movie Blog wondering if Harry Potter could in fact beat “The Dark Knight” box office record. Well… things seem to be off to a good start for the young wizard.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />The previous midnight screening box office record was held by The Dark Knight which made $18.5 million. Harry Potter just beat the crap out of that by taking in over $22.2 million. Good freaking grief! That’s more money that a lot of movies make in their entire runs. $22.2 million on just the midnight screenings?!?!?! Are you kidding me!?!?!<br /><br />The Dark Knight currently holds the 5 day opening record with $203.7 million. Could Potter actually pass that by the end of the weekend? The short answer is yes it can. Will it? I’m not sure… but man it’ll be close.<br /></span>fauzan masykurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05902056885113863231noreply@blogger.com0
