, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”, adaptation of the seventh and final book in J.K. Rowling’s series will be split

Mark Wahlberg as Max Payne picture 2008-03-12 02:10:04 So here’s a picture of Wahlberg

standing in the rain near his government looking Ford. It mostly looks just like a picture of Mark Wahlberg, they should have done a bit more to make him look like Max Payne

The Fountain (2006) review 2008-03-17 15:47:05 This movie is simply amazing. It’s a story about love, death, spirituality, and the fragility of our existence in this world. After I saw the trailer, I was sure it was going to be just a very cool drama and love story with great visual effects, about a guy who was going to find the [...] Read more:Fountain

Doomsday (2008) review 2008-03-25 14:34:24 If you were lucky enough to not see Neil Marshall’s “The Descent” then do yourself a favor and do so again on his latest film. There’s not much to “Doomsday
” except for the doom part of the title. For starters, it’s not really about the end of the world. It’s about the end of the [...] Read more:review
“My Brother Is An Only Child” (2008) movie review 2008-03-30 07:55:20 Daniele Luchetti’s “My Brother
Is an Only Child” (Mio Fratello e Figlio Unico) is one of the better examples of the genre, focusing on a pair of brothers who struggle to make sense of the social turbulence of the 1960s and ’70s.
For all the concentration on politics, the film isn’t really political at all, but [...] Read more:movie

Redbelt Interviews: David Mamet and Chiwetel Ejiofor 2008-05-08 22:27:00 Filed under: Drama, Sony Classics, Interviews
When David
Mamet’s Redbelt was announced, the initial simple summary seemed bizarrely incongruous: A noted playwright and dramatist making a film about martial arts? But while Redbelt involves the worlds of Jiu-jitsu and mixed martial arts, it’s really just another way for playwright, screenwriter and director Mamet to look at [...]
Dennis Quaid and Ben Foster Cavort Through Deep Space in ‘Pandorum’ 2008-05-08 22:02:00 Filed under: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Scripts
There’s a really neat-sounding small-scale sci-fi project in development at Overture Films called Pandorum. But for the news that Paul W.S. Anderson is involved, I’d be really excited. Pandorum will be about two spaceship crewmen who wake up on their ship with no idea who they are or what they’re [...] Read more:Dennis

Review: What Happens in Vegas… 2008-05-08 21:02:00 Filed under: Comedy, Romance, Theatrical Reviews, 20th Century Fox
Here’s where I get confused: If you knew a pair of people like the characters played by Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher in the new feature-length sitcom pilot What Happens in Vegas
, you’d probably hate them. Undoubtedly, in real life, you’d want to punch / mock / [...]

Discuss: Should ‘Terminator 4′ Go Into Production Right Before a Potential SAG Strike? 2008-05-08 09:32:00 Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Politics
I think it’s kind of funny that in Eugene’s post about T4’s start date, he says: “barring some Terry Gilliam-scale disaster.” I wonder if the disaster could be a long and arduous SAG strike? The New Zealand Herald (Reuters) pointed out today that the production is moving on despite the distinct [...] Read more:Potential

Frank Miller to Direct a New ‘Buck Rogers’ Flick? Really? Cool. 2008-05-08 09:02:00 Filed under: Action, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Remakes and Sequels
He’s one of pop culture’s most beloved outer space adventurers, but we sure haven’t seen a lot of good ol’ Buck Rogers
lately. (Then again, Flash Gordon’s most recent incarnation was pretty awful, so maybe that’s a good thing.) Born in 1928 from the pen of [...] Read more:Direct
