New Trailer for 'Welcome To The Punch' not much of a  James McAvoy fan but the film looks like it could be alright;

 

Transformers 4 Plot Synopsis Out [1]

 

As humanity picks up the pieces, following the conclusion of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Autobots and Decepticons have all but vanished from the face of the planet. However, a group of powerful, ingenious businessman and scientists attempt to learn from past Transformer incursions and push the boundaries of technology beyond what they can control – all while an ancient, powerful Transformer menace sets Earth in his crosshairs. The epic adventure and battle between good and evil, freedom and enslavement ensues.

I thought the WORLD WAR Z poster was cool. I know that WORLD WAR Z isn't that popular around here but wow, do I think it looks good. I'm not really a zombie guy I've only recently started watching THE WALKING DEAD and this is a nice change of direction IMO from the normal slow walking zombies we normally see. Its also exciting that have to beat the clock on top of just survive the every day.  

 

I guess Marc Forester isn't a big enough name for the poster...

Those WOLVERINE posters look like they come from the DARK KNIGHT and SKYFALL school of how not to design a poster.

Absolutely. 

 

I must admit the WORLD WAR Z poster does intrigue me. And the IRON MAN 3 at least reminds me of those great posters from the 80´s.

 

But all the others are just more of the same. 

 

The really depressing aspect of it all: the poster is not a main factor to sell a movie anymore. In the past, the poster was what made you aware of a new movie because it was on display at the cinema where you went to see other movies.

 

Nowadays, it´s the internet trailer (with the teaser, and the teaser that teases the teser) which goes viral and gives you a first look. The poster is only one more assisting asset - but is not really that important anymore. Hence the little effort (and money put in) to make posters special. There´ll be a time when the poster will not even be used anymore, only to give the DVD a cover - or, more likely, a thumbnail for the download.

I think that's the reason they had financial trouble in the first place, handing over money for this sort of tat film-making!

This looks very interesting. The look and feel of DRIVE with an Asian twist? I'm already sold.

Yeah, I think you can bet on at least a nomination for Best Cinematography for this one. Visually, it's one of the best looking films I've seen in recent memory

I'd say little film with big anticipation. If you have not seen Drive, which is also directed by Nicholas Winding Refn and stars Ryan Gosling, I definitely suggest you do. After seeing the trailer Only God Forgives is easily my most anticipated for this year.

Not much of movie news, but it's something used to create a movie! Beginning an all new script today, a horror one too. The title is 'Four Walls'. Pretty stoked to begin this new project!

Love the poster for Pain & Gain, can't wait to see that one. The World War Z poster is just uninspiring. I seriously think the film will flop, flop hard too.

The world war Z one kind of reminds me of the superhero posters like Iron Man 3 and the Avengers and its funny to me that it also has as a plane stunt in the trailer like Iron Man 3. I actually looking forward to WWZ, I want to see where they are going with it.

Very intersting. I'm in the process of writing a script as well, sort of a romantic drama called 'Sun Country'. Best of luck to you on your project Ace.

http://www.cnn.com/2....html?hpt=hp_t1

Ebert's first published review of a Bond movie was of YOLT, when he'd been movie reviewer for the Chicago Sun-Times for only a couple of months, and he gave it a mildly unfavorable review.  I'd just seen the movie and loved it, so I thought that this new movie critic was going to be awful.  But he liked a bunch of movies I liked, and he gave a strongly positive review to OHMSS, which redeemed him in my eyes.  Over time, I came to enjoy his reviews quite a bit, even when I didn't agree with him.  He tended to like his Bond to be spoof-like, but that didn't prevent him from giving strong positive reviews to CR and, most recently, to "Skyfall." 

 

He won a Pulitzer Prize and developed a national and international reputation as a film critic, but I'll always remember him from his early days writing in Chicago.  I'll miss him.  RIP

A new TV Spot for 'Man Of Steel'.

 

Unlike 'The Dark Knight Rises', it seems that this may be a modern superhero film where we don't know EVERY little moment and big sequence before we actually see it unfold on the big screen which is a great thing. The marketing is muted, but hopefully will gradually build without revealing every top moment.

Luc Besson's MALAVITA moved up to September 20th

Additionally, Relativity’s Malavita has been moved up from its original release date of October 18th to September 20th. The film stars Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Tommy Lee Jones and centers on notorious mafia family who gets relocated to Normandy as part of the witness protection program. Though they’re seemingly out of harm’s way, the family finds it hard to let go of some of their more colorful old habits and soon find themselves “handling things the ‘family’ way.”

Dianna Agron (Glee) and John D’Leo (Wanderlust) also star, and the pic will square off against the Hugh Jackman/Jake Gyllenhal thriller Prisoners, director Ron Howard’s racing drama Rush, and the Elizabeth Banks comedy Walk of Shame on its new September date.

 

I'm not sure that this move really does much to help the film, but getting to see it a month earlier is not a bad thing.  Can't wait to see what Luc Besson and Martin Scorcese have put together with this brilliant cast.


 
Also, regarding news that has been discussed in another thread regarding the future of the Fast & Furious franchise:
 
 
James Wan in talks to direct FAST & FURIOUS 7

Deadline now says that James Wan, director of Saw, Death Sentence, Insidious, and the upcoming The Conjuring and Insidious Chapter 2, is in talks to take over the franchise.

According to the site, a deal has not been signed yet, but Wan himself tweeted this tonight - "Vroom Vroooom..."

 

This could be great for the F&F franchise.  James Wan is a talented director, and I can't wait to see how he fares in moving from horror to action.
