Panic Attack! blir "nästa District 9"
In God We Trust - En kortfilm av Jason Reitman
Varför Breaking Dawn måste göras till film
Här är några exempel ur texten från CHUD(läs hela texten här):
"Breaking Dawn opens with Bella Swan, the lacteal heroine of the series, finally getting married to Edward Cullen, the mopey vampire hero. They go off to honeymoon on Isle Esme, a Brazilian island the Cullen clan owns (this is already ridiculous beyond belief. Imagine a vampire going snorkeling; it basically happens in this book), and Edward is afraid to fuck his new bride. The reason: he's super strong and she's just a human - Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex type of situation here. But Bella wears him down and Edward throws it in her - and knocks her the fuck out, leaving her badly bruised.
Let's go over that again: Edward fucks Bella into unconsciousness. This alone should have you running to Fandango to pre-order your tickets, but it only gets better.
"The baby in Bella's belly starts growing incredibly fast. And it starts hurting Bella, as each kick it gives has the super strength of a vampire behind it. As it grows, Bella gets sicker, and then the good stuff starts. The baby kicks so hard it breaks Bella's ribs and then severs her spine. Are you imagining Kristen Stewart wearing a fake pregnancy belly and pretending to have been suddenly crippled by her own fetus? Because I am and it's making me laugh and laugh and laugh."
Det där är nog för att få mig att vilja se filmen, men det blir bara sjukare och sjukare. Så in på CHUD och läs resten, tro mig det är roligt!

Sebastian Tipsar Om Saker Som Är Awesome
Jag har bråkat med Logic och Pro Tools i flera timmar och då känns det bra att få sprida lite bra musik till massorna. Dagens band är Mansions från Louisville. Jag har inte så mycket att säga om dem förutom att de är på turné med The Get Up Kids och om inte det får dig intresserad kan vi tyvärr inte längre vara vänner.
På myspace lyssnar du, passa på nu innan det börjar kosta pengar.
Trailer för säsong nio av Scrubs
Edward Woodward avlider, 79 år gammal.
Igår avled, till mångas stora sorg, Edward Woodward. Idag är han förmodligen mest jänd för sin medverkan i Simon Peggs och Edgar Wrights film Hot fuzz, men han har medverkat i klassisker så som The Wickerman(1973), tv-serien Callan(1974) och tv-serien The Equalizer(1985).
Läs här vad Edgar Wright har skrivit om Edward Woodward och hans bortgång. Och här för att läsa Simon Peggs ord om Edward Woodward.
Trailer till Crazy Heart
Förra året kom Mickey Rourke från ingenstans med filmen The Wrestler, som gav han rejäl Oscar-buzz, men vann tyvärr inte. Men nu kommer här Jeff Bridges i rollen som en country-artist i filmen Crazy Heart, som många tror kan leda till att Bridges äntligen vinner sin Oscar. Han har blivit nomierad för bästa bi-roll några ggr och för bästa huvudroll en gång för filmen Starman, men han har tyvärr aldrig vunnit. Jeff Bridges är en skådis som enligt mig alltid levererar i allt han är med i, så lite priser kan han gärna få vinna.

Kick-Ass Teaser Trailer
Som bekant är Kick-Ass baserad på Mark Millars serie med samma namn(som jag tyvärr inte har läst ännu). Men vad handlar den om då, undrar ni kanske?
"As any good superhero would, he chooses a new name — Kick-Ass — assembles a suit and mask to wear, and gets to work fighting crime. There’s only one problem standing in his way: Kick-Ass has absolutely no superpowers. His life is forever changed as he inspires a subculture of copy cats, is hunted by assorted violent and unpleasant characters, and meets up with a pair of crazed vigilantes, including an 11-year-old sword-wielding dynamo, Hit Girl (Chloë Moretz) and her father, Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage)."
Men nu har alltså den första teasern till Matthew Vaughns efterlängtade Kick-Ass kommit. Tyvärr är det en så kallad "greenband"-trailer det handlar om, alltså inget blod, inga svordomar osv. Vilket ju känns rätt dumt när det är en film som är R inte PG13. Men frukta inte, det är ändå en rätt bra trailer. Den kanske inte når upp till den grad av awesomeness som comic-contrailern hade(kolla upp på youtube, borde finnas bootlegad).

Joss Whedon bjuder $10,000 på rättigheterna till Terminator
Vi fick höra tidigare idag att rättigheterna till Terminator är till salu. Joss Whedon la ett generöst bud och skrev ett öppet brev till ägarna:
An Open Letter to the Terminator Owners. From a Very Important Hollywood Mogul
Dear Sirs/Ma'ams,
I am Joss Whedon, the mastermind behind Titan A.E., Parenthood (not the movie) (or the new series) (or the one where 'hood' was capitalized 'cause it was a pun), and myriad other legendary tales. I have heard through the 'grapevine' that the Terminator franchise is for sale, and I am prepared to make a pre-emptive bid RIGHT NOW to wrap this dealio up. This is not a joke, this is not a scam, this is not available on TV. I will write a check TODAY for $10,000, and viola! Terminator off your hands.
No, you didn't miscount. That's four -- FOUR! -- zeroes after that one. That's to show you I mean business. And I mean show business. Nikki Finke says the Terminator concept is played. Well, here's what I have to say to Nikki Finke: you are a fine journalist and please don't ever notice me. The Terminator story is as formative and important in our culture -- and my pretend play -- as any I can think of. It's far from over. And before you Terminator-Owners (I have trouble remembering names) rush to cash that sweet cheque, let me give you a taste of what I could do with that franchise:
1) Terminator... of the Rings! Yeah, what if he time-travelled TOO far... back to when there was dragons and wizards? (I think it was the Dark Ages.) Hasta La Vista, Boramir! Cool, huh? "Now you gonna be Gandalf the Red!" RRRRIP! But then he totally helps, because he's a cyborg and he doesn't give a s#&% about the ring -- it has no power over him! And he can carry it AND Frodo AND Sam AND f@%& up some orcs while he's doing it. This stuff just comes to me. I mean it. (I will also offer $10,000 for the Lord of the Rings franchise).
2) More Glau. Hey. There's a reason they're called "Summer" movies.
3) Can you say... musical? Well don't. Even I know that's an awful idea.
4) Christian Bale's John Connor will get a throat lozenge. This will also help his Batwork (ten grand for that franchise too, btw.)
5) More porn. John Connor never told Kyle Reese this, but his main objective in going to the past was to get some. What if there's a lot of future-babies that have to be made? Cue wah-wah pedal guitar -- and dollar signs!
6) The movies will stop getting less cool.
Okay. There's more -- this brain don't quit! (though it has occasionally been fired) -- but I think you get my drift. I really believe the Terminator franchise has only begun to plumb the depths of questioning the human condition during awesome stunts, and I'd like to shepherd it through the next phase. The money is there, but more importantly, the heart is there. But more importantly, money. Think about it. End this bloody bidding war before it begins, and put the Terminator in the hands of someone who watched the first one more than any other movie in college, including "Song of Norway" (no current franchise offer).
Sincerely, Joss Whedon.
Mark Millar intar regissörsstolen
Här är vad Millar hade att säga på sin hemsida:
"But this is one of several big surprises planned for next year and you’ll hear a bit more about this in February when we start to release details. What is it? Who is it about? Well, that’s all a secret for now, but I learned a lot from Kick-Ass and love having the same creative freedom I have with comics when I work in cinema. I never want to be a studio bitch and go in there pitching for them to love me. The closest I came to this was a couple of calls regarding Superman, but pretty much none of my plans ever revealed as I didn’t like the idea of anyone nicking them.
Similarly, I don’t like the idea of asking for funding and justifying scenes with the money-men so I’m doing what Matthew Vaughn did with Kick-Ass and just making it outside the system with private investors. The financing is all secured and the movie stands or falls on how good I can make it, doing what Matthew did and just selling it once completed.
As you can imagine, I couldn’t be more excited. More as it happens, but this might just beat out War Heroes and American Jesus as my follow-ups to the Wanted and Kick-Ass movies. Have two other pictures about to go into development (and Wanted and Kick-Ass 2, of course), but I think you need to scare the Hell out of yourself every once in a while and something totally new like directing should do the trick."
Ännu en av Warren Ellis serier blir köpt av Hollywood
Här är vad Variety hade att säga:
"Newly minted banner Vigilante Entertainment is launching operations by developing Warren Ellis’ comicbook series "Black Summer" with Ryne Pearson ("Knowing") tapped to adapt.
"Summer," published by Avatar Press in 2007, centers on superhero team the Seven Guns, a group of scientist-adventurers who modified their own bodies for street-fighting in order to take back their West Coast city from a corrupt police force, criminal local government and rapacious private security forces."
Utöver att Ellis serier förvandlas till stora hollywood-produktioner så är han själv även lite aktuell som manusförfattare i Hollywood. I juli i sommras avslöjades det att Warren Ellis håller på att jobba på ett manus till en "Arthurian"film/Excalibur remake. Läs mer på /Film
Teaser för den sista säsongen av Lost
Som rubriken antyder har det kommit en teaser inför den sista säsongen av Lost, men vänta er inte att se nånting nytt. Den nya teasern visar absolut ingenting från den nya säsongen, då det sägs avlöja alldeles för mycket. Här är vad E! online har att säga om saken:
"I’m hearing from Lost sources that every single shot of the first few episodes are so revealing that the producers have convinced ABC to NOT SHOW A SINGLE FRAME before the new season airs. No promo scenes, no photos, no nada! So you will be completely in the dark, but it is for good reason: The twists they’re planning are so good, you will WANT to be surprised. Trust me. Your mind gonna go kaplewey."
Trots att man inte får se nånting kan jag inte undgå att bli hur hypad som helst.
