Extra tid-bit:On the weekend of the trailer's release,the movies popularity went up 1840% at imdb.com

Knowing

I just finished watching Knowing moments ago.The movie stars Nicolas Cage and Rose Byrne.The movie is about a 50 year old "Note" filled with numbers which turned out to be dates and coordinates of all major disasters that has happened in the past five decades as well as events that hasn't happened yet.That's where the movie revolves in.Trying to figure out if the numbers were true and where it will happen.Frankly,the title fits the movie.You already know what happens next.The story is full of cliches.Some of the effects aren't that good.Still one could like the movie but it doesn't have that suspense that you'd expect from this type of movie.From the movie's trailer you could easily figure out that aliens are somewhat involved.I can't believe that the guy that brought us I,Robot and the Crow could make this C movie.I give it a 4 out of 10.

A new Dawn Replaces the Ice

Check out the trailer for the third installment to the Ice Age franchise,Ice Age-Dawn of the Dinosaurs.

Valkyrie

I just saw the film.It's about one of the attempted assassination of Hitler.Bryan Singer did a remarkable job.The film is compelling,full of drama and suspence that will have you holding on to your seats in waiting to see what happens next.The movie takes its suspenseful effect once Stauffenberg(Tom Cruise) starts the first moves of the operation.A well crafted script and well suited directorial eyes.

Anyone?

Considered as one of the best of 2 time Academy Award Winner Sir Michael Caine."Is Anybody there?" tells the story about a ten year old boy living in an old people's home run by his parents.While his parents are busy going through everyday challenges and crisis,he roams around the house tape recording the residents and wonders what happens to them when they die.The boy has a lonely existance until a new tenant comes in.An old magician full of spite and has a mysterious past.The film tells the story of this very odd couple.Facing life's challenges,one learning to live and seize the moment while the other tries to face his complicated past.

Watchmen

I just recently saw Zack Snyder's adaptation of Watchmen.It is based on the graphic novel of the same name by Alan Moore(V For Vendetta and League of Extra Ordinary Gentlemen).I have to say Snyder did a great job of bringing it to life.For more than 20 years of waiting and attempting to make the movie,I can say the wait was worth it.The film follows the Dark Knight in liberating the comic book movies.It's a super hero-Anti hero film.The film showcases a perfect blend of sound,effects,action,plot and a breath-taking visuals that really brings the feel of the original graphic novel.Though Snyder didn't stick to the original story in the novel,he still brings closer feel to that story.The film brings not only effects but well talented actors.Especially Jackie Earle Haley who played Rorschach.He brought him to life.A little downside is his grunted voice whom we may compare to Christian Bale's Batman.I also loved the music.Music for that time,1985,especially "The Sound of Silence".It really matched the scene.But I didn't quite like the use of "Ride of the Valkyries" in the sequence of the Vietnam War.The movie is full of dark stories of heroes and their trials .Like Batman and Spiderman who always ask the question if what their doing hurts the ones they love or do the world really need them.The novel asks the question "Who watches the Watchmen?"The film shows us what that question meant.Who watches those we depend our lives to and are they really the right ones.Alan Moore didn't approve of making this into film saying that it will not present the right mood and purpose of the novel.Well,I can say that he should watch the Watchmen.It faithfully delivers and will be loved ny the novel fans as well as bring much curiousity to the new generation.I give it an 9 out of 10.

News on the Dark Knight Follow-up

There has been latest news about the follow-up to the Dark Knight.According to the execs,the third installment will be called Battle for Gotham.It will show the rise and fall of Gotham City,so expect a lot of action and probably an R rating.In talks to play one of the villains in the film is Johnny Depp who is rumored to play the riddle.Probably the biggest news is that Academy Award winning director James Cameron(Titanic0 will have a part in the film.He and his team will providing the CG of Heath Ledger's the Joker.There will be a small part for the joker in the third movie.Cameron was brought up because his team has reportedly perfected human CG as it was used in his upcoming film Avatar.News,news and more news and details will be coming in the next days.For me,they should probably change the title.Or maybe they will.

Pinoy Transformers

Take a look at these pictures.It's the Transformers(Pinoy Style).Filipino Vehicles that are more than meets the eye.

Hauntings

Opening this March 27, is The Haunting in Connecticut.A new scary film based on the true story about a family who lived inside a former funeral parlor in Southington, Connecticut in 1986 to 1987.It's creepy and has a lot of shockers and frighteners.If you like scary films,be sure to check this one out.

Wild Things Trailer

Finally,the teaser trailer for Where the Wild Things Are was just released.It first was aired at the end of Ellen.I can personally say that this would be a great film.Spike Jonze still has his magic.But I can see why the company are sort of having problems that the movie might be a bit too much for the children.I know they'll work things out.Watch the trailer and see if it's not for the kids.

Drink too much?

The Hangover is a comedy about a group of friends who go on a stag party and looses the groom as well as finding a baby in the room and other accidents.Just see the trailer for yourselves.It's like a warning for us in case we drank too much.
