J.J. Abrams' Teases "Stranger"

By
Not content with multiple movie projects -- including both the Star Trek and Star Wars franchises -- and television shows like the upcoming Almost Human, J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot production company has released a mysterious new teaser trailer for … something.

Titled Stranger, the minute-long teaser features ill-lit black-and-white footage that appears to show a man collapsing onto a beach, then wandering across it before disappearing into the darkness to be replaced by another -- or, perhaps, the same? -- man, facing the viewer, with his mouth sewn shut.

All of this is set to a piano score reminiscent of something Thom Yorke would doubtless approve of, while a voice-over announces "He arrived knowing nothing of himself. Who is he? Soon, he will know. Because what begins at the water shall end there. And what ends there shall once more begin. This is what happens when we come lost. Men vanish, men are erased -- and reborn."



The caption "Soon he will know" closes the video, with the words disappearing one by one so that the legend reads "Soon he will know," then "Soon he will," followed by "Soon will" and "Soon." What does it all mean? Right now, no one seems to know: Is it a new movie, a new TV show, a teaser for something we already know about (surely it's too early for a Star Wars: Episode VII teaser, right?) or something we've never heard of before?

Abrams is known for his love of the mystery box, and teasing audiences by asking them questions that they don't know the answer to, instead of something that they do know. Consider this just standard operating procedure for the Bad Robot, in that case -- not that that makes it any less frustrating that we have no idea just who or what this Stranger really is.

Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS on December 5th at 7:30 PM in Austin. MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS explores the turbulent life of Mary Stuart ( Saoirse Ronan ).

Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne alongside her cousin Elizabeth I ( Margot Robbie ), who rules as England’s Queen. Rivals in power and in love, and female monarchs in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty.

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

By
Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

By Matt Cummings
The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
