BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Yellow Submarine Has Found It's Crew

Yellow Submarine Has Found It's Crew It's "all together now" for the cast of Robert Zemeckis' upcoming Beatles feature. Cary Elwes, Dean Lennox Kelly, Peter Serafinowicz and Adam Campbell are in negotiations to portray the members of the band in "Yellow Submarine," which the director is remaking for Disney. The original 1968 animated movie was based on the music by the Beatles and featured a storyline wherein a soldier called Old Fred meets up with the Beatles and travels in a yellow submersible to Pepperland. Among the group's encounters are the music-hating Blue Meanies. As with his recently released "A Christmas Carol," Zemeckis is making the movie using 3D performance-capture technology. The helmer, who also wrote the screenplay, is producing with his Imagemovers Digital partners Jack Rapke and Steve Starkey. The Beatles tribute band the Fab Four will be motion-captured as the ensemble for the musical performance sequences though -- si

Paranormal Activity 2 Found It's Director

Paranormal Activity 2 Found It's Director Paramount has hired screenwriter Michael R. Perry and director Kevin Greutert to create the sequel to 2009’s biggest surprise hit, “Paranormal Activity,” which scared up $151 million in worldwide grosses in the fall on a shoestring $15,000 budget and a shrewd, opt-in Web marketing campaign. Significantly, Paramount will unleash it in theaters on the pre-Halloween weekend of October 22, which sets it against that date’s reigning champion in previous years, the next installment in Lionsgate’s “Saw” series (this year would be “VII”). In a symbolic twist, Greutert made his directorial debut on the sixth “Saw” film, which grossed just $31 million worldwide, with observers thinking that the franchise may be bleeding dry. Jason Blum and Oren Peli, who masterminded the first “Activity,” are producing the second iteration. Steven Schneider will serve as executive producer. “These guys get it, and the fans won’t be disappointed,” said Peli of Perry

Transformers 3 Less Explosives and Robots

Transformers 3 Less Explosives and Robots So can we expect more thunderous sound in the third installment? Although the number of robots increased significantly from the first film for the second, the third film -- which will hit theaters in summer 2011, won’t be as robot-heavy and there will be fewer explosions, a tight-lipped Bay said after the Q+A. Not very thrilling, huh? The hunky pieces of metal in the "Transformers" films lose a lot of their thunderous power without all that sound. It's the clinks and whooshes and BOOMS caused by the massive appliances that complete the larger-than-life experience of the films. Director Michael Bay recently joined sound re-recording mixers Greg P. Russell and Gary Summers, and supervising sound editors Ethan Van Der Ryn and Erik Aadahl to discuss the sound art (and science) of "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" at the Cary Grant Theatre on the Sony Pictures lot. “I have like 2,000 people — through their artistry — maki

What we do know is it features corporate espionage, is set partly in "the architecture of the mind", blurs dreams and reality, and features cast that also includes Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Michael Caine, Ellen Page, Ken Wanatabe, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy and Tom Berenger.

"She gets to work with him, and she's (going to be) doing Mad Max 4 with Miller," Baruchel said. The actor, who counts Palmer as a very good friend after working with her on the Sorcerer film, said he didn't know the character's exact name, but believed it was the female lead. "She's the main chick in Fury Road," he said. "She's going to be there for over a year. It's really, really cool."

The Lovely Bones Movie Review By:Windy

The Lovely Bones Movie Review By:Windy Windy has been a busy girl this week. I don't know when she finds the time to write reviews for my site and work on her own . We are so glad she is a part of the SandwichJohnFilms team. “The Lovely Bones”, based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Alice Sebold and directed by Peter Jackson, is the story about a family dealing with the crisis of their murdered 14-year old daughter, Susie Salmon, and her father’s hunt for her killer. Most of the story is told from Susie’s point of view after her murder, as she watches her family struggle to cope with her loss and search for her killer. She is stuck in what her younger brother refers to as “the in-between” – a place between Earth and heaven – because she refuses to let go of her family or her killer. Susie, played by Saoirse Ronan (“Atonement”) gives a moving portrayal of a spirit running a gamut of emotions, starting with confusion, moving to fear, and ultimately release.

Paul Reubens Talks Pee Wee Movie And Star Wars

Paul Reubens Talks Pee Wee Movie And Star Wars Paul Reubens is in the mist of a comeback to the stage and big screen. I was never a fan of Pee Wee's Playhouse, the fact that I lived in Japan during the time the show was on air. Could be one of the reasons. I did love his role in Cheech & Chong's Next Movie . Classic. Reubens has been on a roller coaster ride with his career, but who doesn't love a comeback story? After 18 or so years, he's back. The Pee Wee Show is a live stage show now playing at Club Nokia in Los Angeles. It's a stage version of his Playhouse television program and it is absolutely fantastic. It really was a lot of fun. After the show, Paul had a little Q&A and was asked if he was going to make another movie. We all knew he had plans to make a Pee Wee's Playhouse film, but details were sort of scarce. Tonight he went into more detail about the plot of the movie. The movie, we never left the Playhouse. You never saw Puppet Land. I mea

The set pictures are just some candid and random shots. Doesn't tell much about the movie. But I am excited to see the pictures either way.
