Real Movie Views

I have always preferred Pixar animated films in comparison to Dreamworks and the new movie in 2008 from them looks stunning! Pixar have always lead the field of CGI with the Toy Stories and Nemo (with great water effects).

Plot:

The year is 2700. WALL*E, a robot, spends every day doing what he was made for. But soon, he will discover what he was meant for.

Watch the trailer and you will see that the animation is more realistic than the normal almost “cartoon” look. Look forward to seeing more of WALL*E in 2008 – will keep you all posted!

Let me start off by saying I have always been a huge Vin Diesel fan, I think he gets a lot of bad press but I really rate him as a very enjoyable actor. So it’s been a while since his last film and some new photos of his new film “Babylon A.D.” were released recently.

The Plot:

Veteran-turned-mercenary Thoorop (Diesel) takes the high-risk job of escorting a woman from Russia to China. Little does he know that she is host to an organism that a cult wants to harvest in order to produce a genetically modified Messiah.

Sounds like a potentially great movie, will keep you guys updated when I know more

Have just seen the headlines on the BBC website, an extract:

“He was found unconscious at the apartment and pronounced dead,” the New York Police Department said, adding that pills were found near the body.

Police are reportedly investigating if the Australian actor, who earned an Oscar nomination for Brokeback Mountain, died of a drug overdose.

The 28-year-old was found dead in the flat at around 1530 (2030 GMT).

Police said they did not suspect foul play and that his body had been discovered surrounded by pills.”

I always enjoyed the majority of his films and many people said that his performance in the new Batman film “Dark Knight” was his best to date. My thoughts go out to his family.

I for one loved the first 2 Fast and Furious films. Great cars, good looking women and a not so bad story line in both films. I didn’t watch the third mainly because it looked like a straight to DVD film with none of the original cast.

A nice surprise to see Vin Diesel and Paul Walker as a possible return double combo for the fourth installment. Due in 2009 its a long way away, I will of course keep everyone updates as soon as I know more!

That’s right a new movie poster for Knight Rider has been released with a Koenigsegg, which just so happens to be one of the fastest production cars available.

The “Hoff” doesn’t appear to be attached to the project but the poster looks rather sweet! I will keep my eyes and ears on alert for more details!

Plot: Based on the classic 1960’s Japanese animated series, The Wachowski Brothers (Matrix) direct the story of a young race car driver as he attempts to obtain glory, with the help of his family and the Mach 5, the advanced car created by his father. Emile Hirsch stars as Speed, Christina Ricci as Trixie, and Mathew Fox as Racer X. Even if you weren’t a fan of the tv series, all indications so far point to this being unlike anything ever seen before on the big screen.

Looks like a good fun watch with some great visual effects, not entirely sure on the storyline though!

Plot Summary: Based upon Marvel’s iconic Super Hero, “Iron Man” tells the story of Tony Stark, a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes captivity. Upon his return to America, Tony must come to terms with his past. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications, he dons his powerful armor and vows to protect the world as Iron Man.

I am a big fan of Robert Downey Jr, always have been but as far as Iron Man goes, I know nothing of the history of the character. The trailer looks ok, certainly a watch on DVD but I think i’ll leave it till then!

I have always really admired the majority of the batman films (well maybe not Batman and Robin). So when I first saw Batman Begins I was so glad that the franchise was back on track.

Tim Burton really stamped his authority by starting the series but this next offering from Christopher Nolan was also a nice surprise. I think Christian Bale has put his own dark take to the role of Batman which works really well.

The villain in the Dark Knight is none other than the Joker, played by Heath Ledger – which in all honesty has big shoes to fill after big Jack.

Some of the released stills look amazing and im sure the strong cast will do this film justice – watch this space!
