HAUNTING TRAILER FOR MATTHEW GOODE'S "BURNING MAN"! CRAZY POSTER FOR "ICE AGE CONTINENTAL DRIFT"! J.J.ABRAMS WILL HELM "STAR TREK 2"! BORIS KODJOE IN "RESIDENT EVIL RETRIBUTION"

Ah, poor Scrat, he's in trouble again as you can see on the poster of ICE AGE: CONTINENTAL DRIFT. The fourth installment of
the super popular animated saga is ready to premiere in summer 2012 facing the adorable prehistoric creatures with ice caps melting. Separated from the rest of the herd, they will use an iceberg as a makeshift ship, which will launch them on an epic seafaring quest. They will encounter exotic sea creatures, explore a brave new world, and battle ruthless pirates. And Scrat's reunion with his cursed nut will catapult him to places no prehistoric squirrel has gone before. Each of the previous movies has earned from $200 million to $300 million more than the one before.
SHORT HOLLYWOOD HEADLINES
As "Vulture" reports, J.J. Abrams has officially signed on to direct STAR TREK II. The long anticipated sequel to the marvelous sf blockbuster from 2009 will again have the old cast
together including Karl Urban, Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine. It is not known when will the film come out, but the script is currently in works. After Wentworth Miller who was the male lead in the last part of the RESIDENT EVIL saga, the male star of RESIDENT EVIL RETRIBUTION will be Boris Kodjoe who will again join Milla Jovovich and Sienna Guillory in the fifth part of the sf franchise which is currently being filmed in Toronto with the premiere scheduled for Autumn 2012. Always funny, Nathan Lane has joined Julianne Moore and Greg Kinnear in THE ENGLISH TEACHER in which he will play a drama teacher. As you know, Lane is also playing Evil Queen's servant in Tarsem's SNOW WHITE alongside Julia Roberts.

There haven't been many trailers released recently, but I have an interesting one for you today. It is the haunting and inspiring
trailer for BURNING MAN, which stars super charming and deeply charismatic Matthew Goode from WATCHMEN and LEAP YEAR as an English chef with a chic restaurant on Bondi Beach who is trying to put his life and his relationship with his little son back on track while surrounded by women who are all trying to help him change his reckless ways after he had experienced a tragic accident. The cast also includes two ladies from Australia: young Serbian actress Bojana Novakovic, whom you've seen alongside Mel Gibson in EDGE OF DARKNESS and in DRAG ME TO HELL, and always talented Rachel Griffiths from BROTHERS AND SISTERS and MURIEL'S WEDDING.

  1. Hi Dezz - Great trailer for Burning Man...lots going on and the cast seems very solid - it's going on my list.

    It never ceases to amaze me how many movies a little gang of prehistoric creatures can star in and, like their futuristic cousin the Energizer battery, they just keep going and going and going...and now they are going at it again. But they are adorable, so I'm sure I'll be see it with my daughter.

    By the way...got your comment on my Cariboo post...left you a reply! :-)

    Cheers, Jenny

  7. Love the poster for the burning man.

    I was going to say that I'm surprised they keep making the Ice Age movies...until I got to the part where you added how much more each movie makes from the last. Wow.

    ReplyDelete
  8. yep, the last one earned about 800 million, the one before 600 and the first one 400 :) Which means this one should earn about one billion :)

    yep, it was about time for them to start working on the new STAR TREK. And someone should start a new TV show too!

    @DWei
    well, ICE AGE saga was one of the very few ones which didn't really lose the quality and charm with the sequels.

    @Adam

  28. Burning Man looks heavy, in a good way. And Ice Age? At first glance, I thought "Again?!," but I have a weird fear obsession with the sea so I'll watch it for the creatures :)
