HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
Now, here's an interesting sf project: Deadline reports that Paramount will work on a film adaptation of Neal Stephenson's
novel SNOW CRASH which was named one of Time Magazine's 100 greatest English-language novels of all time. The story is set in a United States which is now controlled by corporations and the mafia. The plot revolves around a computer virus dubbed Snow Crash, which has the ability to transfer from the computer screen directly into the users, destroying their brains. The protagonist, named Hiro, a computer hacker and pizza delivery guy, steps in to try and stop the utter downfall of human civilization.

PITCH PERFECT
And here's something fun and relaxing for the weekend: the first trailer for musical comedy PITCH PERFECT which is ready to open up in cinemas later this October. The story of this comedy follows a college misfit who doesn't fit in with any of the school's social cliques. She ends up realizing a hidden singing talent, and is recruited into a singing group that battles other rival a Capella groups. The cast of the film is lead by Anna Kendrick and also includes hilarious Rebel Wilson and Brittany Snow.
Quite the musical affair here today, do you feel like singing a tune? Full errr umm Blue Moon?
ReplyDeleteI like them when they are done well and not just some rehash crap, so we shall see. If a song can save a movies life.
me is always singing a tune, cat, always!
DeleteI do admit it has been a very poor week in the movie news world and I had trouble finding anything remotely interesting today :( I'm even moving to Asia tomorrow due to this.
To asia. Hahaha must be a slow news day. Looks like a slow blog day too
ReplyDeleteit must be :) I'm not even sure what I will come up with for Monday and Tuesday :) It's been a dry period for a very long time now, no new trailers, no special news, nothing...
DeleteMaybe inventing some news would work. Then the studios could listen and we would get a good movie for a change. Does seem that unless you wantcto talk about remakes every two seconds there is nothing though.
DeleteI did have an idea on doing a post on epic places and events I'd like to see on film :) but I don't have the time to write it!
DeleteA film about the Alliance perhaps...
Deletethat would be overly epic :) A whole new genre of epicness methinks... Wonder who would play the main villain? Who looks like an ebil cat in Hollywood?
DeletePfft no one could play the cat, except the cat. Neat idea too, one day it will have to come due.
Deletemaybe Jane Fonda could play you, cat? Or Joanne Collins? Liza Minelli possibly if she is still alive :)
DeleteWow, Adam is so hot *sighs* I like singing along in the Payphone ~
ReplyDeleteThe trailer looks funny and entertaining like High School Musical :-) Hope all is well with you ~
he's an epitome of hotness!
DeleteIt is, thanks, hope you're having a heavenly weekend :)
Is it wrong to want those hands to be mine? Adam is brutally hot and I can't wait for him in American Horror Story.
ReplyDeleteI sing very well, to imaginary arena fans in the confines of the car. ;)
'tis not wrong. It's only natural. I wish I had his chest, belly and pelvis.... why are some men born with such bodies?
DeleteThat is some photo of Adam Levine! Yowza!
ReplyDeleteyowza indeed :)
DeleteUm, I'm sorry, did you say something after you mentioned Adam Levine?
ReplyDeletenothing overly special :) You see how I have to stoop to posting nakedness when I have no stories :)

ReplyDeleteI never knew Adam Levine had so many tattoos. Pitch perfect looks good, anna Hendrick is so hot
ReplyDeletesecond comment ;__;
he's a tattoo freak :) Glad you liked the hotness in the trailer too :)
DeletePerfect Pitch looks good and I usually don't like musicals. Maybe I just like the half naked women LOL
ReplyDeleteit must be that second thing :)
DeleteI'm with the Cat this time Dez. Nothing to be really thrilled about. The character Amy on Pitch Perfect is the one that intrigues me the most. The lead character, well that's been done to death.
ReplyDeleteyep, it has been a really tough period in the news world, nothing new to report :( I hope I will find something to write about on Monday and Tuesday when there are no news :(
DeleteDoes Adam have a tattoo in hindi? His tattooes are cool and his voice, but this guy not a hottie.
ReplyDeleteThe pitch slapped so no instruments? Lazy ass winter saturday evening movie. Not theatre material.
not a hottie? It's possible you need glasses, sister :)
DeleteHe is malnourished. And his legs are skinny not proportional to his body.
DeleteI like them both skinny and plump :) They are all gorgeous to me.
DeletePerfect Pitch looks fun~ I have seen the pic..supposedly he is really into yoga :D
ReplyDeleteglad you liked the trailer :)
DeleteI think I need a few batteries, and Adam Levine's poster. I'm in lust :) I'm gonna like Snow Crash too. Reminds me of Johnny Nuemonic. Is it what my son calls Cyberjunk? Cyber punk?
ReplyDelete.......dhole
I'm sending the poster livesized through mail.
DeleteOh boy; you're my hero Dezzy, lol.
Delete.........dhole
my cape is flapping in the wind :)
DeleteWhoa...that photo of Levine is whoa!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've heard of Snow Crash...I mean the book. My fellow book bloggers haven't reviewed this book too. It sounds good
totally whoa :) Shaped like a god.
Deletegreat
ReplyDeleteindeed
