HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
Variety reports today that gorgeous blond
Amber Heard could join young

an ambitious young man trying to get ahead in his entry-level job at a telecommunications firm. After he makes a costly mistake, the company CEO agrees not to turn him in if he spies on a rival company.

Jay Baruchel are returning to the film which scored huge success a few years ago.
ANNA KARENINA TRAILER
Now, you know I ain't watching the movie since I can't stand Keira Knightley's artificial facial expressions and acting, but some of you might like the trailer for
ANNA KARENINA. Directed by
Joe Wright (whose another film, ATONEMENT, Keira ruined before), the film,
looking rather like something
Baz Luhrmann would make, is ready to premier this November in US and September in Europe. Adapted from Leo Tolstoy's classic novel the story unfolds in its original late-19th-century Russia high-society setting and powerfully explores the capacity for love that surges through the human heart, from the passion between adulterers to the bond between a mother and her children. As Anna
questions her happiness, change comes to her family, friends, and community. The cast also includes
Jude Law as Karenin,
Aaron Johnson as strangely looking Vronski,
Matthew McFadyen as Oblonsky,
Emily Watson...

I just saw that MONSTERS UNIVERSITY trailer earlier today. I hope it's as good as the first.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the first film, but this one looks cute ;)
DeleteThat makes two of us, Dezz.
Deletestrange you haven't seen it, Blue, there seem to be lots of blue monsters in it :)
DeleteParanoia's cast is amazing!! I miss Julian Mcmahon. Loved him in nip/ tuck!
ReplyDeleteKelly (from my kindle. I'm too lazy to log in ;)
Yep, we miss our doctor Christian :)
DeleteDoesn't Amber Heard take a great photo! :)
ReplyDelete...I'm looking forward to Pixar's prequel to Monster's Inc., as the original film is one of my favourite Pixar movies.
she sure does :) She was supposed to be Red Sonja back when Rodriguez was planning to make the film and Rose McGowen broke her leg...
DeleteI can see her getting some good roles over the next few years. She's a good actress.
Deleteshe will probably go TV though, like she did with the cancelled PLAYBOY CLUB
DeleteI must admit I liked Monsters originally and will have to see this!
ReplyDeletebut only in about a year or more :)
DeleteNot excited by Anna but the Monsters prequel and How To Train Your Dragon 2 got me a nerd jumpin' for some great animation! I'm so excited now. You made my day.
ReplyDeleteglad to hear it, Mickey! I can't wait for HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON either!
DeleteI love all the movies listed here. Especially Anna Karenina. Monsters looks funny.
ReplyDeletesomething for everyone today :)
DeleteI can't wait for that Monsters Inc prequel.
ReplyDeleteit will be a popular one
DeleteLOVED Monsters Inc - this one looks fun too! :)
ReplyDeleteit sure does :)
DeleteWoooohoooo! So excited for Monster University! GREAT CONCEPT! Can't wait to show this trailer to my kids!!! :D
ReplyDeletehope you're taking them to see BRAVE this month too :)
DeleteAnna Karenina looks like it was gorgeously filmed. I know you don't like Keira, but she didn't seem too over-the-top in that clip. I hope it's good. I like a nice romantic epic sometimes. :)
ReplyDeleteyep, I like the visuals too and I love romantic films as well, but not with the KK wench :)
DeleteOh my gosh! oh my gosh! I LOVE Monsters University!!!! I'm sooo looking forward to it.
ReplyDeletea whole year to wait :)
DeleteMy Gawd, is Jude Law so old now that he's playing the cuckolded husband and not the hot young lover? Time waits for no man, it's true.
ReplyDeleteyep, poor Jude, it must mean we are getting older too since he was/is the sex symbol of our times....
DeleteWhen will pixar learn? Disney screwed up by making sequels to everything and now they are too. No need for it. Especially a crap prequel. Hate those almost as much as remakes. Wow this person is about to die. Oh wait they are alive and well in the future. Stupid.
ReplyDeleteI shall make you some mint tea, cat, we need to relax your nerves a bit :PPP
DeletePfft prequels get me on a rant, but the tea I may need as well, and stupid nerves, don't even get me started on those..haha
Deleteyep, we shall give you some sedatives with the cat grass :)
Deleteim super excited about the monsters inc preque, shame we have to wait a year for it
ReplyDeleteit will pass in no time :)
DeleteReally like the Monster series, I just have to convince my nephew to go so I have an excuse to see it! Amber Heard looks amazing O_O
ReplyDeleteglad my boys like Amber's pic, I knew I would make your day with it :)
Deletemonsters inc needed a sequel, cant' believe it took this long
ReplyDeletemore than ten years! Quite strange....
DeleteI loved Monsters Inc and will be looking forward to the prequel. I also happen to like Kiera Knightly and Jude Law so will be interested to see Anna Karenina
ReplyDeleteI do love Jude Law as well! Wish he was a bigger star in Hollywood.
DeleteOh, that blonde looks like a gorgeous bombshell!!! Totally fit to costar with one of the godly HUNKSworth brothers ;)
ReplyDeleteand she is a lesbian :) which probably gives her an even bigger plus with boys :)
Deletea biggerrr.... plus? ;)
Deletebigggggerrrr plus and biggggerrr other things and parts :)
DeleteI'm fairly excited for the new Pixar movie. Hopefully it doesn't turn out to be total garbage like the last one they made.
ReplyDeletewhat was the last one they made? I forgot... I generally prefer Disney and DreamWorks to Pixar.
DeleteKeira's acting is a crime. Looks like she's ruining this film like she's done all the others. I just don't get why she's so popular. Ah well...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for Monsters University. That's going top be great.:)
and just imagine if that role went to Winslet for example...
DeleteMonster University looks kinda like a cash in
ReplyDeleteI agree!
DeleteI love the teasers for Monsters University. This is going to be one of Pixar's better ones.
ReplyDeletepeople seem to like it :)
DeletePrequel, what sequel is so yesterday so they are trying prequel. Why am I complaining, give me pixar anyday I can handle it.
ReplyDeleteI would like Monsters University.
Liam Hemsworth - hmm :)

DeleteMonsters University looks like a fun movie. I've been meaning to watch more animated films.
ReplyDeleteyep, it should be a fun one :)
DeleteI just made an agreement with my daughter to go see Monsters University (even though she'll be a teen by then). he he he!! I love the original movie!!
ReplyDeleteParanoia sounds like a great film - very intriguing.
