NEW 'CHAPPIE' POSTERS
HUGH JACKMAN'S SF MOVIE
We're having a robot Monday today at HOLLYWOOD SPY, people, starting with brand new posters for Hugh Jackman's science fiction drama CHAPPIE from DISTRICT 9 director Neill Blomkamp! This dystopian tale is set to open in cinemas March 6th also starring Sigourney Weaver, Dev Patel and Sharlto Copley.
HUMANITY'S LAST HOPE ISN'T HUMAN
In the near future, crime is patrolled by an oppressive mechanized police force. But now, the people are fighting back. When one police droid, CHAPPIE, is stolen and given new programming, he becomes the first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself. As powerful, destructive forces start to see CHAPPIE as a danger to mankind and order, they will stop at nothing to maintain the status quo and ensure that CHAPPIE is the last of his kind. His life, his story, will change the way the world looks at robots and humans forever.

BAFTA 2015 RED CARPET
GLAMOROUS FASHION REPORT!
And speaking of Brits, BAFTAs, the British Film Academy awards were held last night and we're bringing you a quick fashion report from the red carpet. Among the ladies we liked best Lea Seydoux in sunny yellow and stunningly gorgeous DA VINCI'S DEMONS star and Sam Claflin's wife Laura Haddock. Natalie Dormer had the most intriguing lace gloves, while Reese Witherspoon opted for revealing strange looking cleavage that we've seen at recent VANITY FAIR cover. Among gents our most beloved Luke Evans, Tom Hiddleston (who has turned 34 today!) and Henry Cavill were all absolutely dashing!
From everything I've seen of CHAPPIE it almost looks like a Short Circuit remake. Not that it would be a bad thing...
ReplyDeleteit does look very engaging and heartbreaking too! A deeper robot movie compared to Transformerscrap :)
DeleteJust to be a total fangirl for a moment, it's Tom Hiddleston's birthday today, you know. He's 34.
ReplyDeleteis it? OMG, we must announce it at our Facebook and Twitter pages!
Deletewait, it's short circuit on steroids... I will see the next one film and dapper gentlemen and lovely ladies... and happy birthday Tommy boy!
ReplyDeletewe truly wish him the happiest one!
DeleteDistrict 9 was a GREAT movie.
ReplyDeleteAnd you can't go wrong with Tom H and Luke E on your page!
every day is a happy day when we have Hiddlestud or Lukey on our page
DeleteCHAPPIE looks great. I was worried about OVERLORDS, but it looks ok. The British often do these things well, though.
ReplyDeleteyep, it might not be well done visually, but Brits put more heart into the story
DeleteHey with a title like Robot Overlords, how could it go wrong?
ReplyDeleteexactly LOL
DeleteChappie reminds me of a character that used to be on a late night syfy review show....I don't exactly remember the name. "SciFi Theater 7000"?
ReplyDeleteAll the celebs look fab! That yellow dress is stunning! So is Cavill!
Get ready for robots.
We do like that yellow dress!
DeleteI'm glad Natalie Dormer grew her hair back to normal after her hunger games role
ReplyDeleteyep, the trend of ladies shaving their heads is/was disgusting
DeleteI love the deep purple color of Reese's dress. I think she looks great, weird cleavage and all :)
ReplyDeletehave you seen how she photoshopped it at VANITY FAIR cover! It was difficult to look at :) She seems a bit crazy lately
DeleteI don't read magazines, so I missed the cover. Ever since she went on that drunken rant, I've lost respect for her. Sweetheart she isn't. I still like the dress though ;)
DeleteI think you saw the cover at my Facebook a few days ago :)
DeleteBeautiful gowns.
ReplyDeleteI was terrified of robots as a child. It's only been in the past few years that I've been able to comfortably watch robot movies.
They are the weird species, just like clowns...
DeleteYay...more science fiction! My favorite of course! Cheers,
ReplyDeletewe are ever so happy when we can announce a new sf or historical project :)
DeleteRobots can't act. Terrible facial expression. That's why I hate that guy in the red and yellow outfit. What's his name again....
ReplyDeletehe whose name shouldn't be pronounced here? I hate him too.... Who is he? Let us hate him namelessly....
DeleteOkay. Will do.
DeleteRobots? Let them come! The story sounds good!
ReplyDeleteGreetings
