Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles teaser trailer and TV spot!

You may or may not have already seen this, but I just had to put this up on here when I saw this on Empire Magazine's website:

 

Further details of the plot haven't been released yet but it looks like to me from this first teaser trailer that the director Jonathan Liebesman has made this film a sort of new Spiderman film with Megan Fox being cast as April O'Neil (who in the original story of "The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" was a former lab assistant that becomes the only human friend of the turtles after they save her life from robots and she then helps them in their fight against evil by doing all the work in public that the turtles can't as they live underground in the sewers with their rat sensei Splinter) as a female Harry Osbourne who finds out that her dead father created "The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" so as to create heroes (to paraphrase from this teaser trailer).
 
But I could be wrong it is just a teaser trailer after all!
 
Anyhew...If you are like me and are a fan of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles you'll know that there seems to be missing in this trailer Splinter the rat sensei who teaches the turtles to fight evil using ninjitsu whereas he like to fight using his wooden stick, you needn't worry there will be a Splinter who was as Empire say was played on set by Danny Woodburn who you may or may not recognise as one of the dwarves from "Mirror Mirror" in a performance capture suit but was also voiced by Tony Shalhoub who you may or may not recognise as the alien from Men In Black who has his head blown off but it then regrows his head back.
 
As you can see from this new TV spot:
 
 
 
Whoopi Goldberg, Will Arnett who you may or may not recognise from "Blades of Glory" who played the evil brother of the team Stranz and Fairchild who tries to kill Will Ferrel's character before skating out to perform with his sister as ex American president JFK and Marilyn Monroe, William Fichner who you may or may not recognise from "Batman:The Dark Knight" who played the guy in the mob bank at the start of the film who shot at The Joker with a shotgun and then had a grenade put in his mouth that had a piece of string that was attached to a school bus, Abby Elliott and K. Todd Freeman.
 
Expect this to be unleashed here in the UK on October 17th 2014,-for other release dates for other countries over on IMDb.com-.

Fast and Furious 7 is back on....woohoo!

The Show Must Go On!... Fast and Furious 7 will get made by hook or by crook!...Yes!,- sorry for the Queen reference but it just sprang to mind when I read this exciting piece of news.

Anyhew...yes you are reading this right, all Fast and Furious fans including me can breath a huge sigh of relief as a decision has finally been made by Universal Pictures,-so this will finally stop the wheels of the rumourmill from turning as rumours were flying that Fast and Furious 7 was either going to stop production of this film and start again from scratch or they were going to recast for the film, I don't know how on earth can you recast Paul Walker's part of Brian O'Connor with another actor without angering fans of Fast and Furious with doing it in a Neighbour's TV style (I mean when I say this is that on the TV soap Neighbours they'll sometimes get an actor who plays a part for a while then there's a lame storyline where that character has to go away for a while and then he miraculously comes back to the TV show but a completely different actor has replaced him) and making the storyline shit and not as action packed as the other films minus Tokyo Drift as that for me was the worst so far in the series especially with the guy who had the really bad southern American accent, or angering fans of action movies or petrol heads who will go to see this film which now that I think about it will probably be disappointed all the same if there's no action, no good storyline and no high speed racing like in the other films in the series and I guess as this is Universal Pictures most profitable film franchise the storyline can't be shit as this would lose them money if there were bad reviews and less people going to the cinema to watch this-.

But thankfully...well hopefully fingers crossed this won't happen but according to Variety production for this film has started up again and will be filming in Abu Dhabi and will be released in the UK on 10th April 2015 (this is a date that you should definitely keep for your diary) but check the dates for other countries on IMDb.com, but one thing is for sure that the screenwriter Chris Morgan has drastically altered the script but it's not been said yet how the script has been drastically altered or what they'll do in the movie to say bye bye to Paul Walker, but it seems to according to The New York Daily Times that:

 "...the remaining parts of the scenes that Paul Walker was half way through shooting will be finished off with body doubles and CGI faces...".

50 Shades of "Oh Matron!"

I just saw this on The Daily Mail Online and I just couldn't help myself to the "Oh Matron" reference pun...well now that I think about it this and every other innuendo/pun is really a given when talking about the film adaption of the E.L James 50 Shades Of Grey.

As you can see from this still of the film that's being shot over in Canada at the moment that the film is now actually being filmed now, as before filming even started there were a lot of rumours and things going on behind the scenes that were slowing this film down making everybody wonder was this film actually going to get made, for instance Charlie Hunnam had to drop out after being cast as of scheduling conflicts with him starring in Sons Of Anarchy,-but it did seem a bit weird to me when this happened, as surely when the studio was in talks with this actor to put him in this film they would of sorted this all out so that there wouldn't be any scheduling conflicts-, then the date of production got put back, rumours were rife that Robert Pattinson was going to be Christian Grey then he said no and then there was a rumour going around that Aaron Taylor Johnson was going to be doing it but he's in the new Godzilla film.

And apparently Universal Pictures had to file a lawsuit against Smash Pictures who were going to make their own porn version of 50 Shades Of Grey,-really, how can you do a film that is deemed more pornographic or even pornographic at all when 50 Shades Of Grey is all about torture and punishment for sex and The Submissive and The Dominant, it already sounds like a porno to me, but hey ho,- but the case got settled out of court and Smash Pictures agreed to stop all further production.



In production: Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson have already begun shooting scenes for Fifty Shades Of Grey

Now I've heard that Rita Ora is set to get a bit part in this movie too with landing the role of Mia Grey (the little sister of Christian Grey).

This adaption of the E.L James film is set to be released on Valentines Day 2015.

Hold the bus....New Hitman news!

When I saw this headline today I have to say that this did get me very excited as being a massive fan of the Timothy Olyphant "Hitman" film I was a little bit anxious that all news on whether this film was going to get filmed at all had seemed to me to have gone quiet as you may or may not already know that the reboot of this film was one of the many projects that Paul Walker who recently died in a car accident was going to do.

But now according to The Wrap the actor Rupert Friend is currently in talks to replace Paul Walker to star in this film which is now going to be called "Agent 47",- this I hope isn't going to be the only thing about the film that is going to be changed as you may or may not know that stories have already been circulating that the storyline for this film is that Agent 47 is now retired, out of shape and has lost his crown as the best at what he does which is killing people and he now wants this title back, but I think this sounds like a rubbish, storyline and if these talks don't work out and the studio wants to get Timothy Olyphant back as Agent 47 then it'll have to come up with a much better storyline for this movie reboot,-.

Aleksander Bach who is already known for directing adverts is said to be directing this new reboot that 20th Century Fox will distribute using a script written by Skip Woods, Kyle Ward and Michael Finch, with Chuck Gordon, Alex Young and Adrian Askarieh producing and Daniel Alter executive producing.

I just thought that this sounds to me like the studio are trying to give this new film a fresh new approach, so with this new approach to the film I hope that the film will still be as action packed as the last film and that it will be as cleverly written and not just go straight to DVD.

But as these are just talks at the moment we'll just have to wait and see if Rupert Friend who you may or may not have seen in "Pride and Prejudice" (the Keira Knightly version not the Colin Firth version) will actually get the role or not.

Veronica Mars Trailer!

I do realise that by putting this up here I may appear as a massive geek/saddo but I do have to say that when I first saw this trailer up on Empire Magazine's website the other day I was a bit excited to see the trailer finally.

Here it is, for your viewing pleasure...or if you just want to see what it looks like if your curious:

 
 



This also is the new poster for the movie out in the US on 14th March 2014, but there is no release date for when it'll be released over here yet, so we'll just have to wait and see and as soon as any news of this comes out an update will follow. The movie which is co-written and directed by Rob Thomas the creator of the original series.  The story for this is that Veronica has moved out of Neptune and put her Jessica Fletcher sleuthing behind her, and as she is graduating law school and going for interviews at law firms in order to get a job she gets a phone call from he ex boyfriend Logan saying he needs her help as he has been accused of the murder of his pop star girlfriend, so off she goes back home to Neptune to help Logan find a good solicitor but of course Veronica is drawn back into her old sleuthing ways as all about the case is not what it appears.
