CASTING NEWS FOR BATTLE: LOS ANGELES
Aaron Eckhart, Michelle Rodriguez, Michael Pena and Bridget Moynahan have signed to star in Battle: Los Angelas. The film is about a Marine (Eckhart) and his platoon, who battle an alien invasion in Los Angeles. Hopefully this movie will be decent. I love alien movies, but in most cases they fall short.
PS3'S INFAMOUS HEADED TO THE BIG SCREEN
Sony is finalizing a deal with Sucker Punch Productions (the company behind the Infamous game) to bring it to the big screen. The writer for the film is going to be Sheldon Turner, who's only other films have been The Longest Yard and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. I don't see a lot of potential in this film . The game is about a guy who gets super powers and goes and unleashes it on the city. At least Sony is doing this film and not FOX. If you have seen a film by FOX in the last 5 years, then you know everthing they make is crap.
BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD JOINS ELCLIPSE
Rachelle Lefevre has played the role of Victoria, the bad vampire, in the first two films, but now all of a sudden Lefevre has been dumped from the third film and replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard. Initially, the rumor was that Lefevre had scheduling conflicts with other projects and she could no longer commit to the films. Yesterday, however she said that she has turned down several roles to stay on the films and has chosen projects with only ten day shoots and that the studio wanted her replaced. Either way Howard is a much better actress and apparently the character of Victoria has a huge role in Eclipse. How exciting.
REVIEWS FOR DISTRICT 9 GREAT SO FAR
Peter Jackson screened District 9 for an audience at Comic-Con last weekend. Reports are saying that it in every way beats out Transformers, Wolverine and Terminator: Salvation. The only info from the film is that its very gory, it starts off documentary style and then kinda switches to more of a regular movie feel in the second act. I'm hoping this film turns out to be as good as everyone is saying.

I bought Infamous yesterday and I am going to return it tonight. I didn't like the game one bit and thought it was really over-rated. Hopefully the movie won't disappoint like the game did....
ReplyDeleteInfamous is my vote for game of the year. It was amazing! It has a good story and has potential as a movie but Hollywood always finds a way to screw game-to-movie adaptations up. I think either Sam Worthington or Wentworth Miller should play Cole. Wentworth Miller is already playing Jack in the game-to-movie adaptation of BioShock which has alot of potential as well. That game was bad ass.
