<p><strong><a href="/tag/danny-huston">Danny Huston</a></strong> is joining the cast of the upcoming Ridley Scott film <a href="/tag/robin-hood"><em><strong>Robin Hood</strong></em></a>, which is currently shooting in England, says the folks at <em>The Hollywood Reporter</em>.</p>
<p>Huston, who was most recently seen playing William Stryker in <em>X-Men Origins: Wolverine</em> earlier this summer and has both <em>Edge of Darkness</em> and <em>Clash of the Titans</em> on the horizon, will step into the famous chain-mail gear of King Richard, also known as Richard the Lionheart. He will carry the torch of cinematic King Richards, one that has been carried before by Sean Connery (<em>Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves</em>), Richard Harris (<em>Robin and Marian</em>) and Patrick Stewart (<em>Robin Hood: Men in Tights</em>).</p>
<p>Huston joins <strong>Russell Crowe</strong>, who plays the bow-wielding hero,<strong> Cate Blanchett</strong> as Maid Marian, <strong>Scott Grimes</strong> as Will Scarlet, <strong>Kevin Durand </strong>as Little John and <strong>William Hurt</strong> as William Marshall. <strong>Mark Strong</strong> will also star, with Imagine&#8217;s Brian Grazer producing.</p>
<p><em>Robin Hood</em> is scheduled for release on May 14, 2010.</p>
<p><em>What do you think of Danny Huston as King Richard?</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-44497" title="brolin-hex-1" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/brolin-hex-1.jpg" alt="brolin-hex-1" width="590" height="309" /></p>
<p>FSR reader Christopher M. sent us over a tip early this morning about some new photos from the set of <a href="/tag/jonah-hex"><strong><em>Jonah Hex</em></strong></a>. And no, they weren&#8217;t of <a href="/tag/megan-fox">Megan Fox</a> in her <a href="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/news/megan-fox-goes-sans-robe-on-the-set-of-jonah-hex.php" target="_blank">wild west hooker costume</a>. This time we actually get to see <a href="/tag/josh-brolin"><strong>Josh Brolin</strong></a> as the film&#8217;s title character, a rough-n-tough gun slinger if there ever was one.</p>
<p>As you can see in the images above, which come to us via the gossip site <a href="http://laineygossip.com/Josh_Brolin_and_Diane_Lane_enjoy_romantic_stroll_after_Josh_accused_of_cheating_.aspx?CatID=0&amp;CelID=0" target="_blank">Lainey Gossip</a>, Brolin has the classic Hex snarl down thanks to some excellent make-up. He also looks angry, which is another one of the character&#8217;s more popular traits. Beyond that, his costume fits the period. Beyond that, I have nothing more to say. Lets get a trailer soon, shall we?</p>
<p><em>Jonah Hex</em> hits theaters on August 6, 2010.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-43209" title="titans-setphotos-crave" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/titans-setphotos-crave.jpg" alt="titans-setphotos-crave" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>Our brothers in arms over at <a href="http://www.craveonline.com/entertainment/comics/article/exclusive-set-photos-clash-of-the-titans-77123" target="_blank">Crave Online</a> have scored a few photos from the set of the Louis Leterrier directed epic <a href="/tag/clash-of-the-titans"><strong><em>Clash of the Titans</em></strong></a> today, giving us our first look at <a href="/tag/terminator-salvation"><em>Terminator Salvation</em></a> star <strong>Sam Worthington</strong> in a skirt.</p>
<p>In the remake of the 1981 film from director Desmond Davis, Worthington will play Perseus, the story&#8217;s main character who goes after Medusa and takes on a giant sea beast. In the scene being filmed in these photos though, he only appears to be tumbling with a currently unknown character played by Pete Postlethwaite. More to come on story details later. For more, click on over to <a href="http://www.craveonline.com/entertainment/comics/article/exclusive-set-photos-clash-of-the-titans-77123" target="_blank">Crave</a> and check them out. Side note: is it just me, or is it continually funny to see pictures from sets of period pieces &#8212; seeing a woman with a clipboard and a dude with a baseball cap standing next to costumed actors dressed for another time makes me giggle, I&#8217;m sorry.</p>
<p><em>Clash of the Titans</em> is currently scheduled for release on March 26, 2010. It also stars Danny Huston as Poseidon, Liam Neeson as Zeus, Ralph Fiennes as Hades, Alexa Davalos as Andromeda and Gemma Arterton as lo.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-42905" title="monica-bellucci-header" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/monica-bellucci-header.jpg" alt="monica-bellucci-header" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>Anyone who has seen any of <em>The Matrix</em> trilogy or the wild ride that was <em>Shoot &#8216;Em Up</em> &#8212; not to mention countless other serious films with serious stories (some with serious nudity) &#8212; knows about <strong>Monica Bellucci</strong>. The Italian-born actress is one of the preeminent beauties of our time, her olive skinned curvy figure a star in its own right. And even into her 40s, she&#8217;s remained at the top of her game.</p>
<p>Which explains why no matter what she does, I&#8217;m always right here to report it. This time around she&#8217;s joining up with the Disney production of <strong><em>The Sorcerer&#8217;s Apprentice</em></strong>. She will play Veronica, a sorceress and the long-lost love of Nicolas Cage&#8217;s character, Bathazar Blake.</p>
<p>The modern day sorcerer tale follos the story of an aging sorcerer (Cage) who recruits and trains a young protege (Jay Baruchel) to help him fight the forces of darkness in modern Manhattan. The film will also star Alfred Molina, <em>Transformers 2 </em>hottie Teresa Palmer and <em>RocknRolla</em> Toby Kebbell.</p>
<p>The John Turteltaub (<em>National Treasure</em>) directed film is currently shooting in New York and has been marked for a July 16, 2010 release date.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-42690" title="expendables-sly-header" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/expendables-sly-header.jpg" alt="expendables-sly-header" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>The <a href="http://ethelmae.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">production blog</a> for <strong>Sylvester Stallone</strong>&#8217;s upcoming action film <a href="/tag/the-expendables"><strong><em>The Expendables</em></strong></a> has posted a brand new image from the film that features Sly holding on for dear life to a plane that appears to be flying away. Yet another awesome action shot from probably one of the most anticipated films of next year &#8212; and even though it&#8217;s next year&#8217;s film, we just can&#8217;t stop talking about it.</p>
<p>Anyway, check out the new image below (click to enlarge):</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/expendables-sly-full.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-42689" title="expendables-sly-full" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/expendables-sly-full-590x393.jpg" alt="expendables-sly-full" width="590" height="393" /></a></p>
<p>As well, the production blog also laid down a few smaller photos taken around Cannes of some promotional art for the film. If you ask me, this promo art might be the most badass thing we&#8217;ve seen from this film &#8212; a film that oozes badass.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-41470" title="gwyneth-paltrow-1" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/gwyneth-paltrow-1.jpg" alt="gwyneth-paltrow-1" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>Earlier today our cheeky British friend Brendan Connelly over at <a href="http://www.slashfilm.com/2009/05/03/gwyneth-paltrow-gets-kinky-in-iron-man-2/" target="_blank">/Film</a> filed an interesting report about <strong>Gwyneth Paltrow</strong> and the expansion of her role as Pepper Potts in<strong> </strong><em><strong><a href="/tag/iron-man-2">Iron Man 2</a></strong>.</em> Of course this news does come from the folks at <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1176671/KATIE-NICHOLL-Gwyneth-Paltrow-hits-gym-risque-scene-Iron-Man-2.html?ITO=1490" target="_blank">The Daily Mail</a> &#8212; so I must warn you: it is likely to be complete bullshit. According to <em>The Mail</em>, Gwyneth has been hitting the gym hardcore this past week in order to &#8220;“make sure she was in perfect shape for a risqué scene in the movie.&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the rest from <em>The Mail&#8217;s</em> Kate Nicholl:</p>
<blockquote><p>Gwyneth, who returns as Iron Man’s pretty PA Pepper Potts, filmed the sexy scene alongside Robert Downey Jr, who plays Iron Man. ‘Iron Man imagines Pepper in a dominatrix outfit,’ says a source. ‘Gwyneth had to be filmed in a very revealing black leather corset complete with a bullwhip.’</p></blockquote>
<p>While this may strike instantly hot on the geek-o-meter, it doesn&#8217;t exactly sound like the next logical step for the relationship between Tony Stark (<strong>Robert Downey Jr.</strong>) and Pepper Potts. In fact, the last time we saw them they were keeping things professional and subtle. Though after a bit of logic and a discussion with a fellow comics expert, Connelly has come up with a series of connections that might make this &#8220;sexy leather corset&#8221; scene fit:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Mickey Rourke</strong> is apparently playing the character Blacklash. He has whips &#8211; so that might be where that imagery comes from and enters Stark’s imagination. Secondly, that <strong>Scarlett Johansson</strong> is supposedly playing the Black Widow as a rather forthright and, might I say, domineering character &#8211; so enter Ms. J to take care of that too.</p></blockquote>
<p>His logic is strong, but I&#8217;m still not buying it. Gwyneth Paltrow is a sultry lady &#8212; as you can see in the image above &#8212; but a Pepper Potts in leather scene doesn&#8217;t exactly fit with what we saw from the tone of the first film. Then again, once again I put trust in the hands of <strong>Jon Favreau</strong> as a storyteller. If this is true I only have two thoughts: (1) this movie should be all kinds of sexy and (2) why wasn&#8217;t a picture of this released instead of the highly lame first image a few days ago? Its a valid question and you know it.</p>
<p><em>Iron Man 2</em> will hit theaters on</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-41095" title="danny-huston" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/danny-huston.jpg" alt="danny-huston" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>You may have heard this, but the Louis Leterrier (<em>The Incredible Hulk</em>) directed remake of <a href="/tag/clash-of-the-titans"><strong><em>Clash of the Titans</em></strong></a> began shooting this week. And with that start of production comes the final stage of casting, which includes adding some supporting characters to the already large cast of Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Sam Worthington, Mads Mikkelsen, Gemma Arterton, Jason Flemyng and Alexa Davalos.</p>
<p><em>Variety</em> is reporting today that <strong>Danny Huston</strong> (<em>X-Men Origins: Wolverine, 30 Days of Night</em>) has joined the cast in the role of Poseidon, the god of the sea. In the original 1981 film directed by Desmond Davis, the role was played by Jack Gwillim.</p>
<p>In <em>Clash of the Titans</em>, the ultimate struggle for power pits men against kings and kings against gods. But the war between the gods themselves could destroy the world. Born of a god but raised as a man, Perseus (Worthington) is helpless to save his family from Hades (Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Neeson) and unleash hell on earth. Leading a daring band of warriors, Perseus sets off on a perilous journey deep into forbidden worlds. Battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, he will only survive if he can accept his power as a god, defy his fate and create his own destiny.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> Turns out that this news was reported earlier in the week by the folks at <a href="http://movieblog.ugo.com/movies/exclusive-danny-huston-to-play-poseidon-in-clash-of-the-titans-remake" target="_blank">UGO</a>. Way to go Variety, good job giving credit to those real journalists out here on the web.</p>

<p>Since it has become apparent that all of you need updates on everything that happens in the lives of <strong>Jean-Claude Van Damme</strong> and<strong> Dolph Lundgren</strong> &#8212; two of Hollywood&#8217;s greatest B-movie action stars &#8212; we are happy to share with you a few photos from the set of their upcoming collaboration, <strong><em>Universal Soldiers: The Next Generation</em></strong>. The folks over at <a href="http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2009/04/16/Behind-the-scenes-of-the-UNIVERSAL-SOLDIERS-III-Bulgarian-shoot" target="_blank">Quiet Earth</a> have an entire gallery of images, including a few shots of various set pieces used in the filming of the direct-to-DVD threequel, but the one above is easily the most important.</p>
<p>For more pics from the set of the John Hyams directed actioner, click over to <a href="http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2009/04/16/Behind-the-scenes-of-the-UNIVERSAL-SOLDIERS-III-Bulgarian-shoot" target="_blank">Quiet Earth</a>. You may also want to check out the video below, courtesy of MySpace, which shows some of the action being filmed &#8212; go ahead, count the bodies on the ground. There&#8217;s a lot. And I don&#8217;t think any of us are going to complain about that. Look for <em>Universal Soldiers: The Next Generation</em> sometime in late 2009.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-40423" title="kate-mara-1" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/kate-mara-1.jpg" alt="kate-mara-1" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-40424" style="border: 0pt none;" title="clark-gregg-sm" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/clark-gregg-sm.jpg" alt="clark-gregg-sm" width="180" height="237" />The folks over at the <em>Hollywood Reporter </em>have announced this morning that <strong>Kate Mara</strong> (<em>Shooter</em>) and <strong>Clark Gregg</strong> have officially signed on to the production of <a href="/tag/iron-man-2"><strong><em>Iron Man 2</em></strong></a>, which is currently shooting at Marvel&#8217;s Manhattan Beach, California studios. They join the already solid cast of Robert Downey Jr., Mickey Rourke, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sam Rockwell, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson and Don Cheadle.</p>
<p>Kate Mara&#8217;s role is being kept under wraps for the time being, leading this reporter to believe that it is either (a) super insignificant or (b) a very recognizable comic book character that Jon Favreau is going to surprise us with. That is assuming that the beans don&#8217;t get spilled over the course of the next year. Either way, Kate Mara just adds additional hotness to the project.</p>
<p>Clark Gregg will reprise the role as Agent Phil Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D that he played in the first <em>Iron Man</em>.</p>
<p>In other <em>Iron Man 2</em> news, director Jon Favreau continues to make Twitter updates from the set of the film, despite a noticable slowing due to the folks at Paramount getting a little nervous about him taking shots with his iPhone camera. Either way, he has provided some information that may be of use. First up was yesterday, in which Favs tweeted about Black Widow (Johansson) and Tony (Downey Jr.) doing some shooting in the Stark Mansion:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;<span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">Scarlett and Downey in Stark manor.&#8221;</span></span></p></blockquote>
<p><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-40428" style="border: 0pt none;" title="john-slattery-sm" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/john-slattery-sm.jpg" alt="john-slattery-sm" width="150" height="173" />Mmm, sexy. As well, Favreau also tweeted about shooting a scene with <em>Mad Men&#8217;s </em><strong>John Slattery</strong>, who I was not even aware was involved with the project. For those who watch <em>Mad Men</em>, Slattery plays Roger Sterling in the AMC series and is an awesome actor. Rumor has been that Slattery plays Tony Stark&#8217;s father Howard, a role previously rumored to be played by Tim Robbins. Of course, we don&#8217;t have any concrete answers on that right this moment, but we&#8217;re still digging. Either way, I would argue that Slattery is an awesome addition to the <em>Iron Man 2</em> cast &#8212; now if only they took Howard Stark and made him a drunk, it would be Roger Sterling running the Manhattan Project. As a <em>Mad Men</em> fan, that makes me happy even though I know it won&#8217;t happen.<br />
</span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-38714" title="h2-myers-maskless" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/h2-myers-maskless.jpg" alt="h2-myers-maskless" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>I love John Carpenter&#8217;s original <em>Halloween</em>, but I&#8217;ll admit up front that I&#8217;m no fan of <strong>Rob Zombie</strong>&#8217;s 2007 redux.  Between his lack of subtlety and style and that annoying, little, pouty girl playing the young Michael Myers throughout the film&#8217;s first half?  Fucking dreadful, monotonous, and boring.  But like a stereotypical abused wife I&#8217;m happy to give additional chances to folks who probably don&#8217;t deserve it, so I&#8217;ve been looking at Zombie&#8217;s upcoming sequel with an open mind.</p>
<p>Until now.</p>
<p>Per Shock Till You Drop, Michael Myers will spend about 70% of <a href="/tag/h2"><strong><em>H2</em></strong></a> without a mask.  Myers, the iconic masked boogie man, will walk around for most of the new film with a beard on his face instead of a mask.  Note to Zombie&#8230; a dude that looks like the lost and retarded fourth member of ZZ Top is not scary.  Special effects man Wayne Toth says &#8220;<em>That&#8217;s Michael&#8217;s new look for a lot of the film. Fans will be shocked. They seem pretty responsive to it. But it&#8217;s like anything else, as long as you&#8217;re doing something cool, people get it.</em>&#8220;  Check out <a href="http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/topnews.php?id=10154">STYD</a> for more disappointing quotes from the man including how the eventual reveal of Myers&#8217; brand new mask will throw &#8220;fans for a loop.&#8221;  I can only assume William Shatner is gonna be pissed&#8230;</p>
<p><em>Should this even be called a Halloween film anymore?</em></p>

		<description><![CDATA[The folks at Paramount Pictures have revealed to the world, with the help of Yahoo and USA Today, the list of robots that will be featured in Michael Bay's upcoming sequel Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13300" title="Transformers 2 Logo" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/transformers2-logo-580x132.jpg" alt="Transformers 2 Logo" width="580" height="132" /></p>
<p>The folks at Paramount Pictures have revealed to the world, with the help of <a href="http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/need-to-know-transformers-robots.html" target="_blank">Yahoo</a> and <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2009-04-01-transformers-first-look_N.htm" target="_blank">USA Today</a>, the list of robots that will be featured in Michael Bay&#8217;s upcoming sequel <a href="/tag/transformers-2"><strong><em>Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen</em></strong></a>. And instead of making you go to two different places and read the reports for yourself, I&#8217;ve picked apart the lists and combined them to make one awesome list below.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-38092" title="optimus-prime-1" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/optimus-prime-1.jpg" alt="optimus-prime-1" width="590" height="220" /></h2>
<h2><strong>AUTOBOTS</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>OPTIMUS PRIME: The Autobots&#8217; leader &#8211; alternate form: Peterbilt truck.</li>
<li>IRONHIDE: Weapons specialist &#8211; GMC Topkick.</li>
<li>RATCHET: Medic &#8211; Hummer H2.</li>
<li>BUMBLEBEE: Friend and mode of transportation for Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) &#8211; 2010 Chevorlet Camaro.</li>
<li>ARCEE: A female Autobot &#8211; Megan Fox&#8217;s hot-pink motorcycle.</li>
<li>JETFIRE: As in the original, this fighter plane crash-landed on Earth a long time ago, and he will become a reformed Decepticon now fighting for the humans. His alternate form is the SR-71 Blackbird, the outdated but still-sleek Cold War spy plane.</li>
<li>JOLT: the original toy was a Decepticon, but in the movie he&#8217;s a good guy &#8211; Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid.</li>
<li>SKID &amp; MUDFLAP: a.k.a. &#8220;The Twins&#8221; &#8211; Chevrolet Beat and Trax concept cars.</li>
<li>SIDESWIPE: A candy-apple red Lamborghini in the original, joins the cast this time as General Motor&#8217;s silver Corvette Stingray concept car.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-38091" title="ravage-1" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/ravage-1.jpg" alt="ravage-1" width="590" height="250" /></p>
<h2><strong>DECEPTICONS</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>STARSCREAM: Formerly Megatron&#8217;s second in command, he escaped at the end of the first movie (see photo); F-22 Raptor jet.</li>
<li>SCORPONOK: The mechanical scorpion that attacked the American troops in the desert.</li>
<li>THE FALLEN: an ancient robot, sort of the Transformers&#8217; version of Lucifer. He&#8217;s one of the original robot aliens, and his defiance and arrogance led to his banishment into another dimension. The screenwriters say that The Fallen holds the key to life on both Earth and Cybertron, the Transformers&#8217; home planet.</li>
<li>SIDEWAYS: The Audi R8 seen crashing through a building in the trailer.</li>
<li>SOUNDWAVE: A cassette player in the original toys; his alternate mode will fly. According to the screenwriters, this evil communications officer will appear as a orbiting space satellite.</li>
<li>RAVAGE: A four-legged, cat-like robot (seen in the trailers and pictured above).</li>
<li>THE DOCTOR: A spider-like droid that transforms into various implements of torture and has a not-so-nice encounter with star Shia LaBeouf.</li>
<li>WHEELIE: A small, radio-controlled truck.</li>
<li>DEMOLISHER: One of the Constructicons that transform into construction vehicles.</li>
<li>DEVASTATOR: A giant robot formed by the Constructicons joining together; individually, they are: Scavenger, Scrapper, Hightower, Longhaul, Rampage, Overload and Mixmaster.</li>
</ul>
<p class="inside-copy">In addition these lists, the USA Today also had a few quotes from Michael Bay and members of his creative team. One in particular that stuck out was Bay describing the reaction Steven Spielberg had when he first saw The Fallen in action: &#8220;Spielberg saw it and said, &#8216;This is (expletive) awesome!&#8217; &#8221; Bay says, and adds: &#8220;It&#8217;s always nice when you can make him swear.&#8221;</p>
<p class="inside-copy">If you ask me, I think it&#8217;s all ****ing awesome as well. Yet another thing Mr. Spielberg and I have in common.</p>
<p class="inside-copy"><em>Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen</em> hits theaters on June 24, 2009. Check out some new photos below &#8212; mostly courtesy of Megan-Fox.net &#8212; including a first look at The Doctor, the Decepticon mentioned above.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-38018" title="dark-country-9" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/dark-country-9-590x331.jpg" alt="dark-country-9" width="590" height="331" /></p>
<p>It&#8217;s an obvious connection, but if we&#8217;re about to learn anything from these first photos from <strong>Thomas Jane</strong>&#8217;s directorial debut <a href="/tag/the-dark-country"><strong><em>Dark Country</em></strong></a>, it is that its going to be a very dark film. It also has a very unique, <em>Sin City</em>-esque design to it. And I don&#8217;t mean that in a bad way. The actor, whom you may know from <em>The Mist</em>, <em>The Mutant Chronicles</em> and our <a href="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/features/comic-con-video-the-rejects-hit-the-show-floor.php" target="_blank">Comic-Con 2008 floor report</a> (a performance which shook us to our core), is making his directorial debut in an incredibly unique and interesting way &#8212; <em>Dark Country</em> is going to be a 3D noir style thriller. Have you ever seen something like that before? Didn&#8217;t think so.</p>
<p>It will tell the story of a couple (Jane and <em>Hostel II</em> star Lauren German) who are en route to Las Vegas when they come across a dead body out in the desert, turning their honeymoon into a &#8220;hellish ride.&#8221; The film will also star <em>Hellboy&#8217;s</em> Ron Perlman.</p>
<p>What I find most interesting is that while studios such as Disney and Dreamworks are gearing up big, sleek family films in 3D, Jane and Sony&#8217;s Stage 6 Films are actually using the format to do something unique. And it&#8217;s a risk, for sure. But lets consider the fact that <em>My Bloody Valentine 3D</em>, which was made for around $15 million, brought in almost $70 million worldwide with a January release. I&#8217;m no statistician, but that appears to be a solid draw for an R-rated film with a 3D schtick. And with Jane&#8217;s film being rumored in the $5 million dollar budget range, I can see it turning a quick, easy profit if Sony chooses to give it a properly supported release.</p>
<p>This is all fitting news, as we&#8217;ve seen dozens of reports from our friends around the web about the future of 3D as studios roll out their plans this week at ShoWest in Las Vegas. As our friend Pete at <a href="http://www.slashfilm.com/2009/03/31/beauty-and-the-beast-3d-sequence-wows-at-showest/" target="_blank">Slashfilm</a> reports, Disney is working hard to adapt <em>Beauty and the Beast</em> in 3D for an upcoming theatrical run. As well, Disney is also prepping another run of <em>Toy Story </em>and <em>Toy Story 2</em> in the fall in 3D, complete with a trailer for the upcoming 3D adventure <em>Toy Story 3</em> attached. Also, as <a href="http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=54116" target="_blank">Coming Soon</a> reports, Disney will also be giving Tim Burton&#8217;s <em>Alice in Wonderland</em> an IMAX 3D release.</p>
<p>What I&#8217;m looking for in all of this 3D craze is inventive use of the format, as we saw earlier this year with Henry Selick&#8217;s <em>Coraline</em>. Because if you&#8217;re like me, you are already sick of 3D as a gimmick, the silliness that we see in kid-friendly movies such as <em>Journey to the Center of the Earth</em>, in which 3D is used as a gag. Hollywood has invested an unquantifiable amount of money in advancing 3D with the RealD format and IMAX &#8212; and not to mention whatever the hell James Cameron is doing in his basement &#8212; so its high time we see them do something really cool with it. And from what I can tell, Thomas Jane is a filmmaker who is trying to do just that. So kudos to him. The ball&#8217;s in your corner, Tim Burton.</p>
<p><em>Dark Country</em> is currently pending a release date. For now, just enjoy these new images below, courtesy of the folks over at <a href="http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2009/03/31/First-stills-from-Thomas-Janes-3D-directorial-debut-DARK-COUNTRY" target="_blank">Quiet Earth</a>.</p>

<p>I don&#8217;t know how to make this story not sound at least a little dirty, despite the fact that it&#8217;s all about a damn kids movie. <a href="http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=24483" target="_blank">Empire</a> has revealed today the <em>Shaun of the Dead</em> and <em>Star Trek</em> star Simon Pegg has joined the voice cast of <em><a href="/tag/ice-age-dawn-of-the-dinosaurs" target="_blank"><strong>Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs</strong></a>. </em>Pegg will voice a character named Buck, a &#8220;larger than life, swashbuckling, one-eyed weasel&#8221;. Buck will help Manny the Mammoth (Ray Romano), Sid the sloth (John Leguizamo) and Diego the sabretooth tiger (Dennis Leary) when they fall into the world beneath the ice, where dinosaurs run wild. And according to Empire&#8217;s report, Buck has a Captain Ahab-like obsession with a Baryonyx dinosaur named Rudy, who is the reason that he only has one eye. Sounds like a cool character, if you ask me. Sort of like Puss in Boots from <em>Shrek</em>, but darker.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure how all of you feel about the <em>Ice Age</em> franchise, but I&#8217;ve always been a fan. It&#8217;s some of the most interesting animation work that we&#8217;ve seen from any studio outside of the two-horse race that is Pixar and Dreamworks Animation. I&#8217;m sure it has something to do with my undying devotion to Scrat, the resourceful and scrappy prehistoric whatchamacalit that is just trying to get a nut, but I also find the characters to be relatively engaging and the animation is sharp. See how I did that &#8212; took it to a dirty place. I can&#8217;t write about kids movies any more.</p>
<p><em>Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs</em> hits theaters on July 1, 2009.</p>

<p>Sometimes posters can be oh so wrong. They can be boring and flat and either blend into the background of the local movie theater or worse, turn people off seeing the movie. Of course, for every negative, there&#8217;s a positive. Earlier this week we <a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;source=custom&amp;client=pub-8048714283410682&amp;sigafs=E-v_6uZ0rR37ERCL&amp;flav=0002&amp;ct=cres&amp;cd=2&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.filmschoolrejects.com%2Fnews%2Fnew-where-the-wild-things-are-poster-is-brilliant-awesome-furry.php&amp;ei=gv_MSdSbCNy4jAf1voGDBg&amp;usg=AFQjCNHCrXPlAp2x1SCZst4eGOQgAwFMPA">discussed</a> the <em>Where The Wild Things Are</em> poster which has so much of the online community a-twitter (literally, <em>Twitter</em> is abuzz with both the poster and the new trailer). This is a prime example of how to do a poster well, hooking new people in and keeping the current eager fans salivating for more.</p>
<p>While the newest <em><a href="/tag/harry-potter-and-the-half-blood-prince"><strong>Harry Potter 6</strong></a> </em>posters (which debuted on <a href="http://movies.msn.com/photos/half-blood-prince-stills/?photoidx=1">MSN</a> earlier) may not quite reach the heights of the great fuzzy that was <em>Where The Wild Things Are</em>, it does have a certain style which is eye catching and identifiable, and presents great opportunities for little in-jokes directed at the fans. It&#8217;s these details that make them more than mediocre, these and the awesome broodiness exuded by every cast member photographed. Perhaps they&#8217;re worried that Twilight will out frown them in the publicity stills stakes. Either way, the details dropped into the posters are a nice addition.</p>
<p>First there&#8217;s Harry, standing in the London underground and surrounded by swirling papers covered with headlines about muggle attacks and the odd photo of Lucius Malfoy. Ron is decked out in his Quidditch robes in front of the goal posts, whilst Dumbledore stands at the mouth of a cave with the tide crashing on the rocks. Similarly, Snape is ominous and unsettled standing in what appears to be the Astronomy tower. If you look carefully behind Draco, you&#8217;ll see he stands in the Room of Requirement, a subtle nod which takes some staring to notice. Finally, Hermione appears in front of in a spiral staircase, with some doves. This one escapes me, I need to read the book again, so please put your suggestions in the comment box! Also, here are those posters:</p>

		<description><![CDATA[This little slow news day item should go down as a gem, as it involves two things that we are anxiously looking forward to: TRON 2.0 and sex.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-37420" title="serinda-swan-tron2" src="http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/images/serinda-swan-tron2.jpg" alt="serinda-swan-tron2" width="590" height="300" /></p>
<p>There&#8217;s nothing like a slow-ish news day. Sometimes it is an abysmal bore, sucking the life out of Reject HQ faster than the black hole upon which we&#8217;ve parked our colony of human-machine hybrid beings, and sometimes it allows us to branch out and find some real gems. This one should go down as a gem, as it involves two things that we are anxiously looking forward to: <em><a href="/tag/tron-2"><strong>TRON 2.0</strong></a> </em>and sex.</p>
<p>In an interview with <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/Smallville-preview-Serinda-1004391.aspx?rss=object" target="_blank">TV Guide</a>, super hot model and new <em>Smallville </em>castmember <strong>Serinda Swan</strong> (pictured above) talked briefly about her role in the upcoming <em>TRON </em>sequel, which is being directed by Joseph Kosinski. When asked about the project, Swan explained that &#8220;Beau Garrett (<em>Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer</em>), these two other actresses and I play temptresses from inside the computer world. We&#8217;re sort of the main guy&#8217;s go-to girls. There are lights actually sewn into our wardrobe, so it&#8217;s like nothing you&#8217;ve seen before!&#8221;</p>
<p>This certainly might add an interesting element to <em>TRON 2.0</em>. We can only assume, based on the most recent story details published earlier this month by <a href="http://www.aintitcool.com/node/40285" target="_blank">Ain&#8217;t It Cool News</a>, that Swan is referring to Jeff Bridges&#8217; character Kevin Flynn as the &#8220;main guy.&#8221; The recent details say that Flynn has been back inside the game for some 20 years (since the time of the first film) and has been waging war with aggressive computer programs. Meanwhile his son, played by <em>Friday Night Lights </em>and <em>Death Sentence</em> star Garrett Hedlund, has found his mothballed old arcade and found a way into the game in attempt to find and rescue his father, whose been missing since he was 7-years old.</p>
<p>Then again, do all of these &#8220;story details&#8221; really matter? This news is great news &#8212; some &#8220;main guy&#8221; in the film employs several hot digital temptresses who will carry out sexy, devious plots on light cycles and light jets. They also may have big disc fight at some point. This definitely appeals to the misogynistic side of me. And since the geek side of me is already in, that pretty much completes the puzzle necessary to have me super-excited about this film. As of now, <em>TRON 2.0</em> is scheduled for a 2011 release. We also expect a full trailer to be shown later this year at the San Diego Comic-Con in July.</p>
<p>One final note, for those of you who don&#8217;t remember what <strong>Beau Garrett</strong> looks like:</p>
