A major piece of the comic puzzle will fall into animated place for Watchmen just a few days after its release. Luckily, that place is on DVD, and there are a few teaser images to give us all an idea of what to look forward to.

Viola Davis, nominated for an Oscar for her role in Doubt, has joined the cast of the Jamie Foxx, Gerard Butler thriller Law Abiding Citizen.

As expected, the folks at Warner Bros. Home Video have announced the details for the DVD and Blu-ray release of Tales of the Black Frieghter, the companion film to Zack Snyder’s Watchmen. This supplemental release, which follows the major substory within the book by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, will be released on March 24.

After the box office success of 300, Warner Bros. has realized how much money they can save on their big-budget tentpoles by not paying A-listers (or anyone close to an A-lister), and they’ve consequently chosen to exercise that option with Watchmen.

Oddly enough, my first thought was Dog the Bounty Hunter with a Cockney British accent. My second thought was Cartman as Dog the Bounty Hunter on South Park, with a British accent.

Kevin Carr looks at the slate of films in theaters this week with the FSR Report Card.

Guy Ritchie may be leaving his Madonna, but he’s coming back for London gangster films. His latest movie RockNRolla shows Gerard Butler and a bunch of crooks in some compromising situations. They live hard, they live fast, and they drink. So let’s join them.

Kevin and Neil bid adieu to the Magical Studio in the Sky while Neil prepares to embark on a cross-country Bohemian Gypsy travel adventure. They also talk about their favorite scary movies, porn star cameos and a bunch of other awful shenanigans in the newly-revived Internet-only segment.

When the curtains rose on Chicago’s Surprise Event, the audience and our very own Josh Radde had RocknRolla thrust upon them.

The real question becomes whether or not Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx should now take the road less traveled, and like Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder, go for race-change as well.

Early in the week the news broke that Frank Darabont had dropped out as director of Law Abiding Citizen the new legal thriller starring Gerard Butler. Now we are getting word that F. Gary Gray might be taking over.

Because we know you like free stuff, we are happy to present our RocknRolla giveaway — our shameless attempt to get you to get out there and support Guy Ritchie’s latest film.

The first film from Gerard Butler’s Evil Twins production company has already lost its director. Frank Darabont has confirmed that he won’t be directing Law Abiding Citizen, the legal thriller that’s set to star Butler as an assistant district attorney targeted by a vigilante.

From the visually arresting opening credits, Guy Ritchie’s RockNRolla pulls the audience into its crazy fictional London which is inhabited by gangsters, a superstitious Russian investor, drug addicted rockers and a gang that can’t quit shoot straight or put a car into reverse.

Since the release of 300 in 2006, fans have been enamored with director Zack Snyder’s ability to translate the style of Frank Miller to the cinematic medium. Now, we are finally seeing some movement in sequel territory.

It seems that making a fictional game look its best isn’t easy. The upcoming film Game starring Gerard Butler has been given a summer 2009 release date.

It seems Warner Bros. no longer believes in the film and feels it has too many films on its hands so has pulled back from a wide distribution of RocknRolla. They appear poised to abandon the film. What a bloody shame…

While sitting in the press conference for Guy Ritchie’s hopefully triumphant return into manhood, RocknRolla, Gerard Butler was asked about his possible involvment in the sequel/prequel for 300.

When we say, “Live,” we mean very, very recent. And when we say “unleashes,” we mean, it’s Cool as Hell.

Guy Ritchie’s upcoming film appears to be a return to form. Now, hopefully we can all forget about that silly flick that starred his crazy wife…
