Time Travel Leaves Jake Gyllenhaal Cold In This Source Code Clip

published: 2011-02-18 00:30:15 Author: Josh Tyler
Source Code is a time travel movie, sort of. Think Quantum Leap meets Groundhog Day and you’ll have some idea of what to expect from director Duncan Jones’ latest film. But here’s something that should give you time travel fans a little something extra to geek out about. At least some element of the movie seems to be working on Doc Brown’s Back to the Future time travel rules. Or at least that’s my explanation for what’s going on in this new Source Code clip. Much like the Delorean after a successful jump, Jake Gyllenhaal suddenly seems very, very cold.

In the snippet you’re about to see, Gyllenhaal’s character has just returned from one of his leaps. As you can tell, he’s a bit frozen. He’s given new, terrifying information and authorized to do something with it. Take a look:

Sarah Jessica Parker Holding Out Hope For One More Sex And The City Movie

published: 2011-02-17 17:18:20 Author: Katey Rich
Because she doesn't know how to leave well enough alone, and because she's become very, very rich from playing Carrie Bradshaw over the course of 11 years, Sarah Jessica Parker is still keeping the dream of a third Sex and the City movie alive. No, really. Talking to The LA Times on the set of her next film I Don't Know How She Does It, Parker dropped a pretty substantial hint that, should the moment arrive, she'd step right back into Carrie's obscenely expensive shoes:

"I'd definitely tell that [third] story, and I know Michael would do it right. But maybe not now. Maybe in five years, you know?"

"It's not that I want to get away from [SATC]. In a million years, who could get away from it it? [But] if I'm not scared again that's not good for me. That's literally no good for me. If I'm not terrified and nauseous and worried the first two weeks of production, then what's going to happen? You could wither on the vine. It's like if you can't use your leg. It just atrophies."

There's so much to say here, starting with reminding Parker that maybe being scared during a production is actually a bad sign, but I refuse to take this too seriously. A new Sex and the City movie would require the other three actresses from the show to sign on, and based on some recent quotes they mostly seem pretty ready to move on with their lives. Sure Parker wants to make it happen-- she wants that fourth vacation home, like we all do-- but I'm not taking this an actual threat without more evidence that Warner Bros., which owns the rights to the franchise, is equally interested.

Something Borrowed Trailer: Kate Hudson Steals Ginnifer Goodwin's Man

published: 2011-02-17 16:02:43 Author: Josh Tyler
I root for Ginnifer Goodwin. She’s the most underrated part of TV’s Big Love and she’s consistently good in almost everything she shows up in, even if she’s showing up in something as terrible as He’s Just Not That Into You. I’ll even be rooting for her in Something Borrowed, which is a Kate Hudson movie, and thus can be immediately dismissed as being terrible.

For that matter there’s probably no point in watching the movie’s trailer. It’s a Kate Hudson movie which means catty bitches fighting about weddings or trying to ruin each other’s relationships. That’s what she does, and it might be ok, except she doesn’t seem to do it well. Here’s the trailer for Something Borrowed, here newest travesty, in which she’ll drag Ginnifer Goodwin and John Krasinski down with her.

There's no point in watching it, but just in case you disagree and have actually found something of value somewhere in Kate's career, we're bringing the Something Borrowed trailer to you anyway. You're welcome, I think. Watch:

Trailer For Girl Walks Into A Bar

published: 2011-02-17 16:48:23 Author: Mack Rawden
I’ve just watched the trailer for Girl Walks Into A Bar, and it’s somehow more bizarre than I expected. Hip, with a classic vibe, smart, with a dash of naked ping pong, and sexy, with a whiff of dangerous, the teaser is like Get Shorty meets Chicago crossed with The Ten. Think of it like making soup when you’re drunk. You add broth to the basic ingredients and then you just throw shit in. Most of the time it sucks, but every now and again, it’s like a whole new world opened up. Of course chicken noodle soup tastes better if you substitute chicken for smoked sausage! How could I have missed this combination for years?

Girl Walks Into A Bar is the story of a dentist putting out a hit on his wife. Overly frugal and not content to let the whole thing play out he intercedes, mucking up not only the assassin’s plan but the evenings of a whole host of Los Angeles residents spread across ten different locations. It stars Danny DeVito, Josh Hartnett, Rosario Dawson, Carla Gugino and Zachary Quinto. Also, it’ll be available for free on the internet come March 11th. Here’s a look at the trailer…

Insidious Is In This New Horror Trailer

published: 2011-02-17 16:55:55 Author: Will LeBlanc
I can’t decide how I feel about Insidious yet. It stars some under-the-radar actors that I thoroughly enjoy like Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne, it seems like it’ll be a scary thrill ride, but something doesn’t feel right. Maybe it’s the “it’s not the house that’s haunted...it’s your son” line that reminds me so much of Paranormal Activity’s hook, or maybe its that it could easily fall into the Haunting in Connecticut realm where great acting is alarmingly overshadowed by a terribly weak story.

This new trailer for Insidious insists heavily and often that you don’t forget the name of the movie before its unfortunate release date on April Fools Day. It’s attractively edited, save for the titles, and it will leave you saying, “yup, it’s a horror movie.” It seems so far like a movie worth seeing, and that it grabbed some praise at TIFF bodes well for this, Saw director James Wan’s latest.

Check out the Insidius trailer below:

New Images of Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher in THE IRON LADY

by Talia Soghomonian    Posted: February 17th, 2011

When the first publicity shot of Meryl Streep as the former British prime minister for the biopic The Iron Lady was recently released, we were struck by the resemblance. In the latest images from the set, shot in South London earlier this week, Streep, who is known for her perfectionism, appears to have physically altered herself to become Thatcher.

Check out the images after the jump.

New SUPERMAN Henry Cavill Talks about Being Cast in Zack Snyder’s Upcoming Reboot

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 17th, 2011

The new issue of Entertainment Weekly goes inside Zack Snyder’s upcoming Superman re-launch.  But the cover of the issue belongs to new Supes, Henry Cavill, who spoke to EW about the film.  While the full interview has yet to go online, EW issued a brief tease with Cavill talking about his anxiety about putting on the suit and screen-testing for the coveted role:

“All I could think was: Oh, god. They’re going to look at me and go ‘He’s not Superman. Not a chance.’ The actor inside me was going: You’re not ready! You’re not ready!“

But Snyder was impressed:

“Other actors put that suit on, and it’s a joke, even if they’re great actors. Henry put it on, and he exuded this kind of crazy-calm confidence that just made me go ‘Wow.’ Okay: This was Superman.”

The film is slated to begin shooting later this year for a holiday 2012 release.  With the start date on the horizon, we should expect casting news of the other major roles in the near future.

Trailer for INSIDIOUS Starring Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 17th, 2011

The guy or gal who was tasked with coming up with a tagline for the Insidious trailer didn’t do a very good job.  The trailer tries to play on the line “Insidious is Insidious” which makes the movie sound more like an Internet meme than a horror film.  Or maybe they just wanted to put the “taut” back into “tautology”.  Either way, the trailer then tries to pull a little twist by saying “Look!  It isn’t a haunted house movie!  It’s a haunted child movie!  You haven’t seen that before, have you?  Oh.  You have.  Well…crap.”

Hit the jump to check out the trailer and get a bad case of haunted child.  Insidious stars Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, and Barbara Hershey.  The film opens April 1st.

First Teaser Trailer for INSIDIOUS Starring Rose Byrne and Patrick Wilson

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: January 23rd, 2011

FilmDistrict has released the first teaser trailer for Insidious a few months after we saw the first clip and a positive reception at the Toronto International Film Festival.  Rose Byrne (Damages) and Patrick Wilson (The A-Team) star as parents of a boy who falls into a coma after an accident at their new house: “The tragedy doesn’t stop there when they are beset by vengeful spirits from another realm.”  Insidious is the latest collaboration between Saw director James Wan and screenwriter Leigh Whannell, and the teaser is appropriately very creepy.  Watch it after the break.

Insidious opens on April 1. Via AICN:

Elizabeth Olsen Joins Sigourney Weaver in RED LIGHTS

by Brendan Bettinger    Posted: January 23rd, 2011

Elizabeth Olsen will capitalize on her status as Sundance darling to land a role opposite Sigourney Weaver, Robert De Niro, Cillian Murphy in Red Lights.  Directed by Rodrigo Cortés (Buried), the thriller centers on “a psychologist (Weaver) and her assistant (Olsen) whose study of paranormal activity leads them to investigate a world-renowned psychic (De Niro).”  Olsen tells Risky Business, “Cillian Murphy is my love interest, though that’s not a huge part of the story.”

The role is a nice fit since Elizabeth (sister to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) is currently studying psychology at New York University.  Though she claims her education is “always a priority,” it hasn’t distracted from a budding film career: Olsen earned positive notices for the Sundance selections Silent House and Martha Marcy May Marlene.  She’ll have to take another break from school to shoot Red Lights, which is currently in pre-production.
