WITCH HUNTER NIC or “NOT ALL SOULS CAN BE SAVED”

I was beginning to wonder what had happened to Season of the Witch starring Nicolas Cage and Ron Perlman, a movie trailer had been released late last year and then nothing well it looks like we have some new developments for Peter Goddard and Dominic Sena’s belabored project. Apparently Relativity has taken over the distribution on the movie after Lionsgate seemed to just drop it, they have also come out with a new movie poster which seems to signal a marketing shift away from the more supernatural ONE SHEET, that Lionsgate was pursuing to one were Nick is now portrayed as an Aragorn-isc hero. We also have a new movie trailer which was just released giving a more balanced picture, less Witch more brothers in arms fighting the good fight. I enjoy movies by Nick Cage, most people seem to have a different opinion, the National Treasure franchise is his best Knowing was a really good movie, haven’t seen Kick-Ass or The Socerer’s Aprentice yet but I hear there is a sequel in the works, I think we can thank Chloë Moretz for that.

I personally like the first trailer better, there just isn’t enough movies were Witch’s get to kick ass, but she’s up against Nick and Hellboy, they better make a third movie, so I think her season is up. As you have probably guessed I will be seeing this one.

Nicolas Cage stars as a 14th century Crusader who returns with his comrade Ron Perlman to a homeland devastated by the Black Plague. A beleaguered church, deeming sorcery the culprit of the plague, commands the two knights to transport an accused witch Claire Foy to a remote abbey, where monks will perform a ritual in hopes of ending the pestilence

CAPTAIN AMERICA to begin shooting

Director Joe Johnston has revealed to Fangoria in an interview about his being brought in at the last-minute as the new director of The Wolfman to replace departing director Mark Romanek that Marval Studis‘s is looking at a June 2010 start for principle photography on the upcoming movie The First Avenger: Captain America

Various names were mentioned as Romanek’s replacement, among them John Landis, Frank Darabont and CASINO ROYALE’s Martin Campbell, but it was Joe Johnston, director of JURASSIC PARK III and THE ROCKETEER, who got the nod. The clock, however, was ticking. Principal photography was now less than four weeks away. “By the time I got on a plane and arrived, it was three,” recalls Johnston, speaking from the art department of THE FIRST AVENGER: CAPTAIN AMERICA, which he’s readying for a June start. “But at that point, what kind of difference can a week make?

Captain America was killed in 2007 by a sniper’s bullet but this being the Marvel universe he was reborn, starting on July 1 2009 in a five comic book series titled Captain America: Reborn.

Rising from the dead after being killed off over two years ago, Captain America is being resurrected by Marvel Comics.

After close to 60 years in print, Marvel Comics killed off Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, in 2007, one of its most famous and beloved superheroes, amid a controversial story line.

He fought and triumphed over Hitler, Tojo, international Communism and a host of super-villains, but a sniper’s bullet cut Captain America down in 2007, a move that shocked many of his fans.

In the comic series, Rogers was to stand trial for defying a superhero registration law passed after a hero’s tragic mistake causes a 9/11-like event. Marvel said the comic story line was intentionally written as an allegory to current real-life issues like the Patriot Act, the war on terror and September 11.

Rogers eventually surrenders to police. He is later mortally wounded as he climbs the courthouse steps. It was a violent and strange end for an American hero and icon.

The primary shooter, Crossbones — working under the orders of Captain America’s longtime nemesis, the Red Skull — was caught. The identity of a second shooter is revealed in issue 600, which goes on sale Monday.

Many felt Captain America’s death in 2007 was symbolic of the time. And his return now?

“The tenor of the world now is when we’re at a point where we want to believe in heroes. Someone who can lead the way,” said Breevort. “It just feels like the right time.”

INCEPTION is, I’m not sure what it is

In case you didn’t see Sherlock Holmes this weekend or catch the French version of this video, Warner Bros has released an English, high-resolution trailer for Christopher Nolan’s Inception.  The studio has kept details surprisingly secret for the science fiction story, so please pardon the lack of explanation for the eyegasm of random images and confusing dialogue.  I honestly have no idea what’s happening either.  I can’t wait to find out.

If I didn’t know any better I’d think Christopher Nolan is taking quae’s from Terry Gilliam because this trailer makes no sence and  that would be Gillian’s territory. I sure the Dark Knight director can’t do any wrong at least until his next movie doesn’t make a zillion dollars. I’m pretty sure Inception won’t be that movie people will go to see it because of Christopher is directiong Leonardo DiCaprio is staring in it. Hay at least the Trailer is in english

Inception Trailer 2

SUPREME COMMANDER 2 Tensions Rise

Little has been revealed of the plotline for Supreme Commander 2 as of October 2009. A trailer for the game released at the Entertainment Software Association’s 2009 Electronic Entertainment Expo indicates that the story takes place twenty-five years after the conclusion of Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance, and centers on the breakdown of peaceful relations that the United Earth Federation, the Aeon Illuminate, and the Cybran Nation have experienced during that time, implying that war has been instigated through the deceit of some unrevealed party.
