Jon Favreau talks Iron Man:
Actor-director Jon Favreau talked about his upcoming superhero film Iron Man:
"I want to see a lot of stuff blowing up. That's part of it. I've always been a big fan of RoboCop. And using today's technology to create a hero that has that kind of, you know, magnitude could be a lot of fun. There's also a whole geopolitical aspect of it that you you don't really see with other superheroes. And the politics are a little more complicated. So it deals with a lot of issues. I hope that we could, on the one hand, make it an enjoyable movie, and on the other hand, explore certain subject matter that you wouldn't normally see in a comic-book movie."

CHiPs is coming!:
That '70s Show's Wilmer Valderrama will play Ponch in the big screen version of ehmm... that '70s Show CHiPs!
Eric Estrada played the part of Ponch in the series, Valderrama gives an update on the project:
"We start shooting this summer. Trust me, there was one superhero I wanted to play, it's Ponch. He's the man, dude. So it's actually very flattering. The studio, Warner Brothers, have taken me in as one of their own and I'm doing a bunch of pictures with them, this being one of them, CHiPs is the other one. It's exciting because we're really keeping in mind all the mistakes that every other remake has made, and not going to make them in this one.
We're really going to do it right. It's an action-comedy but the comedy comes from the chemistry, the comedy comes from a very organic place. We don't want it to be funny gags or funny costumes because, to be honest, in doing the research for this movie, we realized CHiPs worldwide is still a huge phenomenon and a huge drama for the fans."

Brett Ratner talks X-Men: The Last Stand:
Mutant-director Brett Ratner revealed that X-Men: The Last Stand is loaded with huge set pieces. Looks like
the man is still in shock after seeing the action, here's a clip:
"The megamovie moment is in the trailer, and that's ripping the Golden Gate Bridge out of the ground and moving it. That's a mega-mega-mega-movie moment. Even I'm blown away when I see it. The pieces that it took, that we shot, to get that to work-from the plates to the sky shots to the making of the bridge in miniature to CG enhancements to real elements of people running-it was insane. There must be 20 different elements to make one shot of the bridge look real. So as far as technology is concerned that's a major mega-moment in cinema. I'm telling you, my mouth drops when I see the final shots."
X-Men: The Last Stand will hit the theatres next month!

Jason Statham talks Transporter 3:
I love the Transporter films, what can I say, these are quilty pleasure pics! And the man himself, Jason Statham, talked
about a third film:
"People keep saying "when are you gonna do another one?" Luc (Besson) wants to do another one; I want to work with Luc. You don't want to give people too much of one thing, you know you eat ice cream every day, you're gonna get bored of it. But Luc said he's got an amazing idea for part three, so if it's a great story... in my eyes we can improve on the last one so much."
