New Posters!:
Ik heb een paar aardige nieuwe posters op internet gevonden:
links de teaser poster van Spider-man 2, daarnaast Jackie Chan's The Medallion (a.k.a. Highbinders) en rechts de Foolproof poster. Ik heb nooit van deze film gehoord, weet alleen dat Ryan Reynolds de hoofdrol speelt en dat het gave poster is!
Wow, ik was bijna klaar met de update voor vandaag maar zag nog toevallig nieuwe character posters van de actie film SWAT. Ik heb de poster met LL Cool J geplaatst, check out the rest with Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Farrell and Michelle Rodriguez by clicking right here!!!

Jonathan Mostow's T3 vs. James Cameron's T2:
Regisseur Jonathan Mostow sprak met Moviehole over Terminator 3. De film was een flinke uitdaging voor de regisseur, vooral om in de schoenen van über-director James Cameron te stappen. Jonathan reageerde als volgt:
He must have great shoes because everyone keeps asking me what it's like to wear them. Yeah, of course. Honestly, when I was first offered this movie, my first reaction was, that's crazy, of course I won't do that. What director would be crazy enough to step into those shoes? And then as I began thinking about it, I just got interested. I was a Terminator fan myself. Twelve years have passed and that's pretty unusual to do a sequel that that's much later. The character John Connor... he was a kid, and now he's a young adult. And I was thinking of that Michael Apted documentary 28 Up, that's already interesting. How am I comparing that to Terminator 3? That's interesting enough to think about that change and now you add a component. Here's a character that for a decade has been walking around wondering if he's the leader of the world, or is he a shmuck who lives under a bridge and rides his motorcycle around with sort of paranoid delusions of machines showing up from the future. That's probably about the most heavy-duty existential dilemma I could possibly imagine. So that was for me, very interesting and once I started thinking about what the story could be and the cool things that you could do with it, I just became obsessed with that I wanted to make that movie. And there's other considerations going on in my head, and my history has always been to sort of ignore the conventional wisdom. Breakdown was turned down by every studio. I had studio executive and studio presidents look me in the eye and say, 'Jonathon, if you do this movie, you'll never work in this town again. This is a bad movie and you shouldn't do it.' When I did U-571... when I was starting to write that, people said 'that's crazy, no one's ever gonna make a World War II movie, and it's shot on water'.

Stan Winston Talks T3:
Moviehole heeft een interessant interview gehad met special effects master Stan Winston, de man die Aliens, Predator en Terminator creëerde. Stan Winston sprak over zijn werk in Terminator 3 en hoe het is om te werken met James Cameron en T3's Jonathan Mostow:"I prefer working with great directors and everyone that I've mentioned to you is a great director. I've obviously loved working with Jim Cameron because of how demanding and how brilliant he is. I've done many films with Jim. started a digital company with him. He's a close friend and he's a brilliant director. I am in awe of Steven Spielberg. I've done a few films with Steven, and the man has the greatest body and range of work of any filmmaker ever alive. From Jaws to E.T., from Close Encounters to Raiders of the Lost Ark. From Schindlers List to Jurassic Park in the same year. The body and the range of his mind is unparalleled by any director ever living. I've now worked with another wonderful director. It's the first time I've worked with Jonathon Mostow and I think he did a really wonderful job with Terminator 3. I look at this movie and I go, my goodness, he really did it. I was terrified after coming off T2, after having worked on the series, what difficult shoes to follow. I think Jonathon did a brilliant job. I think the performances are great. Most importantly, on top of it all, Arnold is back. He's back strong. To watch him and go, the Terminator is back, and there's no compromise whatsoever. It's really cool."

Aliens vs. Predator:
Regisseur Paul W. Anderson (Event Horizon, Resident Evil) gaat in oktober beginnen aan Aliens vs. Predator. Het project werd jaren geleden gemarkeerd als "development hell" maar lijkt nu eindelijk van de grond los te komen. Het verhaal gaat als volgt:"The story follows human scientists going on an expedition to Antarctica to lure Predator hunters, using Alien eggs as bait. Of course, these plans quickly goes awry and the humans find themselves in the crossfire between two warring alien species."

US Box Office June 13-15:
Finding Nemo staat weer op de eerste plaats met een opbrengst van $29.2 miljoen. New releases zoals Rugrats Go wild, Hollywood Homicide en Dumb and Dumberer hadden totaal geen impact op de rest van de top tien. Ik dacht echt dat de actie-comedy Hollywood Homicide met Harrison Ford en heartthrob Josh Hartnett veel beter zou scoren maar het publiek vond het gele Disney visje iets leuker. Aankomend weekend wordt het spannend want de komt de Hulk en mark my words, this guy will crush that lil' fish!
The Top Ten:
1. Finding Nemo, $29.2 million
2. 2 Fast 2 Furious, $19.1 million
3. Bruce Almighty, $14.2 million
4. Rugrats Go Wild!, $12.5 million
5. Hollywood Homicide, $11.7 million
6. Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd, $11 million
7. The Italian Job, $9.5 million
8. The Matrix Reloaded, $5.5 million
9. Daddy Day Care, $2.1 million
10. X2: X-Men United, $1.6 million

Ratner on Rush Hour 3:
Regisseur Brett Ratner (Red Dragon) sprak met About.com over zijn toekomstige plannen:"I just got the script for Rush Hour 3 today [June 3, 2003], so I'm going to read it tonight after I leave here and if it's good, I'm going to do that. If not, I've got a few other movies that I'm trying to decide which one I'm going to do. I'd love to do Dark Materials. I'm begging for Dark Materials. It's just a hard thing to tackle because it's so much. It's three great books. We're trying to figure it out. Samurai Jack, we're just developing the script. I love the script to Be Cool, which I'm not doing, but I'm interested in. I love it. I don't know, there's so much good stuff around". What can we expect in the third RH flick then? "They're going to New York, Paris and then another third place that I'm not going to give away that's going to be amazing. Basically, they're both fish out of water".

TAXI Remake:
Queen Latifah gaat taxi chauffeur spelen in de remake van Taxi. De originele Franse versie was een groot succes in Europa, reden genoeg voor Amerika om er een whamm-bamm-wij-kunnen-het-beter US version van te maken. Luc Besson die de Franse versie produceerde zal ook meewerken aan de remake. De regie is in handen van Tim Story (Barbershop).

Arnold still ready for Conan:
Lijkt erop dat Schwarzenegger nog steeds klaar is om zijn Conan zwaard te trekken. The Terminator sprak hierover tijdens een Comic Book Convention in LA. "King Conan: Crown of Iron" wordt op dit moment nog op papier gevormd maar het is nog niet zeker hoe lang het gaat duren voordat het script klaar is: "I don't think there's any doubt about my interest in Conan," he said. "I love the character of Conan. I think it's one of the most wonderful characters I've ever played in my whole movie career."
Het project is in handen van The Wachowski Brothers maar die zijn nu volop bezig met de Matrix films.
"Warner Brothers has the rights to Conan, and the Wachowski brothers are supposed to be in charge of it," Schwarzenegger said. "But obviously, as you can see, they're heavily involved in bringing out their next movie. I think as soon as they come to me and say we have a new script, and it's ready to go to the next stage, we'll sit down and talk about it."
Geweldig, Conan doin' bullet-time (or is it sword 'n' sorcerer-time), I can't wait.

McCallum talks Episode III:
Star Wars producer Rick McCallum sprak over Episode III op the official site: "It'll take place three years or so after Episode II," McCallum posted, adding, "I do believe Ep III will bridge the gap and answer most all of the unanswered questions. I think it's much more of a fun, adventure feel. Although, of course, Anakin [Hayden Christensen] turning into Vader is pretty intense."
McCallum said to expect more action and dueling. "Ep III definitively has the most light-saber action of any Star Wars film," he said. "The battles will be on an even larger scale."
