Tim Curry as Hexxus in Ferngully performing his wonderful villain solo, “Toxic Love.”

I suspect this guy is an Australian, see if you can’t spot why…

Definitely check this one out. There are not enough 2D animated films these days and this one is brilliant.

This is the new film from Rian Johnson who wrote and directed Brick, a favourite film of mine. Whereas Brick had a fantastic trailer, this film seems to be entirely explained in the short clip below, which is the cardinal sin for movie trailers. Either way it seems to remind me of A Life Less Ordinary.

I’m trying to maintain cautious excitement regarding this. via makenosound

Looks amazing, although the voice-over kind reminds me of this Penny Arcade strip.

Trailer is NSFW.

You can’t make this up. Seriously. Let me take a deep breath.

Mischa Barton is starring in a movie called You and I (being released later this year), which is based on the book “Come Back” by Aleksey Mitrofanov which is a book of text messages between the russian girl group T.A.T.u. Seriously. T.A.T.u will also be making an appearance in the film which tells the story of two of their fans who meet over the internet.

As you wrap your head around that, I might just add some more wtf by drawing your attention to the aforementioned Aleksey Mitrofanov’s wiki page which states (among other things):

Aleksey Valentinovich Mitrofanov … is a Russian politician and former deputy of the State Duma of Russia … and served in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Soviet Union.

He holds degrees in international relations from the Moscow State Institute of International Relations and from the USA-Canada Institute of the Soviet Academy of Sciences.

In 2005 he made and released a controversial erotic movie titled Yuliya, which portrayed two people called Misha and Yuliya in various sex scenes who resembled then Prime Minister of Ukraine, Yulia Tymoshenko and President of Georgia, Mikhail Saakashvili.

Whoah…. What?

It’s all brilliant, but from 2:45 onwards is gold. via.

Best mashup yet. The guy took audio from Alice in Wonderland to make the song and then mashed it up with heavily edited footage from the same film. Brilliant. You can check him out at last.fm also.

I feel that John Cusack always plays the same role, but this looks like it’ll fit well with his style. Looks decent, can it be another Wag the Dog?

The trailer for Chaos Theory looks like a dumbed down movie version of George Cockcroft’s The Dice Man (which I read when I was 12 no less, yeah video games are the reason for the destruction of youth). Not that being a dumbed down movie version is a bad thing, Ryan Reynolds actually looks entertaining in it.

Apart from every other reason why you should go see Iron Man, you also really need to go because Danny Yount’s brilliant animation takes out the tail end of the movie. Fantastic stuff.

You can also check them out here, on his website. Not that you should, the Cinema is always the superior venue.

Interesting reading: Ask A Philosopher. Usually quite relevant to the topic of the.
