I had some internet troubles this week but they're all fixed.  So you didn't had to worry about me. Some of you were panicking and decided to send a rescue and a SWAT team to my house but this wasn't necessary. Thank you for being so concerned about me! You know what? I'm giving you something special today! Indeed, the third episode of FILMSTATE Fallout Nuka Break!




And you know I can't start the news without a bi-weekly episode of FilmState. I'm sorry Audience, I'm afraid I can't do that. [ O HAL9000 ]




Django Unchained news
Last days we've received a lot of information on Django Unchained. They found a replacement for Kevin Costner, Waltz injured himself and a Lost actor will join the cast. Excited? Yes! 

  Kurt Russell replaces Kevin Costner in Django Unchained

 
Kurt Russel will play Ace, the bad ass bastard who runs Calvin Candle's plantation. Ace is a cruel slave driver who makes the lives of the slaves very hard.

 This is the second time he works together with Quintin Tarantino. He replaced Mickey Rourke as Stuntman Mike in Death Proof, probably one of the most bad ass characters that i've seen. 

Tarantino is going to exploit his badassery once again. Laura Cayoutte, who played Rocket in Kill Bill: Vol. 2, has signed on to play Candie's sister and plantation co-owner. If you can't remember Rocket, the character worked in The My Oh My Strip Club and told Budd to clean up the bathroom. 

 
Christoph Waltz injured whilst riding horse

According to a statement from his agent, the Oscar-winning actor was injured while training with his horse in preparation for the role. 

Waltz is currently being treated for a dislocated pelvic bone and is looking forward to getting back in the saddle,”said his agent.  

Lost actor joins Django Unchained 


 M.C Gainey will join the cast of DU. you might remember him as Tom Friendly, member of "The Others"
He'll be playing Big John Brittle, one of the outlaws who Jamie Foxx's Django hunts down during his revenge mission. It's a small part but he fits the role.
 

One word: Bingo

Arrested Development gets new movie and TV show

 

Fans of the cult show arise!The long-discussed movie is finally happening. And there will be new episodes.

Creator Mitchell Hurwitz says the TV show will film next summer and will focus on the characters'lives in the past five years.

We're all game. We've hated being coy, but we've been trying to put together this ambitious idea."
 
“I’m peeing with @batemanjason at the moment..and we can confirm that we are going to make new AD eps and a movie,” said Will Arnettt.
 
“It’s true. We will do 10 episodes and the movie. Probably shoot them all together next summer for a release in early ’13. VERY excited!” added Jason Bateman. 

Evangeline Lilly talks about The Hobbit

Wood Elf Tauriel returned to the real world to attend the US premiere of Real Steel. She was happy to chat about her little Hobbit stories. 

“Working with Pete Jackson is super inspiring. “I have a dialogue coach, an emotion coach, a language coach, a stunts coach. So I should by rights be great in this film but if I fuck up it's my fault,” Lilly told Access Hollywood.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey opens 14 December 2012.

  Ricky Gervais Golden Globes return planned


His presentation of this year's Golden Globes was blimy brilliant and now he's returning for another round of controversy-spreading.  

Gervais revealed: "I don't think I should host the Golden Globes again, even if I'm asked and that is very unlikely, to be honest...  

"But because of the greatest thing about our society, freedom of speech, I can still host the Golden Globes, or any event on the planet.  “I am working with a Californian technology company on a live webcast idea. "People watch their TV at the same time as listening to me and a few chums provide our own alternative commentary.”

"This is not to steal anyone's thunder, or disrupt pleasant society. It's simply a new horizon. And for its own sake.  

"I have no idea if it will work but I didn't know if podcasting would work back in 2005 when I launched The Ricky Gervais Show.“I didn't particularly care either. I was doing it for a laugh. There are not many better reasons to do anything." 
 

Fox does NOT cancel The Simpsons


You might have heard the news about Fox who wants the cast members to take a 45% pay cut – going from 8 million dollars to 4 million a season.

Fox is known for killing and cancelling the most amazing shows like Futurama, Arrested Development, Firefly and even more.

The following news is just minutes old, but the actors agreed with Fox. They will do the 24th season. Neither Fox or the actors are saying anything. 

This was just one of the many bickering between the network and the actors. The series started in 1989 and the first quarrel happened in 1998 when Fox threatened to replace the cast. Other negotiations took place in 2004 and 2008.

We don’t know what the future holds for our yellow friends from Springfield. It’s still possible that it will end on a landmark, which will be the 25th season.

Le retour de Bond, Man in Black III and Jackie Chan is serious


Welcome back to MMB for your 
bi-weekly injection of  movie news! 
Don't worry, the needle is sterile.
                                                                                             

Hello and welcome once again to Movie Monstrosity, your source for awesome movienews only for YOU because you are the best. No doubt.

So you know what's coming, right? What if i tell you that there will not be a FilmState huh? Wouldn't that be a hard nut to crack? Missing an awesome FilmState episode with a pretty damn funny Domain.com commercial in the middle of the episode. Domain.com, the best domain provider in the universe. Yes, even Cubans use domain.com. So does this mean you're dumber than a commie ? YES IT DOES. Be smart and get a domain.com address.

I should get paid by domain.com. Anyway, my point is: I'm not going to take away your fun of watching a FilmState episode. Enjoy!


Men in Black III and it's retro aliens


Make-up designer Rick Baker talks about his work on MIBIII and is quite happy about the time travelling element.

Time Travelling? Yes, the third part of the franchise will send Agent J back the Golden Sixties, where he meets the Young Agent K( Josh Brolin ) and Andy Warhol( Bill Hader). Did i mention Jemaine Clement will be in there too ( from Flight Of The Conchords )? The movie will have a 60s retro look. 

“The thing that’s cool is there is a time travel element. Where I had fun is that we go back to the Men In Black headquarters of the ’60s," said Rick Baker.
"The first thing I said is that we should have retro aliens not aliens of 2012, more based on B-movies of the ’50s and ’60s. So a lot of the aliens are based on that - space suits with fish bowl helmets and ray guns.”
 
Rick Baker was the special make-up designer of Tropic Thunder( Anyone who did Downey Jr.'s make up should get an award), Norbit, Hellboy, The Ring, Planet Of The Apes, MIB I and II, Ed Wood and many more.


Michael K. Williams will appear in Django Unchained

 
Quentin Tarantino does not want to let Michael K. Williams go and wrote him a new role. He was chosen to be the main lead character first.
 
“It came down to Jamie and I for Django, and [Tarantino] was gracious enough to call me and tell me that ‘Jamie was his nigger.' Will Smith expressed some interest, but it came down to Jamie Foxx and I, like QT told me this personally out of his mouth over lunch.”
 
“QT has asked me to keep my diary clear in early 2012.  I’ve been given a timeline. January through April. I’ve been given some dates when he’s going to want me to work but I haven’t gotten the official word yet.”
 
Williams does not want to tell a thing about his role. So it will be a surprise! Django Unchained will be released on 25 December 2012. If you are still alive after 21 December 2012, you should go watch it in a burning theatre, like Inglorious Basterds ended.
 

Jackie Chan goes 1911

The first trailer for the war film 1911 has appeared online with Jackie Chan playing a serious role. Yeah, i'm dead serious about this.
 
The film marks the 100th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution and the founding of the Republic of China. It's also the 100th film of Chan.
 
Jackie Chan, plays Huang Xing, the first commander-in-chief of the army of the Republic of China.
 
1911 opens on 23 September 2011 in China and on 12 October in the US.
 


Bond 23 Girl is French


Daniel Craig is getting ready for the 23th Bond film. The film will be released in 2012, this year being the 50th Anniversary of the James Bond film series. Expect something special.

Bond 23 is back up and running it's time for the casting directors to look for that perfect actress. And that perfect actress will be Berenice Marlohe, a young French TV actress who has recently made the transition from television to films. 

The cast at the moment is Daniel Craig, Judi Dench, Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes. Cross

The Second Centipede and Lone Ranger is back?


Welcome back to MMB for your 
bi-weekly injection of  movie news! 
Don't worry, the needle is sterile.
                                                                                             

It looks like it's a meagre week this time for film news. Excuse me, for interesting film news. Normally I select the best news( for my viewers ) from several sites but this time it's a bit boring and dull...

For example: One for The Money releases a trailer. It's a romantic comedy. So what's the plot? It's about a bounty hunter who tracks down her former lover. Oh wait, sound a lot like The bounty Hunter with Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler. It's one of those "let's watch these with the girlfriend because the gf likes romcoms and I wanna chill on the couch and do nothing else" movies. Yeah. so if you're interested: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=One+for+The+Money+trailer

Full trailer released for.......
Wait a second. It seems that i have forgotten something but i can't remember what. Huh. That's strange. Let's redo that.
Full trailer released for........
OH YEAH. The new FilmState offcourse! Stupid me! And I just love the movie game. You choose a random actor and try to get to Steven Spielberg on Imdb in the least amount of clicks.



Official trailer The Human Centipede 2 out

A new trailer has been posted online for The Human Centipede Part 2: Full Sequence, the shockhorror film from Dutch director Tom Six. 

The First Sequence was quite the shocker for the audience. Will this be even worse? We've seen the reactions of the Australian people a few weeks ago and the results are...definitly not normal.

The Plot? A man saw the first sequence and got inspired to do the same. That's it. It's filmed in black and white to give the film that certain horror vibe.

This movie has been banned in the UK so British people have to get their tickets abroad.

The director also said that he was ready for Part 3, which will go far over the line. We can't wait. 

MMB Opinion: The actor's eyes or just his look is similar to Michael "Benjamin Linus" Emerson. Just a mere moment in the trailer.




Old Spice inspired TV-spot for Puss In Boots

 
Back to the normal stuff. The Shrek spin-off Puss In Boots released it's new Tv-spot and it's quite groovy.

When i heard about this spin-off, i thought they were miling the series out. I thought we had enough of Shrek and it's fairy tales. Time for something new.

But this way of thinking changed. I am quite impressed by Antonia Banderas and the awesome kitty.


New set photos from The Dark Knight Rises

You know what? I had it with these motherf***** spoilers on this motherf***** sets. I've looked at these because it's a journalist's nature to do so but please, they're just too many spoilers. I've seen catwoman in normal suit, some kind of weapon in a truck and shots from the Batwing.

I know it will look completely different than in real life but these are still spoilers and i want to be surprised in theaters. I'm going to provide you with the link but you don't have to click on it.

Disney's The Lone Ranger is back on track

A while ago we reported that The Lone Ranger was dead and the project was put on hold. But it seems now that it's back in action. 

 A project from Depp-Bruckheimer-Verbinski cancelled? My first thought was nuts. I mean, it's a perfect combo and if they could bring the spirit of the first Pirates into The Lone Ranger, well that would be magical. But the primary concern was the budget ( 250 million )

Bruckheimer and Verbinski were able to chop the budget down to 215 million, which is still a lot. 

I mean, with such an amount of money you could make eight awesome movies. My expectations will be that high. 

Johnny Depp (Tonto), Armie Hammer(Lone Ranger) and Ruth Wilson (Luther) are expected to be back.

It's unknown if it will hit it's original December 2012 release date. Let's hope not because that month is stoked with awesome movie releases. ( Hobbit, Django Unchained, World War Z, Les Miserables )

_________________________________________________________
Let's end with an awesome thing: nudes of Scarlett Johansson. 
EDIT: Sorry, one minute after the upload i had to take them down from the FBI. Or else they'll confiscate my pc. But hey, i got an alternative. A song about her! From Jacksfilms, Tobuscus, SeanKlitzner, Jason Horton and Tay Zonday.



It's more than a feeling

Hello you Moviefans. This is a completely different and small post on what i have been doing today. Not interested? Alright, here's  a picture of a frog. You should stare at it.


I'd like to let you know that college starts again tomorrow and....................................
this will not affect the blog. Didn't expect that huh? Normally you'd expect that i would talk about less posts and activity dropping which is normal blog behaviour( I have a Phd in Blog Psychology ) and then they'll never post again but no! Not in my case!

So, in the past i've talked about Filmtopia, a new dutch filmblog which would see the light soon but i'm putting it on hold. Instead, i started blogging again on my other blog, Gonzo Style.

I recenty discovered that the blog had alot of activity ( 1/3th of MMB ) so i'm restarting this one. Expect a weekly post over there. Here's the new post:  ( I'm reviewing Final Destination 5 so it still has something to do with movies!)


I'll check your comments and view your blog tomorrow so don't worry if i'm a bit late on replying to your blogs. Oh and before i forget, i'm designing some t-shirts at the moment and they'll be available soon. Might do some give aways once in a while.

Et voila. We are through for today. I leave you with this.( And apologies for the English, i made a few grammatical mistakes but hey, this post is a bit off the road, doesn't matter! )

Scarface Rises, Girl with The Dragon Tattoo, Zombiefest and Community!



Welcome back to MMB for your 
bi-weekly injection of  movie news! 
Don't worry, the needle is sterile.
                                                                                             

No BFX for this week because most of them were useless for us, except if you're interested in filming a fight scene or watching a 21-minute long episode of Mad Monster Lab on make up( skimmed it). In fact, the fight scene could be useful... Ok let's share them quickly!


And now, let's watch some great FilmState trailers!


Universal wants new Scarface movie
 I'm Tony Montana! You fuck with me, you fuckin' with the best!

Universal is preparing a third Scarface movie, which will be reimagined for modern times like Brian De Palma did. The Original Scarface was a film noire released in 1932. This movie took place in Chicago, back then the haven for gangsters.

The producer will be Martin Bregman, the one who was responsible for the 1983 remake so that's good news.

I'm kind of interested to see what they will do with it. as Tony Montana would say: "Universal best not f*** this movie up!"

This is just a side note but ROCKSTAR, WHY U NO MAKE GTA: VICE CITY 2?


Girl With The Dragon Tattoo gets full trailer


 The full trailer has been spotted on the internet for David Fincher's Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. While the first trailer/teaser was packed with action this one has a slower pace, giving it time to explain the plot. I know the story from end to beginning so i'm not surprised anymore but i know some of you will.

All eyes are on Lisbeth Salander( Rooney Mara), and Mara might be able to perform a good Salander, but she'll be always in the shadows of Noomi Rapace's brilliant performance in the Swedish trilogy.

Daniel Craig keeps the English accent as Rooney Mara has that Swedish-English accent which contributes great to the trailer. And the soundtrack...wow.



The Rum Diary poster and TV spot
A new poster has been released online for johnny Depp's The Rum Diary and a Tv Spot. Shawoowiee
Still don't like the first song but the other song fits the glove.




Milla Jovovich talks Resident Evil 5

The Resident Evil 5 actress has been updating her fans on Twitter about what they can expect in the upcoming movie.

So, what has she shared? Let's take a look.

* he Umbrella Corporation kidnaps K-Mart (Spencer Locke), Chris Redfield (Wentworth Miller) and Claire (Ali Larter).
* Jensen Ackles won't be playing former Raccoon City cop Leon Scott Kennedy(but  character will appear in the film. )
* Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) returns from Resident Evil: Afterlife. 
* S.T.A.R.S. weapons specialist Barry Burton and agent Ada Wong both appear, with no word on casting yet. 
* Colin Salmon plays James 'One' Shade, having last played the role in the 2002 Resident Evil movie. 
* Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) will become one of the main antagonists. 



Resident Evil: Retribution is currently shooting in Canada and director Paul W.S. Anderson is listening to fan feedback. Well, here is mine: No more 3D. The movie was meh. I want it to go back to the first film, that claustrofobic feel being stuck in a research facility underground with a bunch of zombies surrounding you... 

Yeah, that was awesome. And i hated the short hair look in RE4. but loved Chris Redfield and i'm rambling on and on :D

also, the costume for RE3 was ffin hot and awesome at the same time. Why can't she wear that the whole time, seriously :D


Walking Dead New Promo
You know how i feel about this series? I feel like a zombie tearing up heads for those delicious raw brain. MOOOOOOOOORRRRREEEEEE




Community Season 3 is awesome
If you watched The Big Bang Theory yesterday then you have no idea that NBC has a much better alternative: Community! It's original, awesome, creative and geniunly funny! And it's stuffed with references like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Cougar Town, Doctor Who( Inspector Spacetime) and the awesomeness of John Goodman covered. OH, and Annie's Boobs. And the other video is an awesome remix of S1&S2 :D



Muppets go Mental, Rec Tres: The Wedding and more Tintin


Welcome back to MMB for your 
bi-weekly injection of  movie news! 
Don't worry, the needle is sterile.
                                                                                             

I started this blog on 9 October 2010, nearly a year ago, and i've been looking through my old posts. Most of the old followers and commenters are long gone, only a few are still up and running. ( Bonjour Tristesse and Lvl 85 Nerd ) So most of you don't know what will happen with this Blog in October. These festivities will start on 10 October, which is pretty soon. So you're warned! 

Another issue that i want to discuss is the shortfilm i'm making. At the moment we're out of money and we are still collecting our gear and props. So we kinda need your help on this. If you like to donate i've added a button to this blog. The donation will go to Spring Hill Entertainment, our Indie production company. Every dollar is welcome and you will be added to the credits!
 


But hey, if you don't have a Paypal or don't want to pay, there are other ways to help a fellow Blogger reach his goals *wink*

Alright, back the movies with a smashing new episode of FilmRiot! ( you'll see why it's smashing )

 

This just in: DiCaprio’s J Edgar trailer online 

The trailer for Leonardo DiCaprio's J Edgar went online yesterday. Exciting news for every Eastwood Fan, including me!

DiCaprio commands the screen as the young J Edgar in this long-awaited movie from Clint Eastwood.

Is this going to be the Oscar grabber of 2011? Let's cross our fingers for Leonardo! He may win his first Oscar. But let's be honest, the last quarter of 2011 will be very competive!



New Muppets trailer parodies Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

  I love these trailer parodies of The Muppets. The Marketing division is doing a great job promoting the Muppets. I love it! And i saw some Neil Patrick Harris.

Oh yeah, before i forget, the seventh season on How I Met Your Mother has begun this weekend. I still have to watch the first two episodes though. ItT's going to be Legen-wait for it - Dary! ( both The Muppets and HIMYM )

More Tintin pictures online

A Tintin image gallery has been found online. I am so excited for this CG movie!
I just love Haddock!

The Adventures Of Tintin: The Secret Of The Unicorn opens on 26 October 2011.



Rec 3: Genesis teaser trailer online 

The first teaser trailer for Spanish horror [REC]³ GĂ©nesis has appeared online. 

It looks different than the previous Rec movies, both of which were located inside an infected apartment block. At first sight they removed the first-person look which is weird. I wouldn't call my movie Rec if you ain't gonna use handcams. It's just a teaser so we'll see.
