Trailer: New Moon (2009)

So the second part of the Twilight Saga: New Moon (as it is being listed everywhere, Twilight Saga) . . . here is the official trailer for the movie.

This means that I now have 5 months to read New Moon . . .

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Movie – Twilight

Again no suprise at all here. All of the Twilight fans must have been out in force on the voting front over the past few weeks. Dont get me wrong while I have been posting these as I love Twilight. I loved the book more than the movie, but it was still good. I just think when you compare to the other nominations, such as “The Dark Knight” and even “Iron Man”. I bet HSM3 was second to Twilight.

But anyway I do enjoy these awards as it gives other movies and actors a chance to realise that they were found entertaining. When the Oscar noms and winners may not have brought in as many people to watch the movies.

I will definatly be posting some pictures tomorrow . . .

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Comedic Performance – Jim Carrey

YAY for Jim. I have always been a massive fan of his, and I am glad he won this award. I cannot really comment too much on the other nominees as I have not seen many of those performances.

While “Yes Man” was not the best it was very funny with a nice message attached to it. Kinda reminded me of “Click”.

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Female Performance – Kristen Stewart

Yep very predictable . . . another for Twilight.

Especially in a strong cateogry . . . I mean come on Kate won her Oscar for “The Reader”. But never mind eh ?

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Song – Miley Cyrus, The Climb

YAY for Miley and this song, as I really do find the lyrics inspirational and brilliant.

But I am sad because Bruce Springsteen was nominated for “The Wrestler” and I love that loads and loads. But still happy with the winner.

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Kiss – Twilight

Yep another award for Twilight. This time to both Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. I bet it was quite a close one to call with Zac and Vanessa being nominated for HSM3.

I thought the kiss between James and Angelina for Wanted was very hot !!! But what about Sean Penn and James Franco, in “Milk” that was brilliant !!!

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Male Performance – Zac Efron

YAY for Zac *goes in search of pictures*

Yes I do for some strange reason get very fangirly over Zac he is just too pretty for words. He managed to beat out Christian Bale, Robert Downey Jr, Vin Diesel and Shia LeBeouf . . . so well done to Zac. HSM3 !!!

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Male Breakthrough – Robert Pattinson

Totally not suprised by this at all, I did just say that Twilight would start to sweep up !!! Well done to Robert

I dont think there was any doubt that he wouldnt win this award, I bet Taylor Lautner was the closest to Robert. The whole Edward, Jacob thing going on haha.

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Fight – Twilight

I am going to predict that this is the start of the Twilight sweep of awards.

Looking at the other nominations, I would have gone for the fight between Batman and the Joker in “The Dark Knight”. Dont get me wrong I love Twilight and a bit of Edward Cullen aka Robert Pattinson but BATMAN !!!

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Best Villain – Heath Ledger

Another awards show and another rightly given award to the brilliant Heath Ledger, for his potrayal as the Joker in “The Dark Knight”. I love that this was voted for by the fans, everyone sees how incredible this performance is.

MTV Movie Awards 2009 – Breakthrough Performance Female – Ashley Tisdale

MTV Movie Awards are on going at this very moment.

Ashley Tisdale has picked up the award for breakthrough female performance, for her role in High School Musical 3.

Just looked through the other nominations, and I find this quite a surprise as it was a pretty tough category. With Amanda Seyfried from Mamma Mia! being nominated and Miley for Hannah Montana.

3000 Hits !!!

The blog now has over 3000 hits, in about 3 months.

I think that is pretty good going. I hope if people keep coming back to the blog that they are enjoying my reviews, the latest news, movie posters, and my lists of top 10’s and the current 100 sexiest actors posts.

News: Jolie Too Old For Tomb Raider

Awww I think thats a shame, as Angie is still HOT.

Angelina Jolie has been ditched by the producers of the Tomb Raider movies after they decided she’s now too old for the role.

The Hollywood beauty starred in the first two Tomb Raider films in 2001 and 2003, but movie bosses will replace the 33-year-old with a younger star for the next instalment.

Producer Dan Lin says, “We are rebooting Lara Croft. It’s a great story that we’re going to tell, very character-orientated and more realistic than the past movies. It is an origin tale so it’s going to be a younger Lara Croft.”

News: Keaton Still Bats For Batman Fans

Awww this is really cool !!! I love Batman !!!

Michael Keaton thrilled a young Batman fan with a visit to the set of his new film after spotting the kid sporting a homemade superhero costume.

Keaton took over directorial duties on the set of The Merry Gentleman when filmmaker Ron Lazzeretti’s appendix burst and had to give up the project.

The actor thrilled cast and crew with his personable nature – and showed it extended to fans too.

Co-star Tom Bastounes explains, “One day we were filming in a park and there was little boy there and he had a makeshift Batman outfit on. It wasn’t like a store-bought one. He made it at home.

“He had the pointy ears and the mask and he had a Batman symbol on his chest. Michael noticed him from across the street and walked over.

“Of course the mum noticed him right away and made a big fuss. The kid was about four or five. Michael signed the kid’s cape and signed something for the mum. Then he brought them both to the set and they watched some of the shoot. He’s very sweet that way.

“He’s very generous with his time but you still have these pinch me moments, where you suddenly realise, ‘Hey, I’m working with Batman.’”

Keaton played the Caped Crusader in Tim Burton’s Batman and Batman Returns films.

Hachiko: A Dog’s Story (2009) Poster

After the picture of the day containing Richard, and now coming across this poster for Hachiko: A Dog’s Story, I can really feel another dose of a Richard Gere phase. Which first occured about 5/6 years ago now, haha. So maybe I will have to search Netflix later and see which Richard filled movie I can watch

Movie Picture of the Day 18

Onto 70 to 61 . . . the next 10 in my list . . .

Eddie (1996) Review

Eddie is a massive fan of the New York Knicks, with a big mouth and likes to make herself heard during games. She works as a limo driver and at first she does not realise that she picks up the new owner of the Knicks from the airport and drops him at his place.

As it happens, he hears her at a game and manages to get her onto the court for the half time competition. The winner of the competition is honorary coach for the second part of the game. Much to the annoance of the head coach. But the fans loved her. So Bill got her back for the next game, which caused the coach to walk out. So Eddie became the head coach of the Knicks. The players did not respond very well to this at all. This was just for the game.

But when Bill realised how much press Eddie was getting, he made her head coach full time. The players would not talk to her, would not practice or anything. But over time she realised that each of the players had personal problems and she helped them sort it all out.

So yes as you would guess they started playing well, and starting winning games. And got to the playoff’s, but not before a little drama of Bill going to sell the Knicks and move them from NY to St. Louis. But yes they won and made the playoff’s so it was rather predicitable, but with it being Whoopi, it was entertaining.

Remember the Titans (2000) Review

This really does have to be one of the best American Football movies out there. Denzel is just fantastic as Coach Boone. He really did show all of the emotions that the coach would have went through so well throughout the movie. How hard he was on the players, being sick before the first game after finding out he would loose his job if he lost a game, how he used humour and how he battled against the racism. He really was the perfect choice for this role, having the authority in him and being able to just own the screen.

This is based on a real story of the High School Football team the Titans. In 1971 in Tennesse two schools were merged together, thus bringing the black and white communities together. Which caused a lot of outrage and protests at the school. But the football team was the turning point for everyone. It helped bring the town together.

The team camp was probably the best part in my opinion, as they would not even talk to each other at the start of it and by the end of it they were singing and joking about with each other. It was important for them to get along to be able to play together. And out of the way of there parents and everyone else who thought they should not mix. They became friends with each other and helped each other through different things.

They all standed united together and that really helped everyone in the town, as they all loved the team and loved that the team was winning. I really liked Coach Yoast as well, because he had good morals and could have easily lost a game and got himself the hall of fame. But the team meant more to him than anything else. I also really liked how the two coaches became friends with one another. Sheryl, Coach Yoast’s daughter was just fantastic. She was like another coach, she just loved football and I thought that was just fantastic !!! She was so passionate about it all, and lived for it.

Gary was the captain, all American football player. He did not like Coach Boone to begin with, like the other white players as they were Yoast’s players. But in the end they really did get on with each other. Gary gets into a car accident before the state cup final, and is paralysed from the waist down. So he can therefore not play football anymore. But he did go onto win a gold medal at an olympic games.

I really enjoyed the way the story was told through Sheryl and how it ended at Gary’s funeral as he died 10 years after the Titans had the perfect season. The funeral showed how together the team was and still cared for one another 10 years after first meeting and having a good season and also changing the whole mentality of the town.
