Little Harry Potter is all grown up… Or did they just replace him with Elijah Wood?
Don’t put your wallets away yet…
Peter Jackson talks about the impending release of “ultimate” LOTR trilogy DVD release.
The “ultimate” DVDs will not have further re-edits of the films, but will include deleted scenes, a feature length documentary on the making of the trilogy, and possibly (hopefully!) bloopers.
It’ll be a couple of years, so start saving your pennies.
Six degrees of Johnny Depp
Okay, four, but close enough…
Johnny Depp won a People’s Choice Award for favourite male movie star.
Mr Depp is keen to appear on the UKs “Little Britain.” And there’s an excellent chance of cross-dressing!
Yun-Fat Chow is apparently joining the cast of “Pirates of the Caribbean 2.”
And, finally, Depp says that he based his characterization of Willy Wonka on Marilyn Manson. Okkkayyyy.
DUHHHHHH! DUNDUNDUNDUN DUHHHHHHH!
Phantom of the Opera in 15 Minutes. Hilariously accurate, and streamlined for your amusement.
More fun with bad subtitling!
I shouldn’t laugh. Especially considering the calibre of my German. But what the hell.
Here we go with bad “Engrish” subtitling on “The Two Towers.” Apparently Gimli will need to be “toasted” rather than “tossed.” And just wait til you see what Gimli demands that wolf bring to his… uh… “axe.”
Thanks to Jessa for the link.
“You are a wing baron Frodo.”
The Frenzy Page offers some screen captures from a bootleg copy of “Fellowship of the Ring” with hilariously bad translations.
My personal favourites are, “So, Mr elf, you will enjoy the specialty of the drawfs” and “By night fall the hill will swamp over with ox.”
Ah, the joys of language.
Harry Potter Spoiler Pictures
The Leaky Cauldron starts out the year with some spoiler pictures from the filming of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Also check out the first picture of that woman we all love to hate: Rita Skeeter.
“Kingdom of Heaven” official site up
The official site for “Kingdom of Heaven” is up. Character listing. Story synopsis. The trailer in three sizes. All of the good. Not a whole lot of substance though.
AICN also had an early review from someone guy who saw a test screening a couple of weeks back. Full of spoilers, but quite positive.
A May 6 release date, at the start of the big movie season, and just two weeks before “Revenge of the Sith,” suggests the studio has quite a bit of confidence in it.
The right back alley…
I’m usually not much for guns-and-whores noir, but the trailer for Sin City, based on the comic books by Frank Miller, looks AMAZING. Word on the street is that the whole thing (save actors) is done with CGI, and that they capture scenes from the comics perfectly – right down to the flat black and white in some cases.
“Kingdom of Heaven” trailer online!
The “Kingdom of Heaven” trailer is now available online!
Chainmail. Big swords. Liam Neeson. And some guy called Orlando Bloom (who will apparently be wearing a chest-hair wig — I couldn’t make that up if I tried).
What’s not to love?
