Obsequiousmelon wishes that the wolf had got Red Riding Hood before he had to see it!

Name of the Film:  Red riding hood

Starring:  Amanda Seyfried, Gary Oldman

Slightly awkward dialogue?  Check.  Unconvincing love triangle?  Check.  Supposedly edgy bad boy who actually is incredibly safe and non threatening?  Check.  Turning something that used to be really cool into something incredibly gay?  Check.  Stupid people declaring undying love when they are clearly too young to know their arse hole from their elbow?  Check.  Catherine Hardwicke directing?  Check... There we have it, it can only be the twilight of werewolf movies... Bugger!

God damn you Catherine Hardwicke... God damn you!

Films I have to see now - Transformers, Fast Five, Thor, Green Lantern, The Mechanic, Arthur.

It's a relatively slow day today.  I'm getting excited about going to see Sucker Punch tomorrow (expect the review soon after) and I figured I would share some trailers about films I want to see that are coming up in the next few months.

Film news and tidbits!

I’ve got to be honest, I don’t really like Superman, never have.  But I am interested to see what Zack Snyder (guided by Christopher Nolan and using a script written by Christopher and Jonathan Nolan and David S. Goyer) does with the whole concept.  Recent news has only increased my interest, apparently Amy Adams has been cast as Lois Lane.  I like her, she is good in everything I have seen her in.  She joins Diane Lane and Kevin Costner as Clark Kent’s parents and Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent.  This is starting to look promising.

Films I want to see now - Captain America

I shared the Superbowl spot with you a few weeks back.  Well now we have a full trailer.  I give to you the first Captain America trailer.  I'm excited, how 'bout you?

Films I want to see now - TT3D

I love motorbikes.  It's a love affair that started when I was little after I heard tales of my mother riding around on a scooter when she was young.  It was then nurtured in my teens watching motor racing on tv, again with my mother.  In all that time I heard stories about the TT race on the Isle of Man.  It's one of those fabled races that England seems to produce, comparable in infamy to The Grand National Horse Race.
Here is the trailer for a new documentary TT3D, I don't know if it will be any good but, hell, I'm a sucker for fast bikes.

Obsequiousmelon had his world invaded and was a bit bored by it!

Name of the Film:  World Invasion / Battle LA (depending where you are from!  Why change the title because we are in Hong Kong????)

Starring:  Aaron Eckhart, Michelle Rodriguez.

When meteorites are headed to the earth everyone stands in awe.  But as it becomes clear that the meteorites are slowing down before impact the army are put on alert and the whole planet becomes a war zone.

Aaron Eckhart is moved, from training future soldiers, back into active service with an already established unit.  Can they get over their personal differences to complete their rescue mission?

Can one unit of american soldiers save the world..?

Games I want to play now!- Duke Nukem Forever.

I know I said I wouldn't do this again but this is so delightfully awesome, silly and over the top that i have to share!
