Whats next for Scream

In case you havent heard, Scream 4 is coming out Apr. 15th and I'm just going to say it: The only one thats been good so far is the first one!

So is it really worth it to spend 10 bucks on the 4th one when they have such a bad track record? The only way the producers can convince audiences that this one will be good is to market the heck out of this movie. Which has not been happening. But watch the trailer and judge for yourself:





I will say I like the return of that freaky mask, it reminds me of the good times I had watching the first movie. But it'll be interesting to see if people flock to the theater on opening weekend.

Miss Watson drops out but vows to return

Emma Watson dropped out of Brown this week claiming that she it just too busy with her acting career. Here is her statement from her website:

Hi everyone

As you know, I love Brown and I love studying pretty much more than anything but recently I've had so much to juggle that being a student AND fulfilling my other commitments has become a little impossible.

I've decided to take a bit of time off to completely finish my work on Harry Potter (the last one comes out this summer) and to focus on my other professional and acting projects. I will still be working towards my degree... it’s just going to take me a semester or two longer than I thought : )

Hope you are all well! Thank you for all your continuing support.

I guess even movie stars get stressed out by college. I hope people take this as a reminder of how challenging college really is. So many people (I'm talking to you mom and dad) underestimate the work students put into their academic career. Sure we have fun, but most of us are truly dedicated to our course work.

I wish Miss Watson the very best and she better make her way back to school as soon as her work allows.

Post-award season blues

The question everyone should be asking themselves is: Well, what now?
Award season is over and I already miss all the buzz and speculations that surrounds this wonderful time of the year. I'm having a hard time moving on...
I've tried to find some movie stuff to get excited about but I just find something that measures up to the challenge. Its like the excitement has just gone into hibernation.
And I refuse to resort to criticizing what the actors wore to the event! They have feelings you know, and for the most part, everyone looked amazing. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise Nichole Kidman.
So, you tell me: What am I supposed to do now?

Who won in that other award show?

So I'm sure you already heard the news about who won at The Academy Awards, so I won't go into that. However, the night before Hollywood's biggest party, The Razzie's announced their winners.

Most notably, The Last Airbender won 5 awards including worst director, picture, and screenplay. pretty hard hit for the film. I didn't watch it but I've never felt to proud to say I saved my 10 bucks and skipped this one.

Other interesting category's was worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-off, or Sequel, which went to Sex and the City 2. Again, no argument here, those hum....ladies, are getting too old for comfort. They had a good thing going with the first movie, but they just had to kill it. Some people just don't know when to quit. Hopefully they won't aim for a comeback.

To check out a list of all the winners check out this article.

Let me know what you think, do you think they left out any horrible movies?

Remake alert!

Hollywood is looking for someone to fill Whitney Houston's shoes for the remake the 1992 movie The Bodyguard.

For those of you who never heard of it before, here is the official description of the old film:
A well-known entertainer, stalked by an obsessive fan, hires an ex-Secret Service agent to protect her and the two fall in love.

I'm assuming they will put some modern twist in it and include some cyber stalking. Regardless I'm hesitant of the idea of remaking this movie. I have seen it and to be honest, it's not that memorable. I don't see the appeal of watching a new version of something that wasn't that good to begin with.

I am curious to see the new cast. What if it was Beyonce? Would you go watch that? Or Lady Gaga? That would be...interesting.

What do you think about the remake? Is it worth it? Who should star?

Where would you put your Oscar?

So I stumbled on this article on Yahoo! about where the stars put their niffty Oscar awards. I reccomend you check it out and ask your self, what would you do with the prized award.

What about a bullet-prof case in Sue Sulvester style? A cheerleading national championchip may not be as public as the Oscar, so the actor should take special care to protect thier prize from an attempted assacination.

I don't really see the appeal of placing your Oscar in the bathroom, no matter how much it matches your facet... I think actors just like to be weird. Saying that your Oscar is in your office, isn't as cool or 'hip' as saying you want to melt it down to make a doornob.

Let me know what you think, where would you like your Oscar?

Yay! More super hero trailers



No sarcasm here, I'm genuinely excited about super hero movies. Since the teaser trailer of X-Men First Class, I've been looking forward to the first official trailer.
Looks promising to me especially because of the Cuban Missile Crisis reference. Alternate realities are always fun for someone like me who loves history... or at least the History Channel.
I can't really say I know the comics but I remember watching the original cartoon, which I loved. From what I compared in the other movies, they don't follow the comics that much but I don't mind. A good story is always going to be good regardless of what the comics say. To all you comic lovers, please don't stone me for saying that!
