'Wayne's World 3' Script is Finished

Ever since the epic disaster that was 2008's "The Love Guru," Mike Meyers has been conspicuously absent from the big screen. He did a small cameo in "Inglorious Basterds," provided the voice of Shrek in "Shrek Forever" two years ago and then he disappeared into his man cave to draw up a new plan of attack to resuscitate his flagging career.

Well, now that exciting new plan has been revealed, as JoBlo is reporting that he has just completed the first draft for the script to... "Wayne's World 3."

Guess we're about to party on like it's 1992.

That's when the first "Wayne's World" became a surprise smash hit, of course, turning Meyers into an instant A-list star. And just a year later, Meyers and his former "Saturday Night Live" compadre Dana Carvey followed up their hit with the equally successful "Wayne's World 2." So that's cool and everything.

On the other hand, there are a lot of things people enjoyed in the '90s that are no longer real popular, like pogs, slap bracelets and connecting to bulletin board systems using your 900 baud modem. In fact, chances are many fans have no idea what that sentence even meant, which is probably the same reaction they will have to news that there is something called "Wayne's World" to begin with.

Still, to people pushing 40, this is welcome news. Whether or not younger audiences will find the humor in a two decade old joke, though, may determine if Mike Meyers gets a second career wind — or just gets sent back into seclusion. Good luck, Wayne and Garth.

Finding Nemo Movie Sequel In The Pipeline


A sequel to the hugely popular Pixar movie Finding Nemo is in development, it has been reported.
Deadline claims that the 2003 film's director Andrew Stanton has been signed-up to helm the project.

Stanton, who also directed the Oscar-winning Wall-E, is returning to animations after his live action debut John Carter was a box office flop.

There is no news yet on whether Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks or Willem Dafoe will be reprising their voice roles in Nemo 2, but Deadline's Mike Fleming claimed Pixar is delighted with the director's plans.

He wrote: "I’m told he's now officially come aboard the Finding Nemo sequel and has a concept the studio loves."

There has been no official confirmation.

The Dark Knight Rises only hours away

The Dark Knight Rises the wait is almost over and is only hours away from hitting the big screens.
And the anticipation is so big for this movie there is theaters across the UK & Ireland showing advanced shows at 5:30am tomorrow morning so people can see it before even going to work. And thearters across the US are showing 24 hour screenings.

Synopsis: It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act.

But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.

So for one last time check out the movie trailer & movie posters

First Look At Ben Whishaw As Q

Here's a first look at the head of Branch Q, the one-time Armorer Division of Her Majesty's Secret Service, fiddling about with a new device. Judging by the spew of data behind him and the vaguely non-plussed look on 007's face he could be in the middle of one of his too-much-information data dumps on James Bond.

Grabbers gets a release date

Grabbers is finally getting a cinematic release. It’s taken a bit of time, but we’re pretty sure it's going to be worth the wait. After being in distribution limbo for a while, Element pictures have picked up the distribution rights for the movie that was recently described as “feckin brilliant” in the Edinburgh Reporter.

Grabbers will open the Galway Film Fleadh on July 10th and will go on general release from August 10th!

Synopsis: Directed by Jon Wright, GRABBERS tells the story of Ciarán O’Shea, a charming but heavy-drinking local Garda who is tasked with greeting Lisa Nolan, a straight-laced young officer who has just arrived to a small fishing village off the West coast of Ireland. Not that there’s much for them to do, aside from dealing with the occasional drunk, and that’s usually O’Shea himself. But strange doings are afoot: the crew of a fishing boat disappears, whales start appearing dead on the shore, a local lobsterman catches a strange tentacled creature in his trap. Soon it becomes clear to Garda O’Shea and Nolan that there’s something big out there, and that it’s hungry. It’s time to rally the villagers, arm the troops…and head to the pub!

Released: August 10th

Taken 2 Trailer Escapes Online

'We will have our revenge...'

While he was understandably miffed that slave traders kidnapped his daughter back in 2008’s Taken, Liam Neeson is now learning that his violent, stabby / shooty reaction had consequences. Here comes the trailer for Taken 2, which finds the heroic Bryan Mills in a spot of trouble thanks to Rade Serbedzija’s Murad and his need for revenge. Take a look below it looks AWESOME.

After a pleasant surprise visit from daughter Kim (Maggie Grace) and wife Lenore (Famke Janssen) in Istanbul, Bryan gets a less enjoyable shock when Lenore is targeted and he’s threatened. Guess what he’s going to do? Go on, we bet you can’t figure out that he’s going to use his particular set of skills to try to save his family (and himself) once more.

Olivier Megaton takes over the directing chores this time around and delivers almost exactly what you’d expect based on this footage. We know Neeson can deliver the action goods, so the only real question is, will this live up to the original?

Taken 2 will hit our screens on October 5.

Rihanna Gets New Film Role

Since attending Battleship press, Rihanna has been very vocal about taking a break from her hectic music schedule to take more film roles. It looks like Rihanna got her wish, and recently scored a role alongside The Big Bang Theory actor Jim Parsons.

The Hollywood Reporter exclusively announced the news that Jim Parsons and Pop singer Rihanna will star in a DreamWorks film called Happy Smekday!, an animated film about an alien race that invades Earth and uses the planet to hideout from their number one enemy.
The film will be Rihanna’s first animated film, which is actually an adaptation of Adam Rex’s book titled “The True Meaning of Smekday.” In the director’s chair is Tim Johnson a man who’s no stranger to the animation world. In the past he’s co-directed DreamWorks Animation’s popular hits such as Antz and Over the Hedge. This project starring Rihanna and Parsons will be his first time going solo.

Smekday! was described as a magical film that makes an alien invasion sound friendly, which sees the aliens using Earth as their ultimate hideout place from their enemy. Of course, one naive alien notifies his whereabouts to their enemy. Because of that he is then cast out and forced to run from the scene with a teenage girl. Their on the run journey takes them on what’s said to be a comical road-trip across a post-apocalyptic backdrop. Together they learn about each others differences and common bond.

The animated film is slated to be released during the fourth quarter in 2014.

The Hangover boys to Sin again

The Hangover 3 will see the lads returning to Las Vegas.

While the second instalment in the comedy franchise - starring Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis - was set in Asia, the third and final movie will be based in the gambling capital in the state of Nevada.

According to the Las Vegas Sun, parts of the film featuring guest star Mike Tyson will be shot just off the Las Vegas Strip and at Caesars Palace.

The movie is set to feature the friends trying to spring Alan (Galifianakis) from a mental hospital and will also be shot in Tijuana and Los Angeles with production expected to begin in September.

Director Todd Phillips is back on board for the project and promised the customary "mayhem, despair and bad decisions".

He said: "I'm so excited to embark on another Hangover film with Bradley, Ed and Zach. We're going to surprise a lot of people with the final chapter we have planned.

"It will be a fitting conclusion to our three-part opera of mayhem, despair and bad decisions."

Speaking about the project previously, leading man Bradley, who plays Phil, claimed it would be unlikely to "adhere to the structure" of the previous two movies.

He said: "We adhered to the formula in the second one, for those of you who've seen it, and the third one, which would close the whole, sort of, trilogy, which now it would be a trilogy - even though we thought we would never make a second one, let alone anybody see the first one.

"I think it will maybe not adhere to the structure. It might be different."


Third outing ... the Hangover lads

Michael Bay Transforms Expectations For 'Transformers 4'

It's no surprise that Michael Bay is currently working on "Transformers 4" despite his assurances that "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" would be his last installment of the franchise. After all, $1.1 billion dollars worldwide has a way of making you reconsider your career path.

But what is a surprise is what he's saying about "Transformers 4:" There will be no Shia LaBeouf and no Sam Witwicky.

"It's a new cast," Bay told The Los Angeles Times. “We’ve moving on to something different."

And just how different may surprise even the most hardcore "Transformers" fan.

Before we get into details, though, we want to make one thing clear: "Transformers 4" is not going to be an "Amazing Spider-Man" style reboot. How do we know? Because Bay talked at length on that very subject.

"It's not a reboot, that's maybe the wrong word," Bay said. "I don't want to say reboot because then people will think we're doing a 'Spider-Man' and starting from the beginning. We're not. We're taking the story that you've seen — the story we've told in three movies already — and we're taking it in a new direction. But we're leaving those three as the history. It all still counts."

So if there's no Sam Witwicky, just what is this new direction? Could it be straight up into outer space where the Decepticons and Autobots originally came from?

"I think so, yeah, a little," Bay said. "That feels like the way to go, doesn’t it? I want to go a little off but I don't want to go too sci-fi. I still want to keep it grounded.That’s what works in these movies, that’s what makes it accessible.

"It's kind of daunting and scary," Bay added. "You want to try to keep it going, to match what’s come before. We've accomplished a lot but that doesn't mean you get anything handed to you or that you've got everything figured out."

Well, here's hoping he gets it all figured out before "Transformers 4" hits theaters in 2014. After all, fans are expecting more than meets the eye — they're expecting to be blown away. And that's something Bay is very, very good at.

Carrey Ditches Dumb & Dumber Sequel

It was all going so well for the Dumb & Dumber sequel… At least, it seemed to be. But the Farrelly brothers’ plan to return to the film that launched them onto an unsuspecting world has hit a serious roadblock as Jim Carrey has decided to drop out of starring as Lloyd Christmas.

So if you were in any way looking forward to seeing Carrey back as Lloyd alongside Jeff Daniels as Harry Dunne, you’re going to be disappointed. According to Entertainment Tonight’s sources (as picked up by The Hollywood Reporter), the big sticking point was the perceived lack of studio support from Warners and New Line. "I would have thought Dumb & Dumber Two was a no-brainer, after all it's implied in the title," Carrey said in a statement.

Of course, there’s always the chance the studio could coax him back and things will return to full speed in development. After all, we're talking about the Farrellys, who waited years to get The Three Stooges on the screen. They're patient. Even if they have to recreate Carrey digitally from bits of his wacky website, they'll make this happen.

With Peter and Bobby looking to get back in the shared director’s chair, Sex Drive team Sean Anders and John Morris were on board to write the script. The big question now: will the Carrey squawk about more money before signing on?

Latest Trailer For The Watch Hits (Ben Stillers new movie)

Stiller's chilling with his crew

We’ve already had a couple of trailers for Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn and Jonah Hill’s new comedy The Watch, but 20th Century Fox’s international team figured we could all do with one more. So now, dug up by the team at The Film Stage, comes the latest promo, which does actually feature a fair amount of new footage.

We’re also given a little bit more plot this time around, introduced to Stiller as a slightly overachieving busybody who runs various organisations intended to make his suburban neighbourhood pristine and perfect.

But when he decides to launch a Neighbourhood Watch program, the recruits' intentions aren’t quite as community-minded. There’s Bob (Vaughn) who sees the Watch as a chance to hang with a crew and avoid family responsibility. Franklin (Hill) is a young man with a yearning for real power, who tried out for the police department but was rejected because he’s a violent loon when provoked. And then there’s Jamarcus (Richard Ayoade, finally given more to do here) who… well, he’s got his own reasons for signing on.

We also get some brief moments with Stiller’s wife (Rosemarie DeWitt) and little extra peek at the aliens that the group tangles with.

The Watch arrives on August 29.

Jurassic Park Goes 3D


The original Jurassic Park movie arrives back in cinemas with a 3D conversion on July 19, 2013 in the States and possibly the same day here. This movie was a Box-Office mash on both sides of the Atlantic. And people can still remember the screams for the audience in movie theaters.

Here is the movie trailer below!!

Dredd trailer looks awesome

Now this is how you do a Judge Dredd movie. After copious amounts of images dropped for this reboot, we now get a trailer, giving us our first proper look of what is in store. I just love the entire look and feel you get from this trailer, Karl Urban seems like a good fit for Joe Dredd, and some of the action promised looks really impressive. Roll on September.

Synopsis: The future America is an irradiated waste land. On its East Coast, running from Boston to Washington DC, lies Mega City One- a vast, violent metropolis where criminals rule the chaotic streets. The only force of order lies with the urban cops called “Judges” who possess the combined powers of judge, jury and instant executioner. Known and feared throughout the city, Dredd (Karl Urban) is the ultimate Judge, challenged with ridding the city of its latest scourge – a dangerous drug epidemic that has users of “Slo-Mo” experiencing reality at a fraction of its normal speed.

During a routine day on the job, Dredd is assigned to train and evaluate Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby), a rookie with powerful psychic abilities thanks to a genetic mutation. A heinous crime calls them to a neighborhood where fellow Judges rarely dare to venture- a 200 story vertical slum controlled by prostitute turned drug lord Ma-Ma (Lena Headey) and her ruthless clan. When they capture one of the clan’s inner circle, Ma-Ma overtakes the compound’s control center and wages a dirty, vicious war against the Judges that proves she will stop at nothing to protect her empire. With the body count climbing and no way out, Dredd and Anderson must confront the odds and engage in the relentless battle for their survival.

The endlessly inventive mind of writer Alex Garland and director Pete Travis bring DREDD to life as a futuristic neo-noir action film. Filmed in 3D with stunning slow motion photography sequences, the film returns the celebrated character to the dark, visceral incarnation from John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra's revered comic strip.

Released: 7th September 2012 (U.K./IRE)/
