MyMovies.Net Update
Kobra Khan! Yes, it is I - back once again with the
renegade master and bopping up all over your crib in a
film-related fashion. In the words of Duke Nukem; "it's
time to blithely bang on about a bunch of movies and
then chew bugglegum....and I'm all out of gum" or
something along those lines.
It's
been something of a damp squid in the halls of movie
manor this week - very little to get excited about
pre-"Iron Man" but as ever, I, your faithful servant,
was on hand to get up in the grills of the rich and
famous to discuss their latest paychecks. And the first
'grill' frequented belonged to the lovely Jessica Alba
who was in town to promote "The
Eye" - a fairly competent little shocker and
actually goes some way to proving that Extreme Asian
Cinema can be adapted and adapted successfully at that.
OK, so there's nothing here you havn't seen before,
well...except Alba emoting for a change, but "The
Eye" is worth a watch. And here's J to the
Alba to tell us all about it...
Decidedly
less good is "Deception"
- a low-rent noir thriller produced by and starring Hugh
Jackman. This purports to be a twisty, erotic, exercise
in suspense but it turns out to be more a case of linear
storytelling, plot holes ago-go and all the eroticism of
a slice of gruyere cheese. Not even a lovely looking
Michelle Williams can address that balance and even Obi
Wan finds himself drawn in to this hokey mess. I managed
to catch up with Ewan McGregor to get the lowdown on "Deception"
and guage the Jedi Master's thoughts on his latest
offering...
Now
I could round off proceedings with new look at the
latest and greatest heading your way soon but the truth
is there's simply very few new trailers out there. So
how about instead a reminder of what looks set to be one
of, if not the, best blockbuster to hit this summer.
Meet one Mr. Bruce Wayne. He's
Batman don't you know and here he is looking
all badass and brooding in the brand new official
poster. And we only have four more days to wait for a
new trailer!!!! Booh yeah!

MyMovies.Net Update
"Here comes the hotstepper, murderer - I’m the lyrical
gangster, murderer - Pick up the crew in-a de area,
murderer - Still love you like that, murderer" Yes, that
was the one and only Kamoze Ini...truly a catchy little
number but I can't say as that I agree with the
sentiment. After every nicety there's the reminder that
he is infact a very bad man, not too averse to hurting
someone. And that's just not how we roll here on the
MyMovies blog.
And
nor, I would imagine, is it the rolling method of
Kate Hudson and
Matthew McCounaghey...how's that for a
tenuous link?! Yes these two are at it again like
rabbits - this time swapping the fun 'n' frolics of "How
to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" for a spot of treasure hunting
in "Fool's
Gold". It would certainly be a fool's errand
if you actually went to see this film but if lightweight
rom-com is your thing then why not check out this
red carpet report featuring The McHudson.
Slightly
more upmarket, and a cinematic offering that doesn't
make you feel sullied and used with its tanned-up,
gold-hunting, high jinx, is "Happy-Go-Lucky".
Mike Leigh is back doing the whole social exlporation
'thing' and here he has opened up a nice feel good can
of worms gawd bless him. We even managed to track down
the star of the whole freakin' show,
Sally Hawkins, so that she might wax lyrical
and generally pontificate wildly about her work with
Mike 'The Spike' Leigh.
What? Still not satisfied?!!! Well I'm sick of it! Sick
of it I say!!! Actually that's not true - I live to
serve you guys and serve I shall with this frankly
soul-jingling clip for the incoming "Iron
Man". How about a touch of the Iron Man all
up in his heesouse. You know you love it! Yep, summer is
fast approaching and the metal-clad hero is here to
usher in another season of high concept popcorn mayhem!
Bring it!
