Eaten by the Pop-Corn Monster: My Fall Movie Preview

Might still be early mind you today's weather was intense but nonetheless here is my movie preview for fall and winter 2009 because we all know that eventually the leaves will fall and so will the weather, then followed by the snow, so here are some very interesting movies that will keep us busy while the world falls apart around us ;-)

For Starters, here are some pics from the NEW James Cameron movie titled Avatar. This is Cameron's first movie since Titanic, expectations are high for this one seeing that he has waited 14 years on this project for the technology to catch up with his vision. This movie is planned to be in full 3D with special camera's made just for this. Below are a few screenshots.

Second movie on my list is a children's classic, based on Maurice Sendak's book, Spike Jonze spins his take on the story and although the release date was put back on numerous occasion speculating that the movie was becoming a gigantic task and could possibly fail, take a look at theses pics and watch the trailer. You'll enjoy it.

If you haven't seen Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, Royal Tenembaums or The Life Aquatic, then make a movie and watch all four before rushing out this fall to see Wes Anderson's latest magical movie. This time changing things around and using classic stop motion animation to tell his story about the Fantastic Mr. Fox, voiced by George Clooney and also stars Jason Scwartzman and Bill Murray.

It's been a while since we had a bizarre comedy in the likes of Napoleon Dynamite. Director Jared Hess decided that it was time for us to get another glimpse of his bizarre universe in his latest comedy called Gentlemen Broncos. It's about a home school young man who gets his story ripped off by a science fiction writer named Ronald Chevalier (played by Jermain Clement from Flight of the Conchords). Judging by these pics and the trailer, this will be classic.

After years of remaining quiet but yet still very busy (District 9, Tintin, the Hobbit) Peter Jackson is back at doing what he does best and that's directing supernatural thrillers, not since The Frighteners in 1996 has Peter Jackson touched the subject. Here he is with The Lovely Bones. Based on the critically acclaimed novel by Alice Sebold, about a young girl who is murdered and decides to helps her family find her killer from heaven.... I'm ruining it by explaining it this way, just look at the screenshots and trailer and you'll get a better idea.

Just a mention, I found all these trailers on Apple's website, get the latest Quicktime to enjoy them all in HD.

Enjoy :-)

More From Warped Tour...

Ok

So I decided to put up the remaining Warped Tour '09 pics just to get them out there... seeing that I missed some good shows as of lately, figured I'd annoy you all with my final pics from Warped Tour '09.

First off, this is a pic of Rob Dyer, you may not know him and he's not in your favorite band, but this guy is fucking cool. Sadly he lost both his grandmothers and his mother to cancer. With all of this loss came great inspiration. Rob started Skate4Cancer and decided to cross the United States and Canada on his skateboard to spread his message. If you ever get the chance to meet him, he'll treat you like you already know him, he'll be your friend. Also if you meet him, buy his merch, my buddy Andrew and I bought 4 t-shirt between us for 5 dollars a t-shirt.

Head on over to Skate4Cancer for more info on the cause.


Here is a pic of Tatiana DeMaria, lead singer of the English punk band called TaT, she was really cool and really easy to talk to, I took this pic of her representing her sick MJ t-shirt. Note, this is my favorite Warped Tour pic...


Here are the rest of the pic that I took of the Gallows, just thought I'd get them all out there ;-)


Warped Tour crowd....
....
... nuff said.

Finally here are some pics of Washington's finest Metalcore band, Abacabb. Check them out, there not just your ordinary "thud, thud thud" band, they are really tight and intense.

Corsica Photo's Part 1

Corse, Corsica...

Ola, I loved it, it was really wow... and to think that on the first 2 days I was like "really, this is it?!" but towards the end when you're chilling on white beaches or in the mountains and it's like +30 in the shade on most days, then BAM, this is what it's all about, here are a few to brag mainly ;-) but just to give you a idea of the place.

More to come soon.

What to listen to this week

Hey

To some, I might be super late on this post but to the rest of you who miss some good old Hardcore Punk Rock and none of that fashion screaming crap, then go out and buy this record, itunes it or whatever. This bands comes to your town? go out and see them, on a previous post I mentioned how the Gallows saved my Warped Tour, well ever since, I've been none stop listening to this album, their first and all of the EP's and singles in between both, since all of this, my iPod died :-(

Well, I'll get over it but not over this band anytime soon.

Click HERE to get more info on the Gallows.


If I had a million dollars...

Ok
Now I'm not your car guy or anything like that, but this car just blows me away, it's the new Ferrari 458 Italia and it's pure beauty... just wow!

Head on over to Ferrari.com to place your orders ;-) or just to have a look.

Available in September.
