"Magic Trip" Poster

Vulture has your first look at the "Magic Trip" poster.

In 1964, Ken Kesey, the famed author of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” set off on a legendary, LSD-fuelled cross-country road trip to the New York World’s Fair. He was joined by “The Merry Band of Pranksters,” a renegade group of counterculture truth-seekers, including Neal Cassady, the American icon immortalized in Kerouac’s “On the Road,” and the driver and painter of the psychedelic Magic Bus. Kesey and the Pranksters intended to make a documentary about their trip, shooting footage on 16MM, but the film was never finished and the footage has remained virtually unseen. With MAGIC TRIP, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Dark Side) and co-director Alison Ellwood were given unprecedented access to this raw footage by the Kesey family. They worked with the Film Foundation, HISTORY and the UCLA Film Archives to restore over 100 hours of film and audiotape, and have shaped an invaluable document of this extraordinary piece of American history.

"Rejoice And Shout" Trailer

REJOICE AND SHOUT is the definitive history of GOSPEL music – some of the most emotional and powerful music in the world, and the foundation of the blues, country and rock n’ roll.
 
Packed with evocative photos, rare audio, recordings, stirring film appearances and TV performances, REJOICE AND SHOUT is a jubilant journey through the 200 year musical history of African-American Christianity. Culled from hundreds of hours of music, REJOICE AND SHOUT features interviews and performances from the most celebrated voices in gospel music, including:  Smokey Robinson, Mavis Staples and the Staple Singers, Mahalia Jackson, Clara Ward, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Andrae Crouch, The Blind Boys of Alabama, the Selvey Family, Darrel Petties and many more.

REJOICE AND SHOUT traces the evolution of Gospel through its many musical styles – the spirituals and early hymns, the four-part harmony-based quartets, the integration of blues and swing into Gospel, the emergence of Soul, and the blending of Rap and Hip Hop elements.
 
Gospel music walks in step with the story of African-American culture – slavery, hardscrabble rural existence and plantation work, the exodus to major cities, the Depression, World War II, civil rights and empowerment. REJOICE AND SHOUT connects the history of African-American culture with Gospel as it first impacted popular culture at large.
 
Years in the making, REJOICE AND SHOUT captures so much of what is special about this music and African-American Christianity – the sermonizing, the heartfelt testimonials, getting slain in the spirit, the hard hollering, and of course the inspiring music.

"Page One: Inside The New York Times" Poster

MovieLine has the new poster for "Page One: Inside The New York Times", with fly on the wall view of what it's like at the center of one of the world's biggest newspaper.

Andrew Rossi’s riveting documentary Page One: Inside The New York Times had its World Premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, and was acquired by Magnolia Pictures and Participant Media for theatrical release this June. In the tradition of great fly-on-the-wall documentaries, the film deftly gains unprecedented access to the New York Times newsroom and the inner workings of the Media Desk. With the Internet surpassing print as our main news source and newspapers all over the country going bankrupt, Page One chronicles the transformation of the media industry at its time of greatest turmoil. Writers like Brian Stelter, Tim Arango and the salty but brilliant David Carr track print journalism’s metamorphosis even as their own paper struggles to stay vital and solvent, while their editors and publishers grapple with up-to-the-minute issues like controversial new sources and the implications of an online pay-wall. Meanwhile, rigorous journalism is thriving — Page One gives us an up-close look at the vibrant cross-cubicle debates and collaborations, tenacious jockeying for on-record quotes, and skillful page-one pitching that brings the most venerable newspaper in America to fruition each and every day.

"Project Nim" Trailer

From the Oscar-winning team behind MAN ON WIRE comes the story of Nim, the chimpanzee who in the 1970s became the focus of a landmark experiment which aimed to show that an ape could learn to communicate with language if raised and nurtured like a human child. Following Nim's extraordinary journey through human society, and the enduring impact he makes on the people he meets along the way, the film is an unflinching and unsentimental biography of an animal we tried to make human. What we learn about his true nature - and indeed our own – is comic, revealing and profoundly unsettling.

"The Future" Movie Poster

Vulture has the new poster from the movie that was the talk of Sundance, "The Future".

After four years of being together and with their late thirties looming, Sophie and Jason realize that most of their ambitions have come to naught. That stray cat they've saved from the streets will need a month of veterinary care (and then, untold years of close attention to make sure it doesn't succumb to its internal injuries), and suddenly Sophie realizes that after the cat comes back from the animal hospital, she and Jason will finally have to grow up and get settled. So they make a pact: They'll quit their jobs, unplug the Internet, and squeeze their lifetime dreams into the single month they've got left.

New Conan Poster Debuts

IGN has the privilege of debuting the new "Conan The Barbarian" poster. I'm not sure how this movie is going to play with the audience, but it looks like it could be worth a ticket. Action.

Having thrived and evolved for eight consecutive decades in the public imagination- in prose and graphics, on the big screen and small, in games and properties of all kinds- Conan's exploits in the Hyborian Age now come alive like never before in a colossal 3D action-adventure film. A quest that begins as a personal vendetta for the fierce Cimmerian warrior soon turns into an epic battle against hulking rivals, horrific monsters, and impossible odds, as Conan realizes he is the only hope of saving the great nations of Hyboria from an encroaching reign of supernatural evil.

"Final Destination 5" Poster & Trailer

As long as we keep going to see them, "they" will keep making them. It's the "if you build it they will come" mentality. The last one made $66 million+ on a $40 million budget, so of course there is going to be another one. You can say what you want about these flicks but they provide a fun movie going experience. What more can the general public ask for? Poster above. Trailer below.

"Columbiana" International Poster

Saldana would play a young woman who, after witnessing her parents' murder as a child in Bogota, grows up to be a stone-cold assassin. She works for her uncle as a hitman by day, but her personal time is spent engaging in vigilante murders that she hopes will lead her to her ultimate target: the mobster responsible for her parents' death.

Another "X-Men: First Class" International Poster

X-Men: First Class charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men.

New "The Art Of Getting By" Poster

I believe this flick was actually filmed before "Scream 4", Emma Roberts of course starring in both movies. Emma is kind of at a crossroads in her career right now. She is trying to stay away from the safe roles and breakout of being typecast as the one step away from the "Oh look it's Nancy Drew" auroa she has surrounding her. Poster and synopsis below.

THE ART OF GETTING BY stars Freddie Highmore as George, a lonely and fatalistic teen who's made it all the way to his senior year without ever having done a real day of work, who is befriended by Sally, a beautiful and complicated girl who recognizes in him a kindred spirit.

Check out the movie June 17th 2011. Also starring Michael Angarano, Sam Robards, and with Blair Underwood & Rita Wilson. Written and Directed by Gavin Wiesen. Presented by Fox Searchlight.
