    New 'Toy Story 3' Photo

    The scribes over at Latino Review have posted a new "Toy Story 3" photo courtesy of Empire Online for all of us to enjoy, along with an interesting little story involving Mrs. Potato Head and her abusive husband, Mr. Potato Head. It looks like Disney/Pixar has amped up the graphics from the high quality photos we've been treated with. How can you not be looking forward to another big screen romp with the likes of Woody and Buzz.

    New 'Iron Man 2' Photo & Olivia Munn Says Things

    Paramount Pictures released a new photo from "Iron Man 2" that features Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr., doing things that are technologically advanced.

    Carson Daily, that lucky dog, had the opportunity to interview Olivia Munn about her upcoming role in "Iron Man 2". Munn of G4's "Attack of the Show" and Playboy fame discusses what lead to her being cast and improvising with Robert Downey Jr.

    “Jon Favreau was familiar with a lot of my work that I had done [and] the skits that I’ve put out, and [he] just thought that I can keep up with improv and [he] literally offered me the role.”

    There’s a bunch of improv, over and over. It’s one of those things where you’re on set and you want other people to laugh and the crew to laugh. You get the extras and the contractors who’ve been there all day. If they’re laughing that’s a good feeling. One day I was doing a lot [of improvising] and [I kept] coming up with other stuff and at one point Robert just goes ‘Can we just stop for a second? Can we give Olivia a round of applause? Because she is rocking it right now.’ That’s beyond my dream ever and everyone just [clapped]. Afterwards, people were up coming up [and saying] ‘that was really great!’ I was so happy.”

    Michael Myers Says "Die!"

    When I'm writing articles, I'm not one for injecting personal experiences into the body of my work, but I have to venture in that realm with this one. I apologize wholeheartedly in advance.

    When Rob Zombie's Halloween dropped, I was cautious. I heard that he was taking over the franchise and I didn't love the idea. I was and in some respects, obsessed with his music but I haven't loved his movies. Not to say they have been terrible, "The Devil's Rejects" and "House of 1000 Corpses" certainly have their merit, but to me he was still the singer I knew and loved. It's like when a movie star comes out with an album, there will always be a Jamie Fox, but for every Jamie Fox there are the vocal stylings of Eddie Murphy. When the first trailer hit for Zombie's Halloween, I have to say I was impressed, from the looks of it Zombie actually did get it. The scenes were familiar being a remake of the original but seemed to have some originality that Zombie infused to make it his own.
     Of course my significant other and I ventured to the theater on opening night to see it, she being a huge fan of Carpenter's Halloween films. We were in the theater for 20 minutes when she asked to leave, not because she was scared, but because she was disgusted. "This isn't Halloween", she said, and she was right. We left and made our way into another film, my confused friends still sitting in their roomy seats. Of course I had to see the rest of the movie, so I eventually got my hands on it. The film got better, but only when Zombie finally made his way to the rehash of what Carpenter already created. You honestly don't need to know where Michael Myers evil came from, that is what makes him so scary. There is almost no reason for it. He is sinister, he is random, and he is cold blooded. I understand what Zombie was going for, and I applaud him for it, but to me it just didn't work.

    Despite my experience with the first one, I went to see the H2. Let me say that seeing H2 made me fall in love with Zombie's original. The 2nd Halloween with Zombie's complete control over the material completely missed the mark. When every other death ends with apparition of Michael's mother and his childhood self applauding said death or egging on another one, it becomes comical. I have to say Zombie nailed the ambience of a Halloween film, just like he did in the firt one. The feel of the film is just forboding. Michaeal is a killing machine and it works even though it vears a little to the left of how Michael usually operates based on our past experience. What is this all leading to? An alternate ending was released for Zombie's H2 where you actually get to witness Michael Myers talking. Yes. I'm not making this up. Up next for Rob Zombie, a remake of "The Blob". I'm not making that up either.

    Three Clash Of The Titans Posters

     

    Yahoo Movies have released three new posters from "Clash of the Titans".  You might be having a case of Deja Vu if you had the pleasure of seeing some of these posters previously when they were leaked. Now luckily they are official and I got to tell you, the one featuring Sam Worthington's character Perseus holding tightly on to Medusa's severed head gives me chills. I think we have a winner. If that doesn't do it for you then how about Perseus riding on a flying Pegasus with his sword drawn?
