the new X-Men movie :P
that MTV 10 year anniversary special of 'Moulin Rouge!'... did anyone catch it!?!
"W.E." Want to see how Madonna does in the director's chair!
THE TREE OF LIFE at Cannes in just over a week!!!!!!!
Super 8, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II, Green Lanter, Tree Of Life, X-Men: First Class, Thor, Captain American and if Smallville has Clark put on the Superman suit for more than five seconds during the series finale next week! I think that maybe a little too fanboy-ish for this site but I had to get it out, lol.
The Tree of Life, Melancholia and Another Earth most of all.
:)
Weekend! Scream 4! The Tree of Life!
Moonrise Kingdom, the last Harry Potter, We Need to Talk About Kevin & Immortals.
yes W.E. indeed... I suspect she will be a great director but even Barbra Streisand was snubbed a directing nomination so I won't hold my breath for Madonna :-(
We Need to Talk About Kevin.
I just finished the book and it was harrowing and incredible. Can't wait to see what Tilda does it!
I second all of these thus far except for Brady's cuz he's just rubbing it in. I'm not at Cannes. (sniffle)
does with it*, sorry. :)
Crazy Stupid Love
Julianne Moore! Emma Stone! Ryan Gosling!
I'm going to be the one that everyone laughs at. I can't wait to see Breaking Dawn.
Hersher, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part II, Carnage, The Help, 30 Seconds Or Less, Midnight In Paris and One Day
A Dangerous Method.
The last Harry Potter film...
..and Tom Hooper's film adaptation of Les Miserables musical.
"Bridesmaids", especially after yesterday's write-up by (the usually awful) Jeff Wells.
Jake Gyllenhaal naked.
I don't think I played this right. : /
Friends with Benefits
OOOh yeah...Tom Hooper's Les Miz...good one!
I'm gonna say Super 8...and Black Swan on blu-ray.
BTW...this has nothing to do with anything...but I have to shout it out...Rabbit Hole (with Nicky K.) was amaze! The nomination...completely deserved. And where was a nom for Dianne and Miles Teller?
A good film! Hate the post-Oscars wasteland of crap. Going to watch Jane Eyre this weekend, yay!
I can’t wait to see Meryl Streep vs Glenn Close vs Keira Knightley vs Michelle Williams vs Tilda Swinton at the Oscar next year.
Melissa Leo on a John Waters film
I can't wait to see if Cars 2 sucks or not. Anything by Pixar or with Marion Cotillard or Kate Winslet also. And Rabbit Hole again!
Laura Linney win an Oscar! And Kate Winslet win an Emmy.
I can't wait to see The Invention of Hugo Cabret
Ryan Gosling strutting around like the sexpot he is in 'Crazy Stupid Love'
CARNAGE
I can't wait to see The Second Holy Coming of Christ...aka, The Tree of Life.
There are so many... I'd go for EVERY film in your predictions, but I'll trim it down a little: The Help, Albert Nobbs, The Iron Lady, Michelle Williams' Marilyn, anything with Ryan Gosling in it and, well, anything starring Jessica Chastain. I want to find out what all the fuss is about.
Judge me, but Pirates 4. I loved the first 2, and Depp and Rush are always a treat.
I can't wait to see...Julianne Moore take the Golden Globe, SAG, and Emmy for Game Change.
Bridemaids. A friend got two passes to a free screening tomorrow!
Moulin Rouge anniversary
http://www.mtv.com/videos/movies/647967/moulin-rouge-at-10-a-spectacular-spectacular-mtv-news-event.jhtml#id=1663048
It was good but a bit of a disappointment. Nicole couldn't make it and Ewan was there in a pre-taped interview for 5 minutes. Baz was there for the hour and John Leguizamo was there for a hot minute.
My Week With Marilyn
A Dangerous Method
Tom Hooper's Les Miserables? Bleep. If that's who they've got for it...read the book. As for me? Crazy Stupid Love, Friends with Benefits, Thor and Tree of Life are the ones that have got me most interested. (The Descendents? If it gets good reviews. Alexander Payne hasn't directed a movie in seven years. I don't want to risk seeing a rusty director.) Emma Stone: Based on the look of The Help's trailer, I really don't know if it'll turn out well and it's seems like a debut dramedy. (There are some GREAT straight drama debuts, straight comedy debuts and horror/thriller debuts, but I haven't heard of great debuts in the epic (David Lean started off as a director of intimate dramas) or genre fusion (Evil Dead 2 (One of the best sequels of the 80s and, certainly, the most improved) and Rushmore are second films) categories.) I'd place more faith in a few Crazy Stupid Love campaigns (Emma Stone, Gosling, Carell and, maybe, Moore) getting some heat, especially if The Descendents and I Bought a Zoo turn out to be duds. (After the trailer showed quite a bit of wit, I'd place it as maybe the best "studio" com since, at the very least, School of Rock, if not Tootsie.) Now for critiques: Based on the trailer, the chemistry bereft production Larry Crowne is out, The Skin that I Inhabit is foreign, This Must be the Place and The Rum Diary need orgasmically strong reviews based on their concepts, Coriolanus is a derivative of The Hurt Locker and Baz's Romeo and Juliet, Tom Hardy and Gary Oldman have the same problem (people would be more itching for a supporting nom at this point), The Conspirator is an early release with bad reviews, J. Edgar is a Clint and, slowly, surely, the Academy may be getting over Clint. Butterfield and Irvine probably won't receive a nom in either category. They often don't pull the category switch with young males. Young males just get brushed off. The Beaver: It sounds like Gibson's letting loose all his hammiest impulses in the "Beaver" three quarters of the role. If John C. Riley's not the best role in the show, he likely won't get #1s. Pitt could, quite likely, be perceived as a support in Moneyball with PSH getting viewed as the lead (it is a Bennett Miller, after all). Jason Reitman (Young Adult) has to screw up at some point. On the Road is an indie movie about the proto-hippies. Fassbender is a male prostitute in Shame. And they've never gone for those as leads before. I'd say:
Michael Fassbender, A Dangerous Method
Ryan Gosling, The Ides of March
Woody Harrelson, Rampart
Steve Carrell, Crazy Stupid Love (it's been 13 years since they've nominated a pure comic performance and it'll draw attention more than The Beaver (they never go for crazy in comedy) or Larry Crowne (way too light)
One of these, depending on the breaks:
Leo, Jedgar
Clooney, Descendants
Penn, This Must Be the Place
Depp, The Rum Diary (if this nom happens, he's won.)
A Dangerous Method, Melancholia, X-Men First Class, The Tree of Life, We Need To Talk About Kevin, Sleeping Beauty, Harry Potter, J Edgar, Oslo 31 August, Jane Eyre, La piel que habito
And Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy of course!
I am desperately waiting for Jane Eyre, it doesn't open in Oslo until late June. At least I'll get my Fassbender-fix with X-Men First Class in early June.
Manuel: Great to see someone mention Oslo 31 August, I am really excited about that one. It opens in Oslo on the 31st of August :)
The Impossible with Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor!
The Tree of Life, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, The Rum Diary, A Dangerous Method, Super 8, We Need to Talk About Kevin, The Descendants, and most of all This Must Be the Place.
Higher Ground
Red State, X-Men First Class
Ron and Hermione kiss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been waiting for this kiss since I read the first HP book around the time of the last supper, two thousand years ago!
And A Dangerous Method, Melancholia, Carnage!
I know their kiss in the movie will be diferent from their kiss in the book but it will still be worthy.
Pirates 4.
Not entirely confident that it will be as fun as the first but can't wait to find out.
ONE DAY ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess are so charming ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Martha Marcy May Marlene. Looks amazing, and Elizabeth Olsen is getting a Best Actress nomination. Trust.
We Need to Talk about Kevin (I'm loving the book right about now), The Tree of Life, Melancholia, Contagion and The Dark Knight Rises (I know, still a long way for this one.)
The Iron Lady.
