Posted: 25 Jan 2013 01:43 AM PST Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 YOUNG inventor Flint Lockwood gains recognition for his unusual ideas from The Live Corp Company, headed by Chester V, who is famous for helping an orang utan evolve into a more sophisticated being (it wears lipstick). But not all is well back home when Flint learns that his infamous invention, which turned water into food in the first movie, is still operating and is now churning out food-animal hybrids – "foodimals". And now he has to save the world again. Directed by Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn, the sequel features the voices of Bill Hader (Flint Lockwood), Anna Faris (Sam Sparks), James Caan (Tim Lockwood), Will Forte (Chester V), Kristen Schaal (Barb), Terry Crews (Earl), Andy Samberg (Brent), Neil Patrick Harris (Steve) and Benjamin Bratt (Manny). It is set for release on Oct 3 in Malaysia. Kick-Ass 2 ONE look at this picture and you might mistake this one for a Watchmen sequel, especially the way Jim Carrey (left) looks as Stars and Stripes. Resuming their normal teenage personae, Mindy/Hit Girl (ChloĆ« Grace Moretz) and Dave/Kick-Ass (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) try to tackle some normal challenges instead. Dave, for example, is about to graduate and has no idea what to do while Mindy is in forced retirement. Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, an outfit of do-gooders inspired by Kick-Ass and run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes. Kick-Ass 2 co-stars Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Morris Chestnut, John Leguizamo and Donald Faison. Look for it in cinemas around June or July. |

J.J. Abrams to direct new 'Star Wars' film: report Posted: 24 Jan 2013 06:35 PM PST LOS ANGELES: Sci-fi and action filmmaker J.J. Abrams has been tapped to direct a seventh "Star Wars" movie expected to be released by Disney in 2015, a Hollywood trade publication reported Thursday. After purchasing "Star Wars" creator George Lucas's Lucasfilm for $4 billion in October, Disney announced it was planning a new trilogy in the wildly popular sci-fi saga, which has raked in an estimated $4.4 billion since 1977. Variety magazine said Disney is close to finalizing the deal with the 46-year-old Abrams, the co-creator of the popular television series "Lost," who is currently finishing work on "Star Trek Into Darkness." Abrams, who also writes and produces, directed "Mission: Impossible III" (2006), "Star Trek" (2009) and "Super 8" (2011). Lucas - who created the saga and directed four of the six films to date - will serve as a creative consultant for the three new films, which are expected to come out every two to three years. Lucas's original "Star Wars" movie in 1977, which marked the birth of a new era of blockbuster cinema, launched the career of a young Harrison Ford. It was soon followed by the equally popular "The Empire Strikes Back" (1980) and "Return of the Jedi" (1983). In the late 1990s, Lucas drew mixed reviews when he resurrected the blockbuster series with a prequel trilogy: "The Phantom Menace" (1999), "The Attack of the Clones" (2002) and "The Revenge of the Sith" (2005). The newer trilogy featured Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen.-AFP |
