Summer is Over, Lennon, Guitar Hero, Max Payne

Okay, so it really isn't over, but as far as Hollywood cares the Summer Movie Season ends this weekend... which means it is time to recap and for me to provide my Top 5 Movies of the Summer, that if you haven't seen yet, really should... and we look at the beginning of the summer for my predictions of what the top five of the summer actually turned out to be (in terms of gross).

But first I'll go ahead and fill in with the notable movie news from the past couple of days.

Ask Bond a Question

Posted 08-28-2008 at 01:55 PM by Velhym
Kind of a slow news day today. I'll probably lump some of today's stuff in a post tomorrow, assuming tomorrow looks any better...

But this I wanted to share right away. It appears Daniel Craig is sorry he missed Comic Con this year and has specifically set up meet and greet Q&A sessions with a select few of the major industry/fan news sites... and he wants them to be asking questions directly from the fans!

The Q&A will be with Daniel Craig (Bond) and Marc Forster...

Nolan Done, Tintin, Shatner, & Promised Bond Stuff

Ever since Comic Con, buzz has been flying about like crazy over the new flick The Watchmen (trailer link) and I'd say it's well deserved buzz. The movie looks interesting, to say the least, and it'll be the first "Hard R" superhero movie we've gotten.

With that said... Watchmen is in a bit of legal trouble. I first wrote about this on a forum a few weeks back but its still pretty hot news. The issue here is fairly complex, but can be described quite simply... Warner Bros...

Comic Con (& I'm Going to BlizzCon)

Posted 08-26-2008 at 03:40 PM by Velhym
So back at the end of July I hit up Comic Con like I do every year. Was awesome, fun, amazing, etc, etc. Everything I expect Comic Con to be. Just putting this here as an excuse to also say my 2nd favorite convention is coming up and I'm going to that as well... BlizzCon.

Not much more to say than that. Probably the most interesting thing I've got going for me right now since I've been so busy with work. :P

Back From the Dead, Vin Diesel Day, Burnt Beef

And what have we missed? Sadly not too much. With the looming threat of actors taking to the picket line there really hasn't been as many projects taking off as there could be.

But for what we did miss, it was pretty significant.

Obviously there "The Dark Knight". It was impressive, bold, and amazing, but not without its own issues. Performances were both epic and mundane at the same time, notably from different people. You had the well deserving of the hype...
