GS Reporter: Nuge

Advert Break – Harry Brown is coming for you in cinemas today!

Set in modern-day Britain, HARRY BROWN follows one man’s (Sir Michael Caine) journey through a chaotic world where drugs are the currency of the day and guns run the streets. A modest law-abiding citizen, Harry Brown is a retired Marine and a widower who lives alone on a depressed housing estate. His only company is his best friend Leonard (David Bradley). When Leonard is murdered by a gang of thugs, Harry feels compelled to act and is forced to dispense his own brand of justice. As he bids to clean up the run-down estate where he lives, his actions bring him into conflict with the police, led by investigating officer DCI Frampton (Emily Mortimer) and Charlie Creed-Miles.

Sir Michael goes back to his bad ass ‘Get Carter’ roots by the look of the trailer and the clips I’ve seen so far for this. Anyway the film is hitting the flicks today folks if you want to check it out!

Here are a few clips to get you started.

Clash of the Titans Trailer

I have found memories of  going to see the original Clash of the Titans film at cinema as a kid (Yes I even loved the Clockwork Owl). When they announced they were doing a remake I thought ok so long as it keeps the same epic vibe I got from the original film.

I  thought, after watching this first trailer,  that this definitely has that epic vibe to it  and felt like it had taken the look of Gladiator and bought it into the Clash of the Titans universe.

My only two problems?  the tag line and the trailer music. You give me all these epic scenes and then stick on this cheap ass rock sound track (so you couldn’t nick some backing music from the hundreds of fantasy film trailers out there?). Also the ‘Titans will Clash” really? it made it sound like this was a trailer for some WWF rematch.

Despite those missteps (please someone in internet land give me a new mashup with some decent backing music) I really liked the look of the trailer.

Kick Ass – The Trailer

I’m a big fan of the Kick Ass comic by Mark Millar (still got one more issue to read) and if the film lives up to half of the fun I got from watching that trailer then I’m going to be one happy comic geek.

Wallace and Gromit on your iPhone? Cracking Lad!

Digital comics are all the rage at the moment ( at least with me anyway).

I was at the Sony offices in London last week putting the  Digital Comic  Store through it’s paces on the PSP and now we have Titan Publishing launching Wallace and Gromit comics appearing on the iPhone.

Check out the press release for all the info.

ADVERT BREAK – STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS – YODA’S GREATEST QUOTES

When I got sent this article to run featuring Yoda’s greatest quotes the fella in question said “I didn’t know if this would be your sort of thing.”ah the foolish young Padawan I thought.

Out of all the many Star Wars characters Yoda has always stood head and shoulders above the other characters for me (pardon the bad joke) with good old Han Solo coming in a very close second.

So I was more than happy to run this article featuring some of Yoda great quotes.

Gyllenhaal finds the ‘Source’

No sooner had I stuck up the trailer for the Prince of Persia last week and now it seems Jake Gyllenhaal is on the hunt for his next film.

Jake will be stepping into the sci-fi genre if the negotiations for him to  star in the sci-fi thriller “Source Code”  are successful.

According to Variety the film will center on a soldier who wakes up in the body of an unknown commuter and is forced to live and relive a harrowing train bombing until he can determine who is responsible for it.

Now the premise isn’t clear but if the character will be reliving the same day again and again(or is it just the once I’m not sure) until he solves the crime then that reminds me of the TV show ‘Daybreak’ starring Taye Diggs.

Daybreak was cancelled after one season but I thought it had a lot of potential so I hoping I’m right about Source Code  sharing certain similarities.

Angelina Jolie stars in ‘Salt’ – Trailer

done

Angelina Jolie stars in Columbia Pictures’ Salt, a contemporary espionage thriller. Before becoming a CIA officer, Evelyn Salt (Jolie) swore an oath to duty, honor, and country. She will prove loyal to these when a defector accuses her of being a Russian sleeper spy. Salt goes on the run, using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative to elude capture, protect her husband, and stay one step ahead of her colleagues at the CIA.

Ok I thought the trailer looked kick ass and remined me a little of the Fugitive meets Bourne. It’s got a top notch cast and the premise is solid. The only think that had me making the ‘Huh’ face was the name…Salt seriously that’s what yo’re calling the film Slat. It doesn’t really scream action Thriller to me.

The film’s not out until next summer so the name has time to grow on me.

Advert Break – New Web Series, O-Cast‏

“O-Cast is a mockumentary web series created by the twelve Olympian gods of Greek mythology to broadcast their new lives as 20-something New Yorkers. Comedy ensues as they combine forces to convince the mortals of their modern relevance and inspire a new generation of believers. Shot in high-definition and broadcast in short episodes online, O-Cast merges ancient legend with the power of viral video.”

Yep I’m still on my web series obsession at the moment and as I was trawling through my emails I stumbled on the press release of O-Cast. I watched the first two episodes and thought it was pretty enjoyable (Who knew speed dating could be so dangerous).

Worth a look see.
