New Star Trek Trailer is Here

The new trailer for Star Trek is out and it's intense. Some fans are furious at the changes to canon, such as Kirk being a daredevil in his youth whereas in the original series Kirk said he was "positively grim" when he was at the Academy: he was a real bookworm. Uhura takes off her shirt. Spock tries to kill Kirk, etc etc. We have seen every episode of every Star Trek show made and have seen all the movies. We say: wait and see. We'll not pass judgment until we see the finished product. That hits theaters in May, 2009. Here's the trailer:

Screaming Teens Stoke Twilight Mania

The Twilight madness continues. Every teen in the Westwood area of Los Angeles was hounding her parents for tickets to the Twilight premiere. They eventually allowed 2,000 screaming teens to see the flick. No, really. They were actually screaming.
Last night, the way to show you were a big shot in Hollywood was to get tickets for your daughter and all her friends to the "Twilight" premiere. The preem had what one exec called "the nag factor": many, many teenage girls telling their parents they had to attend or they would die. To accommodate demand, Summit Entertainment filled both the Village and Bruin theaters with 2,000 attendees. "It reminds me of the 'Batman' premiere in 1989," said Summit co-chair Rob Friedman, who was an exec at Warners at the time. "I haven't felt this energy in Westwood since then."
There has been a lot of screaming associated with Twilight, most of it directed at the film's star Robert Pattinson. Pattinson himself seems a bit bemused by all the attention, but has gamely been giving lots of interviews and showing up at premieres with a phalanx of bodyguards. After all, there's nothing more frightening that a horde of hormonal pre-teens screaming your name.

Terminator Salvation Concept Artwork

Terminator Salvation Concept Art


Some scary new Terminator forms in the concept artwork above that is for the upcoming Terminator Salvation movie. The film is out in May, 2009 and stars Dark Knight star Christian Bale. One of the Terminator forms is a motorcycle with red eyes. NextAutos.com has more on the Moto-Terminator motorcycle.
Production director Martin Laing was responsible for envisioning some of the near-future killing devices, and has created (among a lot of other scary looking metal) this Moto-Terminator motorcycle. The bike seems to be the chilling Terminator character we know and love in motorcycle form (note the signature red "eyes"), replete with plenty of new mean toys attached.
We are enjoying the Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles tv series so much that it is hard to focus on a film that will have different actors but it looks like they are going all out on the varieties of forms the Terminator machines will take. You can see more images here on Quiet Earth.

Pulitzer Prize Winning Playwright May Scribe Spidey 4

Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Lindsay-Abaire is in negotiations to be the screenwriter to write Spider-Man 4. Tobey Maguire will star and Sam Raimi will direct.
Lindsay-Abaire, who won a Pulitzer in 2007 for his drama "Rabbit Hole," is in final negotiations to write "Spider-Man 4" for Columbia. Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire are back as director and star, respectively, as are series producers Laura Ziskin and Avi Arad. Kirsten Dunst also is expected to return for the latest movie featuring the Marvel Comics character. Plot details are under lock and key.

Columbia always has gone off the beaten path during the development process when hiring writers for the "Spider-Man" movies. Alvin Sargent, a veteran scribe best known for 1973's "Paper Moon" and 1980's "Ordinary People," served as a writer on the second and third films. Michael Chabon, another Pulitzer winner, also worked on "Spider-Man 2."

*****

Lindsay-Abaire has said in interviews that his plays tend to be "peopled with outsiders in search of clarity," which would put his work on sympathetic terms with Peter Parker, who in his classic incarnation is the perpetual outsider. The choice of scribe also signals that that filmmakers are intent to focus on character, something that critics said got lost in the third installment.
Well, he certainly knows how to do great dialog. We'll see how he is at writing a great action scene.

Frank Miller Talks Spirit Movie

Frank Miller talked to Sci Fi Wire about the feel of the new Spirit movie, which is based on the Will Eisner comic about a young cop who becomes the hero called the Spirit.
"It's romantic, but as in Sin City, you don't know what date it is," Miller said in an interview on the red carpet for Spike TV's third annual Scream Awards on Oct. 18 in Hollywood. "It's a very urban/Zorro story. I tried to make it as timeless as possible, so you will see cell phones and vintage cars and not really know where you are."

Miller added: "It's my solo directorial debut, so of course that's exciting." Miller shared a director's credit with Robert Rodriguez on Sin City in 2005, which was based on Miller's own graphic novel.

"I learned everything I know about directing from Robert Rodriguez. Everything," Miller said. "Mainly, I learned never to waste anyone's time. When the cameras are ready to roll, then the actors are ready to go [and so on]. No one gets tired, everyone steps lively, and I think it makes for a better movie."
The Spirit opens in wide release on December 25, 2008.

M. Night Shyamalan May Pen Unbreakable Sequel

M. Night Shyamalan says he is considering writing a sequel to Unbreakable, the film which really was a precursor to Heroes. He explained why he took so long to write it.
M. Night Shyamalan said he is considering working on a sequel to his hit Unbreakable, a superhero tale about a man (Bruce Willis) who finds that he is impervious to harm and is called to become a savior.

"I'm a strange creature," the writer/director said in a conference call with reporters last week. "When Unbreakable came out, I was like, 'God, man, I'm so excited.' I thought [it] was like comic books. No one has really done comic books like this: reality-based comic books. I really think this is a metaphor for things that people can go crazy over."

Though the film was eventually a hit, the initial reaction was mixed. "When the reaction was mixed, kind of a disappointment, I was pettily hurt, and I was like, 'God, I took so many incredible risks' and things like that," Shyamalan said.

Because of that, Shyamalan's excitement about a sequel to the movie was muted. "I felt really hurt, and I couldn't bring myself to write," he said. "It's literally like a relationship I have with the audience. ... And then, over the years, as it just grew and grew and grew, and people were like, 'You know, I really like that. That's actually my favorite movie, and I watch that all the time,' and on and on. I'll be on the street, and some kid will run across traffic with it in his backpack--he just is carrying it in his backpack--and he'll be running [saying], 'I can't believe it's you!' Will you sign my Unbreakable DVD?' And quoting the thing and all that stuff."
We just loved Unbreakable. He needs to start writing, right away. And hopefully Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson will be up for return appearances.

Academics See HAL, Replicants and Space Viruses in Mankind's Future

2001 A Space Odyssey KubrickBritish academics have rated Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey as the science fiction film that most realistically portrays man's future reports Wales News.
The pioneering 1968 film, an adaptation of a screenplay by Arthur C Clarke, deals with questions about the evolution of mankind, and the nature of artificial intelligence - epitomised by the supercomputer HAL 9000.

The group of scientists, including representatives from Cardiff University and the University of Glamorgan, alongside contemporaries from Oxford and King's College London, judged that the cult sci-fi film featured the most plausible view of scientific progress.

Artificially intelligent super computers with the power to conspire against people, such as HAL, were considered the science fiction imagining most likely to become a reality.

Mark Brake, professor of Science Communication at the University of Glamorgan, said: "2001 raised science fiction cinema to a new level. The unfolding four-million-year filmic story brilliantly portrays Arthur C Clarke's disturbing man-machine encounter with HAL a computer turned murderer.

"This unsettling scenario is not something we would ever want to imagine happening in reality, but it is not beyond the realms of possibility that artificial intelligence could turn on its creators."
The article says Ridley Scott's Blade Runner film starring Harrison Ford was ranked second in the study. Following that was the 1971 version of Michael Crichton's The Andromeda Strain. A remake of this film was just released as a mini-series on A&E - it will also be available on DVD on June 3rd.

I Want To Believe Trailer

Here is a new trailer for the upcoming X-files movie I Want To Believe. The film will be out July 25, 2008. You can find the trailer and film details on the website at xfiles.com. Blogs like Xfilesnews.com and xfilesultimate.com are tracking the film. There is a lot of discussion and possible spoilers on the Internets. X-Files 2 screenwriter Frank Spotnitz warns fans not to believe any speculation about the film they read online.
And likewise, according to fellow "X-Files 2" screenwriter Frank Spotnitz, audiences should beware of idle speculation online. "They shouldn't believe anything because they're going to feel burned or disappointed inevitably that day," he argued. "So that's really been our stance all along because there's so much misinformation on the Internet. And people saying they have credible sources or call-sheets that are of dubious authenticity. The best thing is to view everything skeptically and wait for the movie."

Noah Wylie is the Librarian

Noah Wiley The LibrarianNoah Wylie will return to his duties as the globetrotting, adventure-seeking Librarian, in the third movie for TNT. The first two movies were monster hits for TNT, so the entire cast is returning, including Bob Newhart and Jane Curtin. This time the Librarian heads to New Orleans in search of a mysterious evil chalice.
Jonathan Frakes (Star Trek: The Next Generation), who directed the second Librarian installment, The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines, will once again take the helm. Electric Entertainment's Dean Devlin, Kearie Peak and Marc Roskin are executive-producing. Wyle and Electric's Phil Goldfarb are producing, with the company's Rachel Olschan co-producing. The project began shooting in New Orleans this week.

The Librarian: The Curse Of The Judas Chalice opens with a restless Flynn attempting to assimilate back into his career as a librarian at the New York Metropolitan Library after many adventures abroad. Led to New Orleans by strange dreams, he finds himself in the midst of uncovering a conspiracy that involves the notorious vampire Prince Vlad Dracul. Once again, Flynn must overcome his fears and protect one of the world's most sacred artifacts, the Judas Chalice, or face the consequences of it falling into the wrong hands.

Newhart returns as Judson, who once having been a librarian, now serves as head of the library. Curtin comes back as Charlene, the extremely serious-minded, no-nonsense personnel director for the library.

Katic plays Simone Renoir, a gorgeous young New Orleans jazz-club singer, who uses her hypnotic performances to charm an off-guard Flynn. Turned into a vampire by the infamous Vlad Dracul 400 years ago, Simone has been on a lifelong hunt to find the man who condemned her soul to walk the night forever. She teams up with Flynn to outwit those hoping to find the chalice and use it for their evil agenda.

Davison plays Professor Lazlo, an elderly, crippled man who is a brilliant professor at the University of Bucharest. Seemingly harmless, he is taken hostage by the villainous Kubichek, who wants Lazlo to lead him to the Judas Chalice.
It's a fun, family-friendly franchise.

10,000 B.C.: A Prehistoric Adventure

The premiere of the film 10,000 BC in Germany featured life-sized figures of Woolly Mammoths. The movie is directed by Roland Emmerich, who also diected Indepence Day, Stargate and The Day After Tomorrow. In the video clip below, Emmerich says the period is a fascinating time in history because we know so little about it. The film stars Steven Straight as a mammoth hunter named D'Leh. Some of the many dangers include sabertooth tigers, ground sloths and angry warlords.

10,000 B.C. bears little resemblance to One Million Years B.C. - the film that made Raquel Welch's figure famous - or other caveman movies. There were also films and tv shows called Korg: 70,000 B.C. and 50,000 B.C. (Before Clothing). Newsday says 10,000 B.C. marks a new era of caveman flicks. You can find out more about the film on IMDB, Wikipedia and on the official website.

20 Things You Didn't Know About Science Fiction

Discover Magazine lists 20 Things You Didn't Know About Science Fiction. Here's a snippet:
1 Arguably the inspiration for much science fiction traces back to classical mythology. Think of it-Earthlings abducted by beings from the sky, humans morphing into strange creatures, and events that defy the laws of nature.

2 Birth of the (un)cool: In 1926 writer Hugo Gernsback founded Amazing Stories, the first true science-fiction magazine.

3 Gernsback loved greenbacks. He tried to trademark the term science fiction, and he paid writers so little that H. P. Lovecraft later nicknamed him "Hugo the Rat."

4 Rat's revenge: The most famous sci-fi writing award is called the Hugo.

5 Writers for the early pulp magazines would often write under multiple pseudonyms so they could have more than one article per issue. Ray Bradbury-taking this practice to another level-used six different pen names.

6 Serious science-fiction heads say sci-fi carries schlocky, B-movie connotations. Many prefer the abbreviation SF.

7 Prominent physicists and space travel pioneers have (often secretly) contributed to SF lit. German rocket genius Wernher Von Braun wrote space fiction and was an adviser to sci-fi movies such as Conquest of Space.
Actually, book editors will tell you that the term "SF" means "Speculative Fiction" which denotes a more serious or even literary science fiction. Cyberpunk is a subgenre of SF, for example. Sci Fi is used to denote space opera, like Star Trek or Star Wars. But it's true that some fans use the term "Sci Fi" to refer to anything in the genre and others use it to refer to B movies. When in doubt, say "SF" so as not to offend an author you might meet at a convention. Hope that clears things up.

J.J. Abrams and the Mystery Box

Mystery BoxJ.J. Abrams, the creator of Alias, Lost, and the upcoming Cloverfield, gave a fascinating presentation (via Boing Boing) at TED where he explains his love of the unseen mystery. Abrams says his interest and magic and mystery started with his granfather who encouraged him to make stuff. Abrams also displayed a Mystery Box which remains unopened to this day. He bought the box from Lou Tannen's Magic store in New York decades ago. To Abrams the box represents infinite possibility, hope and potential. He also compares scripts and stories to mystery boxes. Here's his presentation at TED.

Paramount Announces 2008 SF Movies

Paramount announced its 2008 slate of sf films.
The year begins on Jan. 18 with Cloverfield, the mysterious monster movie from producer J.J. Abrams. On Feb. 15, The Spiderwick Chronicles debuts, a family fantasy based on the children's books.

The horror film The Ruins, based on the book, opens April 11. Jon Favreau's hotly anticipated Iron Man, the hit of last year's Comic-Con, unspools on May 2. May 22 brings the long-awaited Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, reuniting director Steven Spielberg and star Harrison Ford. The animated spoof Kung Fu Panda premieres on June 6. Sept. 26 brings the family fantasy Nowhereland, and the supernatural comedy Ghost Town, starring Ricky Gervais, awaits a fall release date.

The animated sequel film Madagascar: The Crate Escape opens on Nov. 7. Thanksgiving brings the classic fantasy film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (Nov. 26), and Christmas Day marks the premiere of Abrams' new Star Trek.
The writers' strike is still going strong, which means no scripts can be revised until the strike is over and no new films can move forward. That means the SF slate for 2009 is going to be absolutely dismal unless the studios come to their senses and cut a fair deal for the writers.

Sarah Michelle Gellar Talks Southland Tales

Photo of Sarah Michelle Gellar on the cover of MaximSarah Michelle Gellar talks about her role as an entrepreneurial stripper Krysta Now in the upcoming post-apocalyptic film, Southland Tales.
In the movie, Krysta Now finds an amnesiac action-movie star, Boxer Santaros (Dwayne Johnson), in the desert, and the couple become key characters in the epic drama-comedy, set on the eve of an unspecified apocalypse.

*****

Gellar, best known as TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer, jumped at the chance of playing the character. "Just because it was something so different, and she was becoming sort of this amazing character that no one had seen," Gellar said. "And I just thought, 'How exciting to do something just so the antithesis of what would generally be expected of me.' And I think that's what I hope for as a career. I never want to be the girl that you expect to see in something. I want to be 'Whoa, I didn't expect that.' Or 'I didn't see that happening.'"

Krysta Now is inadvertently funny, but Gellar didn't play it that way. "Dwayne and I talked about it," Gellar said. "And although at its heart I do believe this movie is a dark comedy, I think what's funny is when the characters are not self-aware. And I think what makes Krysta funny is that she doesn't realize she's funny. If it becomes too nod-nod, wink-wink, I think the audience is like, 'Oh, I get it.' But I think the humor comes from the fact that she says the most ridiculous things, which she truly believes in. And to me, that's what's funny." Southland Tales opens Nov. 14.
Sarah Michelle is on the cover of Maxim; the editors selected her as their Woman of the Year. She's promoting the film and has obviously carried a bit of her character into the covershoot, which features the former vampire slayer in pants, suspenders, high heels and fingerless gloves. It's all very 80s, but somehow it's working for us. In a big way. You can see all of Sarah Michelle's semi-racy pics for the issue here.

Mad Max Rides Again

Moviehole reports the film Mad Max 4: Fury Road is back on track. But don't panic, Mel Gibson won't be reprising his role. Instead a younger actor will take center stage.
It's production quarters re-opened at Fox Studios in Sydney this week. One of Moviehole's longest - not as in length (well not that we know of) but in terms of how good he has been to us over the years (setting up set visits.. basically giving us access to things we normally couldn't have gotten) – friends called today from the lot to let us know that Fury Road has finally got a greenlight, with pre-production commencing immediately.

*****

Our colleague has discovered that "Kennedy Miller is dancing with VFX and animation houses for both Mad Max 4 and Happy Feet 2. As far as I know the plan is to do all the animation for Happy Feet 2 in Australia, but not necessarily at Animal Logic (who did the first one). I'd guess that Mad Max 4 will be shot in Namibia as per the original plans (blown out by the Iraq invasion). In terms of release time - it took 4 years to make the original Happy Feet."
So Mad Max rides again, eh? Once upon a time we would have been thrilled about this news. But somehow Mel has become less appealing an an actor over time. His off-screen antics have bled over into his professional life, we suppose. And after Waterworld, we got kind of weary of the whole post-apocalyptic genre. Unless it had vampires in it, of course. Or mutants. Mutants are always good.

The Great Jawa Village Conspiracy Theory

Screen shot of Jawas in Star Wars The Great Jawa Village Conspiracy Theory is gaining steam. Hal Wamsley claims he played the Chief jawa in Star Wars: A New Hope movie and saw an entire jawa village set that was created in the California desert. He worked on the Death Valley set of the film with the second photography unit, but was never formally credited on the film, although he is listed in the IMDB database. And LucasFilm won't say he wasn't in the film. But they do deny that there was ever a Jawa village set built in the California desert.
According to Wamsley, both he and the late Jack Purvis (who is in the movie's actual credits) played the Chief Jawa. Wamsley told me, in a 1999 interview, that many of Purvis's scenes, which were filmed in Tunisia, had to be reshot in Death Valley. Thus, the only scene in Star Wars in which Purvis appears is the droid sale at the Lars homestead. Wamsley took credit for spying on R2-D2 and zapping him, carrying the droid to the sandcrawler, putting a restraining bolt on him (the spring 1978 issue of Cinefantastique has a picture of this being shot at Industrial Light & Magic, not Death Valley (CFQ volume 6 no. 4/vol. 7 no. 1, page 90)), and directing the other jawas up the vehicle's stairs.

Wamsley said he stumbled onto the role at the age of 15, when he was still 4'8.' (After a growth spurt at age 17, he reached his current height of 5'2'. See: echostation.com) His mother was an Avon Lady, and one of her clients was a casting director who needed people of Hal's height for "a little science fiction B movie." This project, for which Wamsley never read a script or knew the name, would be shooting second-unit photography near Artist's Palette in Death Valley, California. Hal recalled being ecstatic, and "about three weeks later, [t]hey came and picked me up, and we went down there to Death Valley. We were out there for five days, and then came home for the weekend, and then went out for another five."

"An almost a two-story mock-up" of the jawa sandcrawler figures in many of Wamsley's memories. He said that the sandcrawler was featured in the background of a jawa swap meet (which, according to him, was left out of the final film, and to his disappointment, not restored in the Special Edition). He described tents made of animal hide (probably those of banthas), polygamous jawas, child jawas, and ratlike creatures being roasted over fires.

Most of the components in Wamsley's story have been denied by Lucasfilm's Steven Sansweet (see Cinefantastique August 2002 (vol. 34 no. 5, page 5)). Regarding the sandcrawler set being rebuilt in Death Valley, "that is not true," Sansweet said. "I can tell you that the jawa part of the shoot in Death Valley was a quick one. No sets were built—certainly no part of the sandcrawler set was rebuilt." As for a jawa village, "there was no jawa village scene shot in Death Valley."
It's all very mysterious. We don't know quite what to think.
