Jamie Campbell Bower and Robert Pattinson apparently have two different visions for the Breaking Dawn adaptation.
In a recent interview, New Moon‘s Bower said would love to see his Sweeney Todd boss, Tim Burton, behind the camera for the fourth installment. “I think he’d just change it up. I think he’d screw around with it quite a lot, and aesthetically, I think it’d be incredibly different,” Jamie said. But which direction would Pattinson like to see the film go?

New Moon Vamp Wants Tim Burton to Direct Breaking Dawn
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Action, Adaptation, Drama, Romance, Science Fiction, Sequels, Thrillers, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Filmmaking, Upcoming Releases
Can a director for the fourth installment of the Twilight franchise, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, possibly get any darker than the director for the third film, David Slade? New Moon actor Jamie Campbell Bower thinks so!
The actor, who plays the vampire Caius in the second film, touts The Nightmare Before Christmas director Tim Burton: “I think he’d just change it up. I think he’d screw around with it quite a lot, and aesthetically, I think it’d be incredibly different. I don’t know if the fans would like it, but I’d sure like it.”
Wait a sec—haven’t I seen him before?

Guy Ritchie Focused on Films

Now that he’s single, Guy Ritchie wants to be a “prolific mother-f***er.”
The Sherlock Holmes director, whose almost eight-year marriage to Madonna ended last year, is planning to focus on his career and make a host of new films while he hasn’t got a special woman in his life.
“I’ve been in this game a long time now—middle class and middle-aged. Although I suspect I’m moving into a very different period now, I sense a shift. I’m a victim of circumstance and age. It’s life, isn’t it? Let’s be frank, I’ve got a lot more time on my hands now, and because of that I’ve become a lot more career-motivated. I intend to be a very prolific mother-f***er over the next three years.”
Despite making a name for himself with London heist film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels in 1998 and gangster movie Snatch in 2000, Guy claims he has little recollection of the violent films: “I forget I’ve done them. So if ever they’re on, I’m unaware I had anything to do with them. If I were to watch Snatch or Lock Stock… I couldn’t tell you what scene was coming next. It’s embarrassing to say this, but I’d probably really enjoy watching them.”

UPDATE: Funnyman Mike Myers has also been recruited! You can find the details here.
As promised, Quentin Tarantino has definitely not stopped working on his epic WWII film, Inglorious Bastards, ever since he completed the script. After years of speculation concerning casting, a few of the roles have recently been confirmed (finally).
What came as quite a shock to most (considering Tarantino’s usual taste in actors), Hollywood heavyweight Brad Pitt was cast as the lead role of Jewish soldier Aldo Raine. Then again, it is only appropriate that Pitt play a part in a real Tarantino film, considering he had a minor role in Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers.

Demi Moore’s Directorial Debut Stays Behind Closed Doors
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Short Films, Drama, Casting, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Filmmaking, Rumors, Upcoming Releases
It appears as if Demi Moore‘s latest project has gravitated her behind the camera, placing her alongside starlets-turned-directors like Natalie Portman, Courtney Cox, and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Although the folks over at Glamour magazine are guarding the short film like hawks, Brittany Snow has leaked a few notes about her director:
“She’s so grounded and normal and a really, really talented director. When it comes to this crazy town and industry, she has a very good handle on who she is…She wore jeans and a T-shirt every day and no makeup. She was just so cool.”
The film, which is part of Glamour‘s Reel Moments Series, is slated to premiere this October. Kirsten Dunst, Kate Hudson, and Rita Wilson are among the many actresses who have participated in the past.

Grindhouses Not Just Theatres With Tarantino
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Weinstein Company, Action, Horror, Thrillers, Box Office, New Releases
It’s so hard to find a good Grindhouse these days. Theatres that cater to the darker side of the psyche by showing grisly, gory violence just aren’t easy to come by. In fact, the days of most Grindhouse theatres are days gone by. What’s a movie maker that wants to grind violence into the minds of moviegoers to do in these post-Grindhouse days? To fill this grinding gap in current culture, Quentin Tarantino (with the help of Robert Rodriguez) decided to make his very own Grindhouse double feature. Always striving to take movies to a new level of violent chills and thrills, Tarantino’s signature movie style is most definitely in place for the new double-feature flick. Early reviews are in…will Grindhouse grind out?
