The Latest Incredible Hulk Trailer
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Universal, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Science Fiction, Trailers, Upcoming Releases
While I think this trailer for The Incredible Hulk is definitely an improvement over the earlier version, I still don’t think there’s anything they could do to make that green guy look less cheesy.
And am I the only one who thinks they they should have kept that other ugly thing under wraps?
Edward Norton‘s version of The Incredible Hulk storms into theaters on June 13.

The Incredible Hulk Trailer
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Universal, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Science Fiction, Trailers, Upcoming Releases
This Incredible Hulk. This is the movie that’s supposed to make us forget about Ang Lee’s 2003 mistake called Hulk.
Unfortunately, I just found myself giggling after I saw the big, cheesy reveal.
Question is: Could they have possibly made the green guy look better? After seeing movies like Cloverfield, have we come to expect too much from our ‘monsters’?
The Incredible Hulk comes to life this summer on June 13.
New Photos of Upcoming Hulk Movie
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Universal, Action, Adventure, Casting, Upcoming Releases
Nearly five years after Ang Lee’s disappointing abomination once referred to as Hulk, Edward Norton has given us all a new hope: The Incredible Hulk.
With the help of Transporter director Louis Leterrier, Norton re-wrote Zak Penn’s (X-Men: The Last Stand, Fantastic Four) script, which was intended to be a sequel to Lee’s 2003 atrocity. Back with a better cast (Liv Tyler, Robert Downey Jr., Tim Roth, and William Hurt) and a better director (let’s face it, Lee has done nothing noteworthy other than post-Hulk, Oscar-friendly Brokeback Mountain), the film is clearly going to be great.
Empire Magazine has released new photos of the movie, which is set to release in mid-June of this year:

Brad Pitt, Edward Norton Reunion A Bust
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Universal, Adaptation, Drama, Political, Casting, Filmmaking, Upcoming Releases
It was probably one of the most buzzed about reunions since Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet were brought back together again. Now it looks like we might have to wait another 8 years to see it happen.
Back in September, it was announced that Brad Pitt and Edward Norton would join forces for the political drama, State of Play. The two, last seen together in 1999’s Fight Club, were next set to spar in the political arena. Pitt was cast as former campaign manager-turned-reporter while Edward was scheduled to play a congressman whose research assistant is murdered. I use the word ‘was’ because Play’s two core stars have since dropped out.
Unhappy with the final script, Pitt eventually backed out of the film. Although Russell Crowe had agreed to step in, his late arrival pushed the starting date from November to January. This change unfortunately posed a scheduling conflict for Norton, who was then forced to exit as well. It is now hoped that Ben Affleck will slide in his place. (I for some reason doubt the Crowe/Affleck chemistry could even come close to the original pairing’s.)
Assuming no other last minute changes are made, the movie - an adaptation of a British mini-series - will also feature Rachel McAdams, Helen Mirren, Robin Wright Penn and Jason Bateman.

Super Hero Hype has posted the very first image of the new Incredible Hulk himself taken from, what appears to be, a promotional banner.

The franchise reboot, The Incredible Hulk, opens June 13, 2008 and stars Edward Norton (as Bruce Banner), Liv Tyler (as Betty Ross), Tim Roth (as The Abomination) and William Hurt (as General Thunderbolt Ross).

The Illusionist DVD Review
Posted by Johnny Mercedes Categories: Yari Film Group Releasing, Drama, Romance, New Releases, DVD Reviews
The Illusionist takes place in early 20th–century Vienna, where young Eisenheim (Edward Norton), a poor but brilliant magician, falls for a wealthy duchess (Jessica Biel). Fearing societal ridicule, her family forbids the relationship and the lovers become separated for many years. When the duchess is engaged to Crown Prince Leopold (Rufus Sewell), Eisenhiem must use his unique skill to regain her heart, distract the nosy Chief Inspector Uhl (Paul Giamatti), and escape the vengeful wrath of the crown prince. The Illusionist is a focused and introspective story that, unlike its ‘prestigious’ rival, uses mystical effect to flesh out, not upstage, a powerful tale of love.
The Illusionist is directed by Neil Burger and based on a short story by Steven Millhauser. Rated PG-13.
