Kanye West Debuts Runaway Trailer
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Trailers, Upcoming Releases, Videos
Kanye West was probably the second most-talked about person at the MTV Video Music Awards this year (second only to Lady Gaga, of course).
West was the closing performer of the night. He figured heavily in Chelsea Handler’s monologue and Taylor Swift’s performance. He even debuted his theatrical film trailer—though it was probably unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.

Twilight’s Taylor Lautner Talks About Possible New Moon Replacement
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Adaptation, Drama, Romance, Sequels, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors, Upcoming Releases
UPDATE: Taylor will be keeping his job after all.
If Taylor Lautner’s really at risk of losing his job, the Twilight actor is not going to go down without a fight. Or at least an extra push-up.
In an interview last week with MTV, the 16-year-old addressed rumors that he may be left out of the upcoming sequel. According to a recent report in Entertainment Weekly, the studio was looking to find someone else to tackle Jacob Black’s beefier role in New Moon. Since that time, Michael Copon (Scorpion King 2) and Ben Barnes’ (Prince Caspian) names have been thrown out as possible replacements. (Copon has even gone so far as to imply on his own Facebook page that he was already given the role.)

J.J. Abrams Clarifies Confusion Over Shatner Snub
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Paramount, Science Fiction, Sequels, Casting, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip
In case you aren’t aware of the ongoing Abrams/Shatner war of words, here’s your opportunity to get caught up:
J.J. Abrams makes plans to direct/produce new Star Trek movie. William becomes upset about not being involved. J.J. claims they tried to include the original Captain Kirk. Shatner denies ever receiving an offer.
So now here we are with Round 4. In this interview with MTV, Abrams says the Boston Legal star never received an offer because they never tried to make him one. J.J. explains (once and for all?) that the writers wanted to include him in the film, they just couldn’t see a feasible way to make the script work.
MTVSo do you agree with Abrams’ reasoning…or do you think they should have included Shatner anyway?

MTV Seeks Rocky Horror Remake
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: 20th Century Fox, Classics, Horror, Music, Musicals, Romance, Science Fiction, Comedy, Casting, Filmmaking, Rumors, Scripts, Upcoming Releases
Yes, you unfortunately read that title correctly: MTV is seriously planning to remake the 1975 cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
While I cannot deny how popular musicals have become (i.e. Mamma Mia!, High School Musical, Hairspray), are there not already tons of other musicals to tamper with other than this one? Can producers possibly more cold-hearted than I thought?
On the upside (yes, there’s actually an upside) to this, the executive producer of the original, Lou Adler, is attached to the project, along with BermanBraun and Fox Television Studios. They also plan on using the original screenplay (thankfully!); however, they may incorporate songs not included in the original (what?).

Fire on Universal Lot
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Universal
UPDATE: The cause was determined to be accidental. The fire was started by workers using a blowtorch.
Although the flames are not entirely extinguished, a fire at the Universal lot in Los Angeles is now contained. The blaze, which erupted around 5 a.m. this morning has injured four firefighters. It has also damaged approximately 4-5 structures including New York Street, Courthouse Square, the video vault and the building that houses the King Kong exhibit.
While no cause has yet been determined, it is believed filming was going on at the time.
The fire, located at the backlot near the theme park, should not interrupt tonight’s taping of the 2008 MTV Movie Awards.

MTV Showcases New Choke Trailer
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: 20th Century Fox, Fox Searchlight, Adaptation, Independent, Romance, Comedy, Distribution, Trailers, Upcoming Releases
While things failed to appear very promising with the mixed reviews out there thus far, the trailer for nihilistic author Chuck Palahniuk‘s latest novel-turned-film doesn’t actually look that bad!
Despite the fact that I am as much of an MTV hater as the next person, I have to admit that they do help out a couple independent films here and there that I end up truly enjoying (think Better Luck Tomorrow or Orange County). With that said, I was extremely disappointed to read the bad reviews on Choke, although seeing that MTV is now airing the official trailer for the film got my hopes up a bit. They even have an interview with Palahniuk himself on the New Jersey set.
As for the trailer (check it out after the jump), aside from the weird porn background music, Sam Rockwell seems to have pulled Victor Mancini’s persona straight from Palahniuk’s very pages. The very racy and provocative film’s release date has been pushed back to September 26th.
