More Updates On 22 Jump Street, Including Reason Behind The Title And More

"Well, one of us is going to have to change."
With filming beginning in September for the sequel to the 2012 comedy hit 21 Jump Street, aptly named 22 Jump Street, directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller have announced some more news regarding the sequel. In a recent interview with Collider.com, Lord and Miller revealed they were returning to direct the sequel. They also compared the relationship between Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum in the movie to a marriage, stating "if the first movie is about two people getting together for the first time, this is about what happens if you try to really make the relationship work." 

Lord and Miller also revealed why the sequel is called 22 Jump Street, saying "it's called 22 Jump Street because the move across the street." Makes sense if you think about it. I can't wait for this to come out next year. I loved the first one and I'm sure this one will be amazing.

"Poltergeist" Remake begins Casting

Without Heather O'Rourke will this movie be able to succeed?


The very controversial remake of "Poltergeist" has officially began casting announcing Rosemarie Dewitt (Promised Land, AMC's Mad Men) has been cast for the leading female role in the film. Gil Kenan (Monster House) is set to direct from a screenplay by David Lindsay-Abaire (Oz The Great and Powerful). The film is being produced by Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) and Rob Tapert (The Possession) by Ghost House Pictures. 

Fans aren't happy to see this petrifying classic being dabbled with, which is completely understandable especially since Heather O'Rourke (Carol), the young girl that says "There Back" in the original classic died at only 12 years old. Fans are angry that they are going to ruin her memory with this new remake. With little hope, fans will just have to wait and see if this remake can pull it off.

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea Project Is Dead

I wonder how manny Weight Watchers points that guy is.
It looks like the new film adaption of Jules Verne's classic novel 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea is dead, and has been for months apparently. David Fincher was going to direct the film, which was going to shoot in Australia. The Sydney Morning Herald reported months ago that the film was still looking for a lead, and that the film would create many new jobs for Australians and boost the Australian economy. That was apparently a lie to try and attract any studios still willing to back the project.

Despite the backing by Disney, the film could never land a leading male. Brad Pitt passed on the film to work on another film, Channing Tatum thought it wasn't "bankable enough", Daniel Craig and Matt Damon passed due to the long schedule, and Fincher disagreed with the idea of Chris Hemsworth as the star. Too bad, I was looking forward to this. I love the novel, and seeing what direction Fncher would take it.

Cory Monteith Found Dead In Vancouver, Aged 31


Sad news has struck Hollywood as Canadian actor Cory Monteith was found dead in his Vancouver apartment earlier today. Though the cause of death is not certain as of now, it seems to be an apparent overdose.

Monteith, best known for his role as Finn on Glee, was an amazing actor. He had his whole life ahead of him, and he will be sadly missed. Rest in peace, Cory.

The Heat (2013) review

The Heat (2013)


Director:Paul Feig
Writer: Katie Dipold
Staring:Sandra Bullock
Melissa McCarthy
Demian Bichir
Marlon Wayans
Micheal Rapaport
Genre: Comedy, Action and Crime.

Plot:
FBI Agent, Sarah Ashburn (Bullock) , has her eye on promotion but she isn't liked by her co-workers. She is sent to Boston  to discover the identity of  Mr. Lassen, a drug lord.  Once arriving, Ashburn realises that Lassen is eliminating his competition by killing them.  Shannon Mullins (McCarthy) who is a very territorial police officer, sneaks her way onto the case. At first reluctant, Ashburn  agrees to work with Mullins . Together the two try to track down this mysterious Lassen. They will do anything to bring him down. When Lassen discovers this, he makes it personal. Now Mullins will do anything to finish the job.

Review:
Hysterical moments tied in with the intense storyline made a classic enjoyable film. Hysterical moments spread throughout the movie were very plausible...and by the sound of the the theatres laugh, everyone enjoyed it. Sandra Bullock, returned to a FBI role after  Miss Congeniality and she did not disappoint. Melissa  McCarthy was absolutely hysterical. She did a fantastic job at playing Mullins. Her character was rather enjoyable and very very enthusiastic and passionate. She also had this soft side seen with her family.

But back to the movie...The Heat did not disappoint. Full with the action,  and comedy...we were able to witness two  completely different people trying to work together to bring down the drug lord Lassen. Although predictable at times, the chemistry between the two characters is just great. 

Mullins constant use of swear words could have been toned down a bit after using a swear word in nearly every single one of her sentences. I went in thinking 'd get a "classic buddy cop" movie mixed with stupid humor like Adam Sandler's "Jack and Jill". I was proved wrong because what I got was a fast-paced, situational based humor, with a great, orriginal, storyline.It delivers laughs like a comedy should and adds a fun to follow storyline.

I seriously suggest you go and watch the hysterical movie. 

Rate:IMDb  has a rate of 7.4. I personally believe it is worth an 8.5. 

Disagree? I'm sure many people will due to the very mixed emotions about this movie. How do you feel about the movie? Feel free to comment. 

Thanks for reading.

Dumb And Dumber To Will Begin Filming In September; Jeff Daniels Comments On The Script

My reaction to hearing the news of a sequel
Well, development on the sequel to perhaps one of the greatest comedies ever, Dumb And Dumber, is underway. Universal Studios has acquired the rights to the sequel, called Dumb And Dumber To, and both Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are reprising their roles as Lloyd and Harry. The Farrelly Brothers and coming back to both write and direct the sequel, hoping for a September 2014 release.

Jeff Daniels recently appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and they discussed the sequel. Daniels said that filming begins in September. He said he has seen the script, which he loves, and that “we’re middle-aged, we’re not pretending we aren’t. We’re middle-aged and we’re still that stupid.”

I personally can not wait for this to come out. The first on was hysterical, and 'm sure this one will be too.

Curse of Chucky Trailer Released

Earlier today, the Official "Curse of Chucky" trailer was released. This 6th film in the franchise is direct to DVD and Blu-Ray on October 8 and doesn't have a cinema release. This angered some fans for such a franchise like "Child's Play". 

Unlike the previous two films "Bride of Chucky" and "Seed of Chucky" which took a different approach with comedy, this one will live up to the original trilogy with horror as it's major genre. Also, Tiffany and Glen/Glenda do not take any part in this film and focuses purely just on Chucky...the famous "good guy" doll we all fell in love with. 

Curse of Chucky stars Brad Dourif who has voiced Chucky throughout the entire franchise. It also stars Danielle Bisutii (Insidious:Chapter 2), Fiona Dourif (True Blood), Brennan Elliott (Double Jeopardy) and Chantal Quesnelle (Blue Mountain State).

The R-rated film follows the events after Child's Play 3.

After the events of Child's Play 3, Nica, a young woman forced to a wheelchair since birth, has to regroup her sister, Barb and her brother-in-law, Ian for a funeral after the death of her mother. While dealing with Barb, Ian, along with their 5-year-old daughter, Alice; Nica receives an odd package - a creepy doll. After people start showing up dead, the fearless Nica soon suspects that the creepy doll is much more than just a doll.~Shawn Martin (IMDb). 

Below is the long awaited and anticipated trailer.

U3D Casts: SCREAMtv




SCREAMtv, the new anticipated film to TV sensation reaches our TV's in Summer 2014. Casting has been rumoured to begin and rumours are spreading fast of possible actors and actresses. So, today, Unnecessary 3D fan-casts SCREAMtv.

Hayden Panettiere, the very popular actress, stared in Scream 4 with her character "Kirby" as an instant sensation. Her fate in the fourth film was never revealed and sources said that if there were to be a "Scream 5", she would definitely be in....maybe as the new female lead. This is why she is a very popular choice for the new TV series. Fans would follow especially if she were to be Kirby Reed. Kirby was said to be the female version of Randy. If Hayden were to take the lead of the franchise to college/university, Ghostface would have a new bunch of kids to kill...the next generation. 



                               

    Sophia Bush, star of One Tree Hill, The Hitcher and Stay Alive surely is known for her amazing acting. This
actress was originally rumoured to be in Scream 5 as Sidney's 
new love's sister. She was said to be a main character. However, 
after the news of SCREAMtv, fans jumped at the chance and made
teasers with Sophia Bush in the middle next to Kirby. Of course, Sophia
could pull a role like this off. She's hot, great and definitely not new
to the horror genre. Sophia Bush would do absolutely amazing 
in this new series.





Hilary Duff, was also rumoured to be in Scream 5 as Kirby's best friend. She has the hot looks to pull of any role she wants.  This former Disney star has really grown up since her Lizzie McGuire days. Hilary would be perfect...you could see her as a new Tatum like character.





Image of Kellan Lutz



Kellan Lutz. This Twilight star has many talents. Said to be the love interest of the new main in the horror series should actually be quite easy for him. One of the upcoming actors of this century, SCREAMtv could really launch his career even bigger. He could actually do quite well in the series...who knows, he might even be the man behind the mask. His already massive fan-base would grab an audience...so it would be a very smart, strategic move to have this guy.



Image of Logan Lerman



Logan Lerman, mostly known for his role in The Perks of being a Wallflower is one of the biggest possible actors rumoured. This up and rising star could play the nerd character in the series. His strong and great acting in previous films really gives sympathy  to characters so he could add quite a strong point to the series.








Ashley Rickards, an American actress sure is on the way up. Season 6 star of One Tree Hill and a main of Awkward , this star has no problem in stretching from different characters. She has the look to be a college student easy...being a bitchy cheerleader or a smart nerd. She can pull of any roles.







Luke Mitchell, former star of Australian Soap Home and Away and star of new SciFi series "The Tomorrow People" set for a release on CW this fall, would be a great candidate for a show like this. His acting abilities are quite amazing and after only one month overseas, he managed to get a massive role. Luke could really be any character. It would be great too see him in a series like this as well. It will really range his options. 





After a few weeks of confirmation, fans have gone overboard with "teasers". So who do you think will be great for a role like this? SCREAMtv is set for a 2014 release. Auditions have been rumoured to start and the script is supposedly being written. The writer and everyone involved in the project is tight lipped however.
Let us know in the comments who you think is involved.
