H.P. Lovecraft comes to the big screen.

I am not much of a scary movie or horror film fan for the most part but there are a few movies that stand apart to me. I enjoy mystery mixed with adventure and fantasy with sci-fi blended together well in story's. I love it when a story leads you through a world of mystery where you never know where the story will twist or turn to surprise me as the reader or viewer. This being said I am so happy to finally see that my favorite horror mystery and sci-fi story write H.P. Lovecraft's At The Mountains Of Madness is being turned to a feature film. I will without a doubt be amazing to see. It will scare the hell out of the viewers with a old fashion kind of monster mystery feel.

Now for all those who do not know anything about H.P. Lovecraft. OK so he was an amazing classic horror writer with imagination of epic proportion's. He envisioned a world where creatures from before humans ever walked the earth had come and lived and then had been called God's by man latter. They lived in a dark time on the planet and had power greater than we could ever imagine. They had such evil in their being that fear of them would make you mad. They were called the old ones and they came from the sky. Well the story's take place in the 1920's and they are filled with mystery and wonder. The story's keep your mind wanting to know what will happen next at all times. I personally love the story called The call of Cthulhu by H.P. Lovecraft but every story by him seems to take you deep into a dark time when monsters and evil seemed to be everywhere in the dark and men searched for strange realms and places where no man had ever been before. It was always about the adventure and the interesting things that happen along the way.

Director Guillermo Del Toro & Producer James Cameron

I will enjoy seeing just how the new film At The Mountains Of Madness will be on the big screen. I know it will be good knowing who it will be made by after all. The film will be directed by Guillermo del toro the famed director of both Hellboy films and the Producer of it will be none other then the man who made Alien and Avatar James Cameron.

 This will be done right knowing that

they both will be making the movie.

At the Mountains of Madness will most likely look like the king Kong movie that Peter Jackson made. It will have a city that dates back to before man ever walked the earth and strange monster like creatures that will kill almost all the members of the group of explorers that end up there. It film will have an alternite version of how the human race became but just remeber its just a story. I think it will be kind of like the older movie called the Thing that by the way is also being re-made into a new film.

It will be so creepy to see for sure. I want to see how much the story stays the same and how the movie version will be changed as well. It will take an amazing imagination to create most of the alien landscapes that are shown in the movie but without a doubt it will make me feel that old fashion horror feeling that horror movies used to have back when it was all about the mystery and fear not the gore and torcher like horror movies these days seem to be stuck on so much. I really hate that when they just shock you by cutting off someones head right on camera and showing all the gore like that is the whole point of a scary movie or something. I like it when they scare you with your own imagination like the shining did or like some of the older films from 30 years back. I know all the younger kids these days don't know anything about that but they really should because those movies back then were the classics that made it possible to make the films that are here today. Well anyway H.P. Lovecraft is one of the greatest writes I've ever known of in the dark and scary old style. He created such great story's that they lasted the test of time and are still called the real classics today. I will always enjoy his version of what scary is because he scares you with your own imagination and that is what really stands out about his book's so please anyone reading this check out some of his work. He really was ahead of his time. Well thanks again for reading my take on movies I like. I hope you will enjoy the story's by H.P. Lovecraft as much as I do.

The Hobbit... In 2012 it will be a movie at least part 1

The Hobbit movie has been a project of director Peter Jackson's for sometime now.

its been back and forth up and down for the film with everything from who would direct it to actors strikes. The film has been through hell and back. Peter Jackson is now directing it. instead of just producing the movie. That is so good for all the fans of the Lord of the rings films.There is no doubt in my mind that he is the perfect one for the job. I read the Hobbit book and loved it. I even sent it to my girlfriend. I truly loved the story and class the Hobbit book as one of the greatest story's I've read ever. So when I found out it is finally being turned into a feature film. I was so happy. I seen all the Lord of the rings films and own them on DVDs even. I think that the Hobbit is better though. I loved how the story had more of a adventure feel. The Lord of the rings story's has that too but its more about war and the movement to get rid of the evil ring. In the hobbit it feels more like a lighter young adults kind of story. It really takes me back to a childhood imagination time. Back when the world was new and full of mystery. I like story's that make me feel that way so that being said that is why I like the Hobbit so much.




On the set of the Hobbit in New Zealand

 

The story will be narrated by Frodo and Bilbo.
It will be long like the Lord of the rings so to tell the story best they will turn the story into two parts. The Hobbit Part .1 and The Hobbit Part .2. This will make it easy on the viewers and also it will make it so the whole story is told with all the detail that it deserves. I know 2012 will be another big year for movies with Superman and Batman movies coming as well but the Hobbit will more then likely be huge when it hits the big screen. I know I will be there to see Bilbo Baggins when he first gets the ring from Gollum in that cave in middle-earth.It will also be nice to see how Bilbo meets Gandalf the gray for the first time. I can't wait to see it the way I imagined it when I read the story so long ago.
Well I hope the movie will move along without any more troubles. I will be watching close on the work on this movie as time moves on....

X MEN first class stands apart from the rest.

OK so its been a little wile since my last post. OK so here I go again. I seen the X MEN first class trailer and became a fan again. I was kind of sick of the X MEN films for a wile there. They were getting to far away from the heart and soul of it all. I always thought the suits they wear in the films were to far away from the real hero suits from the comic books but now the new X MEN first class film shows then wearing the suits and looking believable too. I like how there taking the film versions serious again and showing new and interesting things that have not been shown in the films yet. I really want the movie to be better then the other X MEN film. I would like it if it was more like watchmen and more adult like with its real life world with hero's in the middle of it all.

I will put this film on my list of must see films because it is taking risks that a lot of films don't these days. The film takes place back when JFK was in office with the cold war at Americas door. It will be interesting to see how the first class of X MEN will handle that time in history. I love that idea for the beginning of the X MEN story's.
I am sold by the trailer and how good the film looks to be. I will be there to see it when it hits the big screen on JUNE 3, 2011... Well I hope you enjoy my posts on here. Please take the time to commit if you have any thoughts about the posts of mine. I would really like that. OK see you next movie...

TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON SUPERBOWL TRAILER SPOT

I watched the new TRANSFORMERS Dark of the moon trailer not to long ago. Well I should say I watched it over and over like 12 times in a row just to see what was happening in it. It has so much action that everything is moving fast. I did how ever love every part of it. It looks so much bigger and badder then ever before. I felt overwhelmed with all the action and war that takes place between the autobots and decepticons factions in the trailer. It really feels like a huge movie. I is most likely the final film of Transformers so no doubt they are going out with a bag. In the trailer I seen some great characters from the old cartoon brought to life on the big screen such as Bumblebee and a new flying Optimus Prime and as I seen a deceptican bird swoop down to attack a white car. I believe the bird to be Laserbeak. If Laserbeat is in the film then I know for sure Soundwave is then. Laserbeak in a smaller decepticon  comes from Soundwave. I seen Prime fighting lots of attacking decepticans but still did not see Shockwave the evil decepticon that is 2nd only to megatron. I also see lots and lots of decepticon drop ships floating above the city and wagging war on the buildings. I think the movie trailer left me with more questions then answers but that's OK. I will see this movie no matter what anyway.

Over all the way the trailer grabbed my attention and kept it was just freaking awesome. I really enjoy films that make you feel like your right there in the heat of the moment and Transformers movies always do that so well. I just hate that I have to wait tell 7-1-11 to see

 the new movie.                                                                        

SUPERMAN begins all over again With a new actor

Warner Bros has finally found the new actor to play the man of steel. Yes that is right SUPERMAN will return to the big screen again with an all new reboot of the franchise. The new superman will be played by Henry Cavill. The new film not tided to any of the other films will be directed by Zack Snyder who also directed 300 and watchmen. Christopher Nolan will be one of the high lighted producers of the film who also has his own films that are most memorable such as BATMAN BEGINS and most noted DARK KNIGHT. Together Zack snyder and Christopher Nolan will most likely make this the kick ass Superman movie of all time with
Henry Cavill as the new man of steel. The film will not hit the screens tell 2012 same as the 3rd BATMAN film DARK KNIGHT RISING. It will be a big year for DC comics in 2012 I personally can't wait to see how both movies turn out. One thing is for sure. They will be big and epic movies...
