The most anticipated movies of 2010

I stumbled upon this article  and after reading it and realizing I wasn't anticipating any of those movies, we decided to find an alternative, which is to check the Apple's trailer website -our new favorite activity btw.

Inception
What the hell is this movie talking about?
Will wait and see

Legion
When watching the preview, my sister told me this movie reminded her of a very bad one she didn't finish, about a bunch of people who were fighting an invasion of alien sand worms -or something like that , also inside a diner.
No, just no


I'm actually pretty excited about Daybreakers. Even if the theme of vampires is overplayed lately - thanks Twilight, I liked how they tweaked the story here.
Will definitly go


Seriously, I wonder if Sam Worthington's didn't make use of the casting couch concept because I can't explain how he managed to get the lead on so many blockbusters (Terminator, Avatar and now Clash of the Titans). The latest is the definition of the state of Hollywood nowadays, something that started -for me - with Transformers. Just put the cream of the special effects technology in your movie and you're done. Don't bother with writing a story or casting worthy actors.
Will still go ,  I am a prisoner of Hollywood's marketing policies

Iron Man 2
While I have to agree they did a good job casting Robert Downey Jr for the lead, this movie was what started my mistrust for movies critics. How come everybody raved about this movie? I was utterly disappointed. I'm really not excited about the sequel.
If somebody pays for my ticket only


This is a sad sad day... Hollywood casting two actors that look nothing like the population that lives in the Middle East... The last time I went to the movies, two of my friends told me they could not understand this decision when they saw the poster.
I'm not really into Prince of Persia myself...I didn't even enjoy the concept of the game. We got bored very fast and moved onto something else.
If somebody pays for my ticket only

Robin Hood
I didn't like the huge amount of violence I saw in the trailer and I just can't fathom Russel Crowe -urgh- as Robin Hood. Sorry.
Will wait and see

The Sorcerer's apprentice
When I saw Nicolas Cage, I closed the trailer window.
No, just no

Fading of the cries
Seriously????????
No, just no

Kick ass
Actually the poster looked interesting, but the trailer set things straight. Not my thing at all.
No, just no

And finally
Wolfman
Done, done and redone... Come on Hollywood!
No, just no

The apocalypse is coming to a theater near you

I just caught up with the trailer of The Road and I realized that there were a lot of new apocalypse-related movies being released soon. I don't know, I guess it must be the new trend but well I don't mind it because after the summer blockbusters, I was waiting for some new action-related flicks.... Unfortunately the one I'm the most looking forward , the Book of Eli,  is only coming next January ....








To be honest, I don't really see the purpose of 2012 and I don't really trust the background idea for The Road - it's going to be too much about the father-son relationship,  so I'm all for The Book of Eli!!!

Hope it won't disappoint.

Twilight New Moon soundtrack

I was reading @PITNB about the new  twilight soundtrack and remembered hearing about Thom Yorke being on it. I had a quick look at the list of artists featured and I can say, wow, good job ! Look for yourself:

1. Death Cab For Cutie – Meet Me On The Equinox 
2. Band Of Skulls – Friends 
3. Thom Yorke- Hearing Damage 
4. Lykke Li – Possibility 
5. The Killers - A White Demon Love Song 
6. Anya Marina – Satellite Heart 
7. Muse - I Belong To You (New Moon Remix) 
8. Bon Iver and St. Vincent – Rosyln 
9. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Done All Wrong 
10. Hurricane Bells – Monsters 
11. Sea Wolf – The Violet Hour 
12. Ok Go- Shooting The Moon 
13. Grizzly Bear - Slow Life 
14. Editors – No Sound But The Wind 
15. Alexandre Desplat – New Moon (The Meadow)

Thom Yorke, Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, Muse (though I'm not so sure after the last album),  Death Cab for a Cutie, Ok Go, I'm definitely interested into seeing how this whole thing sounds. Only 10$ on amazon on top of that.

Funny Last.fm preview

I screencapped my last.fm playcounts of the week because I thought the display of artists at this moment was rather funny/odd. On the top are only hip-hop artists , respectively, a producer, the new hot thing, the veteran, and the love/hate rapper . On the bottom are what I would label as "indie" artists. Anyway I just feel like doing a quick introduction as how I got into them, so here you go! I love to do that!!!

1. Madlib . Well I decided to try his beats (even though I'm not really an "instrumental/beat" person) as he's one of the main producer working with MF Doom (my latest hip-hop obsession). I'm Very Impressed . Well not very impressed , I kinda foresaw it would be good based on his work with Doom.
2. J.Cole : I was chit-chatting with this hip-hop head about music when he ordered me to try it out. I thought why not? Quite impressed . I mean his latest mixtape is almost album material.
3. Q-Tip : His latest album was very well received in the hip-hop community. I don't really like Q-Tip cause I don't like nasal voices on guys, but the album really grew on me.Very impressed. Really nice beats, different from what you're usually listening on the radio.
4. MF Doom & MF Grimm : Well this is a long story. I was browsing my regular forum when someone posted asked about songs with irregular beats. Along this came this video. I was hooked. I decided to try more of it. I cannot rate it cause I'm automatically biased with MF Doom.
5. The Olivia Tremor Control : It started with The Instruments, a group part of the label Elephant 6. I decided to get more into this label, starting with the some of the most famous bands. Some highs and lows depending on my mood
6. Grizzly Bear : More here
7. Panda Bear : He's the main (most accessible) artist behind Animal Collective so I decided to give a try to his solo work. Very Impressed
8. The Shins : Randomly got it when I was in my random period (it happens sometimes). Not impressed, rather generic band tbh.

My fair lady

I caught glimpses of what could be an excellent new korean drama! It's not like we'll get a revolutionary story but you can see for yourself, the fashion is to die for! I can't wait! @youtube

These Are My Twisted Words - new Radiohead song

So here's a new song, called 'These Are My Twisted Words'.
We've been recording for a while, and this was one of the first we finished.
We're pretty proud of it.
There's other stuff in various states of completion, but this is one we've been practicing, and which we'll probably play at this summer's concerts. Hope you like it.

To listen @deadairspace, image @flickr
I have to say that I was listening to this song while posting and I got a little afraid cause the intro was so long, I started to wonder if they kinda went instrumental. No nono can do! I need Thom Yorke's voice!

G.I. Joe - 7 august 2009

@Trailer

@Petite nostalgie

Who's excited?

Me babyyyy.

It's funny they seem to like to attack France in the movies nowadays. Don't destroy my pretty country !!!

Stuff I need to try

and the new Dirty Projectors - Bitte Orca

Qu'est ce qui a l'air pas pire dans le tas?

lol at New Moon trailer

So , à vrai dire je sais pas pourquoi je suis arrivée sur un tel lien. Je pense que je me suis demandée ce que la série Twilight pouvait avoir de si bien, et je me suis dit, allez essaye donc, les trailers c'est plus ou moins senser te mettre l'eau à la bouche.


WHAAAAAT?!!! WHAT A JOKE??!!!

Ce que je comprends encore moins c'est comment j'ai pu lire dans certaines critiques que la chimie entre les deux acteurs transpirent à travers l'écran. C'est vraiment laughable. No kidding, wth man! On dirait deux personnes super bored avec leur vie, qui recitent leur lignes comme s'ils etaient devant des cardboards.

Count me out.

Coco avant Chanel

The frog princess de Disney (et son prince)

Pour revenir sur le sujet de Beyonce/Michelle Obama en couverture de Vogue US, voici un des first looks de The frog princess de Disney, le premier film de Disney mettant en vedette une princesse de couleur noire.

Cute non?

Dernièrement Disney a publié des photos de son prince et certaines personnes se sont indignées parce qu'il est blanc!!!!  Avant de voir les photos j'étais prête à parier qu'il allait être noir aussi, vu l'ouverture que les "médias américains" ont face aux relations interraciales. Mais :

 

Il n'a pas l'air plutôt arabe? Il s'appelle Naveen en plus... En tout cas, chapeau!!! Une princesse noire et un prince arabe ... Eh ben dis donc.  YES WE CAN lol.

Previews de la semaine

My Bloody Valentine 3-D

Ce qui m'interesse surtout dans ce film, c'est le concept du 3D. Je me demande ce que ca va donner.  Je ne sais pas pourquoi ils sortent un film de la "St-Valentin" un mois avant la date... Anyway

Defiance

J'aime pas trop les films de guerre, et je pense que l'atmosphere du film doit etre tres tendue. Meme si la distribution a l'air excellente, je pense que je vais passer.

Previews

Gran Torino

Avec Clint Eastwood.

Ca me rappelle un peu The Substitute, un de mes films préférés.

The Unborn

Ca a l'air de faire très peur, j'aime pas trop les films qui dealent avec la religion, mais l'idée a l'air interessante.
