Green Lantern First Flight coming july 28th, 2009

2009-03-01T14:37:00.000-08:00

BURBANK, CA, (February 27, 2008) – The fabric of intergalactic justice is threatened – until Hal Jordan arrives for his initial mission – in the animated Green Lantern: First Flight, the fifth entry in the popular DVD series of DC Universe Animated Original PG-13 Movies. A co-production of Warner Premiere, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation, the illuminated hero’s first-ever full-length animated film is set for release by Warner Home Video on July 28, 2009. Green Lantern: First Flight will be available as a special edition 2-disc version on DVD and Blu-Ray™ Hi-Def for $29.98 (SRP) and $34.99 (SRP), respectively, as well as single disc DVD for $19.98 (SRP). Order due date for all versions is June 23, 2009.

Acclaimed actor Christopher Meloni (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) fills the lead voice of Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern. Meloni is joined by fellow Emmy Award nominee Victor Garber (Milk, Titanic) as the villainous Sinestro, Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica) as the voice of Boodikka, and Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs) as Kilowog.

Produced by animation legend Bruce Timm, Green Lantern: First Flight is helmed by heralded director Lauren Montgomery (Wonder Woman, Superman Doomsday) and scripted by four-time Emmy Award-winning writer Alan Burnett (The Batman).

Green Lantern: First Flight finds Hal Jordan recruited to join the Green Lantern Corps and placed under the supervision of respected senior Lantern Sinestro. The earthling soon discovers his mentor is actually the central figure in a secret conspiracy that threatens the philosophies, traditions and hierarchy of the entire Green Lantern Corps. Hal must quickly hone his newfound powers and combat the treasonous Lanterns within the ranks to maintain order in the universe.

Green Lantern: First Flight - 2 Disc Special Edition versions will include incredible bonus features such as:

Over three hours of extra content

Two Featurettes

Digital Copy Download

Widescreen (1.78:1)

Two Episodes of Justice League hand-picked by animation legend Bruce Timm

Green Lantern: First Flight Blu-Ray versions will include all the great extras as the 2-disc

Special Edition as well as an additional two episodes of Justice League picked by Bruce Timm.

“Warner Premiere along with our partners at DC and Warner Home Video has enjoyed great success with the DC Universe titles, and we’re proud to present this first feature-length animated Green Lantern film,” said Diane Nelson, President, Warner Premiere. “‘First Flight’ is a compelling story and a great vehicle to tell this iconic character’s story to both new and longtime fans.”

“In all of his incarnations, Green Lantern has stood as a fan favorite, and Warner Home Video is excited to provide fans with the character’s first full-length animated adventure,” said Amit Desai, WHV Vice President of Family, Animation & Sports Marketing. “Green Lantern was the perfect hero to follow movies featuring Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and the entire Justice League.”

“Warner Bros. Animation is known for creating outstanding animated properties and has a legacy built upon some of the greatest characters ever imagined,” said Warner Bros. Television President Peter Roth, who also oversees television animation for the Studio. “Producer Bruce Timm and his creative team continue that rich tradition with this terrific DVD feature.”

“As one of the true core DC Super Heroes, Green Lantern has captured the imagination of pop culture enthusiasts with his illuminatingly human approach to justice throughout the universe,” said Gregory Noveck, Senior VP Creative Affairs, DC Comics. “Alan Burnett’s script captures the essence of DC’s canon of Green Lantern tales, and provides a fine launching point for future stories with this character.”

Apart from this animated release, Warner Bros. Pictures is currently in pre-production on a new “Green Lantern” theatrical motion picture, to be directed by Martin Campbell, bringing the popular DC Comics super hero to the big screen for the first time.

Resident Evil : Degeneration Non Spoiler Review

2008-11-14T10:46:00.000-08:00

Ok maybe a little....

so i went last night to the premiere of Resident Evil : Degeneration and for those that do not know it is a movie based on the actual video game continuity. After watching the movie im still a little confused wether it takes place BEFORE Resident Evil 4 the game or AFTER but its around that time.

Before i get on to the movie i want to talk about my experience to the premiere. When we got there it was a full house and they had a guy talk about where we were. Which was the NYC Horror Film Festival. They asked questions and were giving out swag to whoever answered them which i thought was awesome. It was interesting because they asked ok... "what was the name of the bar from shaun of the dead" and my hand was the only one that went up, but im telling you my hand went up so fast it was like a rocket and i said "winchester!" and i won a zombie book, world war z advanced reader's copy so that was pretty sweet. (even though that book came out a long time ago and i own a copy but still) Then after other people won stuff they started showing a short zombie film which sucked ass but had a good concept and then the movie started. Right before the movie started it was very quiet and very dark and i just yelled out 'WHAT ARE YA BUYIN???" then everyone started yelling "WHAT ARE YA SELLING?" "NOT ENOUGH CASH STRANNGA" "ILL BUY IT AT A HIGH PRICE!!" It was so awesome then the movie started and everyone was quiet.

Movie Review
I will say this, you will ONLY fully 100% enjoy this movie if you are a fan of the actual video games. More Specifically if you played Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil Code Veronica and Resident Evil 4, but its recommended you played and beat all of them and know the story well to fully enjoy/understand what's going on because of the little references here and there.

This movie is NOT a typical zombie movie or classic gore slash blah blah, no. It is an ACTUAL Resident Evil movie and like the game they go into the mutations not just of zombies but of other creatures. Also like the game they get into some insane "talking". In the game you meet someone and they just talk and talk and talk and talk explaining things the movie does that. I have no complains about it since the game did do things like that. They had alot of great reffrences to past games, good flashbacks to resident evil 2 the game and at the end of the film the classic 5 mins to escape a room while fighting a big giant mutated G-Virus zombie. This movie really got it down packed to the T. (...get it... T?)

I only have ONE complain about the movie. Not enough light. Most areas are very dark and i thought it worked well for some scenes but for others it was annoying. The darkness wasnt even "movie dark" it was more like just real darkness where you can hardly see the people or what's going on.

I give this movie a 4 out of 5 from the first viewing. I was really excited to see it and everyone in the movie theater was a HUGE fan, obviously since it was the premiere.

Batman Begins – a return to classical notions of Batman?

2008-07-17T21:39:00.000-07:00

“People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy and I can’t do that as Bruce Wayne, as a man of flesh and blood I can be ignored or destroyed, but as a symbol…as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting” –Bruce Wayne (Batman Begins)

I thought that would be a good quote in order to begin this article; it is fair to argue that over the past few decades Batman has become increasingly embedded within our popular culture through the comics, movies and associated memorabilia. Batman as a character has gone through several transformations within film and television from the comical representations of Adam West in the television series, the dark and brooding Michael Keaton within the Burton films to the downright unpleasant representation provided by George Clooney (whoever was in charge of casting him as Batman needs to be slapped upside the head with a rolled up Batman comic in my humble opinion). However the iconic figure of Batman the dark crime fighting hero with his characteristic trademarks such as the mask, the cape and the bat symbol to name a few have led him to become one of the most popular and widely recognised superheroes to date.

My own personal love affair with the Dark Knight began early on in my childhood (and no, for the record, I am not suggesting anything untoward in Batman’s extra curricular activities). I was brought up in a predominantly male dominated household with three older brothers so consequently was raised with stereotypically “male” interests, I would cast aside my Barbie in favour of Batman and comic book associated toys pilfered from my brothers vast collection. With this spark of interest early on and several vague recollections of the live action television series I was excited to witness my first encounter with Batman on film, which was Tim Burton’s 1989 film “Batman” and then later with the 1992 “Batman Returns”. Even at a younger age where I missed the subtle nuances to film movements such as Film Noir and German Expressionism within the cinematography I remember being in complete awe of Burton’s almost comic book like representation of Gotham City and the darker, sleeker and dare I say it - sexier version of Batman (remember as dated as it may appear to some now I was coming from seeing Adam West as Batman so this was almost revolutionary to me at the time).

I remember empathising with this character that seemed stuck in a Peter Pan stage of life somewhere between adulthood and his lost adolescence and loved watching him overcome every obstacle to inevitably save the day.
A particular scene that I always think of fondly with reference to Burton’s Batman is the flashback of Bruce Wayne’s parents funeral which was shot I believe in black and white (or at least with diminished colour) with the only thing standing out were the two bright red roses which the young Bruce carries, it was subtle artistic touches like this that really made these films stand out to me visually.

My adoration was not only reserved for Batman’s heroes however, the one thing I personally love about Batman and still do to this day is the fact that to me it has the best selection of villains in any comic who all interrelate and each possessing their own quirks and traits which as vile as their actions are within the realm of the comics and movies made them intriguing, scratch that - almost…loveable!

My enthusiasm for all things Batman only grew with the introduction of "Batman: The Animated series" and of course Schumacher’s 1997 film “Batman Forever” which introduced Val Kilmer as the fresh face of Bruce Wayne and the latest in the long line of actors destined to don the Batsuit.
This provided a stark contrast to Burtons overtly Gothic representation with it’s colourful almost pop art style cinematography, but as different as it appeared visually it merely added another aspect to how Batman could be viewed and represented and pushing the boundaries in terms of props, CGI and elaborate sets.

For many fans this is perhaps where Batman started to lose it credibility by pandering to the masses by parading well known names in order to secure box office success and relinquishing what was felt by many purists of the comic series that the “true” message of Batman had become lost somewhere in the translation.
Personally I felt this was much more accurate of the subsequent film “Batman and Robin” featuring that performance by George Clooney (I don’t hate him really - he was just horribly miscast for the role and didn’t do Batman justice in my opinion).
This experience admittedly put me off the idea of a new Batman film for fear of further degeneration of the Bat-name and it took me until earlier this year to even watch “Batman Begins” (yes, you read that correctly) after much badgering (read ‘friendly heckling’) from my friends I finally gave in and decided to give it another chance away from the immense hype it received upon it’s release, and quite frankly I’m glad that I did.

Chris Nolan’s “Batman Begins” serves as a prequel to the previous films documenting Bruce Wayne’s transformation from the angry young boy to the powerful crime fighting superhero that we have come to know over the past few decades. An interesting aspect that I noted is that throughout the film we follow Bruce Wayne’s spiritual journey to find himself, this message I felt wasn’t just limited to the character but was also perhaps representative of how we as an audience have viewed the metamorphosis of Batman throughout the films and marks a return to the classical notions of Batman from the comic books, a fact celebrated by many of its fans and critics alike.

Away from this the film also deals with themes such as fear, vengeance and presents constant dualities throughout the narrative from the two main locations (the Bhutanese Prison and Gotham city) to Bruce Wayne’s inner struggle with his own identity. Christian Bale works remarkably well as Batman and through both his performance and Nolan’s direction really represents and subjects the viewer to the inner turmoil and grief of the character at the death of his parents in a way which none of its predecessors have managed to capture.

Both the Villains of the film Dr. Crane/Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy) and Ra’s Al Ghul (Liam Neeson) are represented remarkably well also with Cillian Murphy in an almost unrecognisable guise from his role in “28 Days Later”, demonstrating a brilliant mix of intellectual wit, ice cool intimidation and psychotic tendencies which worked perfectly for the character of Dr. Crane within the context of the film.
Ra’s Al Ghul throughout the film also reflects an important aspect of Batman as a superhero that is often overlooked, he possesses a conscience and always remains on the right side of justice and never goes as far as to kill a villain intentionally. We see this within their final confrontation where Batman states “I’m not going to kill you, but I’m not going to save you either” before leaving him to determine his own fate.

Critics of the film would brand the need for a prequel as pointless and also argue that it reeks with the current Hollywood obsession with re-makes and a sense of “haven’t we seen all this somewhere before?” Whilst I can certainly acknowledge this point of view I personally believe that “Batman Begins” is a significant contribution to the Batman chronicles, which unlike Burton’s installment really gives a sense of Bruce Wayne’s journey into becoming Batman and especially with reference to the final sequence of the film is a fitting introduction to “The Dark Knight” due for release this month.

It is difficult to say in which direction the Batman films will go from here without speculation as each fan holds differing aspects of the individual stories dear to them and each director that has taken on the immense task has represented Batman in different ways either in terms of cinematography, visual style or dialogue.
What I wholeheartedly believe however is that Batman will continue to be a worldwide cultural icon for many years to come and hopefully Nolan’s representation will spark a return to a sense of gritty realism and staying true to the story and most of all the fans of Batman in future films.

That being said, it is time for me to start the next chapter of my life and career. I hope that I gave you some enjoyment over the years, and that you found my portrayal of Lex Luthor to be satisfying. I am truly grateful, as Smallville fans are the best fans out there. I sincerely hope that you will continue to follow my career through my hair growth period and beyond.

I'm very excited about what the future holds, but certainly, Smallville will always be a part of me. I will definitely miss the greatest crew in the world, and the wonderful cast that has been like a family to me.

Thank you Al and Miles for creating the show. Thank you writers, producers, directors and editors. Thanks Tollin, Robbins and Davola for being there for the pilot. Thank you Peter Roth for employing me for ten years. Lisa Lewis, I miss you already. John Glover, thanks for helping me feel more comfortable touching other actors, while acting. Bizarre, but helpful.

Mostly, I want to thank Greg Beeman for directing the "Oh Sherry" video, by Steve Perry, back in the 80's.

Norton Responds To Hulk Rumors

2008-04-22T15:04:00.000-07:00

Norton Responds to Hulk Rumors
from Slice of Sci Fi

"In recent weeks, rumors have abounded that Incredible Hulk star Edward Norton was unhappy with the final cut of the upcoming potential summer blockbuster.

Last week, the New York Times reported on the potential for the second Hulk movie to collapse under the pressure being placed on it to invigorate a franchise that stumbled a bit out of the gate. Now, Entertainment Weekly has a look at things behind the scenes of the next installment in the Hulk franchise.

EW spoke to director Louis Leterrier who said he and Norton hit it off from the first day on set and that there were no issues with Marvel during the shoot. After the shoot was over, Letterier and Norton wanted a longer (135 minute) more cerebral cut of the film while Marvel opted for a shorter (120 minute) more action-driven cut. Marvel won the argument but news got out that there was a dispute between the two parties.

Now Norton (who wants the film to be a hit) has come out and issued a statement saying that the Marvel cut, while not what he wanted, will be a better commercial success than his.

“Every good movie gets forged through collaboration, and different ideas among people who are all committed and respect the validity of each other’s opinions is the heart of filmmaking,” said Norton. “Regrettably, our healthy process, which is and should be a private matter, was misrepresented publicly as a ‘dispute,’ seized on by people looking for a good story, and has been distorted to such a degree that it risks distracting from the film itself, which Marvel, Universal and I refuse to let happen. ”

“It has always been my firm conviction that films should speak for themselves…” he added. “Our focus has always been to deliver the Hulk that people have been waiting for and keep the worldwide love affair with the big green guy going strong.”

Movie-goers will get to decide if Marvel made the right call when The Incredible Hulk opens in theaters in June. And with two cuts of the film, it’s probably a good bet we’ll get both on DVD in the future."
