So in the next few days I'll provide trailer links, information and opinions (about movies I 

haven't seen yet), so stay tuned.

Wanted

I know that I haven't talked a lot about Wanted, but I think that it deserves a post. I haven't been seeing a lot of advertising on t.v. for the film, but there is certainly a lot of buzz online. The film is based on the comic by Mark Millar and is about a group of super assassins. Having read the comic series, I can't wait for this film and the trailer itself looks amazing. James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman and Angelina Star in the film. The film opens in the states on June 27, so make sure you check it out.

Also Empire Online has posted an amazing feature on turning the comic book into a film. The feature has new footage and interviews with cast and crew, so check it out here.

Help Save Moonlight

I know I haven't talked a lot about Moonlight on this blog, but it is an amazing show, and CBS announced that they are not giving it a second season. So I recommend that if you are a fan of show you call or write to CBS and tell them that they are making a huge mistake. 

Also, while you are at it, if you like the show Shark, I suggest you do the same because that is also getting the ax.

We have to let the network know that they are making a mistake, especially when they renewed other shows, like The Unit. So let you voice be heard....and call or write CBS.

Iron Man

Iron Man is one of the best films based on a comic book. It may be better than Batman Begins. I have to see it a few more times before I make that decision. Iron Man was directed by Jon Favreau and based on the comics by Marvel. Tony Stark is a weapons manufacturer who sells his weapons to the U.S. military. While he is in Afghanistan testing his new Jericho missile he is attacked by insurgents using his own weapons and is kidnapped. During the attack he is caught in an explosion and shrapnel gets lodged near his heart. By use of an arc reactor he is able to keep the shrapnel from moving closer to his heart. The insurgents want Stark to create weapons for them, but instead he builds the first prototype of the Iron Man suit. After escaping from his captors, he no longer wants his company to create weapons, and instead wants to work on the suit and use it to help people around the world. 

Robert Downey Jr. plays the billionaire industrialist Stark. Gwyneth Paltrow plays Starks secretary Pepper Potts, Terrance Howard is Jim Rhodes, Stark's military liaison and friend. Rounding out the cast is Jeff Bridges as Obadiah Stane aka Iron Monger. I really enjoyed this film, and if you go to see it, stay after the credits for an extra scene. I'll give you a hint, it involves more then one agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
