Breathe easy folks, this is not a remake of the 1984 Emilio Estevez cult classic Repo Man, but rather a new dark sci-fi thriller starring Jude Law and Forest Whitaker. In the future, artificial organs save lives, but they also cost a lot of money. Many people buy them on credit, and when they fail to make a payment, Jude Law and his buddies come knocking at their door to rip the organs back out of their bodies. Sounds like kind of a clever concept to me, and perhaps a timely one as well. The first trailer for Repo Men is a red band one, which is mainly so that they can show off the bloody nature of the job (although there is some brief nudity as well). You should be warned that the trailer does give away a plot twist that may or may not end up being a big spoiler. »

Jude Law and Forest Whitaker in Repo Men
Photo: Universal Pictures Universal's upcoming action-thriller Repo Men starring Jude Law and Forest Whitaker has already been rated R for strong bloody violence, grisly images, language and some sexuality/nudity. So, I guess it is only appropriate the first trailer for the film to be released is a red band trailer featuring a bit of the naughty just in time for the holidays.
In this futuristic action-thriller humans have extended and improved lives through highly sophisticated and expensive mechanical organs created by a company called The Union. The dark side of these medical breakthroughs is that if you don't pay your bill, The Union sends its highly skilled repo men to take back its property...with no concern for your comfort or survival.

Today we have a the red-band band trailer for a sci-fi action-thriller called Repo Men. Before you start freaking out: no, it’s not the sequel to the 80s cult-hit with Emilio Estevez and flying cars.
Repo Men stars Jude Law and Forest Whitaker as two futuristic agents whose job is to repossess the hi-tech organs of recipients who can’t pay their costly bills to a less-than-friendly company called The Union. The movie is based on the novel The Repossession Mambo by Erica Garcia, who also wrote the novel-turned-movie Matchstick Men.
Of course, a film like this needs a twist and in Repo Men that twist comes when Law’s character, Remy, has an accident that forces him to receive one of The Union’s hi-tech hearts. When Remy can’t pay his own bills for the new heart, the company he used to get his hands dirty for »

Universal has just debuted the first deliciously red band trailer for Repo Men over on MySpace. This is the Hollywood rip off of Darren Bousman's Repo!

And if you don't make your payments, the repo men will come and rip out the organs right out of your body. Repo Men stars Liev Schreiber, Jude Law, Forest Whitaker, Alice Braga, Carice van Houten, and RZA. This trailer is red band and is pretty bloody, brutal, and gory (so watch out!), but it also looks pretty damn good.

It's no secret that many rappers are huge comic-book fans: For example, Ghost Rider and Iron Man are aliases of comic-book characters Johnny Blaze and Tony Stark respectively, but they're also aliases of Wu-Tang Clan's Method Man and Ghostface as well. Meth adopted Johnny Blaze out of his love for the badass with a flaming skull, mystical chain and penchant for vengeance, and Ghostface actually named his first album Ironman, and appeared in the first "Iron Man" movie.
That's why Shady Records exec Riggs Morales jumped at the idea to become an associate producer for the "Marvelous Color" exhibit in New York, which runs through February 26 of next year. The exhibit, which is curated by Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez, highlights the six major black characters in the Marvel Comics Universe: Storm, Black Panther, Blade, the Falcon and War Machine. »

Opens: July 23rd 2010
Cast: Steve Carell, Paul Rudd, Zach Galifianakis, Bruce Greenwood, David Walliams
Director: Jay Roach
Summary: A renowned publisher encourages his friends to invite the most pathetic guests possible for their weekly dinner party. Just as they find the most pathetic man yet, the host is injured and ends up trapped with the man all night long.
Analysis: A remake of director Francis Veber's 1998 César award-winning "Le Diner des cons", 'Schmucks' is one of the highest profile comedies of next year with one of the strongest casts for the genre in recent memory. It also marks the return of "Austin Powers" and "Meet the Parents" helmer Jay Roach who has produced several films in recent years but hasn't directed since 2004's "Meet the Fockers".
The question now lies not in the performers or director but the material itself and whether a Gallic comedy can »

Rapper brought Odb's mother, Cherry Jones, onstage for touching moment.

Raekwon had an emotional moment last night during his Only Built for Cuban Linx 2 concert at New York's Irving Plaza. The Chef was rolling his classic tunes such as "C.R.E.A.M." (he performed both his and Inspectah Deck's verses) and "Ice Cream" (Cappadonna came out as a surprise guest) when he took time to acknowledge the presence of an extra-special VIP. The Wu-Tang Clan vet announced to the crowd that Ol' Dirty Bastard's mother, Cherry Jones, had braved the cold to come to the show.
In a heartwarming moment, Rae brought Ms. Jones onto the stage, and the pair hugged for a couple of minutes, likely reminiscing about their deceased loved one, who died in 2004 of an apparent drug overdose. Rae's DJ then played a »

Director Todd Phillips' follow-up to The Hangover is another new comedy titled Due Date. The movie stars Robert Downey Jr. as an expectant father on a road trip racing to get to the birth of his first child. Zach Galifianakis stars as his "unlikely travel companion" and the two of them race across the country. The cast also includes Jamie Foxx, Juliette Lewis, Michelle Monaghan, Alan Arkin, and RZA. It sounds like Planes, Trains & Automobiles but with an expectant father twist. SlashFilm has the first photo which looks like it was scanned from a copy of Entertainment Weekly (but I'm not sure?). Did one of them bring a dog as well? Downey Jr. and Galifianakis are both hilarious actors on their own, yet they make a perfect mismatched pair of travelers. My problem with this, and most of Todd Phillips' films, is that it will probably never go »

It’s a crazy, mixed up world and we are thankful for movies, sans New Moon, that offer proof. Weekend Weirdness cocks its disoriented, nappy head to examine such flicks, whether it's a new trailer for a provocative indie, a review, or news of an excavated cult classic. The works discussed herein tend to make cinema a little more interesting, and in the best and worst cases do the same for life. In this installment: Final Flesh is a real life Videodrome with porn actors from the co-creator of Wonder Showzen; Dirty is the forthcoming, surprisingly solid doc on the late Wu-Tang Clan rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard; [adult swim]'s Aqua Teen Hunger Force plops out a spicy Meatwad of a Xmas album, and more, G. The "G" is courtesy Nic Cage's bad lieutenant. Nearly a decade after he worked as a writer for Late Night with Conan O'Brien, the career of »

If there were awards for "Comedian of the Year" (and maybe there are — we're just too lazy to look it up), it's probable that Aziz Ansari would be a finalist. With his turn as raunchy Dane Cook-esque stand-up comic Randy (or rather, "Raaaaaaaaaaaandy") in "Funny People," combined with his work on NBC sitcom "Parks and Recreation" and his upcoming Comedy Central special "Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening," he has delivered consistently and hilariously in the past year. One of his finest moments came when he poked fun at mixtape DJs with a spoof track, where he talked over Jay-z's "Hate." In 2010, he's going to keep his hip-hop enthusiasm going strong with a full-blown mixtape. The tape, which will drop some time in February, is a collaboration with TV on the Radio's Dave Sitek (along with DJs the Have and DJ Granwizerd) and will feature an entirely new batch of music and lyrics. »
