Breaking News: In a stunning move by the studio, the advance one-sheet poster for the next Star Trek film has been released before the current film even hit theaters. Star Trek: Ferenginar Rising is slated to hit theaters in the 4th quarter 2010. We assume they intend to capitalize on the pre-release hype of the Star Trek reboot by releasing the poster for the next movie before the script is finished. Of course, this makes a few details about the next script clear: Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto will obviously be returning as Kirk and Spock, and the plot will center around the Ferengi from Star Trek: The Next Generation. According to the lore, the Ferengi were once enemies of the Federation but achieved a tenuous alliance with them by the end of Deep Space Nine. Whether Armin Shimmerman will reprise his role as Quark is unknown.

The poster for Drag Me To Hell suffers from underwhelming over-photoshopping. She doesn't appear to be being dragged down so much as she is just eating her hair. How many demons are dragging her down, and where are their heads? For someone who is supposedly being dragged to hell, she doesn't seem to be putting up much of a fight. The scratched up eroded sepia sky and background is a bit awkward, and the lighting is all wrong.
And the title is confusing. Why would someone WANT to be dragged to hell? And if they wanted to be in hell, why would demons need to drag them? You'd think they would walk there without making a fuss.

The poster for The Dungeon Masters features a goofy looking office chair with a head, pointy ears, lipstick, long hair, and dice for eyes.
The promotional scroll for The Dungeon Masters features a chair with the head of a Drow (or Ssri-Tel'Quessir in the Elven tongue). The lipstick denotes a female Drow, which is likely since Drow society is Matriarchal, as they worship Lolth, the Spider-Queen. The Elf-chair has a dodecahedron and an icosahedron for eyes. Of course, the poster is all wrong since Drow skin is obsidian in hue and they would never be caught dead in a green pastel room, as they shun brightness.
We will resist the natural urge to include a cheesy joke about a head in regards to this new Terminator Salvation poster so as to not anger
Christian Bale, lest we incur his verbal wrath. Instead, we’ll just list out some possible corny headlines and let you pick one to groan at.
- “That’s no Way to Get Ahead in Life”
- “Looks Like He’s Head of the Class”
- “The Terminator is Getting a Head Start on Death”
- “Terminator Salvation: Nothing to Lose Your Head Over”
- “Terminator Salvation: The Further Adventures of Smolder and Skully”
A very yellow Crank2 poster debuted on Twitter, of all places. It’s a Hollywood first, for Lionsgate to unveil a movie poster on Twitter. It looks like a big warning sign, which is appropriate since Jason Statham apparently electrocutes himself repeatedly in the film, which as we all know, makes for good entertainment.

Tom Hanks: 15
Tom Cruise: 14
Eddie Murphy: 13
Will Smith and Harrison Ford: 12 (including Hancock)
Jim Carrey and Robin Williams: 11
Mel Gibson and Matt Damon: 9
Bruce Willis and Jack Nicholson: 8
Will Smith, however, will have achieved something unprecedented--a feat never done by the Toms - Hanks and Cruise. Hancock will be his eighth consecutive $100M+ grossing blockbuster. Hanks and Cruise both had career-best streaks of seven films with $100M+. Here is Will's current streak.
2002: Men in Black II; $52.14M opening; $190.41M cume
2003: Bad Boys II; $46.52M opening; $138.6M cume
2004: I, Robot; $52.17M opening; $144.8M cume
2004: Shark Tale; $47.6M opening; $160.86M cume
2005: Hitch; $43.12M opening; $179.49M cume
2006: The Pursuit of Happyness; $26.54M opening; $163.56M cume
2007: I Am Legend; $77.21M opening; $256.39M cume
2008: Hancock--estimated $107M by Monday
Pixar's Wall-E (Disney) Pixar's latest masterpiece, scored another $33.41M over the three-day for a new cume of $128.13M. That gives the lonely little robot the 3rd-best 10-day gross for a Pixar movie, trailing only Finding Nemo and The Incredibles.
Hello fellow matrix fans...
I have one quick question...Has anyone noticed a relationship between the idea of the matrix and the allegory of the cave? I heard such an idea back in high school and I have not had the opportunity to explore it...someone set me straight.
Thanx in advance...
