Talk About Rising. The Dark Knight Rises Gets its Own Porn Parody.
8 hours ago | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Who will win this year’s box office crown? Marvel’s “The Avengers” or D.C.’s “The Dark Knight Rises”? Better yet, who would win, Vivid’s “The Avengers” porn parody, or their “The Dark Knight Rises” porn parody? From Vivid and Axel Braun, aka “the undisputed parody king”, comes “The Dark Knight XXX: A Porn Parody”, a film that actually features a better Batman costume than the big-budget Warner Bros. one. No, really, take a look at this Batman. It actually looks a bit more like the Tim Burton Batman in terms of costume, though minus Michael Keaton’s chubby cheekbones. A porn parody featuring a better Batman costume than its mainstream counterpart? A Catwoman who can actually kick ass? Zatanna? John Constantine? Nightwing? Poison Ivy? Batgirl? A Bane who can give Tom Hardy a run for his money, and a Joker who’s creepier than Heath Ledger’s? »

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter red band trailer
16 hours ago | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Hollywood isn't exactly renowned for historical accuracy, but who cares about such trivial matters when you've got Abe Lincoln fighting hordes of blood-thirsty vampires? Ahead of its release next month, a 'red band' trailer has been released for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter - an adaptation of Seth Graheme-Smith's 2010 novel from director Timur Bekmambetov (Night Watch, Wanted) and producer Tim Burton (Alice in Wonderland, Dark Shadows).
Telling the 'untold story' of the 16th President of the United States, the film stars Benjamin Walker (Flags of Our Fathers) as Lincoln, who uncovers a vampire plot to take over the United States and sets about defending his country - not with speeches, but with stakes. Walker is joined in the cast of the $75m-budgeted adventure by Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) as Mary Todd Lincoln, Dominic Cooper (Captain America: The First Avenger) as Henry Sturges and Anthony Mackie (The Hurt Locker) as William Johnson, »

Red Band Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Trailer Brings The Splat!
21 hours ago | iconsoffright.com | See recent Icons of Fright news »
I don’t know about this one, Fright readers… I remember chuckling at the mere ridiculous concept back when I first heard this book title. But now, a short few years later and we’ve already got the movie adaptation of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter. And if the first few trailers didn’t entice you, perhaps this new red-band trailer will. Looks like we can at least expect some vicious vampires and some bloody beheadings… but will it be good?
Only time will tell. Tim Burton produces while Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov helms the picture. It stars Benjamin Walker, Rufus Sewell and Dominic Cooper and opens June 22nd.
Synopsis: “Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter explores the secret life of our greatest president, and the untold history that shaped our nation. As a young boy, Abraham Lincoln witnesses the shocking death of his mother, leading him on a path to an ongoing »

10 Celebrities Who Would Be Great ‘Men in Black’ Aliens
25 May 2012 12:36 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
A pop singer. A songwriter. A provocateur. But an alien? Lady Gaga has been massively successful in her career but this Friday, the truth about this meat-wearing woman will be revealed when she’s seen as an extraterrestrial in Men in Black III. In a celebrity-as-alien cameo that the Men in Black series has become infamous for, she reportedly appears alongside fellow celebrities like director Tim Burton and pop superstar, Justin Bieber.
With that in mind, we at Screen Rant came up with a list of ten celebrities that would make great aliens in a Men in Black film. Barry Sonnenfeld has said that he only wanted to use celebrities that would still be well-known in ten years, so we, too, used that criteria in judging our selections.

Barry Sonnenfeld Explains Why Justin Bieber Is an Alien
25 May 2012 11:15 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
In the previous two Men in Black movies, the MiB video surveillance zoomed in on famous people who were in fact aliens (or suspected aliens): In the first film, the list included Isaac Mizrahi, Danny DeVito, Sylvester Stallone, George Lucas, and Steven Spielberg. In MiB3, which opens this weekend, the Men in Black are monitoring new celebr-e.T.s (trademark ours), including Lady Gaga (of course), Justin Bieber, the Dalai Lama, Shaun White, and Tim Burton. So when Vulture ran into director Barry Sonnenfeld at the premiere party on the Intrepid flight deck on Wednesday, we had to ask: What makes these people aliens?"This will get me into trouble," Sonnenfeld laughed. "But my theory behind Justin Bieber is that he's from Canada." The director then explained a larger theory behind aliens in Canada, in which an undisclosed alien species was planning to come down and live in the U. »

Few movies have us more intrigued than "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter." With a title like that, you know exactly what you're going to get: the sixteenth president of the United States going stake to fang against a pack of blood-suckers. Doesn't get more awesome than that.
Ahead of the film, Fox launched an official "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" Art Contest some weeks ago, with producer Tim Burton personally selecting the winner of the competition… and that winner has been selected: Shannon Brooks, the creator of the fantastic tribute to Honest Abe you see above you.

Acrobatics and axe-wielding action in new trailer for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
25 May 2012 9:36 AM, PDT | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »
A Blood-spattered new trailer has been issued for Twentieth Century Fox's upcoming action horror flick Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
America's 16th president leaps into action - quite literally - as an acrobatic, axe-wielding assassin of the undead in the new footage, which is embedded below.
Filmmakers Tim Burton (producer) and Timur Bekmambetov (director) bring a fresh twist to the bloodthirsty lore of the vampire with their revisionist historical thriller.
When Abraham Lincoln's mother is killed by a supernatural creature, it fuels his passion to avenge her death. Statesmen by day, hunter by night, President Lincoln sets out to crush vampires and their slave-owning helpers.
Based on the book by Seth Grahame-Smith, the film stars Benjamin Walker as Lincoln and co-stars Dominic Cooper, Anthony Mackie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Rufus Sewell.
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter will be released in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on Wednesday June 20, 2012, day and date with the film's Us release. »

Dark Shadows Movie Review
25 May 2012 8:38 AM, PDT | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »
Without the connection to something that already exists as a cult hit, the premise of Dark Shadows would be nearly impossible to sell. Even with that connection Johnny Depp struggled to get the project off the ground, and the result, unfortunately, gives us a good example of why “vanity projects” have a bad name, no matter who we have involved with them.
Worse, Dark Shadows starts out as a thoroughly impressive effort to relive a curiosity of television, not merely by revisiting its well, but by trying to do what it was trying to do. A tricky, and overly thought-intensive idea, considering the genre we’re in, it is nevertheless a surprising turn to come out of what is ultimately an indescribably silly venture.
Depp plays Barnabas Collins, and we meet him some 200 years ago. A young man born of a wealthy family, Barnabas grows to adulthood in a small »

The Hey U Guys Cinema Release Round-up : 25th May
25 May 2012 5:30 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Sacha Baron Cohen’s The Dictator finally unseated The Avengers from atop of the UK Box Office standings this week after a barnstorming opening few days that was no doubt aided by plenty of surprisingly positive reviews. The Raid had an impressive showing too coming in 5th overall this past week which isn’t bad for an ultra-violent Indonesian martial-arts movie!
This weeks big release is the third outing for the Men In Black with Josh Brolin joining Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith in the intergalactic fight against alien invasion. Sony will be expecting big things from the Mib and it’s undoubtedly one of their tent pole blockbusters of the summer. After the damp squib that was Men In Black 2 however, there was hardly a major public demand for a third installment so it remains to be seen whether there will be sufficient interest. Nevertheless, if Smith and Jones »

Men In Black 3 Review
24 May 2012 11:34 PM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Director: Barry Sonnenfeld
Cast: Tommy Lee Jones, Will Smith, Josh Brolin, Jermain Clement, Emma Thompson
Certificate: PG
Running time:106minutes
Synopsis: Upon breaking free from the Lunar-max prison Boris the Animal (Clement) travels back in time to kill his jailer Agent K (Jones), revive his extinct alien race and destroy the Earth in the process. With the fabric of time warped it’s up to Agent J (Smith) to pursue Boris back to 1969 and save the planet and his partner with the aid of a younger Agent K (Brolin)….
Time travel is one of cinema’s greatest plot devices; inevitably leading to wild flights of fantastical imagination, brilliant what if scenarios and noodle cooking-paradoxes. Not only that, but Barry Sonnenfeld has got to be one of the great directors of quirky/cultish comedy for all the family. And without a doubt Will Smith is the quintessential popcorn cinema movie star. »

Check out the ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’ Red Band Trailer
24 May 2012 2:05 PM, PDT | Destroy the Brain | See recent Destroy the Brain news »
A few years ago, a roommate of mine was reading the novel Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. I chuckled at the title but was strangely fascinated by it, as most people were. The book went on to become a success. The author, Seth Grahame-Smith, followed up his previous book, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, with Alvh. While I still have yet to read either book, Seth Grahame-Smith has become Tim Burton’s screenwriting buddy. Grahame-Smith wrote the screenplay for Burton’s recently released Dark Shadows as well as being assigned to create a new sequel to Burton’s original Beetlejuice.
IGN has released a Red Band trailer that gives us a better peek on what to expect out of the film. It looks entertaining but I’m not completely sold. What about you? Comment Below!

How do you take a movie like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter seriously? You can't really, but if it brings the gore then we're happy to give it a shot. We haven't been feeling all that keen about the film from Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov — produced by Tim Burton — but this new, bloodier clip may be the thing that changes our minds. Adapted by Seth Grahame-Smith from his own popular novel of the same name, the action thriller stars Benjamin Walker, Dominic Cooper, Anthony Mackie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jimmi Simpson, Robin McLeavy, Alan Tudyk, and Rufus Sewell. When 16th President of the United States discovers vampires are planning to take over his beloved country, he goes on a blood-soaked mission to destroy them all. However, the undead hunter's...

Watch: It's Old Timey 'True Blood' In Red Band Trailer For 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'
24 May 2012 9:48 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
So is this the summer's nuts 'n gum, "Jonah Hex"-style mess or a stylish take on the vampire genre? Or both? Frankly, it looks like it's a bit of everything in the red band trailer for "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter," a movie that we keep forgetting is coming out next month just a couple of weeks after "Prometheus." And it seems 20th Century Fox has had their attention mostly on Ridley Scott's baby as well, but with that film screening for press next week before it opens internationally, it looks like they can now put their attention on the Timur Bekmambetov-directed, Tim Burton-produced movie.
And in doing so, they've unveiled a bloody red band trailer, with lots of swinging axes and imagery to remind audiences this is totally in 3D, bro. The film stars Benjamin Walker as the former president who goes to the shed, grabs »
