Mid-Week Movie News Wrap Up - July 15, 2009

15 July 2009 10:59 AM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news

It’s officially mid-week and here’s what’s going on:

Harry Potter waves his wand at midnight and conjures box office records; the Heathers may be gone for good; Cox and Arquette are Screaming again; Robin Hood has its King Richard; The Limey may get a sequel; it’s a wrap for Nightmare on Elm Street; The Crow will fly again for the first time; Warner Bros. may be returning to the Major League; and The Toronto Film Festival has a list of flicks that could become next year’s greats.

Let’s get to it:

 

.

1. Variety is reporting that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince conjured up a whopping $20 million in box office receipts from midnight showings alone. If this figure holds, it would make the sixth installment of J.K. Rowling’s wizard adventure the highest-grossing midnight debut of all time. Previous record holders were The Dark Knight

'A Nightmare On Elm Street' Remake Inadvertently Likened to New Coke

14 July 2009 2:00 PM, PDT | From MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news

One, two, Freddy’s coming for you… three, four, will there be more gore?

The remake of “A Nightmare on Elm Street” has just finished filming in Chicago. While we have to wait until next April to actually see the movie, Patrick Goldstein at Los Angeles Times blog The Big Picture has an early preview of the franchise reboot. There’s not much in the way of details, not even a look at the new Freddy Krueger (played by “Watchmen” actor Jackie Earle Haley). Instead, Goldstein focuses on the talent involved, including music video director Sam Bayer (“Smells Like Teen Spirit”), and addresses the difference in budget between this remake and the 1984 original.

The way the piece reads, I’m almost led to believe that the new “Nightmare” will be more of a thriller about a pedophilic psychopath than a slasher flick. While the original is indeed about a child

Brad Fuller Calls Elm Street Fans Idiots

13 July 2009 5:32 PM, PDT | From HorrorYearbook | See recent HorrorYearbook news

A Nightmare on Elm Street producer Brad Fuller had some interesting words for fans who think Jackie Earle Haley is not worthy of replacing Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger. Jackie and Clement spent four hours a day painstaking applying all the make-up, appliances, texture before coming to shoot. And when we were all done at the end of the day they had to stay for at least another hour to take it off. For those of you keeping score at home that is 5 hours a day, on top of 12 hour shooting days. Those among you who are so closed-minded that you can't fathom anyone else playing the role, you are idiots. So much time and effort put into bringing Freddy back and you dismiss him before you've seen his efforts, it's just stupidity. See what we've done and then pass judgment; but there isn't a person out there who can

Watchmen: Ultimate Collector’s Edition Details & Deleted Scene

13 July 2009 8:34 AM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news

So for some time now Watchmen director Zack Snyder has been saying there would be two versions of Watchmen released on DVD/Blu-ray: a directors cut, featuring the full-length version of Watchmen not shown in theaters, as well as an “ultimate edition” of the film, which would include the full-lentgh film interwoven with the animated Tales of the Black Freighter side-story, just like in the original graphic novel.

After learning that Watchmen: The Director’s Cut will be coming to DVD/Blu-ray (and three movie theaters) this month, we now have the first details of what Watchmen: Ultimate Collector’s Edition will be all about, as well as a highly-anticipated deleted scene from the full-length film: Check out the death of Nite Owl!

 

It’s funny, last week I wrote a post about the new scenes featured in Watchmen: The Director’s Cut. In that post I

The Horrors of Comic-Con 2009: Friday

10 July 2009 | From shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news

For the horror lot seeking info in the film and comic book mediums Friday is fairly balanced. Notably, Platinum Dunes is trekking back to San Diego, this year bringing guests from A Nightmare on Elm Street and perhaps your very first look at actor Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger. No, Haley won't appear in make-up but hopefully they'll have photos to debut. Also, cool: Sony is previewing Legion , which has been in the works for over a year now, and Peter Jackson is in attendance for District 9 ! What puzzles me is the capper to the schedule: Danny DeVito is going to show off a new fright flick called The Blood Factory . Have to look further into this one. We'll be updating live from this year's event, so stay tuned! 10:00-12:30 Warner Bros. - Join WB for...

20 Most Anticipated Movies Still to Come In 2009

9 July 2009 2:33 AM, PDT | From Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news

20 Most Anticipated Movies Still to Come In 2009 At the beginning of the year I made a list of my Top 15 Most Anticipated Films of 2009. Of that list I have now seen five of them. Nine out of the remaining ten made this list as I bumped Alejandro Amenabar's Agora since it has still yet to get picked up by a distributor due to rather weak reactions out of the Cannes Film Festival. However, a few films have made their way onto this list thanks to strong film festival reactions as I have put together a list of 20 films to look forward to as we move into the final six months of 2009. One film I didn't include merely because it is coming out next week and I felt it would be a wasted space is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I am undoubtedly anticipating seeing it and had it been

Check out a new batch of photos from the set below the break...

You didn't think you were really getting a pic of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy yet, did you? According to Fuller, "that is mini freddy and mini jason attacking our exec at New Line on his birthday."

So no pic yet, but Fuller promises it's "coming soon." You know, Comic-Con is just around the corner...
