Streaming for Your Pleasure: Memorial Day Edition
30 May 2012 5:06 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »
Article by Dan Clark of Movie Revolt
Well it’s that time again, time for another installment of Streaming for Your Pleasure. With Memorial Day weekend upon us America is about to officially start the summer. Barbeques, beers, and beaches will surely take up much of our time this weekend, however let us not forget the purpose behind this day as we celebrate the glory that is a three day weekend. In all seriousness it is a time to honor our Veterans and current soldiers for the remarkable sacrifices they make. No matter what political stance you may take I feel that is one thing we can all get behind. With that in mind I dedicated this installment to all things military as I look at military centric films currently available on Netflix Streaming.

Eye on Emmy: Homeland’s Damian Lewis Talks About Playing No Ordinary Anti-Hero
27 May 2012 7:00 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »
Just as Nicholas Brody received a hero’s welcome upon being rescued from captivity in Afghanistan, Damian Lewis of Showtime’s Homeland has been met with plaudits for his riveting portrayal of the conflicted Marine sergeant, husband, father and… would-be terrorist. Lewis – going for his first Emmy nomination this year, having previously been nominated for the 2012 Golden Globes for playing Brody on this series and in 2002 for his role in HBO’s Band of Brothers – reveals how he makes the potentially reprehensible relatable.

Cool Videos: Ron Livingston's Keyboard Cat Redux
24 May 2012 1:56 PM, PDT | JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news »
A year ago, Ron Livingston made an account with YouTube. So far the only video he has uploaded is his rendition of the "Keyboard Cat" video. Other than that he's only favorited a few Starcraft in-game clips. Definitely not a bad thing. Although the video was posted a year ago, I've never seen it until it was posted on Reddit. Livingston has been in several awesome films as you already know like Office Space, Swingers, Adaptation and the series, Band Of Brothers. I thought I'd »

Michael Fassbender
20 May 2012 7:36 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
The actor is noted for his huge range of work, from Shame to Jane Eyre and his new role as a robot in the prequel to Alien is likely to add to his plaudits
When Michael Fassbender was a teenager growing up in Killarney, Co Kerry, he wanted more than anything to be a heavy metal rock star. He grew his hair long, wore cut-off combat shorts and 10-hole Doc Martens and spent much of his spare time listening to thrash metal bands Metallica and Slayer at ear-splitting volume.
As it was, he performed a single concert in a pub with his friend Mike. It was the middle of the day and the regulars kept asking them to turn the volume down. "Nobody wants to hear Metallica at lunchtime," Fassbender recalled in a recent interview with GQ magazine.
But heavy metal's loss turned out to be acting's gain. At the »

Teaser Poster For Pattinson’s ‘Mission: Blacklist’
13 May 2012 9:04 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Less than a fortnight ago, Thn brought you news that Twilight Saga pin-up Robert Pattinson had signed up for duty on military-thriller Mission: Blacklist. Now, before shooting has even begun, we have a teaser poster from the upcoming movie, set to detail the hunt for Saddam Hussein.
Pattinson will take the role of Eric Maddox, the man who led the mission that eventually located the notorious Iraqi leader. That, in turn, led to his capture, trial, and ultimately his death sentence. The film, to be directed by Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire, is based on the novel Mission: Black List #1: The Inside Story of the Search for Saddam Hussein — As Told by the Soldier Who Masterminded His Capture. Band Of Brothers screenwriter Erik Jendresen has adapted the source material.

Robert Pattinson Eyes: Mission: Blacklist Poster
12 May 2012 3:05 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
He’s got Robert Pattinson’s eyes: Mission: Blacklist poster Robert Pattinson was officially cast in Mission: Blacklist, as American military interrogator Eric Maddox, about ten days or so ago. Producing company Embankment Films isn’t wasting any time. The sales poster for Mission: Blacklist, which will be peddled at the Cannes Film Festival, has been making the rounds online for several days. "In a World of Lies Only One Man Could See the Truth." That man was apparently Pattinson’s Maddox, who claimed to have eschewed torture while trying to figure out the whereabouts of fallen Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. The brief Mission: Blacklist plot synopsis reads as follows: Unlike other Interrogators fresh out of training, Eric Maddox (Robert Pattinson) has a brilliant and beautiful mind. He has a unique ability to decipher highly complex patterns from seemingly random events. His mission is to trap the world’s most wanted man, »

Look Into His Eyes: Promo Poster For Robert Pattinson's Saddam Hussein Movie 'Mission: Blacklist'
11 May 2012 3:04 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
With a role in David Cronenberg's upcoming freak fest "Cosmopolis," Robert Pattinson continues to take on parts that...well, that are as far away from Edward in the "Twilight" movies as possible. And so to that end, last week he signed up to star in the thriller "Mission: Blacklist," and in case you missed the news, he'll be the guy hunting down Saddam Hussein.
With the Cannes Film Festival around the corner, the producers are gonna have to start selling this thing, so they've banged out a sales poster that feels like something that was made for a movie that was just announced last week. Featuring a hypnotic closeup on Pattinson's eyes (Squeeeeee!), the one sheet boasts a pretty generic tagline and not much else, though the weird design makes it seem like Saddam Hussein is a co-star. Based on the book "Mission: Blacklist #1," the psychological thriller will be »

Sons of Anarchy Game: 10 More TV Series Games We Want To See
10 May 2012 7:38 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter has confirmed that a console-based video game adaptation is in development, replacing the original browser format idea. Sutter took to Twitter to break the news:
“So A Game Update. had a great meeting with a big distributor yesterday. myself and everyone at FX and Fox is committed to making this happen… Yes, we definitely wanna do a Real game. console based. not some slapcrap browser MP thing. it’ll take awhile, but it’s the right way to go.”
Bad boy biker Fps anyone? GTA style sandbox? Both intriguing ideas, and one thing is for certain, given Sutter’s reaction to the “rushed” Walking Dead game, any Sons of Anarchy project is likely to be well-planned and executed.
To celebrate the news, we’ve been thinking of ten other TV shows that we’d like to see given the video game treatment, so here goes nothing… »

Stuart Heritage's TV Od: Homeland
4 May 2012 4:06 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
After 11 weeks of jazz fingers and purple felt-tip pens, Homeland is coming to an end. But has it been more than the new 24?
God knows what I did on Sunday evenings before Homeland (9pm, Channel 4). I can only assume it involved a combination of watching Top Gear, shouting at Top Gear, staring at my fists and hating myself. But I'd better get used to that feeling again; the first series ends tomorrow, and I'm not sure how I'll cope.
Homeland is an increasingly rare specimen: a quality Us import that Sky Atlantic hasn't hoovered up like your fat auntie at a buffet. Admittedly, it took me a while to figure this out. First I had to overcome the suspicion that it'd be another hectoring show about Iraq. And then I had to overcome the suspicion that, as a sophisticated post-Wire American drama series, it'd just be a load of »

Trying saying Robert Pattinson-Saddam Hussein in the same sentence without laughing. Laugh if you dare but that's an artistic mash-up that may shortly be maing its way to your multiplex. According to the Huffington Post the start of the Twilight juggernaut is currently attached to Mission: Blacklist, a true-life story about Us military interrogator Eric Maddox, the man who helped coordinate the capture of Hussein on December 13, 2003. The new script for Mission: Blacklist is based on Maddox's novel, Mission: Black List #1. Writer Erik Jendresen (Band of Brothers) wrote the adaptation and the project has already been green lighted. It will be a major gear change for Pattinson, who may forever be best known for playing the pasty vampire Edward Cullen in the billion-dollar grossing 'Twilight franchise. But Pattinson has been choosing roles that help him branch out from his contact lens wearing heyday. He took on a traditional »

Robert Pattinson in Mission: Blacklist, the movie version of Us army interrogator Eric Maddox’s book of military memoirs, Mission: Black List #1: The Inside Story of the Search for Saddam Hussein — As Told by the Soldier Who Masterminded His Capture (co-written with Davin Seay).

Johnny Mad Dog’s Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire has been assigned to direct the project. (The Robert Pattinson news of today is that he has signed on to star in The Rover. More on that in my follow-up post.) Now, even though we’re dealing with the Us military and prisoners of war, don’t expect torture to play a role in Mission: Blacklist. Maddox claims he never tortured anyone, and has publicly »
