No Vampires In Vlad! But Colin Farrell Might Be
10 December 2009 11:06 AM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Just the other day it was announced that Charlie Hunnam from Sons of Anarchy, and a little known favorite of mine Green Street Hooligans, sold a script called Vlad to Summit Entertainment, sending the intertubes into fits of speculation about yet another vampire film. Recently though, Entertainment Weekly caught up with the bad ass biker to chat about the story, and praise be to the movie Gods because he was quick to clarify that this would be the story of Vlad the Impaler, not Dracula. .As the script stands now, we don.t touch on vampirism. That was my one non-negotiable area when we were developing it, and thankfully, nobody suggested that we should delve into it at the end. But you can clearly see the things that Bram Stoker took. -Hunnam to EW Going deeper into specific aspects of what the script entails, Hunnam reveals that the entire first »
Be Glad That Brad is Involved With Vlad
9 December 2009 | Horror Asylum | See recent Horror Asylum news »
Housewives favourite hunk of male meat Brad Pitt will be returning to his vampiristic beginnings, following his bloodsucking appearance in 'Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles' back 15 years ago, this time in a producers capacity on new vamp movie 'Vlad', the story of Dracula in his early years. The film is written by young Brit actor Charlie Hunnam who you may remember from 'Green Street Hooligans' and 'Cold Mountain'. And the film centers on »
Summit Looks To 'Twilight' Roots For Brad Pitt's 'Vlad'
7 December 2009 10:00 AM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
Vampires pretty much put Summit Entertainment on the map after the company made the wise decision to produce and distribute "Twilight." Now, as Summit continues to rake in money with "New Moon," The Hollywood Reporter brings word that the house Edward Cullen built is interested in exploring the roots of the undead creatures at the heart of the franchise.
Summit will collaborate with Brad Pitt's production company, Plan B, on "Vlad," a period action film about Vlad the Impaler as a young prince. The real-life 15th century Wallachian ruler, famously the inspiration for Bram Stoker's book "Dracula," may not be portrayed in the film as a vampire, but his connection to the mythology cannot really be ignored.
Viewers may also be reminded that Pitt starred in "Interview With the Vampire," though it's not likely the actor will appear in "Vlad," for which Summit reportedly wants to "break a new talent. »

Pitt Producing Dracula Movie Vlad
6 December 2009 10:24 PM, PST | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
Given that vampires have earned the company one or two pennies in the last couple of years, it's hardly surprising that Summit Entertainment would be looking to stick with the creatures of the night (or the day, in the Twilight gang's case). But for its next trip to bloodsucker central, the subject matter is somewhat more traditional: Dracula, with Brad Pitt's production company helping to keep the blood flowing.Don't go expecting it to be all capes and fangs just yet, though. Vlad, a script written by actor Charlie Hunnam (of Green Street and now TV's Sons Of Anarchy) is the focus, with music video man Anthony Mandler aiming to direct. Vlad will explore Drac as a young prince, plundering the history of Vlad the impaler, the man behind the myth. Summit apparently nabbed the rights to the script a while ago, but has been keeping it in a development dungeon until Mandler, »
Anarchy from the UK: Top 5 UK Comic Strip Movies I’d Like to See
29 November 2009 12:21 PM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
British comics have not been well served in their Hollywood adaptations. Transatlantic transitions from page to screen result in either being too faithful, as Zack Synder’s Watchmen arguably was, or too loose with the essence of the source material, resulting in a genre bound snooze fest – Judge Dredd please stand up (and don’t remove your helmet!).
While the golden age of American comics have lit up the screen in this last decade, with visionary directors taking the basic elements of these iconic characters to their own conclusions, British comics have not garnered such attention. Nolan’s Batman, Raimi’s Spiderman and the Supermen of Donner and Singer have their own unique identity; the depth of the mythology of these superheroes allows numerous interpretations, and some of the most interesting re-imaginings of our own myths and legends have occurred on the screen as well as on the page.

Ross McCall: The Everyday Guy Amidst the L.A. Insanity of "Crash"
22 November 2009 8:12 PM, PST | The Hollywood Interview | See recent The Hollywood Interview news »
(Ross McCall and Eric Roberts, left, in "Crash.")
By Terry Keefe
(This article is currently appearing in this month's Venice Magazine.)
It isn’t necessarily great news for an actor to hear that the television series they’ve been starring in is going to be “retooled” in its second season. Your character can be retooled right out the door. Or, it can develop significantly. The latter has fortunately been the case for actor Ross McCall, who has been playing Kenny Battalgia on “Crash” for both of its two seasons. Earlier in the year, veteran producer and writer Ira Steven Behr (“Deep Space Nine”) was brought on as the new show runner, and he merged Kenny’s storyline with that of billionaire Seth Blanchard, the billionaire played by Eric Roberts in the new season, and the major plot focus. Blanchard has a spiritual reawakening which causes him to forgo the building of a new L. »

10 Most Overrated Young Actors
13 October 2009 7:18 PM, PDT | The Movie Fanatic | See recent The Movie Fanatic news »
We've listed down our top 50 hottest young actors and would be coming up with the latest updates very soon. Yesterday, we discussed about actors we believed to be quite underrated. How about the young actors we consider overrated? That's what this article is for...
- - -
- - -
Who qualifies as overrated? Guys who seem to be getting lots of buzz, but has no real talent at all, or perhaps just a small amount of it. I have no issue if an actor gets the cover of GQ or Details or L'Uomo Vogue every month. They can even strut their stuff on the catwalks of Milan and Paris and gain additional media mileage. But to be considered the hottest actor on the planet with nothing to show yet? That is something totally absurd.
Anyway, here's our list of ten just after the jump!

10 Most Underrated Young Actors
12 October 2009 7:54 PM, PDT | The Movie Fanatic | See recent The Movie Fanatic news »
Cinema is filled with multi-talented young actors who bring to life all types of characters. Sometimes, a role is given to the wrong guy - just because he has the looks (pin-up pretty, looks awesome wearing trunks) and the connection (a powerful talent agent at his side). But when the role is given to the right guy - moviegoers get to witness something unique, memorable and powerful, even magical. Anyway, even the 'right guy' needs an agent, of course...
- - -
- - - Underrated versus Overrated: If you've watched Jumper, then you'll notice the difference between Jamie Bell and Hayden Christensen - Bell has undeniable screen presence, I can't say the same with Hayden. It could have been different if Tom Sturridge was retained to play Hayden's part. Anyway, who am I to argue? Christensen has more box office appeal than the relatively unknown Sturridge, but acting-wise?

Books do furnish a life

When I get a little money I buy books; and if any is left I buy food and clothes. -- Erasmus
One afternoon in Cape Town I sat in my little room at University House and took inventory. This must have been in June, winter in the southern hemisphere, and it had been raining steadily for most of a week. I was virtually alone in the student residence; the others had packed off for vacation. With an umbrella and plastic slicker I'd ventured out once or twice to the Pig and Whistle, where I favored the Ploughman's Lunch, but to sustain life I'd laid in a supply of tinned sardines, cheddar and swiss cheese, Hob Nobs, apples, Carr's Water Biscuits, ginger cookies, Hershey bars, biltong, sausage and a pot of jam. I had a little electric coil that would bring a cup of water to a boil, a jar of Nescafe, »

tMF Featured Trailer: Awaydays

ScreenTerrier just posted the casting news featuring Liam Boyle and Alfie Allen, both young actors are cast in "a film adaptation of Kevin Sampson's rock and roll novel "Powder" about a small time band that makes it big in the music industry and succumbs to all the evils it has to offer." [ more from ScreenTerrier ]

I've watched Green Street Hooligans (Charlie Hunnam was superb!) because I love football and I'm fascinated of the sub-culture created by many football fans. Awaydays seem to have a similar theme and so, it piqued my curiosity...

Reusable Snack Bag Round-Up: Plastic Baggies Be Gone!
4 October 2009 7:00 AM, PDT | People - CelebrityBabies | See recent People - CelebrityBabies news »
Green Street Bags
I’ll be the first to admit it — I’m rather dependent on little, plastic, zip-top bags. Gasp! I know. Not anymore! These amazing, reusable bags make it easy to pack and carry goodies for all snack-worthy occasions. And with all kinds of sizes and styles available, I’ll never need another plastic bag again!
Green Street Bags
Simple, sweet, and so easy to use. That’s what I love most about Green Street snack and sandwich bags ($7, pictured above). A strip of Velcro across the top keeps snacks contained and food-safe nylon lines the little cotton bags. »
