Hello ladies and gentlemen, Since I didn't get to bring you news from yesterday I figured that I would combine today's and yesterday's news (3 stories from each day). So here is some movie news with some of my thoughts and opinions (which will be in BOLD print). So without further ado...

Following the launch of the new interactive site, Paramount Pictures has now brought online the new trailer for Christopher Nolan's Interstellar which you can view at the official site site using the date of the Apollo 11 Moon landing date of July 20, 1969... 7201969
Interstellar chronicles the adventures of a group of explorers who make use of a newly discovered wormhole to surpass the limitations on human space travel and conquer the vast distances involved in an interstellar voyage.
Opening in theaters and IMAX on November 7, Interstellar Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Ellen Burstyn, John Lithgow, Michael Caine, Casey Affleck, Wes Bentley, Bill Irwin, Mackenzie Foy, Topher Grace and David Gyasi.
This is an awesome trailer. It gives us just a little bit more insight into the movie which has been surrounded in mystery. This film looks to be an instant classic for years to come. This trailer really gets me excited for the film and I cannot wait to see it.
Quentin Tarantino announced at the San Diego Comic-Con last week that he was moving forward on The Hateful Eight, his eighth film, and now The Weinstein Company has released the first poster for the 2015 release.
Set in snowy Wyoming a few years after the Civil War, the film focuses on the tension among a group of people trapped after a blizzard diverts a stagecoach from its route. The group includes a competing pair of bounty hunters, a renegade Confederate soldier and a female prisoner in a saloon.
This is a pretty cool poster. Look I understand why Tarantino was upset about the original script being leaked and not wanting to the movie, but I'm glad he finally came to his senses because this movie sounds awesome. I honestly don't know if I can't long for this film.
Jamie Foxx won an Oscar in 2005 for portraying singer/songwriter Ray Charles in the Taylor Hackford-directed Ray and now he's looking to take on another well-known personality as he enters the boxing ring to portray "Iron" Mike Tyson. According to Variety, Foxx is attached to an untitled biopic on the controversial sports star that's being put together and produced by Foxx's manager Rick Yorn with Emmy-winning and Oscar-nominated screenwriter Terence Winter ("The Sopranos," The Wolf of Wall Street) writing the screenplay.
So far, the project doesn't have a distributor although there should be a lot of interest in the project once all the t's are crossed and i's are dotted, mainly due to the popularity Tyson has achieved not only in his heyday as a boxer which took him to the very top of the sport, but also following a fall from grace that included six years of prison for rape, and subsequent charges of driving while drunk and drug possession after the death of his daughter and filing for bankruptcy.
In recent years, Tyson's life has turned around with notable appearances in hit movies like The Hangover, a one-man show that played in Vegas and on Broadway as well as a bestselling memoir called "Undisputed Truth." It hasn't been reported whether the memoir might be used as a basis for the film or how much of Tyson's life will be covered in this biopic nor whether another actor might play the younger Tyson.
Winter is coming off his Oscar nomination for adapting Jordan Belfort's tell-all Wall Street book The Wolf of Wall Street into a hit film for Martin Scorsese.
This sounds really interesting. I really enjoyed both Jamie Foxx as Ray Charles in Ray and I personally loved what Terrence Winter did with the script for The Wolf of Wall Street and I'm really curious to see how this film will turn out. Mike Tyson has a lot of interesting things to cover and it'll be great to see how these two work together.

Warning: Potential spoilers for Guardians of the Galaxy below.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy opens today, but last weekend at San Diego Comic-Con they already announced a release date for a follow-up, Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Speaking with FilmDivider (via /Film), Gunn spoke about already having plans for the sequel and which characters we would be learning more about: "I know a lot of where I want to go. I have a lot of ideas for stories and characters that are going to appear, and there are documents written up, that some people have, about Peter Quill's father and his relationship, a lot of stuff about Yondu and a lot of stuff about Drax that nobody knows....There are a lot of things that are part of the overall schematic that already exist, not to mention a lot of stuff about all of the cultures. There’s a lot of stuff about Xandarian and Kree culture that I’ve written down or I have in my head, as well as Krylorians and Ravagers."
Gunn also elaborated on his plans, indicating which characters he thought would be important to the sequel. "Kevin Feige has stuff. I wrote up a lot. He knows all the stuff and if I died tomorrow they could go make a movie. They could write the story of Peter Quill's father and it would all be there. I think Yondu is a very important character, a really important character in this universe, and I think Nebula is really important too and so I think we'll see more of both of those characters."
Guardians of the Galaxy opens in theaters tonight while its follow-up is scheduled to debut July 28, 2017.
This is really good to hear. I'm really glad that James Gunn is back to direct the second film and he'll be able to expand on his vision a little bit more. I haven't seen Guardians of the Galaxy just yet but it looks really awesome and I'm excited to see where this franchise goes.
Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies have debuted the trailer for The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, coming to theaters on February 13, 2015! Check it out below! In the film, SpongeBob SquarePants, the world's favorite sea dwelling invertebrate, comes ashore to our world for his most super-heroic adventure yet. The movie is based on the series created by Stephen Hillenburg. Starring are Antonio Banderas, Tom Kenny, Clancy Brown, Rodger Bumpass, Bill Fagerbakke, Carolyn Lawrence and Douglas Lawrence.
Just to be bluntly honest this trailer looks kinda cool. I'm mean the film is going to suck, but I'm still going to give it a shot. I mean the film looks like it could be fun ( I use to love Spongebob when I was younger) but the film looks a little to cheesy but like I said I'll give the film a shot.
Walt Disney Pictures has debuted the first trailer for director Rob Marshall's Into the Woods, hitting theaters this Christmas and starring Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, James Corden, Anna Kendrick, Chris Pine, Johnny Depp, Lilla Crawford, Daniel Huttlestone, Tracey Ullman, Christine Baranski, MacKenzie Mauzy, Billy Magnussen, Tammy Blanchard, Lucy Punch, Richard Glover, Frances de la Tour, Simon Russell Beale, Joanna Riding and Annette Crosbie.
Into the Woods is a modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters' wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel—all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.
This is a great little teaser. I've been hearing really god things about the film and this teaser reassures those statements. I feel that this is perfect for Disney and this fits well with Director Rob Marshall and his style. I'm actually really excited to see this film.
So there you have it ladies and gentlemen, which of these stories peaked your interest or was there another story that interested you? Let me know in the comments section below and let your voice be heard.
