Kenny Fucking Powers

Oh yeah baby.  It’s only 5 weeks until Eastbound & Down returns and in honour of that fact HBO has released a new poster.

God damn Danny McBride is fantastic.

Not long until TERRIERS premieres

It looks like FX is going to be adding yet another cool show to its lineup, this time the pretty awesome looking Terriers.

FX says:

Terriers from Creator/Executive Producer Ted Griffin (Ocean’s ElevenMatchstick Men) and Executive Producer Shawn Ryan (The Shield), is a comedic drama starring Donal Logue (The Tao of Steve) and Michael Raymond-James (True Blood).  It centers on “Hank Dolworth” (Logue), an ex-cop, who partners with his best friend “Britt Pollack” (Raymond-James) in an unlicensed private investigation business.  Comedic, edgy, original, a show about high stakes in the face of low expectations, Terriers explores what it’s like in today’s America to be “too small to fail.”  Co-stars include Laura Allen (Dirt) as “Katie,” Britt’s girlfriend; Rockmond Dunbar (Prison Break) as “Detective Mark Gustafson,” former colleague of Hank; and Jamie Denbo (Weeds) as “Maggie Lefferts,” Hank’s attorney. Craig Brewer (Hustle and FlowThe Shield) directed the pilot episode.

Check out the latest poster below and a video which gives you a hint of the tone of the show.  Terriers premieres on September 8th.

Finally, a BLACK SWAN trailer

It’s taken a while but we finally have a trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s next film, Black Swan.

It’s all kinds of cool and it’s seems to be further proof that Aronofsky doesn’t make bad films.  But then how could a film with Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and Vincent Cassel be anything other than awesome.

JACKASS 3D will be the most fun movie of 2010

Oh my God, work has sucked all of my time.  I didn’t realise how long ago it was that I actually posted something.

Anyway, here’s the trailer for Jackass 3D, what will probably turn out to be the most insanely fun film of 2010.  I absolutely love the previous two films and I’m a fan of the original show along with the various spinoffs such as Wildboyz and Viva La Bam.  I can’t wait to see all the guys back together being idiots.

So much fun.

An INCEPTION infographic for the dumb people

This is pretty cool and a useful guide for the dumb people out there who were unable to keep track of the various characters, levels and kicks which filled out this years best film, Inception.

At least Matt Reeves’ name isn’t on this LET ME IN poster

Despite the pretty decent trailer for Let Me In which came out the other day I’m still not convinced that it’s a worthwhile remake or that it’ll be any good.  And I’m a HUGE fan of Chloe Moretz.  It’s just been such a short time since the original Swedish film came out, and it was so damn good, that I can’t see the point in remaking it.  Are audiences so lazy and narrow-minded that they won’t watch a film with subtitles?  I’m starting to think that’s the case what with this remake and the upcoming remake of the amazing The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.  God Hollywood sickens me sometimes.  Come up with something original why don’t you.

Anyway, here’s that latest poster for Let Me In and it’s the first one to not feature Matt Reeves’ name or the fact that he directed Cloverfield in massive type.  Just a nice subtle image.  I love the bare foot footprints.

MONSTERS looks really damn awesome

I love me a good creature feature and Monsters looks pretty damn impressive.

The film takes place six years after NASA discovered the possibility of alien life within our solar system and a probe launched to collect samples crashed over Central America.  Soon after, new life forms began to appear and half of Mexico was quarantined as an INFECTED ZONE.  Today, the American and Mexican military still struggle to contain “the creatures”……  The story begins when a US journalist agrees to escort a shaken tourist through the infected zone in Mexico to the safety of the US border.

If that doesn’t sound cool I don’t know what does.  I’ve read good things about the film since it played at a couple of film festivals in June so I’m hoping it won’t be too long until it arrives here in Oz.

Thank God for Comic-Con and all the awesome trailers

Comic-Con is underway and there’s been a bunch of cool trailers, posters, video game stuff, and movie news.  Below are four trailers for Red, Stone, Tron: Legacy, and a red band Machete one which all came out this week (although I’m not sure if the one for Stone came from Comic-Con.

All four films look pretty damn good to me, and what with these four and trailers for The Town and The Social Network, it’s been a really good week or so for trailers.

Premier dates for BORED TO DEATH and EASTBOUND & DOWN

HBO has set second season premiere for both Bored to Death and Eastbound & Down for September 26th.

Both exceedingly awesome, but underrated, shows will air back to back from 10PM.  Oh man I’m excited about the return of these two shows and I’m hoping and praying that they have fairly successful second seasons so that HBO will be inclined to pick them both up for third seasons.  Fingers crossed.

Fox TV premiere dates are in

Looks like the premiere dates for network TV are starting to arrive along with some cable stuff too.  Fox released their premiere dates the other day and below are the shows I care about.  Top of that list is Glee.

Lonestar (new series) – Monday Sept 20th
Glee (returning) – Tuesday Sept 21st
Running Wilde (new series) – Tuesday Sept 21st
Fringe (returning) – Thursday Sept 23rd

Certainly not many shows on Fox that I care about, but I’m very excited about Glee, Running Wilde and Fringe, and I’m more than a little intrigued by Lonestar.  I guess I’ll find out what they’re all like in a shade under 10 weeks.
