Josh Brolin Hooked On Pedicures
1 hour ago | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Movie star Josh Brolin has become a big fan of pedicures after getting serious about his grooming in preparation for his role as a billionaire in Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.
The No Country For Old Men star admits he developed a love for foot rubs and nail care on the set of the 2010 film - and it has stuck with him ever since.
He says, "I thought it was, like, a billionaire mentality thing to do. It's not really cool where I'm from - kinda the country and cowboy thing... but the pedis I still do, bro.
"Where I'm from... guys sit and watch TV and they kinda eat their nails off their foot and it's just not really that cool."
And he has even treated himself to a call-out foot expert: "After (new film) Men In Black 3, I got me some cash and I got me a travelling pedi-ist... and I get myself some $30 pedis."
But Brolin insists his foot lady has no idea who he is: "I'm, like, the goatee guy. They're like, 'Scary Josh is coming in, get ready. Give him a deal.'" »
Cannes: Andrew Dominik On The Violence, Politics & Look Of 'Killing Them Softly' With Brad Pitt
8 hours ago | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
In what turned out to be a banner year for the movies in 2007, "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" ended up somewhat overshadowed. As fellow neo-Westerns "There Will Be Blood" and "No Country For Old Men" swept up plaudits and Oscars, the picture, the second by Australian director Andrew Dominik, was plagued by post-production battles and an indifferent release by Warner Bros., which saw it come and go to in theaters fairly quickly in limited release. But by decade's end, many had since rediscovered the picture as one of the finest of the '00s, and as such, Dominik's first film since, crime tale "Killing Them Softly," was one of the most eagerly anticipated pictures of the Cannes Film Festival this year.
Based on the novel "Cogan's Trade" by George V. Higgins, the film is a politically charged thriller about the fall-out when two junkies rob a protected, »

Paul Thomas Anderson Screened Scientology-Inspired The Master For Tom Cruise
23 May 2012 7:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
While I don't bow at the feet of Paul Thomas Anderson like many of my fellow film journalists out there, I freely admit that the guy makes excellent films and, in retrospect, There Will Be Blood probably deserved the Oscar over No Country For Old Men back in 2008. (But let's not get into That whole argument again.)
Anderson's next film, The Master, is said to be inspired by L. Ron Hubbard and the creation of Scientology as a religion. In the movie, Philip Seymour Hoffman plays the creator of his own religion, and his character reportedly bears many similarities to Hubbard. Anderson, who worked with famous Scientologist Tom Cruise on 1999's Magnolia, decided to show Cruise an early cut of the film, presumably to gauge his reaction since the Church of Scientology has been, shall we say, a bit wary of the film.
The Wrap reports that Cruise "had issues »

Men in Black III (review)
22 May 2012 2:50 PM, PDT | www.flickfilosopher.com | See recent FlickFilosopher news »
That old canard is right: comedy is not easy. Science fiction comedy is even less easy. Which is why there are so few examples merely of attempts, and, of course, far fewer actual successes. In this tiny subgenre, 1997’s Men in Black -- about extraterrestrial refugees living amongst the population of New York City, and the ultra-top-secret law enforcement agency that polices them -- remains a standout, and not just because it has scant competition. And yet its sequel, 2002’s Men in Black II, is lazy, obvious, and doesn’t even trust the wisdom of its predecessor, which wraps up the story of Tommy Lee Jones’s Agent K beautifully, ending with sending him off into a well-deserved retirement. Cheaply and needlessly, Mibii tries to rewind K’s life-tale to haul him back into a service he was more than ready to leave. The sequel ends up negating the poignancy »

‘Out of the Furnace’ Draws ‘The Fighter’ Comparisons As Producers Talk Pittsburgh Shoot; To Arrive Fall 2013
22 May 2012 8:30 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
The drama Out of the Furnace seems like a hot commodity right now. It sports a stellar cast that includes Christian Bale and Casey Affleck in the lead roles, and Zoe Saldana, Willem Dafoe and Woody Harrelson in the supporting cast, as well as backing from celebrity production companies like Leonardo DiCaprio’s Appian Way and Ridely Scott’s Scott Free. The film is currently being shot in western Pa, and on Sunday, executive producer Jeff Waxman, producer/production coordinator Julie Hartley, and various crew members spoke at a Pa Film Industry Association meeting in Pittsburgh, giving some insight to the project. We were there and one can see details below.
During the talk, Waxman repeatedly compared the film to The Fighter, which also featured Bale in an Oscar-winning performance. In past reports, Furnace was said to have a “No Country For Old Men vibe,” so this new development changes some expectations. »

Review: 'Men In Black 3' Is A Surprisingly Decent Return To Form For The Flagging Franchise
21 May 2012 9:05 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Much has been made of the herculean efforts it took to get “Men in Black 3” to the big screen – the constant rewrites, the lengthy hiatus, Will Smith’s giant trailers pissing off much of lower Manhattan – so the mere fact that “Men in Black 3” is watchable at all is something of a pleasant surprise. What’s downright shocking is how enjoyable “Men in Black 3” actually is – it’s an agreeably loopy, visually sumptuous, intermittently clever sci-fi comedy that does much to erase the bad memories of 2002’s wretched “Men in Black II,” easing back into the deadpan weirdness that made the original film so much fun.
The basic premise of “Men in Black” (as teased out in two feature films, an animated series, and a ride at Universal Studios where you fire ray guns at intergalactic foes), is that there are aliens living among us and the Men in Black, »

Ridley Scott talks Blade Runner as original screenwriter Hampton Fancher enters negotiations
21 May 2012 6:25 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
All eyes may be on Ridley Scott's Alien prequel Prometheus as its June release date rapidly approaches, but Scott is already gearing up for a return to another of his former sci-fi glories, the 1982 cult classic Blade Runner, and Deadline are reporting that screenwriter Hampton Fancher - who was responsible for co-writing the first film alongside David Peoples (Unforgiven, Twelve Monkeys) - is currently in negotiations to pen the screenplay.
Production company Alcon Entertainment are now acknowledging that the new Blade Runner movie will be a sequel that takes place "some years after the first film concluded", and Scott has spoken briefly about his plans for the movie in an interview with The Daily Beast: "Funny enough, I started my first meetings on the Blade Runner sequel last week. We have a very good take on it. And we’ll definitely be featuring a female protagonist."

Comic Review: Justice League #9
20 May 2012 1:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Tyrants!
Justice League #9 features the return of Jim Lee on pencils and the beginning of the new featuring freshman villain Graves who’s had a few cameos in the past few Jl issues. Sorry, but the name ‘Graves’ doesn't inspire much terror in me. But then again, I made fun of Anton Chigurh’s retro haircut in No Country for Old Men, and by the end of the first trailer he scared the crap out of me! So let’s see where this issue takes us, shall we?
Review:
We start with a flashback four years ago, where we find an enfeebled Graves near death as his doctor tells him to make his final arrangements. The whole time, Graves rants about how the Justice League can’t help him and how they are not gods. So he kills his doctor and sets out to show the world that the League are not gods. »

Daniel Craig's Bond is back in the Skyfall teaser poster
20 May 2012 9:16 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
With the first trailer for Skyfall due to arrive this coming Monday (May 21st), 007.com has released a rather splendid teaser poster for Daniel Craig's third outing as super spy James Bond...
So far, little is known about the plot for 007's 23rd outing, save for a rather basic synopsis that suggests Skyfall will see "Bond’s loyalty to M [Judi Dench] is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost."
There were rumours late last year that the arrival of Academy Award-winning director Sam Mendes (American Beauty) would mark a change in direction for the series, shifting the emphasis from large-scale action set pieces towards more character-driven performances in pursuit of Oscar glory. Mendes has certainly assembled plenty of quality acting talent for his first Bond feature, with the returning Daniel Craig »

Cannes 2012: Lawless Review
19 May 2012 4:11 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
They say that all gangster movies are really western films in disguise with pinstripe suits and tommy guns replacing long duffel coats and holsters but in John Hillcoat’s new prohibition-era movie “Lawless”, never have the two genres meshed so well on our screens.
Shockingly violent, chaotic and frequently bloody, “Lawless” just debuted in the Lumiere theatre at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival to the biggest reception of any movie that has played so far. Simply put – it was awesome fun, a movie Sam Peckinpah would have been proud of making in his prime and although this isn’t a prestigious effort by any means, it is tremendous entertainment.
Just like the Aussie filmmaker’s previous works “The Proposition” and “The Road”, though falling less on lyricism and more with a willingness to please a popcorn audience, Hillcoat once again presents us a moralistic tale about the »

Cannes film festival set to honour the bookworm
18 May 2012 4:11 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Coveted Palme d'Or likely to go to a screen adaptation, with many of this year's entrants borrowing from literature
The Cannes festival is, famously, the keeper of the flame of the auteur tradition. The ritual of honouring the overarching vision of a single writer-director is entrenched in its history – from Federico Fellini and Michelangelo Antonioni to Jane Campion and Andrea Arnold. Since the turn of the millennium, only two winners of the Palme d'Or have been literary adaptations: Roman Polanski's The Pianist, and Laurent Cantet's The Class. Of the remaining films, only one – Ken Loach's The Wind that Shakes the Barley – was not written by its director.
This year, however, things are different: it is a bookworm's Cannes, with directors as likely to have had their noses buried in novels as dreaming up original ideas.
All eyes are on Walter Salles's adaptation of Jack Kerouac's modern classic On the Road, »

Ridley Scott Hopes To Do A 'Prometheus' Sequel Next; New Viral Clip Featuring Noomi Rapace's Elizabeth Shaw & More Photos
17 May 2012 4:59 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
There's only a few weeks left before all the mystery that shrouds Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" is whisked away with the film's theatrical release. The movie is reaching 'Dark Knight' levels of hysteria, and as you may have noticed, it's been regularly filling up the Playlist home page. A new profile with The Hollywood Reporter now sheds a little more light on the film and Scott's upcoming plans to get your interest further piqued.
While the plan for a sequel to the upcoming film isn't news, THR now notes that the project is something Scott "hopes will come next," presumably after "The Counselor." Lensing on the latter will begin this fall with a star-studded cast including Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Cameron Diaz and Penelope Cruz for what Scott describes as "'No Country For Old Men' on steroids." Could the "Prometheus" sequel be happening straight after that? »

Aaron Sorkin Will Write Sony’s Steve Jobs Biopic
15 May 2012 6:54 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
After a "maybe" and a "strongly considering" in late 2011, Aaron Sorkin has committed to write Sony's Steve Jobs biopic, adapting Walter Isaacson's authorized, celebrated, not-at-all-skimpy biography. Scott Rudin (The Social Network, Moneyball, No Country for Old Men) is producing, awards are being very preemptively readied, and the Kutcher-as-Jobs indie pic is already being forgotten. (Sorry. That's mean. But so is Ashton.) »

Josh Brolin May Play Erin Brockovich-Style Lawyer Who Stood Up To Ford
15 May 2012 10:11 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
If what I'm hearing turns out to be true, Josh Brolin is poised to steal Men In Black III right out from under his higher-profile co-star Will Smith, playing the younger version of Tommy Lee Jones's Agent K in what already looks like a damn good impression. Of course, this would be far from the first time Josh Brolin showed up in an ensemble film and blew everybody away, from his terse Llewellyn Moss in No Country for Old Men to his Oscar-nominated turn as Dan White in Milk. But once again Brolin's turn as second-banana may be leading to an even bigger role, and this time a starring one. Over at Showbiz 411, they're hearing that the Ford-Firestone lawsuits of 2000 may become fodder for a movie, adapted from Adam Penenberg's book Tragic Indifference. Josh Brolin could play the Erin Brockovich-style lawyer who stuck up for the victims »
Cameron Diaz Coming Aboard Ridley Scott’s The Counselor
9 May 2012 9:19 PM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
First original Cormac McCarthy screenplay described as “No Country For Old Men on steroids.”
Get used to the fact that any morsel of information coming out of the production of Cormac McCarthy’s first original screenplay, The Couselor, is going to get the twin-spotlight treatment here at the Complex. If there are any projects in the works anywhere in Hollywood that are more important to the gang here, I have yet to be informed about it.
To quickly bring you up to speed. Ridley Scott will be directing the film, which has already been confirmed to star Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, Penelope Cruz, and McCarthy movie alum Javier Bardem. What we know so far is that the story revolves around the Fassbender character, an attorney who has decided to go fucking around in the drug business, with likely grim results. A Deadline reporter claims the project has been described to »
