The first leaks we hear about this movie isn't actually about the movie but more so about how beak and miserable Pittsburgh is in winter and how it lends to the overall look of the film. I guess the studio assumes everyone's read the book. Anyways, here are USA Todays exclusives

R.I.P. Bernie Mac

2008-08-09T16:20:00.002-04:00

Emmy, Golden Globe, and Grammy-nominated actor and comedian Bernie Mac died today (August 9) at the age of 50, CNN.com reports.

"Actor/comedian Bernie Mac passed away this morning from complications due to pneumonia in a Chicago area hospital," said his publicist, Danica Smith, in a statement from Los Angeles, California.

His publicist said no other details were available, and that his family's privacy be respected. She also revelaed that the pneumonia was not related to the comedian's sarcoidosis, an inflammatory lung disease; the condition apparently went into remission in 2005.

Mac's comedy career at age eight, with a standup performance at a church dinner. Eventually, he took his act to comedy clubs in Chicago at age 20, in 1977.

He began his film career with a small role in Damon Wayans' Mo' Money in 1992. Since then, he has appeared in Spike Lee's 1996 drama Get on the Bus, the Ocean's Eleven series, and numerous other films.

Bernie Mac also had a self-titled television show, which aired more than 100 episodes from 2001 to 2006. "The Bernie Mac Show," which told the story of a man raising his sister's three children, won a Peabody Award in 2002. The judges wrote that the sitcom transcended "race and class while lifting viewers with laughter, compassion -- and cool."

"But television handcuffs you, man," said Mac in 2001 Associated Press interview. "Now everyone telling me what I CAN'T do, what I CAN say, what I SHOULD do, and asking, 'Are blacks gonna be mad at you? Are whites gonna accept you?"'

Mac was also a part of the critically acclaimed comedy album and movie The Original Kings of Comedy, in which he co-starred with Steve Harvey, D.L. Hughley and Cedric The Entertainer. The album garnered a Grammy nomination for best comedy album in 2001.

In 2007 during an interview on CBS' "Late Show" with Dave Letterman, Mac revealed that he had plans to retire soon. "I'm going to still do my producing, my films, but I want to enjoy my life a little bit," said Mac to Letterman. "I missed a lot of things, you know. I was a street performer for two years. I went into clubs in 1977."

Mac survived by a daughter, Je'Niece, and wife, Rhonda McCullough. Je'Niece has a daughter, Jasmine.

Bernie, a 12 year old on the verge of manhood is anticipating the biggest day of his life being everything he's ever dream of being, but his first lesson in his new adult life is that things sometimes go according to plan.

Heres the write up:

England, the summer of ‘66 and the country is about to be consumed by World Cup Fever. For 12-year-old Bernie (GREGG SULKIN), the biggest day of his life is looming, the day he becomes a man - his Bar Mitzvah. However Bernie’s North London family seems a little distracted. His father Manny (EDDIE MARSAN) is concerned about the giant supermarket opening opposite his grocery shop, a business he shares with his more charismatic younger brother, Jimmy (PETER SERAFINOWICZ) — and it’s making Manny’s bizarre obsessive compulsive disorder even worse than usual. Between worrying about Manny and Bernie’s older brother Alvie (BEN NEWTON), mother Esther (HELENA BONHAM CARTER) barely has time to notice her better behaved younger son, and the only attention Bernie ever gets from Alvie is a punch for stepping onto the wrong side of their shared bedroom. Bernie believes his Bar Mitzvah is about to change all this. He’ll no longer be the kid everyone ignores, and he envisions and begins to plan the perfect ceremony and reception, where everyone assembled will acknowledge his new status as a man. Unfortunately for Bernie, things don’t quite go according to plan.

Avery Allan Ludlow (Brian Cox), a Korean War vet with a tragic past, lives alone in a small town, where he runs the local hardware store. Av’s only companion is a 14 year-old ginger-haired dog, aptly named Red by Av’s late wife. One day, Av and Red are enjoying a placid outing at their favorite fishing spot when three boys and a shotgun come along. In an instant, Av’s lifelong friend is gone, the victim of a cruel, senseless act. Devastated, Av determines to find out who the boys are and why they did it. Helped by a local reporter (Dickens), Av tries to expose the truth, but his efforts are ignored by authorities and mocked by the teenagers. The boys’ parents, a rich local businessman (Sizemore) and, across town, a hardscrabble laborer (Englund) and his wife (Plummer), are just as determined to keep Av down. But, faithful to the memory of his best friend, Av single-mindedly presses for justice-with or without the law on his side.

In Search Of A Midnight Kiss

2008-07-25T12:13:00.003-04:00

Release Date : August 1st 2008
Craigs List gets a nod in this movie, as a young man lays it all on the line to find love before New Years Eve. Its shot in black and white and has a semi documentaryt feel to it, reminds me of Spike Lee's "She's Gotta Have It" without Mars. This movie will have a few laughs in it so if your into finding romance before a certain hour, go see this flick... Who knows? You may be in love before the credits role.

Heres the write up:

From emerging, award-winning filmmaker Alex Holdridge and the producer of BEFORE SUNRISE and DAZED AND CONFUSED, IN SEARCH OF A MIDNIGHT KISS is a funny and bittersweet look at love, sex, and modern romance. With an unsold script, no concrete plans, and a love life reduced to getting caught in compromising positions (alone!), a twenty-nine-year aspiring writer, Wilson (Scoot McNairy) just had the worst year of his life. That is until his best friend, Jacob (Brian Matthew McGuire), browbeats him into posting a personal ad for New Year’s Eve on Craig’s List. When Vivian (Sara Simmonds), a sexy, sarcastic, and seemingly blind-date-from-hell responds, the two strangers embark on an unexpected, chaotic, and hilariously awkward journey through the black-and-white streets of Los Angeles hoping to meet the right one before the stroke of midnight. A truly original love letter to Los Angeles, IN SEARCH OF A MIDNIGHT KISS captures a lost downtown rarely seen on screen along with the hearts of critics and audiences alike.

Felon

2008-07-25T12:02:00.004-04:00

This trailer takes me back to a great movie. American History X starring Ed Norton. (awesome flick) Although I dont see the racial overtones in this movie, the guy kills a trespasser and ends up in jail, where he has to adjust or get adjusted. Same premise. Anyways, Heres the write up:

Val Kilmer (Columbus Day, Conspiracy), Stephen Dorff (Black Water Transit, World Trade Center), Harold Perrineau, Jr. (The Matrix Revolutions, TV’s “Lost”) and Sam Shepard (The Accidental Husband, Stealth) star in the high-action and edge-of-your-seat prison film, Felon, the story of a family man who is convicted of murder for killing an intruder who enters his home, threatening the lives of his wife and son. As he struggles to survive the violent penal system which includes a maximum-security state prison in which a corrupt lieutenant tries to maintain power and order, even if it means crossing the line. Also starring Anne Archer (End Game, Man of the House).

Ludacris in the movies

2008-07-21T16:09:00.002-04:00

BEVERLY HILLS—Move over Reggie Jackson there’s a new Mr. October on the scene.
Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, who has made just under 10 feature films since making his big-screen debut in “The Wash,” will have two movies bowing on the same day in October. I caught up with Bridges at the recent Television Critics Association press tour where he was promoting his new Green Planet TV show “Battleground Earth: Ludacris vs. Tommy Lee.”
“It’s important to let you know that both ‘RocknRolla,’ which is the Guy Ritchie movie and ‘Max Payne,’ both come out on Oct. 17,” Bridges said. “Yes, so you can call me Mr. October, that’s my new name! And then the album called ‘Theater of the Mind’ is coming out the Tuesday after that.”
After receiving critical praise for his roles in “Crash,” “Hustle & Flow,” and “Fred Claus,” what gives the ATL-based rapper more pleasure these days—music or movies?
“It’s still a little bit of both,” he said. “I still feel like I’m still a little new to the movie game. I know that sounds crazy but I’ve been doing music my whole entire life. I’m very passionate about music but the challenge for the movies is starting to become addictive. Me taking on different roles, I’m just trying to find out where my limitations are and I’m starting to realize that I have more talent than I even realized I had in the acting game. So, with that being said, it’s like it’s both.”

'Dark Knight' Shatters Opening-Day Mark

2008-07-20T12:37:00.008-04:00

The Dark Knight banked an astonishing $66.4 mil on Friday to set a new record for the biggest opening-day gross in box office history. The old mark of $59.8 mil was achieved by Spider-Man 3 in 2007. That film went on to earn $151.1 mil over the course of its first three-day frame, a sum that The Dark Knight now appears able to match.

Early Friday, the second Batman movie from star Christian Bale and director Christopher Nolan also broke the record for the most money earned in midnight screenings, taking in $18.5 mil from shows that started at 12:01 a.m. Check in to EW.com on Sunday for a full weekend recap.

I think we all expected this with all the hype, mystery, and death surrounding this installment of the Batman movies. I also think it'll go on to beat all of Spidey's records this time. All I'm hearing is good things from the midnight going, Joker-make up wearing, fans of this dark comic book hero.

Drama
Rating: Not yet rated
TWILIGHT is an action-packed, modern day love story between a vampire and a human. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school. When her mother remarries and sends Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she doesn’t expect much of anything to change. Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), a boy unlike any she’s ever met. Intelligent and witty, he sees straight into her soul. Soon, Bella and Edward are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance. Edward can run faster than a mountain lion, he can stop a moving car with his bare hands - and he hasn’t aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he’s immortal. But he doesn’t have fangs, and he doesn’t drink human blood; Edward and his family are unique among vampires in their lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. But what will Edward & Bella do when James (Cam Gigandet), Laurent (Edi Gathegi) and Victoria (Rachelle Lefevre), the Cullens’ mortal vampire enemies, come to town, looking for her?
