MTV Movie Award Nominations Are Out! Twilight in Most Categories.

March 29, 2010

MTV2010MovieAwardsVoting for the annual MTV movie awards has begun. This year in addition to the standard categories, MTV has added three new categories: Global Superstar, Best Ass-Kicking Star and Best Scared-as-Sh– Performance.

Here’s how the nominations panned out. We think we did pretty well on our predictions! BUT we think we can do better by using the write in feature that comes at the bottom of each category!

Best Movie: New Moon

Best Female Performance: Kristen Stewart (competing against herself in New Moon and The Runaways, and Dakota is nominated for The Runaways.)

Best Male Performance: Taylor Lautner (with competition from Rob in Remember Me,  well…this is going to be interesting.)

Breakthrough Female Performance: Woo Hoo! Go Anna Kendrick for Up In the Air!

Breakthrough Male Performance: Taylor Lautner is not there? Is it because they put him in last year against Robert Pattinson? Time to use that write in feature!

Best Villain: Neither Michael Sheen nor Dakota Fanning made it. Time to use that write in feature, again!

Best Kiss: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart (However competition from Dakota and Kristen in The Runaways, Rob and Emilie in Remember Me, and Taylor and Taylor in Valentine’s Day)

Best Fight: WOAH! Daniel Cudmore and Robert Pattinson didn’t make it. Time to use that write in feature one more time!

Best Ass Kicking Star: Daniel Cudmore could use a little love here, use that write in in this new category!

Best Global Superstar: Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Robert Pattinson (Holy Way To Split The Vote, Batman!)

Best Song: In a shocker move, the category is eliminated!

So get over to MTV and get voting!

James Woods Scouting Locations For Movie With Kristen Stewart

March 29, 2010

According to Buffalo station WGRZ, to actor/director James Woods is scouting locations in the Buffalo, NY area to film a movie called American Girl starring Kristen Stewart.

”

“I was searching for the heartland of America, and I couldn’t think of a better place than Buffalo,” said Woods in an interview with 2 On Your Side’s Stu Boyar. Woods plans to step away from the silver screen and take on the roles of director and producer. The film, entitled An American Girl, is set to star Kristen Stewart, the actress most commonly known for her leading role in the Twilight films. Stewart will play a woman who enlists in the Marines in hopes of finding herself, only to be wounded in the line of duty…”This movie honors all people who stand in harms way for others,” said Woods. “It is a message not told often enough in this industry, and I’m proud to be a part of it.”

Hit Fix: Will Eclipse Make Less Money Than New Moon?

March 29, 2010

eclipsecropSo far the Twilight Saga movies are on the rise. New Moon beat Twilight’s box office total in under 14 days, but what will happen with Eclipse? Frequently, franchise movies aren’t on a constant build. For example the Harry Potter movies have had their ups and downs. Harry Potter and the Socerer’s Stone, the initial movie in the series, remains the best selling Potter movie followed by Half-Blood Prince and Order of the Phoenix. The Prisoner of Azkaban, third in the series, is the least successful at the box office.

Hit Fix examines the possibilities:

“One of the films expected to battle for the summer box office crown or at least place in the top five is the third “Twilight” feature, “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.”  The second installment, “New Moon,” broke the single day all-time opening record with $72 million, is currently the third biggest 3-day opening of all time with $142 million and ended up with $296 million domestic and $707 million worldwide.  And that was all in November when many of the franchise’s younger fans had school on Friday (although let’s assume many of them cut out early).  “Eclipse’s” June 30 release should find those young tween girls out of school and flocking to the theater. Adding more intrigue to the box office gross is that “Eclipse” will also be released in IMAX theaters which feature higher ticket prices.  So, a larger opening weekend is guaranteed right?  No doubt, but what happens after that?”

See more at Hit Fix.

So what do you think?  In our experience, Eclipse tends be the favorite book of many fans of the  series.  It certainly ranks as the favorite book of many of the actors. Will that fuel the box office?

Jackson Rathbone Talks Dread to Movieweb

March 29, 2010

jacksonrathbonedread2Jackson Rathbone covers his role in Dread and his recent stint as a music video director and palns for teh future.

“We talked a bit about the music video you directed. Is that maybe a stepping stone into feature directing for you then?

Jackson Rathbone: Oh, definitely. I’m actually adapting a couple of short stories right now, not for full-length but for short films, so hopefully I can start kind of slowly, get my feet wet, starting to inch my way to that big feature directing, producing and writing. I want to start off adapting and directing those short films and then, hopefully, write and original full-length film and direct it. That’s kind of my plans for next year or the year after. It’s definitely going to happen within the next few years.
Are these short stories anything we might be familiar with?

Jackson Rathbone: Well, right now, I’m kind of in the middle of the option agreements and all that. I can’t really talk about it too much, I don’t want to jinx it. I want to make sure it goes through and get the option, because I’ve already kind of written it (Laughs). Now I’m just waiting to make sure that’s legal.

Finally, what would you like to say to any fans of the horror genre or maybe your Twilight fans about why they should pick up Dread on DVD?

Jackson Rathbone: Well, I think if you want to have a good time with a nice psychological thriller, get a little scared, I think it’s a good movie for your girlfriend too (Laughs). Make her hold you close, that’s always right with a horror film. It’s a great film. If people are interested in checking it out, I’d love it.”

A Runaways and Eclipse Soundtrack Connection?

March 29, 2010

maren-paruselAccording to San Diego News Network legendary music insider and talent finder Kim Fowley is apparently helping Maren Parusel, an up and coming San Diego musician, win a spot on the Eclipse soundtrack. There also may have been a bit of assistance from Kristen Stewart.

“Mario Escovedo, the local talent hound who happens to be the younger brother of Javier Escovedo of ’70s-vintage all-boy rock band The Zeros, reports that “legendary producer” Fowley was in Austin last week for South by Southwest “to promote the movie about how he discovered Joan Jett and The Runaways,” when he “met Maren Parusel unloading equipment in an alley.”

“Two days later she was recording with him in Los Angeles,” remaking her “Ordinary Day,” Escovedo e-mails.

“I’m hearing nothing but good things about the movie,” he adds. “And because of the actress playing Joan Jett, Kim Fowley struck a deal to write some songs for Twilight three.”

So, maybe it’s a shot in the dark and maybe they have a shot, only time will tell because very indie band in town is sending in their pitch.For that matter so are the mainstream ones, Muse seems to have worked their way back on the soundtrack after initial reports that they were off.

Is anyone a fan of Maren Parusel? How would you classify her music?
