A second trailer for Cowboys & Aliens premiered during American Idol last night, the Jon Favreau-directed sci-fi Western, starring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford, opens July 29.  This is a revealing look, but doesn’t spoil.  If you saw the previous trailer and the Super Bowl spot, you’ve seen it.  Truth be told, I’ll see anything with Sam Rockwell, so I’m there for this one.  Enjoy.

Click for cowboy.

Jon Favreau‘s next film, Cowboys & Aliens has a poster, and it’s great.  We will have a trailer on Wednesday so consider this a tease.  I love the old rifle and futuristic wrist gun (?) coming together on our cowboy character.

Cowboys & Aliens is written by Roberto Orci (Star Trek (2009)) & Alex Kurtzman & Damon Lindelof and directed by Jon Favreau. It stars Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde, Sam Rockwell and Paul Dano. The film will be released on July 29, 2011.

Yahoo! gave us the poster and this synopsis: (more…)

Iron Man 3 Arrives May 3, 2013

Tuesday, October 19th, 2010

Iron Man 3Walt Disney Pictures has set the release date for Iron Man 3 for May 3, 2013.  I have yet to see the sequel; something tells me I won’t like it – it sounds like one long commercial for the upcoming Avengers movie.  Iron Man 3 would come out almost one year after The Avengers, which is slated for May 4, 2012.

It’s said all the actors who signed on for Iron Man 2, signed multi-picture deals so Marvel and Disney can choose who they want to bring back.  The biggest question is whether Jon Favreau will direct.  Favreau has already said that if he returns, he would like The Mandarin to be Iron Man 3′s villain.

How Indy lost his Fedora.

I didn’t know what Cowboys & Aliens was until this news broke, I guess I should drop those Sweet Valley High books and pick up a graphic novel sometime.  So it goes, an extraterrestrial species lands in Arizona  in the mid-1800s. The aliens plan to quash the Wild West and enslave humanity, but the cowboys and native Apache have other plans.  Pfft, they are just pulling headlines from the paper now.  Jon Favreau (Director of Iron Man, and Pete Becker on Friends) is directing.

Robert Downey Jr. was initially in talks to star as Zeke Jackson, but the role has gone to Daniel Craig due to scheduling issues for Downey.  Today Favreau confirmed that Harrison Ford has been cast in the film.

Here is what he tweeted: @Jon_Favreau: Please stop asking if Harrison Ford is in Cowboys & Aliens. Okay? He is. Please don’t tell anybody.

More on the novel here.  What do you think about Ford involvement with the project?  And can we trust this tweet is from Jon?  What if one of his kids decided to mess with his laptop?

Iron Man is back in action — and this time, he brought some new friends.  The trailer is here and the movie won’t be until May 7th 2010. So enjoy this, you may begin to rock out as I did.  It looks like it will once again be a lot of fun and doesn’t have to take a backseat (rightfully so) to a Batman movie later on in the summer.  Blink and you might miss Sam Jackson.  Here are the high definition links: 480p, 720p, 1080p.
