    A surprise announcement at the conference, Don Eklund from Sony Pictures revealed that Sony Pictures will make available for download via BD-Live extra content. The example shown was a video from actor Will Smith regarding his film 'Hancock' with a sneak peak of the film specifically for CES. He did mention that he is a fan of Blu-ray.

  3. Why do people dislike I, Robot?

    I love the movie...millions of people do. It's recent classic. Haters and book nerds can complain all they want. If u ain't got nuttin' nice 2 say...

    Well, if you only want to hear positive opinions about the movie you'll know. That doesn't mean negative opinions are far from the truth. Let's remember we're all WS fans here.

    I said Will's performance is bad because he's trying to be funny in a serious movie, which makes people say he's not really acting, he's just being himself. That's basically due to a bad script. His useless comments (Del Spooner: "You must know my ex-wife"), jokes and all those things make people think the movie is a waste of time because they wanted to see a good (or at least decent) sci-fi movie, and they aren't seeing that at all.

    This is the main reason why almost everyone thinks this movie was bad, and with this I mean critics and movie fans with some taste and knowledge about cinema. I don't pay attention to people that say this movie is good because they loved the special effects. If we don't have a convincing performance, the movie can't be good by any means. And no, there was no chemistry between Will and Bridget at all.

    Of course each one has his opinion, and I respect it. But sometimes things are pretty obvious...

    A Win That Won’t Be Forgotten

    aliyq8.jpg

    DES MOINES (Posted Jan. 4, 2008) – Sen. Barack Obama took time to thank everyone during the V.I.P. reception where they gathered to celebrate his victory before heading to the packed convention center of more than 2,000 people.

    Large-screen televisions in both corners of the room glared as Sen. Hillary Clinton (N.Y.) spoke to the crowd gathered at her headquarters. Obama entered the room and recognized each individual with custom thanks and hugs for their contribution to the big win.

    Actor Hill Harper, from the television show C.S.I. New York, has been on the campaign trail for Obama for months. “This is my third trip to Iowa,” he told me. A native of the state – he was born in Iowa City – he came home to help the candidate he believed in. “He’s the best candidate and it was a resounding victory,” Harper said.

    “We ran the most positive campaign, nothing negative about anybody,” Hill said. Hill focused on reaching out to college student along with friend and fellow actress, Tatyana Ali.

    “I’ve been here three days, reaching out to college students and some high school students too,” Ali said. ‘It went so well, I was knocking door-to-door on dorm rooms all over the state,” she laughed.

    Ali, best known as Ashley on the television show The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, was a political science major, but this was her first experience campaigning for a candidate. “I never felt like this for any candidate; he’s going to lead us into to the next century,” she predicted.

    Both Hill and Ali joined Obama on the stage during his victory speech. The outreach for the younger voters appears to have worked for Obama; he racked up the youth vote 1 to 5.

    Obama told the crowd, “Years from now we’ll look back at this moment and remember this was the place where we believed in hope.”

    Obama’s signature salute was met with cheers and screams, “Change is coming to American.”

    Yes, change is a comin’!

    Max, you asked and I answered. Nothing I say will change your opinion. I think Will shouldn't have made that movie. It was supposed to be a serious movie and it was just a movie with some action and a lot of special effects. But hey, like I said, it's my opinion.

    And BW, that has nothing to do. I've also read I am Legend and I loved the movie although it wasn't exactly like the book. The difference is: in IAL I saw the Robert Neville I was waiting for; in I, Robot I didn't see Del Spooner, just Will Smith.

    Well, the worst script ever? No. One of the worst ones? Yeah.

    Plot holes, bad director, poor performance by Will... Seriously, is that the real Del Spooner? Of course not. Will is just making jokes all the time, making stupid comments. Like I said, bad script.

    Apart from this, the movie is sometimes boring. Great special effects though. I've always said this is a cool movie, not a good movie. Critics say it's one of the worst sci-fi movies of all time, and I agree with them.

  19. What a great movie!

    I went with my Girl Friend to the premier day (as I do every WS movie)... and she was late so we had to go to the next round an hour and a half later ( :thumbdown: ) I made an angry face all that time... and gave her a speech on how WS is important and all that since I was a small kid and in the last 10 years I saw every movie on his first day the first time it was shown.

    I know how you feel dude :lolsign:

    Preview the Hancock Poster!

    I am absolutely geeked on Hancock. Having a non-caring superhero who isn't good at what he does sounds absolutely genius in a moviegoing market filled with comicbook adaptations. There is a ton of fun to be had here, and Hancock looks to do for comicbooks what Mr. and Mrs. Smith did for spy movies.

    Hancock Poster Preview

    The good people at IMPAwards have gotten a low-quality preview of the Hancock poster. Spoofing the Spider-Man posters, I love how Columbia Pictures felt the reflection of the city was necessary on Hancock's oversized glasses too.

    Hancock opens to theatres on July 2nd, 2008.

  25. China Can't Refuse a Little 'Happyness'

    Earlier this month, China imposed a three-month ban on American films. It was said that this decision was influenced by "disagreements with U.S. trade policy and the recent success of American pics at the expense of local films." Foreign influence has been a foremost concern for the country's film industry, and previously, foreign fare had to slip into one of the country's 20-film limit for revenue-sharing. Another 20 could break in at a flat fee, but that's it. With this new ban, foreign fare has been completely blocked -- for the next few months -- which for the most part, means Hollywood fare like the recent Bee Movie and Beowulf. The decision had also blocked The Pursuit of Happyness, which had already cleared Chinese censors and was set for a December release. But now, just a few weeks later, the blackout is being broken.

    The Hollywood Reporter has posted that Happyness will get its shot with a January release. Titled "Happiness Knocks at the Door" there, since that "y" spelling doesn't really translate internationally, the film will hit 350-380 Chinese screens on January 17, 2008. There was no further comment on why this film got an exception, but maybe it was due to the fact that it had already gone through the censor process. Now the Chinese theater owners are anxious to see the blackout broken again, and hope that other imports will soon become allowed. Whether more films will follow remains to be seen. But Merry Christmas Will Smith, your Legend can continue into China with a little Happyness!
