10 Most Fascinating 'End of the World' Movies
10 hours ago | The Movie Fanatic | See recent The Movie Fanatic news »
There are many theories, ideas or should I say 'schools of thought' on how the world would end. At the height of the Cold War, nuclear annihilation ranks at the very top. While others argue it will not be man who will destroy the world (directly) but - an epidemic of global proportions (most probably from a potent strain of virus - think: I am Legend) or severe climactic change (another ice age perhaps? That would be Day After Tommorow right?) or mechanical uprising (The Terminator, anyone?) or even attack from the outside - conquering aliens (Mars Attacks!) or perhaps an asteroid. And let's not forget zombies!

Douglas 'Touched' By Film Honour From Schwarzenegger
7 November 2009 6:06 AM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Kirk Douglas was stunned to be presented with a top movie award by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on Thursday night - because he coached the muscleman on his first ever film.
The veteran actor was handed the Britannia Award for Worldwide Contribution to Filmed Entertainment at the 2009 BAFTA/La Britannia Awards in Los Angeles.
Douglas was touched to receive the honour from Schwarzenegger, as he has fond memories of working with the star on 1979 movie The Villain.
In a post on his personal MySpace page, Douglas writes, "Sometimes I think that if you live long enough you get all the awards. But last night was something special. I received the BAFTA/La award for Worldwide Contribution to Filmed Entertainment. What was special about it was that Governor Schwarzenegger drove down from Sacramento to present it to me. That was very thoughtful.
"I worked with Arnold Schwarzenegger in his first movie, The Villain. At that time, neither of us could imagine that he would become such an important movie star and then governor of California. He was a great guy back then, and he has never changed." »
'Twilight' Actors Without Clothes, The 'New Moon' Premiere And Dog Accounts In Today's Twitter-Wood
6 November 2009 4:30 PM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
The Twitter-Wood feed started following its first canine today, as recent hacking victim and "Eclipse" actress Jodelle Ferland tweeted a pic referencing her dog "Genevieve Ferland." According to @gena_fur's Twitter account, Genevieve recently turned five, hates nail clippers and dressed as a princess last year for Halloween.
Lack of clothing was on the minds of two other "Twilight" series actors, though, as Tinsel Korey seems to have not yet found a dress for the "New Moon" premiere, and Charlie Bewley reported on his love of not wearing anything. Remarkably, I made none of this up. Check it out, along with an award Arnold Schwarzenegger recently presented to Kirk Douglas, a scandalous "Full House" photo and the reason "Iron Man 2" will show up to theaters late if it gets delayed. It's all in the Twitter-Wood report for November 6, 2009.

Updates on Robert Rodriguez’s Predators
5 November 2009 4:50 PM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »
The original Predator inspired more American Film Market-screened knockoffs than just about any other movie, and the word on the street here at the sales event is that the upcoming Robert Rodriguez production Predators will also jumpstart a whole new stream of human-vs.-aliens movies. And those who gotten a look at the Predators screenplay have been raving.
These sources tell Fango that this sequel ignores Predator 2 as well as both Alien Vs. Predator movies, and is a direct sequel to the Arnold Schwarzenegger-starrer. The script, by Michael Finch, Alex Litvak and Rodriguez, not only takes place on Earth, but its human characters also travel to the Predators’ planet to hunt the extraterrestrials. We will see new species—including Predator dogs!—and there’s going to be a Berserker Predator, the meanest badass of them all. And in some surprising FX news, Knb Efx’s Howard Berger and »

Milla Jovovich Joins Twitter; Updates from Resident Evil: Afterlife Set
5 November 2009 12:52 PM, PST | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
Earlier this week, Dr. Cole Abaius and I were having a discussion about a new brand of director -- the super-accessible kind who are now connecting with us, and their audience through the social media site Twitter. Whereas they were previously just the folks behind the camera and in the hot seat during junket weekend prior to their release, directors like Up in the Air's Jason Reitman (@JasonReitman), The Brothers Bloom director Rian Johnson (@rcjohnso) and even that Clerks guy Kevin Smith (@ThatKevinSmith) are now just a tweet away. It is interesting to see them so connected, so close to the folks who buy tickets that pay their salaries. Then, there are the on-set tweeters. The publicist for The Expendables has been tweeting like crazy about Sly Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and everyone else who's come to that set. And Overture Films has someone on set with Breck Eisner's The Crazies (@TheCraziesFilm), tweeting live from the »

Natalie Portman on ‘Black Swan’ sex scene with Mila Kunis: ‘It’s extreme’
5 November 2009 8:55 AM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »
Natalie Portman doesn’t want to turn into Denise Richards who is remembered more for being naked rather than her acting…though, really, there’s little chance of that.
The former Star Wars star is not opposed to doing nude scenes when it’s called for, she’s against nude celebrity web sites like Mr. Skin.
Portman originally turned down a role in Wayne Wang’s 1999 film Anywhere But Here, but joined the project when her nude scene was written out of the film. “I’m not opposed to sexuality or nudity in a film, but I’m very opposed to pornography sites and you’re pretty much giving them material if you do any of that,” she told V magazine. “It’s always a big dilemma for me.”
Portman added that it’s “annoying because online bullshit interferes with what I want to do artistically.”

--Sylvester Stallone has opened up on the secret scene in "The Expendables" featuring himself, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger and my greatest dreams come to life. According to the actor, Willis plays the man who hires Stallone and his titular team for "a death-defying mission," but there's another operative that could take on the job — none other than Stallone's longtime rival, played by Schwarzenegger. "I talked about this scene with these guys for a long time, but I never thought it would come to fruition," said Stallone. (PopWatch)
--NBC is going from "Heroes" to "Zeroes" in an all-new television project from "Crank" duo Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor. Titled "Zeroes," the one-hour NBC project will focus on a crisis situation's final hour. "We want to drop right into it and sustain the absolute most berserk state of crisis, when all of the options have been exhausted," said Taylor. (THR)

Joss Whedon Will Gladly Buy the Rights to 'Terminator'
2 November 2009 12:32 PM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »
The rights to the Terminator franchise have only been up on the auction block for about as long as it takes Arnold Schwarzenegger to emerge naked from a time bubble, but a veteran Hollywood mogul has already expressed interest in taking the brand off the hands of the now-bankrupt Halcyon; and that vet is none other than Toy Story, Alien: Resurrection, and Titan A.E. screenwriter Joss Whedon (oh, and he created Buffy the Vampire Slayer and "Firefly"/Serenity, but I don't think anyone has ever heard of those).
Mr. Whedon took the time out of his busy schedule running his latest TV show, the Eliza Dushku starring "Dollhouse", to write an earnest letter to Halcyon making the case for why he's the right man for the job. And as with all things Whedon, his proposal has its fair share of the funny.
In it, he outlines the six possible directions he'd take the franchise, »

One word describes the Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger scene in ‘The Expendables’: Atomic
2 November 2009 9:49 AM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »
If I had a sticker that read “excitement” on it, I would place it on the Sylvester Stallone’s upcoming action-fiesta The Expendables. It would be a huge sticker. The font would probably be Impact or Hellblazer and it sure as hell would not be just silly ol’ Times New Roman.
We have news of Stallone filming his scene with action superstars Bruce Willis and the iconic, the immortal, the governor of California…Arnold Schwarzenegger. If seeing those names don’t get your inner movie fanboy excited, nothing will.
“At 8:10am with three cameras rolling the biggest action icons of our time went to work,” said Ethelmae’s Blog. “I thought it was electric in Brazil when all of the Expendables stepped on set – but today was atomic!!!! The whole crew was mesmerized as we watched the three of them play off of each other in a pivotal scene »

Stallone, Schwarzenegger and Willis' 'Expendables' Scene Explained
1 November 2009 9:05 PM, PST | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »
Last Saturday, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and Bruce Willis shot a church scene for Stallone's The Expendables action ensemble pic, marking the first time that the three '80s action stars have appeared together on the silver screen. Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly subsequently chatted with Stallone about the scene(s), who enthusiastically revealed a bit about what we can all expect.
*Spoiler Alert*
"Bruce says 'Well, there's one other person I want to talk to before I hire you," said Stallone. "And then Arnold, who plays my old rival, walks in. We have a history together. And we go back and forth and I tell him that I should have shot him a long time ago when I had the chance. Then it goes on from there. And here we are, the three of us trying to man up to one another, playing off of who we are, using our baggage in this one scene. »

Sly Talks Expendables Scene with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis
1 November 2009 5:50 PM, PST | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Entertainment Weekly talked with Sylvester Stallone about the pivotal, 5-minute scene with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis for Stallone's The Expendables which we first reported here. Sly talked candidly about the six hour shoot:
Stallone said the superstar-summit scene takes place in a church, where Willis' nasty antagonist has summoned Stallone's macho mercenary to finally meet him face-to-face, take measure of him, and possibly hire him for a death-defying mission. But just as the meeting gets under way and smartass smalltalk is made, in walks another killer-for-hire - Stallone's longtime rival, who Willis has also invited to this job interview: Ah-nuld.
"Bruce says 'Well, there's one other person I want to talk to before I hire you," says Stallone. "And then Arnold, who plays my old rival, walks in. We have a history together. And we go back and forth and I tell him that I should have shot him »
The Expendables: Willis & Schwarzenegger Character Info
1 November 2009 3:37 PM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
The first trailer for The Expendables made its way online the other week although it was unofficial, unfinished and quickly removed everywhere at the request of Lionsgate.
The movie brings together a plethora of action stars, most notably, those who kicked ass during the 80s. It was shaping up to be a perfect reunion of the stars we loved from back in the day. When we got to see the unofficial trailer, the quality of what we saw sure made it feel like an 80s action flick, which to me was good and bad.
From the footage, we never got to see two big names who we know are involved with the movie: Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis. Thanks to an Entertainment Weekly exclusive chat with Stallone, we now have some details on what Willis and the Governator will be playing.
EW spoke with Stallone (who’s also directing the »
