Monkey 1 — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 17:07:54 +0000

Beware, gentle reader. I talk about the movie here so if you don't want to have the plotline ruined, go see the movie then come back and share your thoughts.

So I rushed out and saw Avatar last night. I caught the very first showing at our local theater and was a little surprised that it wasn't sold out considering the attention leading up to opening night! That said, we got our tickets, were gouged at…

Iron Man 2 – new Magazine cover

Monkey 1 — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 00:07:39 +0000

For my money there is no cooler hero in the Marvel Universe right now than Iron Man. I am positively giddy about be able to cheer for Robert Downey Jr. again. Iron Man 2 is arguably the most anticipated sequel for 2010 and I for one CANNOT WAIT. In the meantime, I will have to satisfy myself with every and any image and trailer I can get my hands on.

The superhot Zoe Saldana, who played Uhura in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek and will be the voice of a blue alien in James Cameron's upcoming Avatar, says she's not just a sex plaything. Well, color me relieved!

Speaking to Details magazine, Saldana said: "I've always gravitated toward the Sigourney Weavers, the f--king Linda Hamiltons, the Angelina Jolies. I just love strong women that are in tune with their bodies—that don't just use their bodies as sex tools."

The official Avatar website has gone live. To be honest, I'm pretty disappointed that there doesn't seem to be much there, however soundtrack fans will be pleased to hear a few snippets from James Horner's score playing in the background.

Although the music on the site is in low quality, and although there's not a lot of it, I like what I hear. It sounds very native, even…

‘The A-Team’: First Official Image, No Girls Allowed

Monkey 1 — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 03:44:49 +0000

Here's the first official image from The A-Team (click the image to enlarge).

Here are my initial thoughts. Liam Neeson looks unrecognizable (he looks more like George Peppard than he does himself), but those harry high pants and tucked in shirt make me think a lot differently about that cigar. Rampage Jackson continues to ooze his TUF 10 tosser personality, and it's impossible to think he's anything other than a "fool". Sharlto Copley looks like he doesn't…
