Closing Out The 2009 Movie Year!
I love it when Lloyd puts on his Press Hat! It means he’s been in news gathering mode for movies.
It’s been a rather dismal time at the movies during the past few weeks as Hollywood has been dumping a number of sub-par flicks onto the market. But, with Thanksgiving on the horizon get ready for a string of what movie makers hope will be blockbuster hits!
Some of the more notable flicks coming soon…
- A Christmas Carol
- Men Who Stare At Goats
- 2012
- The Twilight Saga: New Moon
- Old Dogs
- Alvin & The Chipmunks: The Squeakuel
- Sherlock Holmes
Big Names Promote Big Premieres
It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas as the world premiere of Jim Carrey’s new movie, A Christmas Carol, took place last night, Tuesday, in London. Carrey, along with Colin Firth and Bob Hoskins – all of whom lend their voices to the 3D animated update of this Charles Dickens story – showed up too! Not only did they screen the movie, the trio also turned on the city’s Christmas lights at Oxford Circus and Regent Street.
Jim Carrey, who plays Scrooge in the movie, said “I want to thank the people of Britain personally for the legacy of Charles Dickens, his work, and for the chance to do this beautiful story again.
A Christmas Carol opens this Friday!
Meanwhile, time must be flying because 2012 is already here! The new disaster flick which is receiving much hype had its world premiere last night, Tuesday, in Los Angeles. John Cusack, who stars in this end-of-the-world flick says while the movie is about people rising up in the face of adversity, 2012 is ultimately “Still just a big epic popcorn movie”.
2012, from the same director/producer that brought us Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow, also stars Amanda Peet, Danny Glover and Thandie Newton.
2012 opens on November 13!
Yours in movie news!
