TRUE GRIT (2010)

Hmm, how can I put this? I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS! This is a COEN BROS remake of classic old John Wayne western, where Coen Bros fave Jeff Bridges plays the John Wayne role of Marshal Reuben J. Cogburn! Very Cool. And Matt Damon plays the Glen Campbell role of LaBoeuf! (I wonder if Matt Damon will sing the theme song just like Glen Campbell did in the original?) And it co-stars/introduces Hailee Steinfeld as the assertive young Mattie Ross who hires Cogburn to find her father's killer. Now the Coens are quite talented at the comedic stylings, but it seems as though in careers as aging men they have been leaning towards the darker side of things, which looks to be where this film falls--though it should be noted that the original is fairly light-hearted so their might be some Wayne-inspired tomfoolery. Anyways, take a peek, I know lots of people will be underwhelmed, but I have faith in this film. Go Coens!

Tron: Legacy teaser (2010)

If for some reason, you have not seen this yet, here it is. This is the teaser/test footage that they showed at Comic-Con last year that sent shivers (good shivers) through the internet. It is amazing and beautiful footage from the upcoming blockbuster sequel Tron: Legacy that will be released later this year and was filmed in Vancouver! Even if this film turns out to be a narrative dud (not saying it will) it most certainly will be enjoyable eye-candy. Director Joseph Kosinski has even said that this footage is nothing compared to what will be in the final film. That's pretty exciting seeing as how cool this looks! Have a look for yourself!
