| Tom Cruise in ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol’ Posted: 30 Oct 2011 06:53 AM PDT
Opening on the Kremlin exploding, the footage shows Cruise, returning as Ethan Hunt, being told the government has shut down the IMF, which was implicated in the bombing. He is about to receive his next assignment (if he choose to accept the mission), when the vehicle is attacked and his team is on its own. What follows in the adventure is a series of action-packed scenes, leaping off bridges, repelling on buildings, chases, gunfire, getaways, missiles, and high-tech gadgetry as the rogue team goes undercover and plots to clear the organisation's reputation. The epic film also co-stars Simon Pegg (Paul) for a touch of humor and Tom Wilkinson (The Ghost Writer). MI4 is the first live action film for Brad Bird, who directed the animated Ratatouille, The Incredibles and The Simpsons. Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol opens worldwide on December 16, then releases in the UK on December 26, Brazil on December 30, and Sweden and Italy in January. As a bonus, producer J.J. Abrams (director of Super 8) provides a featurette with Cruise climbing the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. – AFP Full content generated by Get Full RSS. |
| Cameron unveils scenes from ‘Titanic’ in 3D Posted: 30 Oct 2011 04:03 AM PDT
Cameron and producer Jon Landau showed 18 minutes of film in the huge screening room at Paramount Studios – the only major motion picture studio left in old Hollywood. "This a film that many people have seen, obviously, sometimes multiple times, but there is a whole generation of people who haven't seen it in theatres," Cameron said. "I love the 3D, I think it's spectacular. If I had had 3D cameras at the time, if there had been 3D theatres at the time, I would certainly have shot the film in 3D." "Titanic" – which starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as star-crossed lovers aboard the ill-fated passenger steamship that struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sank in 1912 – was first released in 1997. The film earned more than US$1.8 billion (RM5.52 billion) worldwide and 11 Oscars including Best Picture and a Best Director statuette for Cameron. It remained the highest-grossing film of all time until Cameron's "Avatar" shattered the record with more than US$2.8 billion in worldwide receipts. "I do believe that there is an array of 10 or 20 movies – think of the best movies of all times – that should be converted in 3D, but it has to be done right," Cameron said. "I firmly believe that 3D is an enhancement even for just normal, narrative scenes, not necessarily the action scenes," he said. "That feeling that you're right there, actually with characters, enhances the emotional interaction between the audience and the film." He however admitted that "Titanic" for him would only become a film in "2.99D" as opposed to one originally filmed in 3D. The 3D version of "Titanic" will hit theatres in North America on April 6, 2012, four days before the 100th anniversary of the ship's doomed maiden voyage from Southampton to New York. – Reuters Full content generated by Get Full RSS. |
