I Am Link

.

--- Feet Hot From the Pavement - Pitchfork has a little bit more info on Spike Jonze's thirty-minute film Scenes From the Suburbs based off the music of Arcade Fire's latest album, including that poster for it right there. It's still set to screen at the Berlin Film Festival this month.

--- Coffy Kick Ass - I keep forgetting that RZA and Eli Roth are making a martial arts movie together. Roth's producing, that is. New word has Pam motherfuckin' Grier having joined the cast. Hell yes. I wish the Lady Grier would work more often, I always love watching her on-screen. I need to watch Jackie Brown again sometime soon is what I need to do.

--- Ready Set Magic - Over at The Film Experience Nat's interview with The King's Speech production designer Eve Stewart is a wonderful read - if there's one element of TKS which I get the praise for it's her work, which was gorgeous. Indeed, that wall! And did we know that Gwyneth Paltrow's trying to play Marlene Dietrich for an HBO film? I don't think I knew that.

--- Spankin' Amos - If you haven't seen them yet, the blooper reel for Burlesque is online and it includes extra footage of Cam Gigandet's cookie dance.

--- Blue Eyes Black - Several new shots of Jake in Duncan Jones' Source Code can be seen here. He seems suitably intense.

--- Stake Rare - The director of the gloriously entertaining Orphan is turning his eye to Harker, a script that turns the character in Bram Stoker's Dracula (I mean the book, not Keanu Reeves) from a real-estate broker into a Sherlock Holmes type on Drac's tail. Mkay.

--- Tripper Man - I honestly can't even keep up with James Franco's shenanigans anymore - I read this a couple weeks ago when he was doing the shtick at Sundance and forgot about it but I guess his "art performance" of dramatic takes on Three's Company episodes actually might turn into something more. Good grief.

--- Doctor Spaceman - There are approximately fifty billion pictures from Paul, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost's alien buddy comedy, right here. And I can't find the link this morning but I saw an early review somewhere the other day that mentioned the film is heavy on "Christian bashing," which naturally has made me even more excited for it. Bring it on.

--- Iron Lady - You have seen the picture of Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher by now, right? It glimmers with the promise of a little gold man, doesn't it?

--- Pink Bunkadoo - Time Bandits is one of my boyfriend's favorite movies ever so this link's for him: this poster for Gilliam's classic was created for a screening this weekend in Toronto, and it is a lovely thing to behold, isn't it? And if you're up there in Toronto you can win a copy - there are only ten in the world.

--- Hobbit Ho - I don't think they should be so vocal about a start-date for The Hobbit's filming - March 21st, if you haven't seen - since horrible horrible things keep piling up every time we think it's going to start. You're jinxing yourselves! You've obviously just got to film this little thing on the sly, without preparation.
