*special thanks to my lovely wife Crystal for tipping me off on this one.
Some may argue that I’m a week early, and that perhaps Harold and Kumar do not represent the summer blockbuster ‘mold’.
Screw ‘em.
Harold and Kumar will be fantastic for anyone that loved the first, simple as that. Next week however is Ironman, followed by Speedracer, then Indy, Batman, Hancock, Hulk, Wanted and the list goes on…
I say bring them on, its going to be one hell of a summer.
Anniversary you say? Surely this site has not been around for a year already has it? Well… no. It most definitely has not.
But that’s old school convention, and I say screw it. It is our Anniversary today because the first movie we discussed on iconogeek when it was in the theater comes out on DVD today. We have made it a full theater to home release cycle, and that my friends is something to proud of.
Alright maybe it is not that big of a deal, but seriously give me a break. It’s only Tuesday and this week feels like its 2 months long already, so let me have my little delusions.
Cloverfield -The much hyped, motion sickness inducing, nail biting, hair raising mystery dated flick that re-invigorated the monster movie genre. Even with all of the anticipation leading up to this movie, it still managed to deliver. Buy this DVD. We need more movies willing to take chances… and I don’t mean like indy-movie chances where you discuss the inner spirit or some crap like that… I mean I want more balls-out monster movies. If they make a sequel and it has bare breasts in it, I can safely say now that it will be the last movie I will ever need to see.
The Orphanage - Guillermo Del Toro produces this extremely creepy looking movie with kids talking to ghosts and random nightmare concoctions of that sort. I’ll be picking this one up this week and I’ll let you know how I feel… from what I’ve heard though I may be hiding under my bed for a week, terrified.
That title is not just a common theme from the show, but it is also the subtitle of the new X-files movie coming out July 25th. From reading this article we find out that this was the title Chris Carter had wanted from the beginning, so I’m happy to see that execs let him have his way.
I used this image so all of the fans out there can go ahead and Photoshop their own heads in place of Duchovny’s.
Dreamworks has acquired the rights to make the Ghost in the Shell property into a 3d live action film. Apparently Spielberg is a big fan and threw his weight behind it in order to make it happen.
Avi Arad, the producer for a ton of the latest comic book movies ( all of the Spiderman, X-men, Fantastic Four films in addition to the upcoming Iron Man and Hulk flics) is already attached to the project so it sounds like it has a great shot of being something special.
