Fox Searchlight has released a few new photos from Clark Gregg’s big screen adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk’s Choke. I’ve seen the movie twice now, and I’m pretty sure the photo above comes from a scene which was not included in film festival cut of the movie. Clark Gregg filmed Palahniuk’s original ending to the book, [...]

Fox Searchlight has released the teaser poster for the Clark Gregg’s big screen adaption of Fight Club author Chuck Palahniuk’s Choke. The poster features a silhouette of Sam Rockwell choking on either Kelly Macdonal or Anjelica Huston. Either way I’m not sure I get the symbology, but it’s certainly a cool looking image.

Fox Searchlight has just informed us that the big screen adaptation of Fight Club author Chuck Palahniuk’s Choke has been pushed back to September 26th 2008. When the company snapped up the film for a hefty $5 million at Sundance, they immediately announced an August 1st release date.
The last Friday of July/first Friday of August [...]

The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly has a first look photo of Derek Luke as Sean “P-Diddy” Combs and Jamal Woolard as Notorious B.I.G. (Christopher Wallace) in Fox Searchlight’s upcoming biopic Notorious, which hits theaters on January 16th 2009. Looks authentic enough to me, but will the movie be worth watching?

The Amelia Earhart biopic Amelia is currently shooting in Toronto and Empire Movies and BadandUgly have the first photos of Hilary Swank as the legendary American pilot who disappeared while flying over the Pacific Ocean in 1937 in an attempt to make a flight around the world. Richard Gere plays publisher and promoter George Putnam, [...]

Juno II Movie Trailer created by Mad TV
The Pitch: “From the irritatingly quirky mind of Oscar Award winning Diablo Cody comes the sequel that half the country has been violently waiting for. Juno kills a homeless man and has conversations full of inane pop-cultured nonsense.”
Video of the Day is a daily feature of /Film showcasing [...]

Just when you though the Juno news posts on /Film had finally come to an end, we bring you news of a sequel… kinda.
The soundtrack to Juno was almost as big as the indie film sensation itself, hitting number one on the Billboard charts and becoming the best-selling album on the United States iTunes music [...]

Juno hits DVD on April 15th 2008, and the special edition DVD features 11 deleted scenes.
Fox Searchlight has released an advance look at one of those scenes. “Cafe Triste” features Juno (Ellen Page) performing a one man show at a little cafe with best friend Leah (Olivia Thirlby) and always-awkward former semi-boyfriend Paulie Bleeker (Michael [...]

The last recent rom-com I watched (re: politely forced) was Music and Lyrics, which was so amazingly terrible it even made the domineering rental-picker blush. One of the problems nowadays with this genre is an utter void of chemistry between the leads in favor of “mall hot” eugenics. Feh to that! Without even knowing the [...]

/Film reader Sheryl Z pointed us towards this trailer for a very well done Juno parody titled Jewno. The title tells you everything. Written by Daily Show scribe Rob Kutner & Sheryl Zohn, and directed by Stephen J Levinson for The Shushan Channel, Jewno tackles almost every possible Jewish joke (and then some) in the [...]

As announced earlier this month, Jamal Woolard will star as the lead role in Notorious, a big screen adaptation of the life of rapper Christopher Wallace a.k.a. The Notorious B.I.G.
Fox Searchlight sent us a first look of Jamal as B.I.G., and I must admit, he looks pretty dead on.
Jamal’s casting isn’t without controversy. New York [...]

After watching Choke, an adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk’s (Survivor, Fight Club) novel directed by Clark Gregg, the words vulgar, crude, profane, blasphemous, obscene, and, best of all, hilarious, all come to mind. A sharp critique aimed at our self-centered, self-absorbed culture, with a few digs at group therapy, psychiatry, and dysfunctional parenting, Choke is the [...]

So, it’s sort of official that Will Ferrell killed edgy comedy last weekend with his b-ball floparoni Semi-Pro. An R-rated afro, post-Herzog bear fighting, and the era that Peter Frampton built (the ’70s) only takes you so far in 2008. What’s the solution? How about a three-year-old movie from The Onion? Yes, ladies and gentlemen [...]

When Michel Gondry introduced the idea of sweding to the masses in (or to the few people who saw) Be Kind Rewind, I expected a big response on YouTube of fans recreating their favorite movies. And that has happened, but one thing I never expected has started. I always believed the point of sweding movies [...]

A couple weeks ago we posted details on the DVD release of Jason Reitman’s Juno, complete with cover art. One of my friends just sent me the super-cool artwork from the cover of the Blu-ray disc special edition version (seen above). It’s definitely much cooler than the standard dvd release artwork. It kind of reminds [...]
