Smokin 'Aces bet is the new director and writer Joe Carnahan (Narc , 2002), which opens the second week of January in the U.S..
The film tells the tragic fate of Buddy "Aces" Israel (Jeremy Piven ), a Las Vegas magician and former member of the mafia. In exchange for protection, "Aces" offers the FBI to testify against his former mob boss, Primo Sparazza (Joseph Ruskin). Sparazza learns of the agreement and then offered a reward of $ 1 million dollars to whoever disappear this wizard (and, as proof, I give the heart of "Aces.")
is how many "hitmen" (Or murderers for hire) respond to the call of Sparazza, including FBI infiltrators.
derrepente gave me eager to see the madness of Quentin Tarantino ( Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill I and II, etc ) and Robert Rodriguez ( Sin City, Spy Kids, Desperado y. ..) which opens on 6 April.
is a double feature, that is two in one feature film. Grindhouse is divided into Planet Terror (Rodriguez) and Death Proof (Tarantino). The first is a zombie film and the second is a slasher film (sub-genre of horror which usually involves a masked psychopath who murders his victims in a very graphic). The film will also include fake movie trailers in between the two features.
And because I liked the movie, I leave the video and lyrics of the song from the soundtrack of Casino Royale, "You Know My Name" Chris Cornell of (which fits magically perfect and the plot of the movie.)
You Know My Name Chris Cornell
If you take a life do you know what you'll give? Odds are, you won't like what it is When the storm arrives, would you be seen with me? By the merciless eyes of deceit?
I've seen angels fall from blinding heights But you yourself are nothing so divine Just next in line
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you The odds will betray you And I will replace you You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you It longs to kill you Are you willing to die?
The coldest blood runs through my veins You know my name
If you come inside things will not be the same When you return to the night And if you think you've won You never saw me change The game that we all been playing
I've seen diamonds cut through harder men Than you yourself But if you must pretend You may meet your end
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you The odds will betray you And I will replace you You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you It longs to kill you Are you willing to die?
The coldest blood runs through my veins
Try to hide your hand Forget how to feel Forget how to feel
Life is gone with just a spin of the wheel Spin of the wheel Arm yourself
Because no-one else here will save you The odds will betray
you And I will replace you You can not deny the prize it may never Fulfill you It longs to kill you Are you willing to die?
The coldest blood runs Through my veins You know my name
You know my name You know my name You know my name
You know my name You know my name You know my name
Rather than reinvent or revive James Bond , making Martin Campbell in Casino Royale (delivery number 21 in the series) is reset to Bond as the ultimate spy. Daniel Craig may not be not dark, neither tall nor too sophisticated, but in my opinion, is the best Bond since Roger Moore .
Although initially this film caught my attention because I figured it would be more of the same, as I started reading the reviews on the movie sites I visit regularly, it sparked my curiosity. Thus today, opening day in Chile, I went to see a friend with great faith and hope that I will not disappoint.
did not. Indeed, thrills, entertains and delights. Even the scenes of the game of poker (I do not understand at all) have public clinging to the seat without being able to take off the eyes of the screen. Although in reality, for me, not being able to take off the eyes of the screen has to do mostly with Daniel Craig, which he could not comment at the time my friend for obvious reasons. This man has given James Bond a little character that are used but, incredibly, it pleases. managed to capture the essence of a young, amateur spy, recently promoted to the status "00." A less sophisticated spy James Bond veteran, not a drink Favorite defined yet (ordered an iced tea in a casino) and, to the disappointment of some, without much variety of sophisticated gadgets. Daniel Craig could stay with the role of Bond until he wishes, without a doubt.
In short, Casino Royale has returned to the James Bond world so much we missed.
Name: Casino Royale
Director: Martin Campbell
Cast: Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Judi Dench, Mads Mikkelsen.
Star Wars Kid or Ghyslain Raza, became famous through the Internet thanks to fellow students (very nice of them) who took the bother to upload a video showing Raza imitating the movements of combat Darth Maul in Star Wars. Raza sued against their peers for the shame he posed in front of millions of Internet users. Still, the video is one of the funniest things I've seen in my life.
Brandon Kuzma, or N64 Kid, is the protagonist of the next video. This shows a euphoric Kuzma on Christmas, receiving the gift, then, popular Nintendo 64 .
Video YouTube became so popular in that Kuzma, now grown, sold the Nintendo 64 on eBay more than one thousand dollars.
The video below will show is living proof that the Japanese are more creative than Westerners. Was recorded for the program Kinchen and Katori Shingo's National Costume Competition , Japanese television in March 2003 and shows a group of actors imitating the movements of the film The Matrix with ping-pong. Very good .
Today nobody wanted to go with me to the movies, nobody wanted to go for a spin. Everyone is too stressed or relaxed ( read: sleeping all afternoon ). So I sat in front of my beloved laptop and, of boredom, Mamuschka.Blogspot.Com completely redesigned. It took me longer to encode the HTML header, since I tend to be a little obsessed with the details (and some other things). Yes, I'ma nerd, and anyone who is, not only recognize Christian Bale in the picture, but know that he is who played Batman in the latest film adaptation of Christopher Nolan.
hope you like the new design and watch it well, because I intend to change it later.
Edition: The design is out of square when viewed in Internet Explorer but in Mozilla it looks good. I'm troubleshooting.
It's Always Better When We're Together ... The Transported Man
Jack Johnson is a master of the guitar. Born in Hawaii, is a professional surfer and filmmaker. It is from these musicians have the ability to write songs that not only make you feel as if the world was three times better than it is, but it also makes you want to listen again and again. I really caught one in particular, Better Together. I leave:
'm concerned. I come to hurt the fingers of the pure desire to write this post. I have a couple of nails less and I feel the beginnings of a headache so much thinking. And is that The Prestige is everything and more than I expected. The film is an act of magic in itself, is a full show, complete.
The lights down and the screen is projected the image of a forest outside of, as we found out later, Colorado Springs. But the camera does not focus on the landscape, but stops before a pile of black top hats scattered on the ground. It is at that moment when you hear the voice of Harry Cutter (Michael Caine), who proceeds to explain the composition of a magic act:
"Every great magic trick Consists of three acts. The first act is Called" The Pledge "The magician shows you Something ordinary, pero of course ... it isn't Probably. The second act is Called" The Turn ", The Magician Makes Some historical ordinary Do Something extraordinary thing. Now if you're looking for the secret ... Will not you find it, that's why There's a third act streets, "The Prestige" this is the p art with the twists and turns, where 'lives hang in the balance, and you see Something shocking you've never seen before. "
" Every great magic trick consists of three acts. The first is called "The Promise / Commitment" The magician shows you something ordinary, ie course ro ... it is not. The second act is called "The Turn", the magician makes the ordinary into something extraordinary. Now, you're the secret ... not find it, that's why there's a third act called "The Prestige", this is the part with the twists and turns, where life hangs by a thread , and when you see something shocking you've never seen before. "
The film is not far behind and follow these rules faithfully.
The Pledge / The Pledge.

The Turn / The Giro. Angier's desire to obtain the secret becomes an obsession. Resorts to extreme means in search of that answer that no one seems to have but still exceeds Broden. It is in desperation that Angier travels to Colorado Springs, where the plot gets even thicker, where this simple story takes a of money that nobody expected.
The Prestige / The Prestige.
... is in cinemas.
long ago did not leave the film with such high levels of euphoria. The Prestige is one of those movies you not only stop thinking, but also because you get verbiage and just want to talk about it, confirm that what you saw others also saw it and were amazed as much as you. It is these films that you have to wonder soriendo passes and as you settle into your seat because you're not uncomfortable, but because the anticipation is too much to stay still. It is these films that are about two to three times because one is not there to savor.
do not intend to introduce or define what is LOST because anyone with a television knows that I mean the masterpiece Jeffrey Lieber and JJ Abrams . When it comes to popular series that give much to talk, you have a thousand fansites on the web, coming out in newspapers, magazines, etc ... Something happens that can siemplemente not like it then. It happened with Friends and, recently, Grey's Anatomy ... and I also happened to LOST. I avoided the series for as long as I could, playing down his popularity, assuming it was something as absurd as the inexplicable fame of the group RBD. But when the respectable host of one of my favorite podcasts that he had seen the series and had spent the weekend watching the first season, I said I could not remain ignorant and should find out for myself what all the fuss. That was how, in less than a week, I'd devour the entire first season and the first chapters of the second.
What's so special? I do not know, really. May be the stories behind each character and the treatment given, the mystery of the island, the love triangle between Jack, Kate and Sawyer ... I do not know but gave the nail and I am "forced" to follow religiously while emissions in USA.
best of this series, in my view, is that throughout the story there are moments that you are marking, when you are not forgotten and you never get bored of seeing. Here are some of my favorites ( SPOILERS for those who have not seen anything yet):
This video not found on You Tube so I found time to upload it myself. I still remember the exact moment that I was seeing and my reaction to see how the hatch window is lit. Unbelievable.
When I saw it was still difficult to differentiate between the views of Locke and reality. It's a great scene.
Artz explodes. Nothing to say.
No words can explain what this scene is perfect.
First scene of the second season.
Bye, bye hatch. Unbelievable.
third season. Looking from another perspective as falls on Oceanic 815.
Priceless. Sawyer is one of the best qualities of this series.
Those who know me best say that only look forward to this movie because it participates Clive Owen, but although there is some truth in that statement, I have hope that it will be the best apocalyptic film has been shown in some time .
is the year 2027 and the world is in total chaos. In the past 18 years or an unborn human being and science can not explain why. Children of Men portrays a dystopian and anarchic world in which the human race is faced with the fear of witnessing his own extinction. But all this changes radically when Theo Faron (Clive Owen) finds out through his ex-wife, Julian (Julianne Moore ) of the existence of a pregnant woman. Thus the two embark on the mission of this woman to complete its successful pregnancy ... but not so easy.
