I can’t help but laugh that the trailer for Remember Me starts with Robert Pattinson’s character quoting Ghandi before getting into a fist-fight.  I’m not exactly sure what the point of the film is other than Pattinson is a rebel without a cause and people beat him up a lot.  I’ll admit that Pattinson good looking and the camera loves him when he looks like a real person and not an albino with orange contact lenses.  He’s obviously trying to find a career beyond Twilight, but I’m not sure another dramatic romance movie where only a good woman can mend his broken soul is going to accomplish that.

Check out the trailer after the jump along with a brief synopsis.  Remember Me is currently slated to open in theaters on March 12, 2010.

Until a week ago, I had never seen more than thirty seconds of Lost. There’s a good reason for this: I don’t watch TV. That’s not because I’m a snob, it’s because I always have a pile of movies to watch. And as that is the case, making time to watch television has always been a luxury I’ve denied myself. So, with that in mind there’s going to be two types of people reading this. People like me who never watched the show, and those who are religious about it, or got turned off at some point. I will gear the first part of the review for those who haven’t seen it and the second part for those who have. It’s all after the jump:

I know all the “Twilight” fangirls have “Robert Pattinson” set down in their Google Alerts.  One of these days, traffic is going to be really slow and for shits and giggles I’m going to write a story called “Robert Pattinson” and the headline will be “Robert Pattinson” and the text of the story will simply have the words “Robert Pattinson” and then I’ll show a picture of Robert Davi.  This will amuse me.

But today I can report really news related to Pattinson.  According to Variety, Emile de Ravin, Pierce Brosnan, and Chris Cooper will co-star with Pattinson in Allen Coulter’s “Remember Me”.  I was planning to use this title for my documentary on the desperation of reality TV stars, but Coulter wishes to tell the story of a man (Pattinson) whose brother’s suicide has split up his parents (Brosnan and possibly Lena Olin) and left him sleepwalking through life. De Ravin will play a young woman who, after watching her mother get killed before her eyes, seizes life to its fullest.  Chris Cooper is in talks to play her father.  I don’t understand why more actors wouldn’t want to be involved in this laugh riot.  I always say that if audiences don’t leave wanting to ask their doctor about anti-depressants, then your film has failed.
