Posted: November 13th, 2009 at 2:18 pm

It’s been a pretty crazy week for news here at Collider as Steve landed the first photos and full synopses from dozens of upcoming films.  If you haven’t seen them, you can check them out here, here, here, and here.  That was on top of all the good stuff we bring you on a regular basis.  But even with all the news we posted this week, there’s still more and while we didn’t have time to give these stories their own articles, we wanted to make sure you knew about some other cool stuff from the past few days.

Hit the jump to read about how James Franco’s General Hospital stint folds into a larger art project he’s doing, South Park taking their shot at James Cameron’s Avatar, Spider-Man finally arrested for being a menace, and more.

Trailer and Poster for CRACKS Starring Eva Green

Posted: October 27th, 2009 at 11:56 am

I hadn’t even heard of “Cracks” before today and after watching the trailer and reading the synopsis, I’m wondering when I’ll get the chance to see it.  Directed by Jordan Scott (the spawn of Ridley Scott who also produced the film alongside his brother Tony), “Cracks” looks like it has a nice “Picnic at Hanging Rock” vibe to it although the plot seems like a dark, twisted version of “Dead Poets Society”. The film also stars Eva Green being all sexy and mysterious.  I like all of these things.  The trailer leaves the details of the plot a bit fuzzy so I’ve also included a brief synopsis as well as the poster which also went online today.  Check out this “Hanging Rock”-”Dead Poets”-Sexy/Mysterious Eva Green-hybrid after the jump.

Mickey Rourke Meets MONA LISA

Posted: May 14th, 2009 at 11:37 pm

You can’t stop Mickey Rourke and you don’t want to stop Mickey Rourke.  Wouldn’t it be really, really depressing if his performance in “The Wrestler” turned out to be a fluke and he just decided to phone it in from here on out?  Boy, we’d all feel reeeeal stupid for cheering him on.

But right now, we can cheer on Rourke with impunity (we’ll just forget “The Informers”) and our cheering continues as Variety is reporting that Rourke has signed on to star in Larry Clark’s (”Kids”, “Wassup Rockers”) remake of Neil Jordan’s 1986 British gangster flick, “Mona Lisa”.  In the film, Rourke would play an ex-con who takes a job as a chauffeur for a high-class escort.  Eva Green is in negotiations to play the part of the escort and we all hope she gets it not only because I can buy her as an expensive prostitute, but because contrary to popular belief, the public always welcomes a fresh opportunity to see Eva Green naked and we all wore out our copies of “The Dreamers”.

As for Rourke, the guy is about to be everywhere as he’s got roles in “The Expendables”, “Iron Man 2″, “St. Vincent”, “Eleven Minutes”, “Broken Horses”, and “Passion Plays”.  After being dormant for so long, it’s clear that Rourke is making up for lost time.  Every time I see “The Wrestler”, I’m immensely glad for his insane work ethic.
