The Notable Films of 2010: Part Five

23 December 2009 10:10 AM, PST | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »

Hippie Hippie Shake

Opens: 2010

Cast: Cillian Murphy, Sienna Miller, Max Minghella, Emma Booth, Lee Ingleby

Director: Beeban Kidron

Summary: Follows the love story of Oz editor Richard Neville and Louise Ferrier. Neville and his cohorts launch the London edition of Oz amidst the 1960s counterculture and are subsequently put on trial for distributing a sexually explicit issue.

Analysis: One of the most troubled productions in Working Title's history, 'Hippie' began development back in 1998 but failed to get beyond script stage both in 1999 and in 2002 when "Elizabeth" helmer Shekhar Kapur was attached to direct. Filming finally got underway late 2007 with director Beeban Kidron in charge and shooting seemed to proceed without issue aside from feminist author Germaine Greer being vehemently unhappy about being depicted on film.

Actually the film scored quite a bit of free press for a skinny dipping scene where full-frontal shots of actress Sienna Miller shooting the sequence »

69 Eyes Premiere 'Dead N Gone' Video

22 December 2009 9:31 AM, PST | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »

The latest video from Finnish vamp-rockers The 69 Eyes is Dead N Gone, directed once again by the band's go-to celeb director Bam Margera. The San Francisco-shot video promotes the new single from their smash album Back In Blood, one of the best dark-rock entries of 2009. It's pretty hard to top the sexy supremacy of their previous video Dead Girls are Easy, but these guys know how to rock the dark side, so you know it'll sound good. Flip it over, check it out and let us know what you think... While the visual storyline is a bit too emo for my liking (the song is about a bitter breakup, after all), you can't say frontman Jyrki69 and crew are anything less than supremely cool throughout... and at least you get to »

Jackass 3-D: Why Not Go D-Box as Well?

20 November 2009 7:41 AM, PST | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

Somehow, we knew it was coming. With the ever-growing need to make everything and anything a 3D movie event, Hollywood is finally (and I use that lightly) taking things too far. According to our friends at Cinematical, a new Paramount Pictures release slate for 2010 has a listing for Jackass 3-D. Yes, you read that right -- not just a clever title, but an actual 3-dimensional sequel in the Jackass franchise, a chaotic follow-up to 2006's Jackass: Number Two. Things have been quite on the homefront for Johnny Knoxville and his gang of goons since releasing Number Two in '06, a movie that was made for around $12 million and grossed nearly $85 million worldwide. It seems like a no-brainer for Paramount, who is yet to comment on this story. Why wouldn't they want to make another cheap movie that grosses big, no matter the quality? And why not do it in 3-D?

Brace Yourself for 'Jackass 3D'

19 November 2009 5:31 PM, PST | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »

By Cinematical

The Paramount slate for 2010 in our inbox happens to list a "Jackass 3-D," with a release date to be determined. Johnny Knoxville and company don't seem too busy of late, and even with the eye-popping added dimension, this sounds like a relatively cheap production to give the go-ahead to. If Wikipedia is to be believed (I know), Bam Margera confirmed in a a much more recent interview for a Finnish newspaper that filming would begin this January around the world.

Is Jackass 3 in 3D Arriving in 2010?

19 November 2009 3:09 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

It seems someone let the cat out of the bag a bit early. Thanks to William Goss spotting Jackass 3D on Paramount’s 2010 schedule, it seems the adventures of Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera and Steve-o are going to continue on movie screens….but this time we’re going to get them in 3D! While I thought the first Jackass movie was an amazing cinematic achievement, I didn’t think the second movie was worth anyone’s time and most of it played like a long deleted scene. Of course I’ll be the first one in line for a 3D Jackass movie…but after my recent experiences on a movie shooting in 3D, I’m not 100% sold this is really happening. My explanation after the jump:

While I cannot tell you where I was, I can use what I saw and learned on set to explain why this Jackass 3D movie might not happen. »

'Jackass 3-D' is Happening

19 November 2009 12:50 PM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Back in 2007, our own Christopher Campbell (who's back on staff, baby!) told us that, back in 2006, a third Jackass film seemed like a sure thing in the wake of Jackass: Number Two. Steve-o told Howard Stern then that they'd begin shooting at the start of 2008...

Cut to 2009, and the Paramount slate for 2010 in our inbox happens to list a Jackass 3-D, with a release date to be determined. Johnny Knoxville and company don't seem too busy of late, and even with the eye-popping added dimension, this sounds like a relatively cheap production to give the go-ahead to. If Wikipedia is to be believed (I know), Bam Margera confirmed in a much more recent interview for a Finnish newspaper that filming would begin this January around the world.

The 69 Eyes – Back In Blood (Musick Review)

27 August 2009 6:12 AM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

The Helsinki Vampires are indeed back again, however they are trading their sleaze glam and their "Dead Cool" Goth Rock image for a new gritty metal edge. This time around, the act pushes aside completely the notion of being a romantically inspired act and takes up the complete mantle of power stage rockers. When the act made their first big splash in 2005 when skating legend Bam Margera directed the “Lost Boys” video, they were billed by many music magazines as “The Saviors of Gothic Rock”, a title that has never sat well with yours truly, any more than I would say Manson was “Goth’s Salvation”. Neither act has really spent any length of time wanting to further the music scene that their respective record producers felt they should be pigeon holed into. Admittedly however, The 69 Eyes had a campy fun charm that hooked U.S. fans instantly and with »

Margera Desperate To Save Marriage

5 August 2009 5:11 AM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Jackass star Bam Margera has started taking antidepressants and seeing a counsellor in a desperate bid to save his crumbling marriage, according to reports.

The 29-year-old prankster is trying to salvage his relationship with partner Missy, which appeared to be over after he embarked on a four-day drinking binge ending in his hospitalisation last month.

He told reporters at the time, "I may be getting a divorce... booze helps."

But the daredevil is hoping to reconcile with his wife, and has agreed to attend couples counselling twice a week, reports TMZ.com.

Margera has also started to take Lexapro, a medication that treats emotional disorders, to control his mood swings after the star admitted his wife "thinks I have a split personality, like Jekyll and Hyde".

The couple married in February 2007. »

Bam Margera Hospitalized for Possible Overdose

Bam Margera didn't have such a great weekend. TMZ reports that the Jackass star was whisked away to the hospital on Sunday by paramedics who rushed to his West Chester, Pennsylvania, home after receiving a 911 call about a "possible overdose." Apparently, Bam didn't learn much from his Jackass co-star Steve-o's experiences with drugs. Coming to Bam's rescue on the PR end of things is his mother, April Margera, who called in to Philly radio station Wmmr on Monday to downplay the whole "took too many drugs" aspect of the story. April told the radio station that her son had become "severely dehydrated" while »

Fango Musick Exclusive: Interview with Dope Stars, Inc.

14 April 2009 10:00 PM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

Founded in 2003, Italian glam-cyberrockers Dope Stars Inc. are an interesting band. They have the look, sound, and track record to entitle them to a plethora of rockstar attitudes. However, after interviewing them, I discovered that they’re just like us: fans of music and horror movies. Throughout this interview it’s clear that these influences have factored into the gradual development of the band. It’s also clear that they’re just average guys, working hard to make their dreams become flesh, and to make their music become art. A few weeks ago I reviewed their forthcoming Ep release of Criminal Intents/Morning Star for Fangoria Musick (read that here). When I got it from Metropolis Records I was blown away: it was like Industrial had mated with Glam Rock in some kind of weird Kirk-on-Spock porno! I immediately got in touch with Dsi, sent like twenty emails back and forth, »
