"Sydney has a lot more at stake. She begins getting terrorizing phone calls, and it would seem that she is the killers next target. After being attacked by the killer and trapping herself in her room, she calls 911. While waiting, her boyfriend Billy climbs through her window, like he did the night prior. This time a cell phone falls out of his jacket, and Sydney rushes away from him. Dewey was waiting just outside the front door, along with a few other members of the local police. He is placed in custody until Sydney receives another phone call, proving Billy's innocence". Source: www.moviesmademe.com

"Somebody get Captain Obvious on the phone, because today's "Scream 4" news has his name all over it. It all started last year, with the news that series creator Kevin Williamson would be returning to his script-flipping horror series with an all-new trilogy set after the events of the original three movies (i.e. not a reboot). Things moved quickly from there, as the Arquettes committed to reprise their roles, as did Neve Campbell (following some uncertainty), and Williamson revealed some of his plans for the follow-up". moviesblog.mtv.com

"Being released back in 1996 the film is of course quite dated these days and some aspects of the film are laughable, Courtney Cox's mobile phone for one! Yet this film over the years has never lost any credibility with audiences, so much so that they've even done a revival of it 10 years after Scream 3 which goes to show just how much of an impact this film left on audiences around the world".

According to cnn.com: Video rental companies made big moves this week in the race to deliver movies to phones. All of them believe that owning mobile is a ticket to winning the other three screens -- computers, televisions and tablets -- because viewers want to pick up on one screen where they left off on another, just as they do when reading an Amazon Kindle e-book.

Lag Time: Streaming or downloading? Streaming clearly wins in terms of the amount of time you'll have to wait before a movie starts playing on your phone. If you are looking for a
cell phone plan just compare its advantages and drawbacks.

Video Quality: Although cell phone screens are too small for the HD formats used by larger screens, their screens are improving, and some phones ship with optional projectors for displaying a movie on a wall. In order to avoid dropouts, streaming services vary their bit rates, which is why they generally keep up to 20 versions of a given movie on file, each encoded at a different bit rate. Mobile movie-download services require a higher degree of customization for each device because the movies have to be stored on the phone, and various models handle that differently.

New Moon DVD: "extended scene: meeting Laurent"

Jake Gyllenhaal, pretty cool doing that in Prince of Persia

“I look pretty cool doing that,” says the soft-spoken Californian actor when interviewed in Santa Monica.

“But what you don’t know is the behind-the-scenes goofs. My arm and shoulder muscles were so big that the chest plate I wore prevented me from reaching up to grab the arrows,” he says.

“There were many funny takes of me doing that and in the end, they literally had to cut wider arm holes in the chest plate,” he says with a laugh.
Gemma Arterton and Jake Gyllenhaal in "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" (2010) Visual Guide (Scans).

Set in the mystical land of sixth-century Persia, he reluctantly teams up with the mysterious Princess Tamina (Gemma Arterton) to prevent an ancient dagger from falling into the hands of evil nobleman Nizam (Ben Kingsley).
The dagger contains the Sands of Time, which can reverse time and allows its possessor to rule the world.
“I’ve always loved watching action-adventure films and dreamt of being one of those characters as a kid. You know, like Indiana Jones and the cool, swashbuckling Errol Flynn flicks,” he says.“When I read Prince, I saw a clear role for me. This guy is wry, gets to do lots of fun stuff and best of all, is ‘bad’ and funny,” says the 29-year-old actor, who was once considered for the roles of Spiderman and Batman.
Gyllenhaal now has his own action figure line.

“Yeah, it’s crazy,” he says, with a laugh.

“It’s interesting to note that although the film is inspired by the popular video game of the 1980s, the platform game itself was inspired by action films like Raiders Of The Lost Ark.”
“I’m a physical person by nature, I love being active,” says Gyllenhaal, who is an avid cyclist and kung fu exponent.

For the film he learned parkour, which sees the environment as a jungle gym obstacle course. It was founded by David Belle.

“The role was incredibly acrobatic,” says Gyllenhaal.
“There is a scene where my character runs along a wall, which seems impossible, but Belle made it happen. It’s one of my favourite scenes from the film,” says Gyllenhaal of the film which was shot in Morocco and at Pinewood Studios in Britain.

He says he does many of the stunts himself, including a 10.6-metre jump with wire work. “I wanted to do everything”, he says.

“Why sign up for a film like this if you’re not game for some real action?”

"Greenberg" loves Los Angeles video

“There’s real vulnerability to him. And he’s trying to protect himself in the most basic way. And sometimes the best way to protect yourself is to withdraw and other times it’s to be aggressive. I think that’s why he’s totally understandable and ultimately very sympathetic.”
-Noah Baumbach describing Roger Greenberg.

Holy Rollers poster

Ari Graynor, Danny A. Abeckaser, Jesse Eisenberg and Justin Bartha, casting of "Holy Rollers" directed by Kevin Asch.
"Cinematical has received this exclusive poster for the Sundance hit Holy Rollers, starring Jesse Eisenberg, Justin Bartha, Ari Graynor, Danny A. Abeckaser and Q-Tip.

Based on a true story, the film follows an Orthodox Jewish kid (Eisenberg) who's lured into the flashy-yet-dangerous world of Ecstasy dealing via a drug ring with ties to an Israeli drug cartel that uses Hasidic Jews to smuggle pills from Amsterdam to New York City. Essentially, if you bought Ecstacy in the late '90s and lived in or around New York City, there's a good chance it came from these folks -- their operation was that massive.
I really loved how director Kevin Asch captured the Hasidic community; the little details and care he put into it without overcrowding the film with unessential shots or scenes. He provided just enough to color the background and make it so we sympathize with Eisenberg's character while he questions everything he's ever known in the hopes of obtaining everything he's always wanted.Jesse Eisenberg with Justin Bartha at the premiere of "Holy Rollers" - Sundance Film Festival on 25th January 2010.

Plus, Justin Bartha absolutely steals every scene he's in as the older, ex-Orthodox Ecstacy mentor".

There’s a scene where Sam and Yosef are racing on the Brooklyn Bridge towards the camera in slow motion while instrumental music plays over. It’s a beautiful scene, and made me think, “This is the happiest moment in Sam Gold’s life.” Source: gordonandthewhale.com

Jesse Eisenberg emerges from his trailer on the set of
"The Social Network" on 30th January, 2010.


"While Eisenberg is currently working on the role of Facebook.com founder Mark Zuckerberg in “The Social Network”, Asch is already developing his next two films:
Kevin Asch, director of "Holy Rollers".

“Great Neck” will be about growing up in a materialistic world in Great Neck, Long Island; and “Kings Highway” will focus on the rise of the Israeli Mafia in New York City. Both are set in the late 1980’s".
