$75,000 for every single damn minute. That my loyal readers is a ridiculous amount. Let’s see, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban want to turn the last 20 minutes of there film into a 3D scene, that amounts to a ridiculous $1.5 million and would take roughly 6-9 months for a whole movie.
Personally I think this would just be money thrown out the window. There are a multitude of movies, in fact, pretty much every movie I know and love are only the normal dimension and they still top the box office day in and day out.
The current number one is Disturbia, no 3D involved, the top grossing movie of all time, Titanic, grossly a hefty $600,000,000, no 3D to be seen. Although if we were to convert both of these into 3D it would cost $7.8 million to convert Disturbia and an unheard of $14.5 million for Titanic. What a gigantic waste of time.
Although I am going to put it out there, when I do go watch 3D movies it is a blast of a time and I enjoy it. But at the moment, the technology is just not advance enough to warrant such a spending spree, hopefully in the near future everything will be in full 3D and every cinema will be 3D. Just a desire of mine 
Up to $75 thousand per minute for 3D
A new poster for the Joker has just been revealed. This poster is looking quite frigging awesome and if it really is a fake they have done a damn good job on it. All the fakes lately have been causing quite a ruckus around the place but hopefully this one is real.

Crank 2 has just been confirmed by the good old fellows over at TheMovieBlog who interviewed Brian Taylor and Mark Neveldine (Writers and Directors of the original Crank) in there podcast. The writers and directors of the original had this to say about the sequel to the fast paced action packed Crank.
There will be a sequel to Crank yes. Prepare to Crank again. And you know the “is it a sequel or prequel” question… IT’S A SEQUEL. We’re not selling out and going prequel. We are picking up where the last movie left off.
Well to a person such as myself, I really enjoyed the refreshing new taste of the action in Crank and I can’t wait to see how they do the next one. Although I have no idea how the hell they are going to continue the story as Chev (played by Jason Statham) the main character has just hit the ground from a helicopter, so who knows what they are going to do, hopefully they don’t blow it because it has a lot of potential that’s for sure.
First pictures of Baz Luhrmann’s dramatic new flick are just surfacing on the internet now. The pictures are of Hugh Jackman who plays a cattle driver in the movie set in the period prior to World War II.
The plot goes a little something like this (taken from IMDB)
Luhrmann’s film is set in northern Australia prior to World War II and centers on an English aristocrat (Kidman) who inherits a ranch the size of Maryland. When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough-hewn cattle driver (Jackman) to drive 2,000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country’s most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin, Australia, by the Japanese forces that had attacked Pearl Harbor only months earlier.

Jennifer Hudson has been rumored to play the sould legend Aretha Franklin in her movie which is about to get underway which is based on Franklin’s life and the lead character is rumored to be the American Idol finalist Jennifer Hudson.
According to some reports Aretha Franklin has showed support to Hudson herself, saying that “Jennifer Hudson would be the ideal person to act as me.”
Personally I am with Franklin all the way, Jennifer Hudson played a great role as Effie White in Dreamgirls and I think would also play a great role as Aretha Franklin. Soul Queen could be a great title for the movie.
