Good news for fans of martial art movies, Jackie Chan is planning to film a new Hollywood action comedy.

After the success of “Kung Fu Panda” and “The Forbidden Kingdom,” Jackie will play a role of a Chinese spy working undercover on loan to the U.S. government in the upcoming project “The Spy Next Door.” Producer Robert Simonds, in an email message, revealed that the film would be a cross between “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” and “Big Daddy.” The shooting date is expected to be in the middle of October.

Soloman So, the executive of Jackie Chan’s company JC Group, confirmed the project but refused to give any additional details. He also said, since Chan is a member of Screen Actors Guild, the project may be delayed if the Screen Actors Guild fails to reach an agreement with Hollywood studios.

Anyway, I’m excited about this new movie because I just love Jackie Chan and his unique style of Kung fu. Hopefully nothing goes wrong!

      Last weekend I went to see Hellboy 2 with my boyfriend at a theater, and once again, I was amazed by the visual effect and fight scenes in the movie.  Very good and fast-paced actions; the visual effect has been improved compared to Hellboy I.  I thought it was cute that the producers showed what Hellboy looked like when he was a young kid, and that is something that the audience didn’t see in the first Hellboy movie, which is quite interesting and allows the audience to compare and contrast the differences between Hellboy as a child and Hellboy in adulthood.  Of course, his love life with Liz and Ape’s growing love for the Princess of Nadua are another focal points throughout the movie.  Particularly in the scene when Ape and Hellboy (They are drunk!) are listening to and singing the classic love song, “I can’t smile without you” by Barry Manilow is a “big plus” to the show and very comical.  Everybody in the theater was laughing out loud when they saw this part, and this song has stayed in my mind for a while.  If you are interested to listen to the full version of the song, click on this link:

If you are a hellboy fan or somebody who enjoys action movies (like me) and likes romance, definitely go see Hellboy II: the Golden Army.  It’s worth it!

Megan Fox was told by Transformers director, Michael Bay that she must pack on 10lbs of weight before they start shooting Transformers: Rise of the Fallen.

Fox News reports:

“I should have toned up for ‘Transformers’ but I’m really lazy. I had to put on weight,” she told Pop Tarts. “I’d lost a lot of weight and got really scrawny, but I was told I had to put on size for ‘Transformers’ because Michael [Bay, the director] doesn’t like skinny girls.”

While Michael Bay is getting credit for putting Megan Fox on the map due to the scene where she erotically opens up the hood of a car/robot, Fox recently told Daily Star that she would rather do more arty films, preferably in the nude.

“I would love to do a movie naked – it would be beautiful. No one dares make that kind of film today. They did it in the 1930s in an arty way, so why not now?”

Um, Megan those kinds of movies are called porn. If you want to endeavor in that type of movie making style, I’m sure there is not a man out there that won’t be behind you all the way.

Finally! Bringing the 80’s back to show the kids what they’ve been missing. The classic cartoon will be coming to life in a live action/animated movie.

David Stem and David Weiss, Shrek 2 and Shrek the Third writers, are set to pen the screenplay after bosses at Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures bought the rights to a Smurfs movie.

The idea is for Smurfs to be a “hybrid” film a la Alvin and the Chipmunks, where the Smurfs would be rendered in CG and would interact with live action actors.

The Smurfs first appeared in 1958, when they were created by Belgian cartoonist Pierre Culliford.

They later starred in a U.S.-made Hannah Barbera cartoon, which ran from 1981 to 1990.

Columbia co-president Doug Belgrad tells Variety:

”The Smurfs are one of the best-known franchises, and among the most beloved collection of characters in the world.

“We’re very excited to introduce a new generation to (characters) Papa Smurf, Smurfette and the other smurftastic Smurfs in all their glory.”
