“I live. I love. I slay…I am content.” – Conan The Barbarian

The most legendary Barbarian of all time will return Friday, August 19, 2011.

A quest that begins as a personal vendetta for the fierce Cimmerian warrior soon turns into an epic battle against hulking rivals, horrific monsters, and impossible odds, as Conan realizes he is the only hope of saving the great nations of Hyboria from an encroaching reign of supernatural evil.

Deftly adapted from the original works of Robert E. Howard and faithful to the mythology and psychology of his iconic character, Conan The Barbarian stars Jason Momoa, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang, Rose McGowan, Saïd Taghmaoui and Ron Perlman. The film is directed by Marcus Nispel, and written by Thomas Dean Donnelly & Joshua Oppenheimer and Sean Hood.

Visionary director Tarsem Singh, who has spun stuff like The Cell, The Fall, transports us in this epic tale of treachery, vengeance and destiny in Immortals. It looks rather stylish as a visually spectacular 3D action adventure.

The story concerns a power-hungry king razes ancient Greece in search of a legendary weapon, a heroic young villager rises up against him in a thrilling quest as timeless as it is powerful.

The brutal and bloodthirsty King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) and his murderous Heraklion army rampage across Greece in search of the long lost Bow of Epirus. With the invincible Bow, the king will be able to overthrow the Gods of Olympus and become the undisputed master of his world. With ruthless efficiency, Hyperion and his legions destroy everything in their wake, and it seems nothing will stop the evil king’s mission.

The movie opens in theaters November 11, 2011.

The Adventures of TinTin-The Secret of the… by Paramount_Australia

Combining the stories of The Crab with the Golden Claws, The Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham’s Treasure, the trailer looks like it captures Tintin’s (Jamie Bell) first meeting with Captain Haddock (Andy Serkis) along with the discovery of a clue to the treasure of his ancestor Sir Francis Haddock.

The two of them begin the adventure of finding out where the treasure is located. They are with a prison escapee who tried to get the treasure as well as. Then, there are Detectives Thompson and Thomson (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost) who bumble around and try to get the upper hand of the situation.

The digital cinematography is extraordinary. Steven Spielberg, who directs the movie, was significantly assisted by the producer Peter Jackson. Jackson hopes to direct the sequel .
The movie opens late 2011.

Syfy’s newest original scripted series Alphas is an action-packed thriller about five ordinary people brought together to form one extraordinary team.
