Fox Searchlight Pictures has released the first trailer and poster for their upcoming film TABLE 19.
The film is directed by Jeffrey Blitz, with a story by Mark Duplass, Jay Duplass and Jeffrey Blitz.
Ex-maid of honor Eloise (Anna Kendrick) – having been relieved of her duties after being unceremoniously dumped by the best man via text – decides to hold her head up high and attend her oldest friend’s wedding anyway. She finds herself seated at the ‘random’ table in the back of the ballroom with a disparate group of strangers, most of whom should have known to just send regrets (but not before sending something nice off the registry). As everyone’s secrets are revealed, Eloise learns a thing or two from the denizens of Table 19.
Friendships – and even a little romance – can happen under the most unlikely circumstances.

The greatest love story ever told, starring…garden gnomes? In the upcoming GNOMEO AND JULIET, Shakespeare’s revered tale gets a comical, off-the-wall makeover. When feuding neighbors go at it on Verona Drive, the garden gnomes join the fight and it’s Red vs. Blue. Hunky blue gnome Gnomeo (James McAvoy) meets the rebellious red gnome Juliet (Emily Blunt) when they are both outside their yards on a quest for a rare flower in a near-by abandoned yard. Each disguised for their secret mission, neither realizes the other is actually the “enemy” and both are smitten. Once they discover each others true identity, they must convince their families that there is no reason to hate each other. With the help of cheeky frog Nanette and a hilarious plastic pink flamingo, they return to their yards only to find that world war three has broken out in the garden, complete with smashed gnomes and the killer uber-lawnmower “Terrafirminator” bent on total destruction.
This was one of those animated movies that you think is geared towards kids but ends up being so much fun for kids and adults alike. The voice casting was genius with the likes of Michael Caine (Lord Redbrick), Maggie Smith (Lady Bluebury), Patrick Stewart (William Shakespeare), Jason Statham (spot-on as the red gnome tough guy) and even Ozzy Osbourne as a dopey but loyal fawn. Throw in Hulk Hogan and Dolly Parton for some laugh-out-loud lines and you can’t go wrong.
One of the things I liked most was all the clever in-jokes and visuals. For those Shakespeare buffs paying attention, keep your eyes out for a brand of glue known as The Taming of the Glue, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern moving firm and Tempest Teapots.
What truly gave this movie its heart was the music. Executive producer Elton John provides a greatest-hits sound track, with each song perfectly framing the scenes where they are used. They capture not only the whimsy of the gardens and the gnomes, but also the sentiment of being young and in love. Listen to what Elton John says about the old and new songs and what it was like working with composer James Newton Howard courtesy of Hollywood.com.

So, lets take this back just a bit. For those of you that do not know… I collect gnomes. It started as a funny joke in college, and turned into a love for their whimsical little personalities! I have well over 30 now, and they all have names, such as Trogdor the Burninator, or King Diamond (who happens to ride a turtle). Why am I telling you all this? Because Touchstone pictures is releasing a new animated film… ABOUT GNOMES! My inner child is jumping up an down with excitement!!!
From Touchstone Pictures comes this newly released one-sheet for GNOMEO & JULIET and two new photos from their upcoming animated film.

One week. No Rules. See Owen Wilson & Jason Sudeikis in the new trailer for The Farrelly Brothers’ HALL PASS courtesy of Apple iTunes.
Synopsis from Apple:
Rick (Owen Wilson) and Fred (Jason Sudeikis) are best friends who have a lot in common, including the fact that they have each been married for many years. But when the two men begin to show signs of restlessness at home, their wives (Jenna Fischer, Christina Applegate) take a bold approach to revitalizing their individual marriages: granting them a “hall pass,” one week of freedom to do whatever they want…no questions asked. At first, it sounds like a dream come true for Rick and Fred. But it isn’t long before they discover that their expectations of the single life-and themselves-are completely, and hilariously, out of sync with reality.
From writers Bobby Farrelly, Peter Farrelly, Pete Jones, and Kevin Barnett, Warner Bros. Pictures’ HALL PASSwill be in theaters on February 25, 2011.
Simon Pegg alerted us to the trailer for his latest film, BURKE & HARE:

John Landis (AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON)? It’s been awhile since his 1998’s BLUES BROTHERS 2000. Good to see him back.
Synopsis:
BURKE & HARE is a comedic take on the true story of the 1828 Edinburgh body-snatchers William Burke (Simon Pegg) and William Hare (Andy Serkis). These two Irish entrepreneurs, spurred on by a chance meeting with a gorgeous actress (Isla Fisher), discover that a dead body can fetch a hefty price when the demands of the leading medical professors Dr. Knox (Tom Wilkinson) and Dr. Monroe (Tim Curry) reach beyond that of the local supply.
BURKE & HAREwill be released in the United Kingdom on October 29, 2010.
