Danny McBride is a rising star in the world of comedy.

He wrote the critically acclaimed indie feature The Foot Fist Way and has a role in two summer comedies: Pineapple Express and Tropic Thunder.

The actor recently spoke to ComingSoon.net about the unusual experience of having a pair of major films come out at once:

It's nuts. There's two big action comedies this summer and they come out a week apart from each other, which is crazy, but I guess the audience is the lucky ones. I've seen both these films and they're both so f*cking awesome and I really do feel like they're groundbreaking as far as summer comedies go.

It's like you haven't seen it like this, it's good. Three cheers for the R-rated comedy. I think it's a good thing as long as those movies are making money it makes things more interesting.

Pineapple Express and Tropic Thunder come out tomorrow and August 13, respectively.

Fans piling into IMAX theaters for The Dark Knight will soon be privy to a trailer for Eagle Eye. The to suspense thrilled will receive a simultaneous IMAX DMR release along with its 35mm opening on September 26.

In the movie, Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan are two strangers who become the pawns of a mysterious woman. She somehow knows their every move.

The characters realize they're being used to further her diabolical plot and must work together to outwit the woman before she has them killed.

That collective sigh of relief you can probably hear from all sides of the country?

It's coming from Kevin Smith, now that his next movie, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, has avoided an NC-17 rating.

The director has won an appeal to the Motion Picture Association of Americalower that figure to an R-rating. Spokeswoman Elizabeth Kaltman said Tuesday the rating was revised after the group's appeals board viewed the movie.

"We didn't set out to make an NC-17 film. That's just commercial suicide," Smith said.

Zack and Miri Make a Porno is due out October 31. It, stars Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks as best friends who try to make a homemade porn flick to dig themselves out of debt.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona has a couple things going for it:

1. It's written and directed by Woody Allen;
2. It stars Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson; i.e. something for men and women!

In case you need to know more about the movie that opens on August 15, here's its trailer:

Saul: I just got a shipment of Pineapple Express, the dopest dope I've ever smoked. Smellll it. It's like... God's vagina.

Dale Denton: How could he find us?
Saul: Umm, heat-seeking missiles, bloodhounds, foxes, barracudas.
Dale Denton: It's just... I'm kinda flabbergasted when you say things like that. It's weird.
Saul: Thank you.
Dale Denton: Not a compliment.

[Dale and Saul are running and Dale sees Saul jump into a dumpster]

Helena Bonham Carter won't reveal too much about her character in Terminator Salvation, but did she tell Sci-Fi Wire that Serena will be a villain.

"I kind of play a baddie, definitely a baddie," Bonham Carter said. "I don't know how much I'm allowed to say, but I'm a very bad person."

The actress added that she was pushed into the role by long-time boyfriend, director Tim Burton.

"Tim would have killed me if I hadn't done it, because he's such a Terminator fan. I've been in big movies before... Fight Club was big in a different way, and Charlie [and the Chocolate Factory] and Sweeney Todd were big, but I've never been in this kind of big popcorn action movie, a male one, an action one."

Taking a break from saving the world as Jack Bauer on 24, Kiefer Sutherland focuses on just saving his family in the upcoming horror movie, Mirrors.

In the film, Sutherland stars as Ben Carson, a former cop that must prevent evil forces from haunting his family via, you guessed it, mirrors. Here are a couple stills of the character:

For Josh Brolin, in his portrayal of George W. Bush for the movie W, we assume it's all about the incompetence.

Co-star Elizabeth Banks, who plays Laura Bush in the Oliver Stone movie, told the Los Angeles Times that playing the current First Lady was "all about the hair."

"Hair speaks volumes about every politician's wife," Banks said. "And I think you'll be impressed with my version of Laura Bush's very Republican hair. I did meet Laura once, in 2003, long before I knew I'd be playing her."

Asked about the movie's portrayal of the Bush family, the actress replied:

"The film really presents both sides. People who like George Bush will find many things in the movie to like and people who don't like George Bush will have their opinion validated as well. It's a fairly fair portrayal."

Following her gig as the First Lady, Banks will focus on making a porno with Seth Rogen. Sounds about right to us.

On October 3, we'll be treated to Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.

The film stars Michael Cera and Kat Dennings, as they spend one wild night in New York City. Check out the trailer now:

It's a day of news about sequels, as we've already provided insight about Transformers 2 and Goonies 2.

Now, Robert Downey Jr. is opening up about the next Iron Man installment. He recently outlined the idea behind this sequel to iesb.bet:

“Our goals are more of the same. The idea that he said he’s Iron Man in part 1…it’s one thing to say it, and it’s another thing to actually evolve to the point where you can live in a heroic fashion.

You know, they say, ‘The superhero movie always needs to follow…’ and I said who is that guy? Get him out of here! We want to do what worked for us last time, in a way that evolves.”

It's true. One of our favorite things about Iron Man was the way the movie moved away from superhero cliches towards something more satisfying: what was logical for the character, as oppoed to the genre.

“We’re talking about a guy who is put in an extraordinary circumstance, and the people that are around him, and how that creates a sense of family, and how that disrupts whatever forces that we have to say that are working [in his life]," the star of the upcoming Tropic Thunder said.

"I like the idea of an Iron Man 2 that you’re able to understand various points of view. You’re able to touch on some subjects that are a lot more far reaching, while still grounding it in entertainment."
