Cox Talks Scream 4!

Courteney Cox has been confirmed to appear in the new Scream for a while now, along with series veterans David Arquette and Neve Campbell, but not much else is known. It was recently revealed that Wes Craven will be at the helm to direct, but what everyone wants to know are plot details.

Cox recently spoke to the Associated Press and revealed some tidbits about Scream 4.

Courteney Cox red carpet

"There are really only a few of us that survived," Cox said, but denying rumors that her character, reporter Gale Weathers, and Arquette's Dewey Riley will be offed at the beginning of the fourth installment. 

"They're probably back living in Woodsboro," Cox added, "I think that he's probably still deputy, and I've had a lot of kids. I don't know. I'm probably miserable, and then I'm sure a lot of murdering will happen."

Screenwriter Kevin Williamson adds, "there are a lot of twists and turns, so I can't promise anything. There are a lot of moving pieces, so we'll see -- but if you're a 'Scream' fan, I think you're really going to like it."

Reel Movie Trailers: Bad Lieutenant Port of Call New Orleans

In what may be the most bizarre movie to get a general release in America, Nicolas Cage plays a rogue detective in post-Katrina New Orleans who is as devoted to his job as he is to scoring drugs. Hot on the trail of the killer of five Senegalese immigrants, Cage must battle his inner demons while wading through the city's dark underbelly. Eva Mendes plays a prostitute Cage's detective is involved in a torrid relationship with, and Val Kilmer plays Cage's disaffected partner on the force. Also of note is a turn by rapper Xzibit.

Directed by legendary German filmmaker Werner Herzog, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call Los Angeles plumbs the depths of humanity's dark side while delivering some bizarre laughs. Check it all out in the trailer!

Bad Lieutenant opens in theaters November 20, 2009.

2012 Decimates the Box Office

It's confirmed: audiences love to see stuff blow up, no matter what the season.

Roland Emmerich's disaster film 2012 blew away the box office with an estimated $65 million, making it the seventh largest opening for November, and the biggest moneymaker this year since July.

2012 toppled the Jim Carrey animated film A Christmas Carol to number two, which brought in $22.3 million, a drop of only 26% from the previous weekend. Coming in third with only $6.2 million, the George Clooney comedy The Men Who Stare at Goats.

The micro-budget juggernaut Paranormal Activity only raked in about $4.6 million this weekend, but that puts the film's total officially over the $100 million mark, an incredible feat for a film that cost only $15,000 to produce.

Here's a quick list of the top 5 this weekend:

  1. 2012 - $65 million
  2. A Christmas Carol - $22.3 million
  3. The Men Who Stare at Goats - $6.2 million
  4. Precious - $6 million
  5. Michael Jackson This is It - $5.1 million

Kristen Stewart on How to Break Up With a Vampire

While Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are busy discussing whether Edward Cullen or Jacob Black would win in a fight, Kristen Stewart is all about the work.

Stewart recently told ComingSoon.net about the difficulties of pulling off the momentous break-up scene between Bella and Edward.

Bella and Edward

"Reading it, it's so iconic. There's nothing like that moment in reality even. It's not even like a normal breakup scene. I know what's it like to get broken up with but I don't know what it's like to get broken up with by a vampire who I've now been physically and chemically altered by," said Stewart.

"Suddenly you take an addict, you take whatever they're addicted to away from them and there's withdrawal. So that was the most intimidating scene in the entire movie. I don't know how to explain how I did it... I mean, the breakup scene that I did with Rob, that's not where it happens yet. That's not where I was intimidated. That was still, like she doesn't even believe it yet. It's when he goes, the absence of him that I was scared of," she continues.

"Basically, literally having the equivalent of like a death scene but stay alive and get up and keep walking. It was hard. It was really intimidating. I still don't know. I've seen the movie. I really like the movie but I don't know if anyone ever really would've been able to bring that to life the way that Stephenie [Meyer] writes it."

Sounds intimidating. Miss Stewart has plenty more insight into Bella's character in the rest of the interview, which you can read in full over at ComingSoon.net.

You can make up your own mind as to whether she pulled off the break-up when New Moon hits theaters on November 20.

Taylor Lautner on Edward Vs. Jacob: "Still Up in the Air"

While Robert Pattinson says Edward Cullen would definitely win in a fight with Jacob Black, Taylor Lautner isn't so sure.

Jacob Black Topless

"We were actually discussing this on set, it's funny we were like "who would win in a fight between Jacob and Edward," because there's a scene outside Bella's house where Edward grabs my shoulder and he's mad at me and Jacob doesn't take that. So he takes his arm and rips it off," says Lautner.

"And at that moment, Jacob would transform into a wolf and we're having this discussion that got really deep, we're like "if I were to poof into a wolf right now, what would happen? Who would win?" I don't know, our discussion points were like "usually, we're with our pack so if I'm without my pack, am I gonna be weaker?" So I honestly don't know. That discussion is still up in the air. We should probably get Stephenie Meyer on the line and ask her."

All antics aside, Lautner spoke candidly in and interview about how his life has changed since being cast as Jacob Black, including how he bulked up to reprise his role as the hunky werewolf. Check it out over at ComingSoon.net!

Robert Pattinson Says Edward Would Kick Jacob's Ass

Only a week until New Moon hits theaters and the cast is hot on the PR path.

Robert Pattinson recently sat down for a lengthy interview with Comingsoon.net, where he was asked who would win in a fight himself and Taylor Lautner, and if the outcome would be the same for their respective characters.

"I don't know. I did hear the other day that Taylor had agreed to an interview where the interviewer was going to fight him. I don't think that I'd ever agree to that and also looking at Taylor's martial arts videos from when he was like nine I really wouldn't want to do anything. Maybe if I had some kind of weapon. Edward and Jacob? I don't know. I think it's actually a fact that Edward would win. I think. If I've read the books correctly. So I guess I can hold onto that for my ego."

The rest of the interview contains a lot of insight into Pattinson's perception of the film, the characters, and himself now that he's become a hot commodity in Hollywood. It's worth a read, so head on over to Comingsoon.net if you're interested.

New Moon opens in theaters everywhere on November 20.

Rambo 5 Back on Track

Sylvester Stallone is hard at work on The Expendables, but has taken the time to address the plot of the next Rambo installment.

Stallone has told his #1 fansite StalloneZone.com that he's changing the plot of Rambo 5 back to the originally proposed "Rambo Goes to Mexico" storyline:

"I’m letting you know that Rambo has changed course and the story about hunting the man/beast will be done using another character in the lead. RAMBO himself will be heading over the border to a violent city where many young women have vanished .

There will be blood."

As was reported earlier, the next film will follow Rambo as he fights his way through human traffickers and drug lords to rescue a young girl abducted near the U.S.-Mexico border.
