Mo-Cap Legend Andy Serkis wasn’t able to pull of an Oscar nom for his role in ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ but here at HollywoodStreams we wanted to be damned sure his performance was not forgotten. We scoured the film for every tasty acting morsel he melted on the screen with true primate physicality. Hats off to Mr. Serkis and I’m sure there will be a category for his talents in the near future. Until then we’ll wait for ‘The Hobbit’.

Joshua (@TheJovenshire) is wearing a Labyrinth shirt from nerdkungfu.com. You can find that one and other like it here http://www.nerdkungfu.com/Labyrinth_T_Shirts_s/281.htm Let’s take a look at some comic book news that may be affecting the movie world! . Hey movie buffs, I’m Joshua Ovenshire. Straight from our friends at The Hollywood reporter, DC comics announced today that they will be going back to the 1986 graphic novel “The Watchmen” by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons for a new set of comics. We’ll be seeing a series stories featuring all the different characters in their own storylines is a series called “Before Watchmen”. That’s right. All of these different stories will be showing us the individual characters BEFORE The Watchmen events take place. Moore, as the original creator is actually completely against this idea. But DC backs up their decision saying that enough time has passed and this is a way to keep the characters relevant. . Alan Moore was also very much against the movie adaptation that was done in 2009. And speaking of which, with DC going back to The Watchmen, does this mean, that we may see a prequel to the movie as well? Granted that in 2009, watchmen opened well with $55.2 Million, it only made $181 million worldwide. Seeing that it cost 130 to make, with such a low profit, I see a prequel being very unlikely. But really, it comes down to how the fans react and if the series of comics actually does well. . As for me, I’ve been enjoying DC lately. But don’t they cover enough back story, in the original Watchmen already? Do we really need to go back? The Watchmen is the highest grossing graphic novel of all time and redefined the genre. Who knows, this could be interesting. What do you guys think? Do you want to see a Watchmen prequel?

Hey guys thanks so much for tuning back into clevver movies, Im your host, Tatiana carrier! As you guys know, its Tuesday which means there are a handful of new movies out of bluray/dvd so we break it down and let you know what you should buy rent or download! . This week we have 3 top picks starting with Drive, which definitely makes it on my top films of 2011 list. Starring Ryan Gosling, this film is the story of A mysterious Hollywood stuntman, mechanic and getaway driver who lands himself in trouble when he helps out his neighbour. Darker than I had expected, but definitely worth skipping the rental and just buying…trust me on this one. . Next up we have IN TIME…In a future where people stop aging at 25, but are engineered to live only one more year, having the means to buy your way out of the situation is a shot at immortal youth. Here, Will Salas finds himself accused of murder and on the run with a hostage – a connection that becomes an important part of the way against the system. The film stars Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried and we think this is a great choice for you thrill seekers out there…or if you have the timberlake fever… . And finally, for those looking for a good laugh, we have the big year….this comedy stars owen Wilson, steve martin and jack black and is about three avid bird watchers who compete to spot the rarest birds in North America at a prestigious annual event. I mean the story line alone is ridiculous enough…combine that with the comedic chops of martin, black and Wilson, and we have a winner folks! . SO which of these three will you be checking out this week? Let us know by commenting below and be sure to keep it locked right here on clevver movies, Your number one source for movie news!

Evangeline Lilly Talks the hobbit! Hey guys thanks so much for tuning back into clevver movies, im your host Tatiana carrier with the latest on the hobbit! . Entertainment weekly recently spoke to Lilly about her upcoming role as a kickass warrior elf in the hobbit…and ofcourse we have the details! . When Lilly was asked about her character Tauriel, who’s a Mirkwood elf, and the skills she had to aquire to play that role, heres what she had to say! : “Yes, she is a warrior. She’s actually the head of the Elven guard. She’s the big shot in the army. So she knows how to wield any weapon, but the primary weapons that she uses are a bow and arrow and two daggers. And she’s lethal and deadly. You definitely wouldn’t want to be caught in a dark alley next to Tauriel.” . When asked if Tauriel was involved with the dwarves being captured…heres what lilly said, “I think basically what you’re asking is if she’s in the film very much. She’s not in the first film very much. She comes into the first film near the end, and has a very small part to play. Her role in the second film is much more involved. Although, I have to say, when I first read the scripts and took the job, she had a lot less going on in the second film. I think the role is becoming a bit more demanding than I had expected it to be. There’s a lot more for me to do now, which is a lot of fun, but it’s a little more pressure.” . Interesting wouldn’t ya think! As you guys know the hobbit and unexpected journey releases dec 14 2012! So let me know what you are most looking forward to seeing in the hobbit an unexpected journey! The battles? The new characters? Make sure you comment bloew and while your at it, subscribe to our channel to stay up to date on all of your hobbit updates!

Athletes Turned Action Stars – Top 5 Tuesday

http://bit.ly/clevvermovies – Click to Subscribe! http://Facebook.com/ClevverMovies – Become a Fan! http://Twitter.com/ClevverMovies – Follow Us! Hey guys, Tatiana Carrier here with ClevverMovies, and it’s Top 5 Tuesday. In honor of MMA fighter Gina Carano’s starring role in this week’s ‘Haywire,’ we thought we’d count down our favorite athlete-turned-action stars. . First up is Vinnie Jones. This British former soccer star turned his tough footballer image into an aggressive and intimidating acting persona, starring in Guy Ritchie’s ‘Snatch’ as Bullet-Tooth Tony and ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’ as Juggernaut. . Next up is the man who can slam a revolving door. Before becoming a pop culture icon, Chuck Norris was a nationally ranked martial artist. He rose to fame with ‘Walker Texas Ranger’ and a number of action films, but we know him best for his fitness infomercials and cameo in Dodgeball. We’re looking forward to seeing him in ‘The Expendables 2′ later this year. . Our number 3 pick is Jason Statham. Our favorite bad-ass bad boy onscreen was once a professional diver on Britain’s National Diving Squad. Statham rose to stardom after his roles in Guy Ritchie’s ‘Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels’ and ‘Snatch,’ but it wasn’t until he was given a starring role as ‘The Transporter’ that he was really able to reveal his bad-ass-ness. . Number 2 is Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. This WWE superstar made the move to film as ‘The Scorpion King’ in 2002, and hasn’t lost steam since. His versatility in both action and comedic roles have made him a superstar film actor, and he’s only been getting better with age. . And finally, our number one athlete turned actor can be none other than the governator himself, Mr. Ahr-nold Schwarzenegger. Before becoming a sci-fi film legend, he was an internationally renowned body builder. But after his roles in ‘Conan the Barbarian’ and ‘The Terminator’ that led to roles in ‘Total Recall,’ ‘Twins,’ and ‘Batman and Robin,’ Schwarzenegger has become a household name. . So there you have it! Let us know who your list would include, and be sure to check back next week for another Top 5 Tuesday. I’m Tatiana Carrier, thanks for tuning in.

http://bit.ly/clevvermovies – Click to Subscribe! http://Facebook.com/ClevverMovies – Become a Fan! http://Twitter.com/ClevverMovies – Follow Us! Hey hey, Tatiana Carrier here in Hollywood at the Clevver Movies headquarters and if you have wondering what exactly happens when technology becomes smarter than we are; the answer is a ‘Robopocalypse’ and leave it to the genius director Steven Spielberg to make a big splash. Spielberg’s next big blockbuster is an adaptation of the bestselling Daniel H Wilson Novel and screenplay written by Drew Goddard. . No doubt that whatever Spielberg touches will turn to gold which is why he is very selective when deciding what to tackle. Spielberg said it all starts with the script: it’s not worth taking myself away from my family if I don’t have something I’m really passionate about. . So what exactly is a Robopacalypse? Spielberg said in a recent interview QUOTE “Robopacalypse is a movie about a global war between man and machine. The movie takes place in 15 or 20 years and will be a future that we can relate to. It’s about the consequences of creating technologies which make our lives easier, and what happens when that technology becomes smarter than we are. It’s not the newest theme, it’s been done throughout science fiction, but it’s a theme that becomes more relevant every year.” . What do you guys think of this futuristic phenomenon?

However, Justin Chang from variety disagreed, he said, “Reasonably swift and effective.” . And finally, Todd Mccarthy from Hollywood Reporter wasn’t RAVING about the flick, but appreciated the gritty raw nature of the flick….he said, “The gritty style only accentuates the increasingly far-fetched dramatics in Contraband, an involving, atmospherically grungy mid-register thriller.” .
