Dali Biopic is in the making!!

The life of the great Spanish surrealist Salvador Dali is finally to make it to the silver screen, starring Alan Cumming, and Judy Davis as the artist’s great love, Gala, and all shot in 3D. Philippe Mora, the film’s writer-director, said that he considered Dali’s life story to be just as incredible as his art.

The film, currently titled Dali 3D, begins with the artist semi-conscious in a hospital, where he overhears a doctor suggesting his life would make a great movie and it takes off from there.

“I want this to be the film that Dali would have wanted you to see,” said Mora. “True to his outrageous sense of humor, it will be simultaneously a surreal parody of what the artist would have wanted you to experience, a kind of crazed, artistic Inspector Clouseau. With his muse and wife Gala in the mix, it’s an extraordinary love story.”

The film is expected to be shot in the summer, in Spain, the UK, the US and Australia.

30 Awesome Disaster Movie Money Shots


When you get a few minutes, head over to io9 and view their list of the best disaster clips from some great movies.

Every great disaster movie has some moments of pure, epic destruction, where everything collapses, burns or blows up real good. Bonus points for destroyed landmarks and victim cameos. Here are 30 amazing money shots from the greatest disaster porn flicks.

For the purposes of this round-up we're defining a "disaster movie" as one where the main point of the film is the disaster. So Godzilla qualifies, butSuperman: The Movie doesn't. We also decided not to include any clips from the venerable 1970s Airport series, but you can watch some of thosehere, here and here.

Below are the splodiest, most cracktastic, scariest and most expensive-looking scenes of destruction from 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, Cloverfield, Armageddon, The Core, Deep Impact, and many other movies. It's in gallery format, so you don't have to wait for 30 videos to load in your browser. If you want to see it in non-gallery format, click here.

Black Sawn International Teaser Posters

I love these new teaser posters for the movie Black Swan, which stars Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, and Winona Ryder. Very simple and old school.

The film's story sees Natalie Portman play a ballet dancer given the chance of a lifetime when the prima ballerina of her company (Winona Ryder) is up for replacement with the start of a new season. But under pressure to perform from the company's director (Cassel), and unsettled by the arrival of a mysterious new rival (Kunis), Portman's Nina soon starts experiencing strange things. Are people conspiring against her, or is something even weirder going on?



Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side - a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.

Here is a shot of the official poster.
