‘SAW 5’ – Scare yourself with these 3 scenes!

Boy are you in for a treat! Lionsgate films just gave us these 3 clips of the 5th installment of SAW.

These films are never going to win any awards, but the appeal to the SAW franchise films are an anomalie to me. Who cares, though. Around Halloween, I just need a scare in my walk and the SAW films do a hell of a job in doing that.

Jigsaw and his apprentice Amanda are dead. Now, upon the news of Detective Kerry’s murder, two seasoned FBI profilers, Agent Strahm and Agent Perez, arrive in the terrified community to assist the veteran Detective Hoffman in sifting through Jigsaw’s latest grizzly remains and piecing together the puzzle. However, when SWAT Commander Rigg is abducted and thrust into a game, the last officer untouched by Jigsaw has but ninety minutes to overcome a series of demented traps and save an old friend or face the deadly consequences.

Jason Bourne 4 will be reality!

Trilogies are no longer the big thing in Hollywood. Universal is moving forward with a fourth Jason Bourne movie, tentatively titled Bourne 4. Although this news was first confirmed back in June, Variety announces today that Universal has hired a writer and is giving full support to the production in hopes of having it ready by 2010. Interestingly, Universal really did intend to end the series with The Bourne Ultimatum (as we saw with the ending of the film), but after it made $227 million at the box office, they decided to go ahead and make another. Ultimatum writer George Nolfi has been hired to pen the sequel.

As we outlined in the previous article, the fourth book in the Bourne series was written instead by Eric Van Lustbader, not Robert Ludlum, and thus the studio has decided to go down their own path choosing a story this time. Producer Frank Marshall said they’ll probably take Bourne “down south” to South America in the fourth film, but story details aren’t fully finalized. Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass, who directed both Supremacy and Ultimatum, will return again for Bourne 4. Considering The Bourne Ultimatum is still one of my favorite movies from last year, I’m very glad to hear that they’re continuing on. Especially because it’s the closest thing to becoming a new James Bond style franchise that could go on endlessly.

Jennifer Lopez in ‘Sex and the City’ sequel?

Jennifer Lopez wants to appear in the next ‘Sex and the City’ movie.’

‘The Wedding Planner’ star was a huge fan of the hit US TV show, and always wanted a cameo role, but is now hoping to be cast in the movie sequel. She is quoted as saying: “I adore the show and nearly popped up in the TV show, but then did ‘Will and Grace’ instead.”

A source said: “Jennifer has got her heart set on joining Carrie and the girls. The bosses are trying to think of a way of fitting her in without it being cheesy.” If Jennifer gets her wish, she wouldn’t be the first celebrity to appear in ‘Sex and the City’.

Actress Heather Graham and supermodel Heidi Klum both played themselves in past episodes. Former Spice Girls star Geri Halliwell appeared on the show in 2003, while her ex-bandmate Victoria Beckham is rumoured to have been lined up for the next film.

Penélope Cruz will be honored in Santa Barbara

Penelope Cruz — who’s appearing in two current films, “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” and “Elegy” — will be honored as the outstanding performer of the year at the Santa Barbara Film Festival, which runs Jan. 22-Feb.1. Cruz will be presented with the award at the Arlington Theatre on Jan. 31.

“There are few actresses who can today be described as international movie goddesses, and this year, with her exceptional work in ‘Elegy’ and ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona,’ Penelope Cruz has earned that description,” SBIFF executive director Roger Durling said.

Cruz was first introduced to American audiences in the Spanish films “Jamon, Jamon” and “Belle Epoque.” She frequently works with director Pedro Almodovar, appearing in his films “Live Flesh,” “All About My Mother,” “Volver,” for which she earned a best actress Academy Award nomination, and the upcoming “Los Abrazos Rotos.”
