Yup! Our very own Tobey Maguire has finally decided to quit one of the biggest movie tiles! Not only Tobey, but even the rest of the cast and crew have now been changed! Sam Raimi reportedly ended his participation due to doubt that he could not meet the planned May 2011 release date.
Now, it is being said that the entire story is going to start all over again, which means right from the high school days of Peter Parker! It might also have Venom as an anti hero and not as a villain like in Spider Man 3. According to sources, the new series will be directed by Marc Web. It is also being said that Tobey, after leaving the 4th installment of the multi-million dollar franchise, came into the rescue for the project by recommending Zack Efron to be the next Peter Parker/Spider Man!
The 22 year old High School Musical star didn’t confirm the news, saying that he hasn’t been approached with any offer to play Spider man as on now.
If you ask me, Zack Efron could be a fine choice for the role, but it would be very difficult to replace Tobey with Zack for the super role! What are your thoughts regarding this?
James Cameron’s Avatar is at the verge of hitting the theatres and the heat is at its peak! It’s a 3-D science fiction epic film written and directed by James Cameron which will be released by 20th Century Fox on December 16, 2009.
The making of the movie was planned long back in 1990’s because of the unavailability of the technology and the graphics required to bring it alive then! And the wait has resulted in the best way it could ever have! The movie boasts its budget of over 300 million which is quite evident from the kind of special effects animation the movie has to give!
The plot of the movie goes like this…..
We enter the alien world through the eyes of Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. But despite his broken body, Jake is still a warrior at heart. He is recruited to travel light years to the human outpost on Pandora, where corporations are mining a rare mineral that is the key to solving Earth’s energy crisis. Because the atmosphere of Pandora is toxic, they have created the Avatar Program, in which human “drivers” have their consciousness linked to an avatar, a remotely controlled biological body that can survive in the lethal air. These avatars are genetically engineered hybrids of human DNA mixed with DNA from the natives of Pandora… the Na’vi.
Reborn in his avatar form, Jake can walk again. He is given a mission to infiltrate the Na’vi, who have become a major obstacle to mining the precious ore. But a beautiful Na’vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake’s life, and this changes everything. Jake is taken in by her clan, and learns to become one of them, which involves many tests and adventures. As Jake’s relationship with his reluctant teacher Neytiri deepens, he learns to respect the Na’vi way and finally takes his place among them. Soon he will face the ultimate test as he leads them in an epic battle that will decide nothing less than the fate of an entire world. (via avatarmovie.com)

Now on with the review…
The album kicks off with the first hit single “Straight Through My Heart”! The song is a really hip-sync-pop number composed by RedOne. It has all the things needed to be a club hit. Their voices are perfectly synced, blending nicely with the lyrics and the beats! “Bigger” is the second song in the album and is the next video single from the album. The song is really amazing. Some other dance RnB style songs are “Bye Bye Love”, “All Of Your Life (You Need Love)”, Masquerade etc! All of ‘em are simply awesome! “If Knew Then” is an RnB song, which is sung so brilliantly by the boys, that is automatically makes you feet tap to the beets!
“PDA” is another song, which has grabbed instant attention of the listeners! It is a completely different song that you’ve ever heard from the boys, with cheesy lines like “kissing and touching with my hands all over your booty”! The boys sound damn brilliant!
Then there are some heart touching songs like “Shattered” and “Undone”, both of which are really amazing! “Shattered” just stands out!! Its one of my favs! The title track “This Is Us” was criticized a bit saying that the boys repeat the same three words many times! Come On! The song is really really good! The music has such an awesome soothing tune which takes you to an entirely different world! “She’s A Dream” is the song, which all the four of the boys have composed together with T-Pain! The song starts with “hoo-haa” which at first makes us feel as if it were a dance song, but turns out to be silent song instead!
The only song which I didn’t find as good as the rest of the songs is “International Luv”, which is a Bonus Track! Wait… I didn’t say that the song is bad! What I am saying is that the song isn’t as good as the rest of the songs, but it is good.
Well… I am also going to write a few words about the leaked songs coz I just couldn’t get enough of the boys! To start with this section, I’ll like to begin with “Hologram”! It is such a brilliant piece of talent! The only reason for the song not being able to make to the final version of the album is the fan reviews about the leaked songs before the album was release! Before the song was finalized, people started criticizing the song and now after listening to the final version, they are regretting what they did! Another leaked song is “Fallen Angel”. I don’t have any idea why this song was not included in the album myself. The song is really good with really awesome lyrics.
The boys have at last come together for the new album “This Is Us” which is an incredible album. Take my word for it. I’ve been listening to the album continuously since I laid my hands on it. But I’m not here to talk about the album or review the album, the review is going to be published by the author of this blog in a few days. Maybe we’ll do a combined post.
Hmm. Back to this post … I’m here to talk about the album’s 1st single – “Straight Through My Heart” video.
Although the song didn’t make much impact in the US it’s a great hit everywhere else with everyone praising it for the cool lyrics and style. Them the video was released and everyone was like – “What the fuc* was that?”, “What’s going on?”, “This doesn’t make any sense”, “bad” and so on.
OK… I admit it, the first time I viewed it, I was confused and not at all impressed. It all felt wrong, like there were lots of loose strings and gaps.
What you’ve got to understand here is in this video they’ve tried to fm things line old times. Remember “Everybody”, “The Call”. Those videos were incredible. The boys weren’t just singing, there was story in the video, it was fun and the dance moves were good.
In the last two albums the videos were good, synced with the songs very nicely but they were not his or fun (nor was the music). So in the latest video, there is a bit of “Everybody”, a bit of “The Call”, and “Inconsolable”… This combination provided you understood the video is pretty good.
This video has got “the singing”, “the dance”, a cool theme (read vampire), and a little bit story too.
I’ll not bla, bla more … Here’s the explanation -
“At the beginning, the introduction describes BSB as the Daywalker (a kind of Vampire Hunter). But in some other Movies, we see that Daywalker are the guys who have ½ human and ½ Vampire blood and they stand by human side to against Vampire. They got Vampire strength and are not burned by the sunshine like human. That’s why at the end BSB show their big eyeteeth and blood eyes.
At the middle of the video, the Vampire girl goes hunting at the nightclub. After chose the prey which is the blond girl, she begins the hunt. Unfortunately our Hunters already ambushed her in the guises of the club singers. At the edge of the hunt, suddenly water in the roof pours down (this part should be understood as Holy Water which scares Vampire). Then the Vampire girl feels confused, lose control, dizzy. At that time, Nick reaches a hand to her. She thought that he is trying to help her out of this crisis. And BSB has ½ Vampire blood so she thought they were friends. In a stifling space with blood red light and Holy Water is pouring down, she had no resistance never mind Nick was guiding her to another place. Brian, Howie and Aj covered behind. They clocked doors to block way behind. Nick exploited the confuse of her, then throw her out of the room which the sun is rising. BOOM! DONE! Vampire girl died! BSB stepped out calmly full of pride with eyeteeth and blood eyes under the sun. Mission complete!”
Now watch the video here, you’ll like it.
Check back in a few days time to read the “Backstreet Boys – This Is Us” album review.

Yup! the game is out and already ruling the charts!
Need For Speed – Shift is the thirteenth installment to the title! Last year, “Undercover” was released, which was a kind of remake of their highest successful installment named “Most Wanted”.
“Shift” was announced in January this year(2009) as part of a three-game announcement that includes Need For Speed: Nitro and Need For Speed: World Online.
The game had been under development for 2 years!! The game involves many new advancements, highly detailed in-car view to name one! While playing, the player can actually see how the driver in the game shifts the gear in between to make it more realistc. And if this isn’t realistic enough for you, then more exiting feature like, a highly detailed car crash sound effects have and a temporary slight blur effect on the the screen when the car crashes as well as a sharp gasp of breath from the driver before a collision.
Here is a video of the review of the game…
The game has been released for every major consoles like PS3, X-Box 360 and even PCs’.
And now as I wrap it up, I’ll leave you with the exciting teaser of the game!
Yes Sir! It is now official that Backstreet Boys’s new album named “This Is Us” is coming out on Oct 06th this year! The fans are bursting with craze for the new album!
This news was first given by Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell on Twitter! And recently, Backstreet Boys themselves announced that the news is now official! As soon as the news came up, it became one of the hottest topics online and went up to become one of the trending topics on Twitter for a long time!
Some of the confirmed tracks from the album are:-
“Straight Through My Heart” (STMH) (Nadir “RedOne” Khayat)
“Bigger” (Max Martin)
“PDA”
“Bye Bye Love”
“She’s a Dream”
Recently, they released a new single on radio and it is already a blockbuster! The new single is named “Straight Through My Heart” and is based on R&B Pop style of music! Earlier it was decided that the song “PDA” will be released as the single, but it was ultimately it decided that “STMH” would be the first single! The boys have returned to the dance style after a long time! The song has been produced by The RedOne! The song will be soon available on iTunes for buying!
Wanna listen to the song? Here it is…
How did you find the song? I just loved it straight through my heart!!!
The poster at the top of this post is a pic which was shot in a photo shoot recently for the new album!
Note: PLEASE don’t download songs illegally from the internet! Show your love for songs and your favorite artists by buying the original cds and DVDs and help erase piracy!
OK! So the most awaited movie of the year finally released yesterday! It has already broken the midnight release record of Batman: Dark Knight which was about 18 million and has made 21 million the first night itself! Wow!
Now, about the movie…. In my oppinion, I would give it 6/10! I wanted to give 10 but just can’t and I’ve stated the reason in the negatives.
There are many moments in the movie which are really rib tickling like a love potion scene with Ron Weasly, a luck potion scene of Harry Potter etc. I am not going into the story so that I don’t spoil your fun!
Now some positives and negatives!
Positives:
Daniel Radcliff rocked! He acted brilliantly! Not only him, but also Emma Watson, Rupert Grint everyone was just wonderful.
Special effects were also outstanding!
Negatives:
The only negative according to me was that a few important parts have been deleted from the movie if you go by the book, which makes the movie feel incomplete. That’s the reason of giving 6 on 10! It could happen that if you don’t know the story from the book, you might not get a clear picture of the story which the movie tries to explain! Reportedly, the next part of the series is going to be in 2 parts, i.e. 2 separate movie for the same book and the next movie might begin with the scene which should have been the climax of this movie.
In all, you’ll enjoy the movie for sure! Tell me how you found the movie?
The chipmunks are going to return this Christmas!!! The trailer is out on the Internet! Well, it came out 1-2 months back, but still posted it!
This time, its going to be like this… David Seville (Jason Lee) sends the chipmunks to school thinking that it is good for them! But the chipmunks don’t like the idea of being around so many human kids.
On the other side, Ian Hawke (David Cross) keeps his search for more talking and singing animals on, so that he can have his revenge on the chipmunks and David!!! And eventually he finds the chipettes who are perfect for the job!
What more? Our heroes find these Chipettes at their school and then begins the love and revenge story!!!
Reportedly, the next part of the series is going to be in 2 parts, i.e. 2 separate movie for the same book and the next movie might begin with the scene which should have been the climax of this movie.
