6th April 2011 Round-Up

Were half way through the week! Nearly time for the weekend but let's look at what happened today first though yeah?

1. Britney premiers her new video!

It's fantastic. When the words '21st December 2012' pop on the screen, you think to yourself, 'well this can't be good' but it turns out it's pretty darn good! Better than 'Hold It Against Me' I reckon. She seems alot more comfortable to me.  What do you think? Has Britney still go it? Or did that spark go when her hair did?


2. GaGaVision No. 41.

Are you excited for Judas? Me either.


3. What the hell man?!


Warner Bros and MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) have ordered that The Hangover Part II's  trailer should be removed from theatres across America! While they haven't commented why they've decided to do that, the trailer does contain some touchy subjects such as the use of the words 'gay boy', 'bitches' and 'whores' and shows Zach Galifianakis's character Alan making a monkey pretend to wank and elderly Thai man, while saying "When a monkey nibbles on a weenus, it's funny in any language.' I could understand them pulling it if it were on TV, but the trailer was being showed infront of Jake Gyllenhaal's new film Source Code, which will have a mature audience. Doesn't really seem to make sense to me. Check out the trailer for yourselves and see what you think of it.

The BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) said cinemas could only show the teaser trailer, not the full length. Crazy man. 


4. My beloved Lauren Conrad has new books on the way!

I have loved L.C since the beginning so I'll report anything about her. This is great news if your a fan of her books which I am. She's just signed a new 3 book deal with Harper Collins. The new trilogy will be titled The Fame Game and will focus on Maddison Parker, a character from her L.A Candy books as she inches closer to the fame she's always dreamed of. I have yet to read the 3rd book in the original series, but I highly recommend them for anyone! Very enjoyable. Go L.C! Can't wait to read them! 

All Harry Potter Film Get 3D Release

After the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in July, Warner Bros. will release all 8 films in 3-D for a limited time only. 


Part 2 of the Deathly Hallows is the only Harry Potter film to be released in 3-D currently. All other films in the series were released in 2-D so seeing all 8 films in 3-D will be a great experience for movie goers and fans of the franchise. 


Personally, I don't see the point in 3-D. Yes, sometimes (being the key word here) it can look great and stuff, but it doesn't add to the film and it's more expensive. I refuse to go see the next HP in 3-D. And I doubt I shall be venturing to see all 8 in 3-D, that's if they do this in the UK.


Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 is currently sitting at the top of the UK Box Office, after breaking multiple records including the biggest release since Quantum of Solace. 


What do you think about this? The franchise is over, so is this one last mad-dash for money? Or do they actually want fans to get the best experience from our beloved wizard and crew? 

HP7 will NOT be released in 3D.

Warner Bros confirmed today that Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1 will not be released in 3D as originally planned. 

Film makers were unable to convert the entire film into the 3D format, and instead of pushing back the film, they decided to scrap the whole 3D and IMAX versions. The long awaited finale to the Harry Potter films is released global on 19th November which was 5 weeks yesterday. I'm personally not bothered by this. I'm not keen on 3D in the first place, because most of the time it is pointless and the glasses hurt my ears. However, I could not be more excited to see this film. I need to tickets to the midnight showing like right now before I explode. 

Part 1 of the finale will be released 19th November 2010. Part 2 which will still be released in 3D and IMAX is released 15th July 2011.
