The ‘Looper’ Poster has been released!
8th April
Thanks to the awesome movie peeps overs at Anomalous Material, a constant source of movie news and information, (I strongly suggest checking out the site) here is the poster (from /Film) for what is shaping up to be one of my most anticipated films of the year, Looper!
Set in a world where time travel is possible but illegal, the mob choose to send their enemies into the past where a waiting hitman, a looper (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is waiting for them. What happens when one day the looper discovers that the victim waiting to be dispatched, is himself from the future (played by Bruce Willis).
Easily one of the most original stories around and I probably go watch it just for that, however given that the cast consists of Gordon-Levitt, Willis, and one of my favourite actresses Emily Blunt, it … Read More »

New 'Looper' Pics
19th March
Looper is one of my most anticipated movies of the year and so I am very excited to share with you some new images from the film, and the first look of Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The pics, courtesy of Cinema Blend, show JGL looking every bit like the mob hitman he plays in the film.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the film, let me briefly explain why I am so damn excited for it!
Imagine a time in the future where time travel is possible but illegal. Now imagine a criminal element (let’s just say The Mob) has access to said time travel. Now imagine that if the mob needs a person to “be taken care of”, they send them to the past to be dealt with. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays the hitman in the past, known as a Looper.
Pretty sweet, right?

Weekly Slab #7
5th January
Welcome to Sunday, people!
It is Sunday which means that it’s time to kick back, relax, and have a look at some of this week’s news which caught my eye….
First up is something which is less movie related and a little more movie star related, Julianne Moore to be specific.
Julianne Moore as Famous Works of Art
I have always thought the world of Julianne Moore. I think that she is tremendously talented, from her Oscar nominated roles on the big screen to her small screen cameo on 30 Rock, I think she delivers exceptional work in pretty much everything she does. Apparently Moore completed a photo shoot for Harper’s Bazaar awhile back and the photos recently hit Tumblr.
This is just a sample of the photos, pretty cool huh?
I think it’s worth having a look, the photos look great and well…I could look … Read More »
'Looper' – Gordon-Levitt and Willis Team Up
31st July
When you first hear the name Looper it doesn’t exactly grab you.
In fact, if you didn’t know any better you could quite easily tune out and miss the news from what is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing films currently in production.
Looper is directed by Rian Johnson, whose previous films include The Brothers Bloom and Brick, and stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt (the lead in Brick), action man extraordinaire Bruce Willis, and Emily Blunt.
Now here comes the really cool part, the storyline.
In the near future time travel is possible but highly illegal. It’s also a future where trying to dispose of a body is extremely difficult. This is where a team of assassins called Loopers come in. They kidnap their victim, send him back 30 years to a waiting Looper who then kills him…in the past! They will technically … Read More »
