Journey 2: The Mysterious Island Australian Tour; Sydney Red Carpet Premiere

 

Vanessa Hudgens (Suckerpunch and High School Musical) and Josh Hutcherson (Journey to the Centre of the Earth and The Hunger Games) are in Sydney, Australia, where earlier tonight they did the Australian movie premiere for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island at Event Cinemas, George Street.

 

Hudgens had flew in to Sydney, up from Melbourne, at 1pm, and was flanked by publicity officials at Sydney Airport.

 

Australia has really grown on Hudgens over the past few years...

 

"I love Australia so much," she said.

 

"My best friend is actually from here, and I really love the place."

 

The 23 year old said the chance to work opposite dual Academy Award winner Sir Michael Caine, 78, was too good to pass up.

 

"It was a great cast, and we had so much fun," Hudgens said. "We filmed in Hawaii, which was paradise, and made something that's fun and light-hearted for the whole family."

 

Hudgens' Australian connections were enhanced last year when she starred in Sucker Punch, a fantasy thriller also featuring Aussie star Abbie Cornish.

 

"Abbie is one of the most incredible women I know," Hudgens said.

 

"She's so strong-willed, very interesting and extremely creative - a beautiful soul."

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island begins when young Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson, reprising his role from the first film) receives a coded distress signal from a mysterious island where no island should exist. It’s a place of strange life forms, mountains of gold, deadly volcanoes, and more than one astonishing secret.

 

Unable to stop him from going, Sean’s new stepfather, Hank (Dwayne Johnson), joins the quest.

 

Together with a helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his beautiful, strong-willed daughter (Vanessa Hudgens), they set out to find the island, rescue its lone inhabitant and escape before seismic shockwaves force the island under the sea and bury its treasures forever.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is directed by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). It also stars Michael Caine as Sean’s grandfather, Alexander Anderson, and Kristin Davis as Sean’s mum, Liz Anderson.

 

JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND 3D releases in cinemas nationally on January 19th.

 

The Sydney premiere was a "don't miss" attraction from both a news media and fan perspective.

 

The movie tagline is 'Believe the impossible. Discover the incredible.' We suggest you do the same and get yourself to the premiere and the cinema for a journey you won't soon forget.

 

Director: Brad Peyton

Writers: Brian Gunn (screenplay), Mark Gunn (screenplay)

Stars: Josh Hutcherson, Dwayne Johnson and Michael Caine

An ex-Marine haunted by a tragic past, Tommy Riordan, returns to his hometown of Pittsburgh and gets his dads, a recovered alcoholic and his former coach, to train him for an MMA tournament awarding the biggest purse in the history of the brutal sport. As Tommy progresses towards the title prize, his brother, Brendan, a former MMA fighter unable to make ends meet as a public school teacher, returns to the amateur ring to provide for his family. Medical attention, threats and violence are all par for the course, as one might expect in this brutal version of the fighting world. Even though years have passed, past betrayals and many bad deeds keep Brendan bitterly estranged from both Tommy and his father. But when Brendan's unlikely rise as an underdog sets him on a deadly course with Tommy, the two brothers must finally confront the situation that tore them apart, all the while fighting the most intense, winner-takes-all battle of their lives.

 

In the US Warrior was released via Lions Gate Entertainment.

 

If you like a bit of biffo, as most Australian audiences do, this is for you. Fans of MMA, wrestling, boxing, and the action genre in general, will all go home happy having seen this flick.

 

News Update...

 

Edgerton has been cast as Tom Buchanan in Baz Luhrmann's 2012 remake of The Great Gatsby. Edgerton enjoys quite a bit of face time with Leonardo DiCaprio, both on and off set. The Great Gatsby is being filmed at Fox Studios, Moore Park, in Sydney.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island Australian Tour; Sydney Red Carpet Premiere

 

Vanessa Hudgens (Suckerpunch and High School Musical) and Josh Hutcherson (Journey to the Centre of the Earth and The Hunger Games) are in Sydney, Australia, where earlier tonight they did the Australian movie premiere for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island at Event Cinemas, George Street.

 

Hudgens had flew in to Sydney, up from Melbourne, at 1pm, and was flanked by publicity officials at Sydney Airport.

 

Australia has really grown on Hudgens over the past few years...

 

"I love Australia so much," she said.

 

"My best friend is actually from here, and I really love the place."

 

The 23 year old said the chance to work opposite dual Academy Award winner Sir Michael Caine, 78, was too good to pass up.

 

"It was a great cast, and we had so much fun," Hudgens said. "We filmed in Hawaii, which was paradise, and made something that's fun and light-hearted for the whole family."

 

Hudgens' Australian connections were enhanced last year when she starred in Sucker Punch, a fantasy thriller also featuring Aussie star Abbie Cornish.

 

"Abbie is one of the most incredible women I know," Hudgens said.

 

"She's so strong-willed, very interesting and extremely creative - a beautiful soul."

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island begins when young Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson, reprising his role from the first film) receives a coded distress signal from a mysterious island where no island should exist. It’s a place of strange life forms, mountains of gold, deadly volcanoes, and more than one astonishing secret.

 

Unable to stop him from going, Sean’s new stepfather, Hank (Dwayne Johnson), joins the quest.

 

Together with a helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his beautiful, strong-willed daughter (Vanessa Hudgens), they set out to find the island, rescue its lone inhabitant and escape before seismic shockwaves force the island under the sea and bury its treasures forever.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is directed by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). It also stars Michael Caine as Sean’s grandfather, Alexander Anderson, and Kristin Davis as Sean’s mum, Liz Anderson.

 

JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND 3D releases in cinemas nationally on January 19th.

 

The Sydney premiere was a "don't miss" attraction from both a news media and fan perspective.

 

The movie tagline is 'Believe the impossible. Discover the incredible.' We suggest you do the same and get yourself to the premiere and the cinema for a journey you won't soon forget.

 

Director: Brad Peyton

Writers: Brian Gunn (screenplay), Mark Gunn (screenplay)

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey movie premiere: Sydney, Australia...

 

'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' enjoyed its Sydney, Australia red carpet movie premiere at George Street Event Cinemas tonight.

 

A crowd of hundreds of general public and dozens of media welcomed in the popular film franchise.

 

Promo:

 

Set in Middle-earth 60 years before The Lord of the Rings, the adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

 

Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of 13 dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Sorcerers.

 

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

 

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of ingenuity and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s “precious” ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities… A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

 

Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf the Grey, the character he played in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, with Martin Freeman in the central role of Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.

 

Also reprising their roles from The Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit trilogy are: Cate Blanchett as Galadriel; Ian Holm as the elder Bilbo; Christopher Lee as Saruman; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; Elijah Wood as Frodo; and Andy Serkis as Gollum.

 

The international ensemble cast of the trilogy also includes Manu Bennett, Jed Brophy, Adam Brown, John Callen, Mark Hadlow, Peter Hambleton, Barry Humphries, Stephen Hunter, William Kircher, Sylvester McCoy, Bret McKenzie, Graham McTavish, James Nesbitt, Dean O’Gorman, Conan Stevens, Ken Stott and Aidan Turner.

 

The screenplay for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” is by Fran Walsh & Philippa Boyens & Peter Jackson & Guillermo del Toro. Jackson is also producing the film, together with Carolynne Cunningham, Zane Weiner and Fran Walsh. The executive producers are Alan Horn, Toby Emmerich, Ken Kamins and Carolyn Blackwood, with Boyens and Eileen Moran serving as co-producers.

 

Storyline:

 

Bilbo Baggins is swept into a quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever ... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities

 

A younger and more reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out on a "unexpected journey" to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of Dwarves to reclaim a their stolen mountain home from a dragon named Smaug.

 

Summary: Many entertainment commentators including the Media Man agency think that 'The Hobbit' may be one of the best and most popular movies in Australia for 2012, despite the late release in the year. One for the whole family, and both casual and die hard fans should love it.

 

Special thanks to everyone who helped make tonight such a big success. See you at the movies again soon.

 

Director: Peter Jackson

Writers: Fran Walsh (screenplay), Philippa Boyens (screenplay), Guillermo del Toro, Peter Jackson

Actors: Martin Freeman, Ian McKellen, Richard Armitrage, Andy Serkis (Voice), Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving

It’s a place of strange life forms, mountains of gold, deadly volcanoes, and more than one astonishing secret.

 

Unable to stop him from going, Sean’s new stepfather, Hank (Dwayne Johnson), joins the quest.

 

Together with a helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his beautiful, strong-willed daughter (Vanessa Hudgens), they set out to find the island, rescue its lone inhabitant and escape before seismic shockwaves force the island under the sea and bury its treasures forever.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is directed by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). It also stars Michael Caine as Sean’s grandfather, Alexander Anderson, and Kristin Davis as Sean’s mum, Liz Anderson.

 

JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND 3D releases in cinemas nationally on January 19th.

 

The Sydney premiere was a "don't miss" attraction from both a news media and fan perspective.

 

The movie tagline is 'Believe the impossible. Discover the incredible.' We suggest you do the same and get yourself to the premiere and the cinema for a journey you won't soon forget.

 

Director: Brad Peyton

Writers: Brian Gunn (screenplay), Mark Gunn (screenplay)

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island Australian Tour; Sydney Red Carpet Premiere

 

Vanessa Hudgens (Suckerpunch and High School Musical) and Josh Hutcherson (Journey to the Centre of the Earth and The Hunger Games) are in Sydney, Australia, where earlier tonight they did the Australian movie premiere for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island at Event Cinemas, George Street.

 

Hudgens had flew in to Sydney, up from Melbourne, at 1pm, and was flanked by publicity officials at Sydney Airport.

 

Australia has really grown on Hudgens over the past few years...

 

"I love Australia so much," she said.

 

"My best friend is actually from here, and I really love the place."

 

The 23 year old said the chance to work opposite dual Academy Award winner Sir Michael Caine, 78, was too good to pass up.

 

"It was a great cast, and we had so much fun," Hudgens said. "We filmed in Hawaii, which was paradise, and made something that's fun and light-hearted for the whole family."

 

Hudgens' Australian connections were enhanced last year when she starred in Sucker Punch, a fantasy thriller also featuring Aussie star Abbie Cornish.

 

"Abbie is one of the most incredible women I know," Hudgens said.

 

"She's so strong-willed, very interesting and extremely creative - a beautiful soul."

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey movie premiere: Sydney, Australia...

 

'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' enjoyed its Sydney, Australia red carpet movie premiere at George Street Event Cinemas tonight.

 

A crowd of hundreds of general public and dozens of media welcomed in the popular film franchise.

 

The celebrity list was large and included: Paula Arundell, Zoe Balbi, Emily Barclay, Matt Boesenberg, Scott Cam, Salvatore Coco, Harry Cook, Zoe Crammond, Matt Day, Matt Doran, Issy Durant, Bella Ferraro, Rhiannon Fish, Fourtunate, Maude Garrett, Lisa Gormley, Daniel Henshall, Les Hill, George Houvardes, John Jarratt, Hugo Johnstone-Burt, Kerri-Anne Kennerley, Jay Lag’aia, Todd Lasance, Sophie Lowe, Sophie Luck, Emma Lung, Andrew Maciver, Reece Mastin, Jessica McNamee, Sam Moran, Matt Nable, Indira Naidoo, Valentina Novakovic, Alice Parkinson, Peter Phelps, Rupert Reid, Stephanie Rice, Kat Risteska, Jordan Rodrigues, Zac Russell (The Collective), Guy Sebastian, Jeremy Sims, Barry Southgate, Marco Storm, Miranda Tapsell, Erik Thomsen, Maria Venuti, David Whitehill, Felix Williamson, Dan Wyllie and Lincoln Younes.

 

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is a 2012 fantasy film directed by Peter Jackson. It is the first of a three-part film adaptation of the 1937 novel The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien, to be followed by The Desolation of Smaug and There and Back Again, due for theatrical release in 2013 and 2014, respectively.

 

Promo:

 

Set in Middle-earth 60 years before The Lord of the Rings, the adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

 

Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of 13 dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Sorcerers.

 

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

 

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of ingenuity and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s “precious” ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities… A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

 

Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf the Grey, the character he played in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, with Martin Freeman in the central role of Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.

 

Also reprising their roles from The Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit trilogy are: Cate Blanchett as Galadriel; Ian Holm as the elder Bilbo; Christopher Lee as Saruman; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; Elijah Wood as Frodo; and Andy Serkis as Gollum.

 

The international ensemble cast of the trilogy also includes Manu Bennett, Jed Brophy, Adam Brown, John Callen, Mark Hadlow, Peter Hambleton, Barry Humphries, Stephen Hunter, William Kircher, Sylvester McCoy, Bret McKenzie, Graham McTavish, James Nesbitt, Dean O’Gorman, Conan Stevens, Ken Stott and Aidan Turner.

 

The screenplay for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” is by Fran Walsh & Philippa Boyens & Peter Jackson & Guillermo del Toro. Jackson is also producing the film, together with Carolynne Cunningham, Zane Weiner and Fran Walsh. The executive producers are Alan Horn, Toby Emmerich, Ken Kamins and Carolyn Blackwood, with Boyens and Eileen Moran serving as co-producers.

 

Storyline:

 

Bilbo Baggins is swept into a quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever ... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities

 

A younger and more reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out on a "unexpected journey" to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of Dwarves to reclaim a their stolen mountain home from a dragon named Smaug.

 

Summary: Many entertainment commentators including the Media Man agency think that 'The Hobbit' may be one of the best and most popular movies in Australia for 2012, despite the late release in the year. One for the whole family, and both casual and die hard fans should love it.

 

Special thanks to everyone who helped make tonight such a big success. See you at the movies again soon.

 

Director: Peter Jackson

Writers: Fran Walsh (screenplay), Philippa Boyens (screenplay), Guillermo del Toro, Peter Jackson

Actors: Martin Freeman, Ian McKellen, Richard Armitrage, Andy Serkis (Voice), Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving

Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever ... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities

 

A younger and more reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out on a "unexpected journey" to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of Dwarves to reclaim a their stolen mountain home from a dragon named Smaug.

 

Summary: Many entertainment commentators including the Media Man agency think that 'The Hobbit' may be one of the best and most popular movies in Australia for 2012, despite the late release in the year. One for the whole family, and both casual and die hard fans should love it.

 

Special thanks to everyone who helped make tonight such a big success. See you at the movies again soon.

Promo:

 

Set in Middle-earth 60 years before The Lord of the Rings, the adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

 

Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of 13 dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Sorcerers.

 

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

 

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of ingenuity and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s “precious” ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities… A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

 

Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf the Grey, the character he played in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, with Martin Freeman in the central role of Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.

 

Also reprising their roles from The Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit trilogy are: Cate Blanchett as Galadriel; Ian Holm as the elder Bilbo; Christopher Lee as Saruman; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; Elijah Wood as Frodo; and Andy Serkis as Gollum.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island Australian Tour; Sydney Red Carpet Premiere

 

Vanessa Hudgens (Suckerpunch and High School Musical) and Josh Hutcherson (Journey to the Centre of the Earth and The Hunger Games) are in Sydney, Australia, where earlier tonight they did the Australian movie premiere for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island at Event Cinemas, George Street.

 

Hudgens had flew in to Sydney, up from Melbourne, at 1pm, and was flanked by publicity officials at Sydney Airport.

 

Australia has really grown on Hudgens over the past few years...

 

"I love Australia so much," she said.

 

"My best friend is actually from here, and I really love the place."

 

The 23 year old said the chance to work opposite dual Academy Award winner Sir Michael Caine, 78, was too good to pass up.

 

"It was a great cast, and we had so much fun," Hudgens said. "We filmed in Hawaii, which was paradise, and made something that's fun and light-hearted for the whole family."

 

Hudgens' Australian connections were enhanced last year when she starred in Sucker Punch, a fantasy thriller also featuring Aussie star Abbie Cornish.

 

"Abbie is one of the most incredible women I know," Hudgens said.

 

"She's so strong-willed, very interesting and extremely creative - a beautiful soul."

 

More...

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island begins when young Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson, reprising his role from the first film) receives a coded distress signal from a mysterious island where no island should exist. It’s a place of strange life forms, mountains of gold, deadly volcanoes, and more than one astonishing secret.

 

Unable to stop him from going, Sean’s new stepfather, Hank (Dwayne Johnson), joins the quest.

 

Together with a helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his beautiful, strong-willed daughter (Vanessa Hudgens), they set out to find the island, rescue its lone inhabitant and escape before seismic shockwaves force the island under the sea and bury its treasures forever.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is directed by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). It also stars Michael Caine as Sean’s grandfather, Alexander Anderson, and Kristin Davis as Sean’s mum, Liz Anderson.

 

JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND 3D releases in cinemas nationally on January 19th.

 

The Sydney premiere was a "don't miss" attraction from both a news media and fan perspective.

 

The movie tagline is 'Believe the impossible. Discover the incredible.' We suggest you do the same and get yourself to the premiere and the cinema for a journey you won't soon forget.

 

Director: Brad Peyton

Writers: Brian Gunn (screenplay), Mark Gunn (screenplay)

Stars: Josh Hutcherson, Dwayne Johnson and Michael Caine

Happy Feet Two Australian Premiere With Robin Williams And George Miller At Entertainment Quarter In Sydney

 

The Happy Feet Two Australian premiere took place at Moore Park, Fox Studios this afternoon, and it was happy feet galore as celebs did the white carpet, with snowflakes flying around all of us.

 

Sydney has gone head over heels for Mumbles, Erik and Lovelace, and they would just love to see you and your family see their film when it opens in Australia on 15th December.

 

Even the Sydney weather got in the mood for the movie with a bit of an Arctic chill in the air.

 

The sequel to the animated smash-hit Happy Feet reunites the Academy Award winners to the magnificent and super cool landscape of Antarctica, this time in 3D.

 

Mumble’s tiny son Erik is choreo-phobic. Reluctant to dance, Erik and his friends run away where they soon meet The Mighty Sven – a penguin who can fly! Mumble has no hope of competing with this charismatic new role model but things are about to get worse when the world is shaken by powerful forces. Erik soon learns of his father’s guts and grit as Mumble brings together the penguin nations and all manner of fabulous creatures – from tiny Krill to giant Elephant Seals – to put things right.

 

Mumble's son, Erik, is battling to realize his talents in the Emperor Penguin world. Meanwhile, Mumble and his family and friends discover a new threat their home - one that will take everyone working together to save them.

 

Other than Robin Williams the film also features the voices of Elijah Wood, Hank Azaria, Alecia Moore (P!nk), Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Sofia Vergara, Common, Hugo Weaving, Richard Carter, Magda Szubanski, Anthony LaPaglia and Benjamin “Lil P-Nut” Flores Jr. We think Williams genius saves this film from being pretty average - keeping in mind we know how awesome Williams and Miller can be when they are at their best.

 

Robin Williams told Music News Australia on the difference between voice acting and traditional acting: "It feels free". On feelings about media and the style of movie "Well, it's very different from One Hour Photo", which got a great reaction from the press pack - especially the snappers.

 

Australian producer, director and writer George Miller said of the film when asked about creative and financial success: "It was so rewarding. The film should do really well and its in 3D this time also". When complimented on his one of one interviews with today's press and asked about if he would even be open to a Foxtel - StudioTV 'Dinner With Five' concept where producers, directors and actors all sit down for dinner and discuss the business, taped for television he said "I haven't actually seen that but it sounds interesting". Further quizzed Miller said: "I guess I would be open to that".

 

Miller said getting so many big names on board was "a great privilege and very humbling".

 

The Mad Max director said he already had the story for Happy Feet Two in his mind before they had finished the first one and it was an easy decision to jump straight into the sequel.

 

"When you work on a film like Happy Feet, the characters become part of you, they're like imaginary friends in your head, they're like family," he said.

 

"And it's such a rich world to work in, it was very,very easy to get into it."

 

The buzz and excitement for Williams was so much today that almost a dozen TV media asked Williams for autographs, and he happily obliged, so we joined in the fun two. Yes, media are also fans (not just critics).

 

Some of the best reviews like the one done by Richard Corliss reads"....Miller is not content to duplicate the pleasures of his first penguin film; he dares to go bigger, deeper, higher — happier."

 

Don't forget it's 3D, so if you have a foot fetish or whatever, you're in for a wonderful treat. Love the close ups of beaks too.

 

Round up the kids of all ages and step on down to Happy Feet Two. 4.5 out of of 5 paws (because we're huge Robin Williams and George Miller fans). Well organised from our friends at Village Roadshow too.

 

Director: George Miller

Writers: George Miller, Gary Eck,

Stars: Elijah Wood, Robin Williams and Pink

 

Release dates November 18, 2011 (United States)

December 15, 2011 (Australia)

Warrior Sydney Premiere Rough And Ready, by Eva Rinaldi

 

Warrior enjoyed it's Sydney, Australia premiere tonight in what was a rough and ready affair at Sydney's Event Cinemas, George Street.

 

The movie plot goes like this... The youngest son (Tom Hardy) of an alcoholic former boxer (Nick Nolte) returns home, where he's trained up by his old man for competition in a MMA tourney...a journey that puts the fighter on a collision with his older brother (Joel Edgerton). It's the fight of a lifetime for the two brothers, and as try to overcome the fallout from their broken family. An ex-Marine haunted by a tragic past, Tommy Riordan, returns to his hometown of Pittsburgh and gets his dads, a recovered alcoholic and his former coach, to train him for an MMA tournament awarding the biggest purse in the history of the brutal sport. As Tommy progresses towards the title prize, his brother, Brendan, a former MMA fighter unable to make ends meet as a public school teacher, returns to the amateur ring to provide for his family. Medical attention, threats and violence are all par for the course, as one might expect in this brutal version of the fighting world. Even though years have passed, past betrayals and many bad deeds keep Brendan bitterly estranged from both Tommy and his father. But when Brendan's unlikely rise as an underdog sets him on a deadly course with Tommy, the two brothers must finally confront the situation that tore them apart, all the while fighting the most intense, winner-takes-all battle of their lives.

 

In the US Warrior was released via Lions Gate Entertainment.

 

If you like a bit of biffo, as most Australian audiences do, this is for you. Fans of MMA, wrestling, boxing, and the action genre in general, will all go home happy having seen this flick.

 

News Update...

 

Edgerton has been cast as Tom Buchanan in Baz Luhrmann's 2012 remake of The Great Gatsby. Edgerton enjoys quite a bit of face time with Leonardo DiCaprio, both on and off set. The Great Gatsby is being filmed at Fox Studios, Moore Park, in Sydney.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island begins when young Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson, reprising his role from the first film) receives a coded distress signal from a mysterious island where no island should exist. It’s a place of strange life forms, mountains of gold, deadly volcanoes, and more than one astonishing secret.

 

Unable to stop him from going, Sean’s new stepfather, Hank (Dwayne Johnson), joins the quest.

 

Together with a helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his beautiful, strong-willed daughter (Vanessa Hudgens), they set out to find the island, rescue its lone inhabitant and escape before seismic shockwaves force the island under the sea and bury its treasures forever.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is directed by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). It also stars Michael Caine as Sean’s grandfather, Alexander Anderson, and Kristin Davis as Sean’s mum, Liz Anderson.

 

JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND 3D releases in cinemas nationally on January 19th.

 

The Sydney premiere was a "don't miss" attraction from both a news media and fan perspective.

 

The movie tagline is 'Believe the impossible. Discover the incredible.' We suggest you do the same and get yourself to the premiere and the cinema for a journey you won't soon forget.

 

Director: Brad Peyton

Writers: Brian Gunn (screenplay), Mark Gunn (screenplay)

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey movie premiere: Sydney, Australia...

 

'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' enjoyed its Sydney, Australia red carpet movie premiere at George Street Event Cinemas tonight.

 

A crowd of hundreds of general public and dozens of media welcomed in the popular film franchise.

 

Promo:

 

Set in Middle-earth 60 years before The Lord of the Rings, the adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

 

Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of 13 dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Sorcerers.

 

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

 

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of ingenuity and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s “precious” ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities… A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

 

Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf the Grey, the character he played in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, with Martin Freeman in the central role of Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.

 

Also reprising their roles from The Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit trilogy are: Cate Blanchett as Galadriel; Ian Holm as the elder Bilbo; Christopher Lee as Saruman; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; Elijah Wood as Frodo; and Andy Serkis as Gollum.

 

The international ensemble cast of the trilogy also includes Manu Bennett, Jed Brophy, Adam Brown, John Callen, Mark Hadlow, Peter Hambleton, Barry Humphries, Stephen Hunter, William Kircher, Sylvester McCoy, Bret McKenzie, Graham McTavish, James Nesbitt, Dean O’Gorman, Conan Stevens, Ken Stott and Aidan Turner.

 

The screenplay for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” is by Fran Walsh & Philippa Boyens & Peter Jackson & Guillermo del Toro. Jackson is also producing the film, together with Carolynne Cunningham, Zane Weiner and Fran Walsh. The executive producers are Alan Horn, Toby Emmerich, Ken Kamins and Carolyn Blackwood, with Boyens and Eileen Moran serving as co-producers.

 

Storyline:

 

Bilbo Baggins is swept into a quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever ... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities

 

A younger and more reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out on a "unexpected journey" to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of Dwarves to reclaim a their stolen mountain home from a dragon named Smaug.

 

Summary: Many entertainment commentators including the Media Man agency think that 'The Hobbit' may be one of the best and most popular movies in Australia for 2012, despite the late release in the year. One for the whole family, and both casual and die hard fans should love it.

 

Special thanks to everyone who helped make tonight such a big success. See you at the movies again soon.

Happy Feet Two Australian Premiere With Robin Williams And George Miller At Entertainment Quarter In Sydney

 

The Happy Feet Two Australian premiere took place at Moore Park, Fox Studios this afternoon, and it was happy feet galore as celebs did the white carpet, with snowflakes flying around all of us.

 

Sydney has gone head over heels for Mumbles, Erik and Lovelace, and they would just love to see you and your family see their film when it opens in Australia on 15th December.

 

Even the Sydney weather got in the mood for the movie with a bit of an Arctic chill in the air.

 

The sequel to the animated smash-hit Happy Feet reunites the Academy Award winners to the magnificent and super cool landscape of Antarctica, this time in 3D.

 

Mumble’s tiny son Erik is choreo-phobic. Reluctant to dance, Erik and his friends run away where they soon meet The Mighty Sven – a penguin who can fly! Mumble has no hope of competing with this charismatic new role model but things are about to get worse when the world is shaken by powerful forces. Erik soon learns of his father’s guts and grit as Mumble brings together the penguin nations and all manner of fabulous creatures – from tiny Krill to giant Elephant Seals – to put things right.

 

Mumble's son, Erik, is battling to realize his talents in the Emperor Penguin world. Meanwhile, Mumble and his family and friends discover a new threat their home - one that will take everyone working together to save them.

 

Other than Robin Williams the film also features the voices of Elijah Wood, Hank Azaria, Alecia Moore (P!nk), Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Sofia Vergara, Common, Hugo Weaving, Richard Carter, Magda Szubanski, Anthony LaPaglia and Benjamin “Lil P-Nut” Flores Jr. We think Williams genius saves this film from being pretty average - keeping in mind we know how awesome Williams and Miller can be when they are at their best.

 

Robin Williams told Music News Australia on the difference between voice acting and traditional acting: "It feels free". On feelings about media and the style of movie "Well, it's very different from One Hour Photo", which got a great reaction from the press pack - especially the snappers.

 

Australian producer, director and writer George Miller said of the film when asked about creative and financial success: "It was so rewarding. The film should do really well and its in 3D this time also". When complimented on his one of one interviews with today's press and asked about if he would even be open to a Foxtel - StudioTV 'Dinner With Five' concept where producers, directors and actors all sit down for dinner and discuss the business, taped for television he said "I haven't actually seen that but it sounds interesting". Further quizzed Miller said: "I guess I would be open to that".

 

Miller said getting so many big names on board was "a great privilege and very humbling".

 

The Mad Max director said he already had the story for Happy Feet Two in his mind before they had finished the first one and it was an easy decision to jump straight into the sequel.

 

"When you work on a film like Happy Feet, the characters become part of you, they're like imaginary friends in your head, they're like family," he said.

 

"And it's such a rich world to work in, it was very,very easy to get into it."

 

The buzz and excitement for Williams was so much today that almost a dozen TV media asked Williams for autographs, and he happily obliged, so we joined in the fun two. Yes, media are also fans (not just critics).

 

Some of the best reviews like the one done by Richard Corliss reads"....Miller is not content to duplicate the pleasures of his first penguin film; he dares to go bigger, deeper, higher — happier."

 

Don't forget it's 3D, so if you have a foot fetish or whatever, you're in for a wonderful treat. Love the close ups of beaks too.

 

Round up the kids of all ages and step on down to Happy Feet Two. 4.5 out of of 5 paws (because we're huge Robin Williams and George Miller fans). Well organised from our friends at Village Roadshow too.

 

Director: George Miller

Writers: George Miller, Gary Eck,

Stars: Elijah Wood, Robin Williams and Pink

 

Release dates November 18, 2011 (United States)

December 15, 2011 (Australia)

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey movie premiere: Sydney, Australia...

 

'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' enjoyed its Sydney, Australia red carpet movie premiere at George Street Event Cinemas tonight.

 

A crowd of hundreds of general public and dozens of media welcomed in the popular film franchise.

 

The celebrity list was large and included: Paula Arundell, Zoe Balbi, Emily Barclay, Matt Boesenberg, Scott Cam, Salvatore Coco, Harry Cook, Zoe Crammond, Matt Day, Matt Doran, Issy Durant, Bella Ferraro, Rhiannon Fish, Fourtunate, Maude Garrett, Lisa Gormley, Daniel Henshall, Les Hill, George Houvardes, John Jarratt, Hugo Johnstone-Burt, Kerri-Anne Kennerley, Jay Lag’aia, Todd Lasance, Sophie Lowe, Sophie Luck, Emma Lung, Andrew Maciver, Reece Mastin, Jessica McNamee, Sam Moran, Matt Nable, Indira Naidoo, Valentina Novakovic, Alice Parkinson, Peter Phelps, Rupert Reid, Stephanie Rice, Kat Risteska, Jordan Rodrigues, Zac Russell (The Collective), Guy Sebastian, Jeremy Sims, Barry Southgate, Marco Storm, Miranda Tapsell, Erik Thomsen, Maria Venuti, David Whitehill, Felix Williamson, Dan Wyllie and Lincoln Younes.

 

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is a 2012 fantasy film directed by Peter Jackson. It is the first of a three-part film adaptation of the 1937 novel The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien, to be followed by The Desolation of Smaug and There and Back Again, due for theatrical release in 2013 and 2014, respectively.

 

Promo:

 

Set in Middle-earth 60 years before The Lord of the Rings, the adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

 

Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of 13 dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Sorcerers.

 

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

 

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of ingenuity and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s “precious” ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities… A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

 

Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf the Grey, the character he played in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, with Martin Freeman in the central role of Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.

 

Also reprising their roles from The Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit trilogy are: Cate Blanchett as Galadriel; Ian Holm as the elder Bilbo; Christopher Lee as Saruman; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; Elijah Wood as Frodo; and Andy Serkis as Gollum.

The executive producers are Alan Horn, Toby Emmerich, Ken Kamins and Carolyn Blackwood, with Boyens and Eileen Moran serving as co-producers.

A younger and more reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out on a "unexpected journey" to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of Dwarves to reclaim a their stolen mountain home from a dragon named Smaug.

 

Summary: Many entertainment commentators including the Media Man agency think that 'The Hobbit' may be one of the best and most popular movies in Australia for 2012, despite the late release in the year. One for the whole family, and both casual and die hard fans should love it.

Vanessa Hudgens and Josh Hutcherson Adventure to Bondi Beach

 

Actor’s Vanessa Hudgens(Suckerpunch and High School Musical) and Josh Hutcherson (Hunger Games and Journey to the Centre of the Earth) were at Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach while touring the harbour city for their latest film JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUSISLAND.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island begins when young Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson, reprising his role from the first film) receives acoded distress signal from a mysterious island where no island should exist.

 

It’s a place of strange life forms, mountains of gold, deadly volcanoes, and more than one astonishing secret.

Unable to stop him from going, Sean’s new stepfather, Hank (Dwayne Johnson), joins the quest. Together with helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his beautiful, strong-willed daughter(Vanessa Hudgens), they set out to find the island, rescue its lone inhabitant and escape before seismic shockwaves force the island under the sea and bury its treasures forever.

 

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is directed by Brad Peyton (Cats Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore). It also stars Michael Caine as Sean’s grandfather, Alexander Anderson, and Kristin Davis as Sean’s mum, Liz Anderson.

JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND releases in cinemas nationally on January 19th

Set in Middle-earth 60 years before The Lord of the Rings, the adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug.

 

Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of 13 dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Sorcerers.

 

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

 

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of ingenuity and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s “precious” ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities… A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

 

Ian McKellen returns as Gandalf the Grey, the character he played in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, with Martin Freeman in the central role of Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.

 

Also reprising their roles from The Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit trilogy are: Cate Blanchett as Galadriel; Ian Holm as the elder Bilbo; Christopher Lee as Saruman; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; Elijah Wood as Frodo; and Andy Serkis as Gollum.

 

The international ensemble cast of the trilogy also includes Manu Bennett, Jed Brophy, Adam Brown, John Callen, Mark Hadlow, Peter Hambleton, Barry Humphries, Stephen Hunter, William Kircher, Sylvester McCoy, Bret McKenzie, Graham McTavish, James Nesbitt, Dean O’Gorman, Conan Stevens, Ken Stott and Aidan Turner.

 

The screenplay for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” is by Fran Walsh & Philippa Boyens & Peter Jackson & Guillermo del Toro. Jackson is also producing the film, together with Carolynne Cunningham, Zane Weiner and Fran Walsh. The executive producers are Alan Horn, Toby Emmerich, Ken Kamins and Carolyn Blackwood, with Boyens and Eileen Moran serving as co-producers.
