When Promotional Artwork Is Better Than a Movie: Justice Edition

Nicolas Cage in a glittery face mask. January Jones inexplicably playing bass guitar. Jones being held hostage at gunpoint. Cage getting handcuffed. Jones and Cage raging at Mardi Gras. Separately, all of these images could be part of an entertaining movie. Unfortunately, when strung together though, they give us the curious marketing for Roger Donaldson’s long-delayed thriller Justice. Formerly titled The Hungry Rabbit Jumps (your guess is as good as mine), the Tobey Maguire-produced picture features Cage as a husband who enlists a vigilante group to help him “settle the score” after his musician wife (Jones) is assaulted. Guy Pearce co-stars as a mysterious stranger who approaches Cage about revenge. As the revenge plan unfolds though, Cage undoubtedly learns that justice (the moral quality and not the most generic movie title ever) comes at a price. First, the lackluster trailer. Now, if you had only seen the following images, you might be interested in seeing what the movie entails, right? Justice will premiere in the UK on Nov. 18 but still has not locked a U.S. distributor or release. [via The Playlist]

Johnny Depp Looks Perfect In 'Dark Shadows' Official Photo

by John Mitchell Have you ever been so relieved that no matter what else is going on in your life, no matter how hectic your day, you pause and breathe and everything is just right? That is how I feel right now. Earlier today, Entertainment Weekly unveiled an official first look at the full cast of Tim Burton's hotly anticipated big screen take on the classic Gothic soap opera "Dark Shadows," and coming just weeks after paparazzi shots of star Johnny Depp looking ghastly and weird in heavy white makeup leaked online and sparked a massive (and generally negative) fan response, the image is a sight for sore eyes. I grew up watching reruns of the late-60s melodrama and have been excited about this film since I first heard it was being made. The dark aesthetic that made many of Burton's best films pop made him seem like a good fit to direct for "Shadows," and the cast, from Depp as vampire Barnabas Collins to Michelle Pfeiffer as family matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard and Jackie Earle Haley as groundskeeper Willie Loomis, was perfection. Then that first photo of Depp leaked and our hopes were dashed. Depp's heavy makeup made it seem like Burton's "Shadows" would have more in common with his vividly colorful takes on "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Alice in Wonderland" than his wonderfully dark "Batman" films and "Sleepy Hollow." And that was just wrong. As it turns out, I was the one who was wrong. I put my disappointment into words, shooting off a missive admonishing Burton for the direction I thought he was taking. Now, as this image clearly shows, Depp's look for the film is pretty much right in line with Jonathan Frid's styling from the original series. The makeup appears to have been overdone to counter the macabre filters Burton is shooting with and everything looks perfect. And when I say perfect, I mean it. Burton even took brunette bombshell Eva Green blonde to play Angelique Bouchard, the witch who turned Barnabas into a vamp. Then there's Pfeiffer's Elizabeth, who I worried, after seeing Depp's styling in the paparazzi photos, Burton would reinvent as some eccentric borderline crone. He didn't, and Pfeiffer looks troubled-but-regal as Elizabeth. Lest you think we are ignoring orange-haired Helena Bonham Carter in our praise of Burton's restraint, fear not because, she's the one who is supposed to be a little on the bizarre side. The character is, after all, a sometimes-out-there psychiatrist who in the series tries to cure Barnabas of his vampirism (and everybody knows that's one disease only a stake through the heart can cure). Even the interior of Collinwood Mansion looks right. It's as imposing, dark and gothic as I remember it being on the series. I am now, once again, so excited for "Dark Shadows" I can barely contain it. Now that I feel safe that Burton is moving in the right direction, with the right style and the right actors, I can go back to counting the days until May 11, 2012. There are 232, by the way. "Dark Shadows" fans, are you relieved by this first official look at the movie? Sound off in the comments section and on Twitter!

Will Martin Scorsese Join The E.G.O.T. Club?

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese picked up his first ever Emmy on Sunday, but dont expect him to join the E.G.O.T. club. No, Ill never get that, he told Access Hollywood backstage on Sunday, referring to the award quartet of an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony (the only one hes missing to complete the set is a Tony). Although hes won a host of accolades over the years, winning Sunday nights Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series award for his work on Boardwalk Empire still managed to move the director. Its really very exciting because its another medium, Martin said, referring to television. But the thing about working with the HBO group, I found that there was a great deal of artistic freedom and it got me to move faster. I havent shot so quickly [in years]. Martin already knows where hell put his latest honor, and expects it to land in one of his daughters movies almost immediately. This goes in my living room, [on] my second floor, he said. My daughter, shes gonna be 12 now, and her and her friends like to make these movies, these little movies, so this will probably be in the background. Speaking of movies, Martins first family film Hugo is on its way this Thanksgiving and hes looking forward to sharing it with audiences. Im supposed to be in the mixing room right now working on this film that is for the entire family, he said. Really, its OK Im not kidding. We show it to kids and they love it.
