brought to the big screen.
Joining WALL•E on his fantastic journey across a universe of
never-before-imagined visions of the future, is a hilarious cast of

misfit robots.

Award®-winner Ben Burtt ("Star Wars," "Indiana Jones," "E.T. the

Plot Summary: Based upon Mark
Millar's explosive graphic novel series and helmed by the stunning visualist
director Timur Bekmambetov--creator of the most successful Russian film
franchise in history, the "Night Watch" series--"Wanted" tells the story of
one invisible drone's transformation into a dark avenger. In 2008, the world
will be introduced to a superhero for a new millennium: Wesley Gibson.
25-year-old account manager Wes (James McAvoy) was the most pathetic,
cube-dwelling hypochondriac the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him
out hourly, his girlfriend cheated on him daily and his life plodded on
interminably. Everyone was certain this weakling would never amount to
anything. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die
a slow, clock-punching death.
Until he became Wanted.
After the murder of a father he never knew, Wes discovers powers beyond his
dreams. He becomes the latest recruit in the Fraternity--a secret society of
assassins--and develops lightning-quick reflexes with superhuman agility.
Wes soon learns his league of henchmen has but one mission: carry out the
death orders of the mythological Fates, weavers of every man's lifeline.
With wickedly brilliant tutors, he morphs into a killing machine and starts
erasing one bad guy after another. But as Wes grows into the mantle passed
down by his father...he discovers his clan members are not exactly the
enforcers of justice they claim to be. Just as he gets everything he ever
Wanted, Wesley Gibson will learn that with the ability to deliver death
comes an even more difficult power...controlling your own life.

finally had enough – as grateful as they are to have their local hero, the
good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to deserve
this guy. Hancock isn't the kind of man who cares what other people think –
until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey (Jason

vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock's greatest challenge
yet – and a task that may prove impossible as Ray's wife, Mary (Charlize

the next chapter in the adventure series, "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon
Emperor." Brendan Fraser returns as explorer Rick O'Connell to combat the
resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of
ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. Rick is joined in this all-new
adventure by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and
her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O'Connells must stop
a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens to plunge the world
into his merciless, unending service.
Doomed by a double-crossing sorceress (Michelle Yeoh) to spend eternity in
suspended animation, China's ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors
have laid forgotten for eons, entombed in clay as a vast, silent terra cotta
army. But when dashing adventurer Alex O'Connell is tricked into awakening
the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless young archaeologist must seek
the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the
undead: his parents.
As the monarch roars back to life, our heroes find his quest for world
domination has only intensified over the millennia. Striding the Far East
with unimaginable supernatural powers, the Emperor Mummy will rouse his
legion as an unstoppable, otherworldly force...unless the O'Connells can
stop him first. Now, in "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor," the
trademark thrills and visually spectacular action of the "Mummy" series will
be redefined for a new generation.

("The Fast and the Furious," "xXx") and written by Alfred Gough & Miles
Millar ("Spider-Man 2," television's "Smallville"). Reprising their roles as

Plot Summary: Next summer, the guys
who brought you Superbad reunite for the action-comedy "Pineapple Express."
Lazy stoner Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) has only one reason to visit his
equally lazy dealer Saul Silver (James Franco): to purchase weed,
specifically, a rare new strain called Pineapple Express. But when Dale
becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop (Rosie Perez) and the
city's most dangerous drug lord (Gary Cole), he panics and dumps his roach
of Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale now has another reason to visit
Saul: to find out if the weed is so rare that it can be traced back to him.
And it is. As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that
they're not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys
really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to
kill them both. All aboard the Pineapple Express.
The film is directed by David Gordon Green ("All the Real Girls"). The
screenplay is by Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg from a story by Judd Apatow and

American princess has finally met her match: a school of British girls who
won't tolerate her spoiled ways.
Under the watchful eye of the school's headmistress (Natasha Richardson) and
surrounded by a new circle of friends, Poppy begrudgingly realizes her
bad-girl behavior will only get her so far. But just because she must grow

expert with a hit radio show and an upcoming book. She is serious and
sensible about the issue of love and gives frank, 'on the nose' advice to
women on how to find the right man without wasting time on the wrong ones in
between. Emma believes she has met her own perfect match in Richard (Colin
Firth) a successful and conservative publishing executive.
Of course matters of the heart are never as clean cut as Emma believes them
to be! Just weeks before her wedding Emma discovers she is somehow already
married to Patrick (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) an irresponsible but charming
neighborhood fireman with a big secret …the marriage is no accident.
It turns out Patrick is harboring a grudge -- his fiancée broke up with him
after receiving relationship advice from Emma on her show. The "accidental"
marriage is a prank Patrick pulled to cause chaos in Emma's apparently
perfect love life and show her what it feels like to have a complete
stranger meddle with your life.
Unable to come clean, Patrick goes along with the ruse pretending to be just
as baffled as Emma. Whilst trying to figure out how to end the marriage
their opposite approaches to life create much tension and chaos. But as they
spend more time together, Patrick starts to fall in love with the woman he
thinks ruined his future marriage and Emma starts to admire his carefree,
reckless passion for life and doubt her own conservative, button-down views
on life and love.

Plot Summary: Based on the incredible
true story, The Express follows the inspirational life of college football
hero Ernie Davis (Rob Brown), the first African-American to win the Heisman
Trophy. Following his draft by the NFL, tragedy struck the star athlete and
he was never able to take the professional field. But his tale would forever
change the face of professional sports.
Raised in poverty in Pennsylvania coal-mining country, Davis overcame
seemingly insurmountable obstacles to become an unstoppable running back for
the Syracuse Orangemen. Under the guidance of coach Ben Schwartzwalder
(Dennis Quaid) -- a hard-nosed surrogate father with an obsession for
winning a national championship -- Davis would develop from an impressive
high-school athlete into a legend.
While everyone agreed Ernie Davis was a miracle player, few thought this
quiet young man would become an icon for the burgeoning civil rights
movement dividing America in the early 1960s. Refusing to play by the
unspoken racist rules of the day, Davis broke through one barrier after
another to alter the way fans looked at men of his color.
Though struck a terrible blow in the prime of his life, his spirit soared
when most would crumble. Forcing his bull-headed coach to re-examine a life
lived in color-based privilege, Davis would join the ranks of black pioneers
who inspired a movement that smashed barriers on and off the playing field.
