Alan Rickman Shares the Spotlight with California Wines in Bottle Shock

Friday August 8, 2008
Alan Rickman stars as Steven Spurrier, a snobby British wine connoisseur whose decision to sponsor a competition pitting the best wines of California against France's wines turned the tide for California's vintners, in the deliciously funny film Bottle Shock. Mostly based on a true story that took place in 1976, Bottle Shock follows Spurrier as he travels from Paris to Napa Valley to try and find wines deserving of a chance to take on France's best in a blind taste test.

  • McG Talks Terminator Salvation
    The buzz recently has centered around California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's opinion of the Terminator Salvation footage the producers offered up for his inspection. Speaking to the LA Times, Schwarzenegger indicated he's not quite sure what to make of this fourth film of the franchise - the first film of the bunch not to include him as the Terminator. The Governator told the paper he's unsure of how the film will play out. "They showed me some footage, but I don't have a feel for the movie. I didn't see enough. I wasn't sure who the Terminator was. I don't know if there is one or if he's the star or the hero. These are the things that determine the success and how the strong the movie will be," offered Schwarzenegger.

    Meanwhile at the San Diego Comic Con, Terminator Salvation director McG assured the fans he's commited to making sure this fourth Terminator movie will honor the previous films. Filming has reached the halfway mark on the gritty drama which stars Christian Bale (The Dark Knight) as an adult John Connor. Read On...

    Pineapple Express Cast Interviews

    Thursday August 7, 2008
    Comic Con didn't used to be the place to debut a comedy movie, but the times have changed and now comedies, documentaries, and dramas are made to feel right at home at the comic book and movie lovers paradise. Often referred to as the land of geeks and nerds, Comic Con has become the place for Hollywood to show off its wares, even when they're in no way related to comics.

    The cast of Pineapple Express, Columbia Pictures' pot-smoking action comedy, brought their pic to the Con, screening it for fans lucky enough - and patient enough - to land a seat in the theater. The Pineapple Express cast, including the super-popular Seth Rogen (he actually has a comic book project lined up), also showed up for a Q&A session with 6,000+ fans and even walked the mini red carpet set up just for the press. Check out what they had to say in these exclusive interviews from the 2008 Comic Con:

  • One on One with Terminator Salvation Star Sam Worthington
    Sam Worthington's not exactly a household name now, but with a lead role in Warner Bros Pictures' Terminator Salvation and one in James Cameron's Avatar, that will soon change. Worthington goes toe to toe with Christian Bale in Terminator Salvation, but in real life he had nothing but compliments for his onscreen adversary. "Christian's the most dedicated, passionate and intelligent actor that I've ever worked with, and he only makes you better," said Worthington. Read On...
