First Look at Jaden Smith in M. Night Shyamalan's "After Earth"



Plot:

In After Earth, one thousand years after cataclysmic events forced humanity’s escape from Earth, Nova Prime has become mankind’s new home. Legendary General Cypher Raige (played by Will Smith) returns from an extended tour of duty to his estranged family, ready to be a father to his 13-year-old son, Kitai (played by Jaden Smith). When an asteroid storm damages Cypher and Kitai’s craft, they crash-land on a now unfamiliar and dangerous Earth. As his father lies dying in the cockpit, Kitai must trek across the hostile terrain to recover their rescue beacon. His whole life, Kitai has wanted nothing more than to be a soldier like his father. Today, he gets his chance.

Official "Winners" of the 31st Annual Razzie Awards


Read the official press release:

Sequels, Remakes, and 3-D Rip-Offs Dominate 2010 RAZZIE® Award “Winners”

Voting members of The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation have sifted through the cinematic rubble of last year’s Berry Worst Achievements in Film, and come up with the “winners” for The 31st Annual RAZZIE® Awards. Results are announced in satirical ceremonies held at Hollywood’s Barnsdall Gallery Theatre at 7:30pm PST on Saturday, February 26, 2011 — the now traditional Night Before the Oscars®.

Not quite sweeping the ceremony, but still handily leading the pack among this year’s RAZZIE choices is RAZZIE Repeat Offender M. Night Shyamalan’s “re-imagining” of the faux-anime’ TV series THE LAST AIRBENDER into a jumbled, jump-cut mess of a movie that fans of the TV show hated even more than critics did (if that’s even possible!). In addition to Worst Director and Worst Picture, AIRBENDER also “won” Worst Screenplay, a brand-new RAZZIE category for 2010, Worst Eye-Gouging Mis-Use of 3-D, and Worst Supporting Actor Jackson Rathbone (who had the misfortune to appear in both AIRBENDER and 2010’s other most-RAZZIE-nominated title, TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE).

The other big “winner” (if that’s the right term when speaking of these awards) was the bling-obsessed superslick chick flick SEX & THE CITY #2, which took gold-spray-painted statuettes for Worst Sequel, Worst Screen Ensemble (for its entire cast) and Worst Actress (presented jointly to the film’s four principles, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristen Davis).

Rounding out the field of this year’s sorriest cinematic losers were King of the Twittering Twits Ashton Kutcher as Worst Actor for both KILLERS and VALENTINE’S DAY, and Jessica Alba, finally “winning” a RAZZIE with her fifth nomination. Alba was named Worst Supporting Actress for her “performances” in four films, THE KILLER INSIDE ME, LITTLE FOCKERS, MACHETE and VALENTINE’S DAY. Links to all of the “winners” are on right side of this page.

The RAZZIES® were created in 1980 as a logical antidote to Tinsel Town’s annual glut of self-congratulatory awards by John Wilson, author of The Official Razzie Movie Guide and Everything I Know I Learned at the Movies. “Winners” were determined by mailing ballots to 637 voters in 46 U.S. states and 17 foreign countries. Electronic voting and certification of this year’s Final RAZZIE® Ballot was handled by Vote-Now.com. Among the sponsors of this year’s awards are Kickbars.com and USObituariesOnline.com. The Barnsdall Gallery Theatre is a facility of the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.

Super Hadouken's Worst Films of 2010


6. Jonah Hex
- This film was simply boring to me. It was built up to be this action packed comic book film and it just fell on its face. I wanted to like this film, I really did but it just wasn't that good

5. Takers
- This film was extremely hyped up. Everybody I know loved this movie and built it up to be something great when in all actuality it was a film filled with shaky, unfocused camera work, spotty dialogue and a cliche story

4. Clash of the Titans

- I thought this film was gonna be really cool before it came out.. I was sadly disappointed. I can't really explain what went wrong with this one. It was just disappointing. One of the things that really stood out for me was the crappy CGI and once you mess that up, you've lost me.

3. Ong Bak 3

- *sighs* I had high hopes for this film. And I mean high! Ong bak 2 was a masterpiece! And I thought this would be no different... again I was wrong. They downgraded this franchise. The violent Tony Jaa fighting sequences were rare, the story was long and drawn out and the ending was so stupid! Although if this wasn't a follow up of Ong Bak 2, it would've been pretty decent


2. Harry Potter 7

- This film probably would not have been on this list if I cared about this franchise. But since I don't its on here. While watching this film, I was counting the minutes. Seriously counting the minutes until it was over. The action sequences were ok at best but overall they were lame and the story was long-winded and boring. I feel like this film was made only for the hardcore fans and I am not one of them

1. The Last Airbender

- When I think of the expectations I had for this film, it makes me wanna cry now. I was so hype for this!! I followed it from casting all the way to the first teaser trailer. This was finally gonna redeem M. Night's reputation. This was gonna be one of the year's best films... Yea hell no! This movie was the definition of disappointing. It was very drawn out and the action sequences were redundant. I was literally sitting in the theater reassuring myself that it was gonna get better, even into the last 20 minutes. That's how much faith I had in this film. M. Night Shymalan will make a come back, just not with this garbage. Sorry M. Night.

The Last Airbender Teaser Trailer



This is the teaser for the new M. Night Shyamalan movie based off the Avatar cartoon. You might want to get up on the cartoon because this movie looks really tough. Shyamalan is a Philly boy so I have to support and plus he makes some good movies. I'm definitely gonna peep this jawn next year when it comes out. This could possibly be an opening nighter.
