Making it two for two on this post-tiff Monday, Sony Pictures Classics have acquired the rights to Aaron Schneider’s feature debut - a picture that I had little affection for, but this backwoods 30's dramedy managed to find some strong critical support from Variety and Indiewire's Anne Thompson and even bud Alex Billington from Firstshowing was charmed. - Making it two for two on this post-tiff Monday, Sony Pictures Classics have acquired the rights to Aaron Schneider’s feature debut - a picture that I had little affection for, but this backwoods 30's dramedy managed to find some strong critical support from Variety and Indiewire's Anne Thompson and even bud Alex Billington from Firstshowing was charmed.

Celebrating cinematic birthdays for 11/29. Which celebrity would you most like to spank today?
Blond³: Diane, Anna and Cathy
1832 Louisa May Alcott wrote the oft-adapted Little Women
1895 Busby Berkeley, legendary choreographer/director. What would the early musicals have been without him?
1898 C.S. Lewis wrote the Chronicles of Narnia which were made into unfortunately generic movies. He also wrote The Screwtape Letters which I personally pray will never see the silver screen despite Hollywood's efforts. Some books just deserve the undiluted perfection of their original form. Sir Anthony Hopkins played him in the weepy bio Shadowlands (1993)
1901 Mildred Harris, silent film actress and Mrs Charlie Chaplin (for a few years)
1918 Madeleine L'Engle prolific author, most famous for Wrinkle in Time
1931 Shintarô Katsu the original blind swordsman Zatoichi
1932 Diane Ladd, if you don't love her Oscar nom'ed performances in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, Rambling Rose and Wild at Heart, well... what's wrong with you? »

If there weren’t enough biblical, end of the world films around at the moment then there is one more that should be top of everybody’s list, and that my friends, is Legion. Starring Paul Bettany, Dennis Quaid, Adrianne Palicki, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson and Kevin Durand, Legion is a kick-ass God vs Us film in which mankind’s only hopes rest with the fallen angel Michael. Roughly translated: awesome action with dark, religious undertones – bring me the popcorn!
With the movie’s release drawing ever nearer, a legion (’scuse me) of new images have been released for the film. Check out a handful below, click on them to be taken through to the rest!
Scott Stewart’s supernatural thriller Legion, scripted by Peter Schink, concerns a group of strangers in an out-of-the-way eatery who become the first line of defense when God, believing the human race is no longer worthy of Him, »

Last week I went to Sony Studios for a set visit on Priest. While I’m embargoed from saying anything on that film, while I was there, we were shown around 20 minutes from Screen Gems upcoming Legion, and we were also provided a number of new images from the film.
If you’re not familiar with Legion, it’s a supernatural action thriller where an out-of-the-way diner becomes the unlikely battleground for the survival of the human race. When God loses faith in Mankind, he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Humanity’s only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael (Paul Bettany). Legion also stars Dennis Quaid, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson, Kate Walsh, Adrianne Palicki, Charles S. Dutton and Willa Holland.
Hit the jump for my thoughts on the footage and the images:

Check out images from two Sony Pictures releases in different genres. "Legion" stars Paul Bettany (Archangel Michael), Dennis Quaid (Bob Hanson), Kevin Durand (Gabriel), Kate Walsh (Sandra Anderson), Lucas Black (Keep Hanson), Adrianne Palicki (Charlie), Tyrese Gibson (Kyle Williams) and Charles S. Dutton (Percy Walker). Scott Stewart helms the dark fantasy actioner as well as writing the screenplay alongside Peter Schink. David Lancaster and Michel Litvak produce. The comedy Did You Hear About the Morgans? follows a highly successful Manhattan couple, Meryl and Paul Morgan (Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant), whose almost-perfect lives have only one notable failure – their dissolving marriage. But the turmoil of their romantic lives is nothing compared to what they are about to experience: they witness a murder... »

We're ridiculously excited about Legion, wherein Paul Bettany plays the Archangel Michael, opening up a can of whoop-ass on the heavenly hosts in order to safeguard humanity from a vengeful God. And our excitement has only increased with these rather nice new character banners over on JoBlo.com.Here we get Paul Bettany as Michael and Kevin Durrand as bad guy (insofar as that's possible for an archangel) Gabriel. Also present and correct are the human also-rans: Dennis Quaid's Bob Hanson, Lucas Black's Jeep Hanson, Tyrese Gibson as Kyle Williams and Adrianne Palicki as Charlie, the pregnant waitress whose unborn child is the Second Coming and the only being that can save the world. Click the image above for the full gallery on JoBlo.com Legion is out on March 5, 2010, which by our count is not nearly soon enough. »

The title says it all really doesn’t it? The new posters premiered over at JoBlo, but of course being a huge Paul Bettany fan, and loving the idea of Legion, I had to post them for you dear reader.
Each character poster features a member of the cast – Paul Bettany, Dennis Quaid, Adrianne Palicki, Lucas Black, Tyrese and Kevin Durand, and for those eagle eyed readers out there – yes each poster makes up a biblical quote from Matthew 13:49 which reads:
So it will be at the end of the age the angels will come forth to take out the wicked and throw them into the furnace of fire.
Check them out below in our gallery and as always, click to enlarge!

In its promotion effort, "Legion" unleashes six new character banners through Joblo. Each of the posters highlights on some of the main characters, namely Dennis Quaid's Bob Hanson, Adrianne Palicki's Charlie, Paul Bettany's the archangel Michael, Lucas Black's Jeep Hanson, Tyrese Gibson's Kyle Williams and Kevin Durand's the archangel Gabriel.
While the fresh banners are separate pieces of art, each of them contains partial biblical quotation of Matthew 13:49. Hence, if combined together in the correct order, they will spell out, "So it will be at the end of the age the angels will come forth to take out the wicked and throw them into the furnace of fire."
"Legion" takes place after God loses faith in humanity. As He sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse, the archangel Michael comes to stand between mankind and the apocalypse. Defending humanity's only hope, »

Six new badass posters of some of the characters from Scott Stewart's upcoming angels vs. angels smackdown Legion showed up online today, and they also come with a message.
Arrow in the Head snagged the exclusive look at the posters, which, when viewed together, spell out the following ominous quote: "So it will be at the end of the age the angels will come forth to take out the wicked and throw them into the furnace of fire."
We've heard a lot already from two of the guys who are in the flick (Dennis Quaid and Paul Bettany) so I thought it appropriate to show off Adrianne Palicki ("Supernatural", "Friday Night Lights") in full-on warrior mode. Here's a quick reminder of the storyline: After a terrifying Biblical apocalypse descends upon the world, a group of strangers stranded in a remote truck stop diner in the Southwest unwittingly become humanity's »

There haven’t been a ton of trailers this year that have genuinely put a smile on my face. The red-band trailer for “Legion,” however, was one of them. I don’t know if everything I smiled at was the desired reaction, however I smiled and that means I’m going to see the film. Anyhow, some new banner images have just been revealed for “Legion,” and they look pretty decent. Amongst them Charles S. Dutton does not appear, and that doesn’t speak too well for the mortality of his character. Hit the jump to see them:
Here’s the synopsis:
The lord is unhappy with us, and he plans to end us by enforcing the Apocalypse. However, mankind has a savior, and it is the unborn child of an incredibly sexy waitress (Adrianne Palicki) from Podunk, Desert (not a real place, as of yet.). Lucky for us not »
