Ouch! Bella bleeds in new 'New Moon' clip

New Moon

It's another bright day for Twilighters, because MTV has just released a brand-new clip from Chris Weitz's upcoming "Twilight" sequel "The Twilight Saga: New Moon." Check it out after the jump.

And yes, Bella (Kristen Stewart) does bleed in this one-minute clip, which shows her enjoying some awkward time with the Cullen clan, including her vampire sweetheart Edward (Robert Pattinson).

As you know by now, the vamps adore blood and all, which makes this particular situation even more awkward. Poor Bella! In fact, this whole clip just feels a little awkward to me, but see for yourself.

'Men in Black 3' now in development

Men in Black 2

I don't think this is a real surprise, right? Considering franchise after franchise is being revived or rebooted or whatever right now, it would look weird if we didn't hear back from the "Men in Black."

As Variety reports, Columbia Pictures is definitely moving ahead with "Men in Black 3," and the studio has hired Etan Cohen to write the script for the third installment in the popular (and funny) sci-fi series.

Cohen co-wrote Ben Stiller's hilarious war comedy "Tropic Thunder." His recent credits also include "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa." He is also working on a "Sherlock Holmes" comedy and "Candy Land."

Movie Review: “Saw VI”

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra

Seen on: October 23, 2009

The players: Director: Kevin Greutert, Writers: Marcus Dunstan, Patrick Melton, Cast: Tobin Bell, Costas Mandylor, Mark Rolston, Betsy Russell, Shawnee Smith

Facts of interest: None.

The plot: When the FBI draws closer to Hoffman, he is forced to set a game into motion, and Jigsaw's grand scheme is finally understood.

Our thoughts: Kevin Greutert’s “Saw VI” definitely fails to revitalize the popular big-screen horror series, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s not as bad an installment as its two most recent predecessors. One thing is for certain though: this sixth film is still bloody and gives cinemagoers a better insight into Jigsaw’s entire scheme.

'Stomp the Yard 2' finds director

Stomp the Yard

I know this is absolutely no news to you, but I like to repeat it every now and then: there is absolutely no hope left for Hollywood. The sloppy sequels and remakes are winning, and it gets worse every day.

As you may have heard, Sylvain White's "Stomp the Yard" is getting a sequel too, and the film now officially has a director: Rob Hardy, who helmed 2005's "The Gospel" and produced the first "Yard."

The follow-up to the mediocre drama is titled "Stomp the Yard 2: Homecoming," and as The Hollywood Reporter points out, Columbus Short ("Armored") may return as a talented street dancer.

No need to explain what happened in the first film, because you can guess it already from these few words: street dancer, college, and zzzzzzzzz.... The first film bagged more then $74 million, by the way.

Teaser for 'Nanny McPhee' sequel hits

A first teaser trailer for Susanna White's upcoming sequel "Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang" has debuted on the Web earlier today, and you can check it out after the jump. It's short, so don't expect much.

In the follow-up to the 2005 family flick, Emma Thompson returns as the strict nanny who uses magic to get energetic kids under control and battle a villain while she's at it. The film opens in 2010.

As you can see below, the teaser is short and doesn't give us much story. It does gives us flying pigs though, and to be honest, that's not exactly stunning. I hope the "Big Bang" has more in store for us.

That said, count me among those who highly enjoyed the first film. It was goofy and fun, heartfelt and innovative, and it's something I can easily watch again. Plus, Emma Thompson is great, as usual.

Oh! First photos from 'Eclipse' hit the web

Thanks to the wonderful world of the wide Web, Twilighters can lead a happy existence, primarily because they can log on everyday and expect some kind of "Twilight" news spreading like a real plague.

Okay, I better pick my words carefully, because I'm definitely not in the mood for a series of attacks by crazy Twilighters angry at me for comparing the "Twilight" craze to a plague. Let me move on, then...

The first photos from David Slade's "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" have found their way to the online world. The pics have been scanned from a magazine, so don't expect awesome quality. See below.

What's up with 'Independence Day 2'?

Master destroyer Roland Emmerich wants to do another "Independence Day," but apparently, it's not that easy to get the ball rolling on a sequel to the 1996 sci-fi hit flick, which bagged $817 million worldwide.

Emmerich is currently out promoting his new action film "2012," and the guys at Latino Review asked the filmmaker about the status of a potential second "ID4." Right now, things don't look all that great.

Emmerich said he and Dean Devlin are ready to develop the project, but Fox is having issues working out the filmmakers' and Will Smith's deals. And, of course, you can't have "ID4" without Will, right?

Bryan Singer and X-Men

Many people out there either want to see or make more "X-Men" movies, and one of the folks dying to do more is Bryan Singer, who directed the first "X-Men" and then followed up with "X2."

The Hollywood Reporter says Singer has expressed great interest in making another "X-Men" film and has already talked to 20th Century Fox about his intentions to return to the popular franchise.

New 'Toy Story 3' trailer and posters hit

There's a new trailer for Pixar's upcoming sequel "Toy Story 3" on the Web, and you can check it out after the jump. This one looks great, and it's good to have Woody, Buzz and co. back in action onscreen.

I'm usually not a fan of animated sequels, but in the case of "Toy Story," I am more than willing to make an exception. I'm really looking forward to this third adventure, and this trailer sure won me over.

In the Lee Unkrich-directed film, Woody, Buzz, and the rest of their toy-box friends are dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, departs for college. But... no toy gets left behind!

What's up with 'The Brazilian Job'?

It's a question I've also been asking myself occasionally: What the heck is going on with "The Brazilian Job," the potential sequel to the highly entertaining 2003 action flick "The Italian Job"?

Director F. Gary Gray is currently promoting his new film "Law Abiding Citizen," and Coming Soon got a chance to ask him what he thinks about the future of "The Brazilian Job."
