Earlier today, I was at the American Film Market in Santa Monica. If you’re not familiar with AFM, it’s the place where film buyers from around the world come once a year to buy movies and also pre-buy films in development. Simply put, this is where a lot of money changes hands in the film industry and it’s where many decisions about what you and I get to see are made. In an effort to try and raise a film’s profile or attract film buyers, many of the studios print up promo art for movies in development or nearing completion. Almost none of the artwork will ever see the light of day outside of AFM, but if you’re a film junkie like me, then getting to see all this stuff is Christmas. After the jump you can take a look at the first grouping of random promo posters and artwork from today. You can also see the first images from Rogues Gallery and The Experiment.

Now for the other bit of news: When I was walking around, I got to see even more awesome stuff. The first was the AFM only red band trailer for Hot Tub Time Machine! To say it looked painfully hilarious would be a huge understatement. The other thing I saw was a promo poster for Robert Rodriguez’s Machete featuring Lindsay Lohan in a nun’s outfit while being very friendly to a firearm. Read more on the trailer, poster, and a whole lot else after the jump:

Exclusive: Writer/Director Richard Kelly Comic-Con Video Interview – THE BOX

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: July 30th, 2009 at 6:05 pm

Writer/director Richard Kelly’s new movie “The Box” arrives in theaters this October. The film asks the question what if someone gave you a box containing a button that, if pushed, would bring you a million dollars…but simultaneously take the life of someone you don’t know? Would you do it? And what would be the consequences? Sounds cool, doesn’t it.

So at this year’s Comic-Con, I managed to get an extended interview with Richard Kelly and we talked about “The Box”, the movies he producing like “World’s Greatest Dad”, Comic-Con, “Avatar”, his next script, 3D, the state of the film industry, and a lot more. It’s a great interview and one worth watching. Take a look after the jump:
