		<description><![CDATA[IMDB now list the U.K. release for THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON as being February 7th 2009, I don't know if I can wait that long, really. I'm anxious as hell to see what David Fincher and Brad Pitt have concoted here, this is exactly the kind of sci-fi/love story that hits the right beats in my conscious mind.



David Fincher and Brad Pitt appeared on Charlie Rose this week to discuss the movie, in what is a pretty cool long assed interview...

		<description><![CDATA[Variety have posted their reviews for David Fincher's THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON and both their top dogs Todd McCarthy and Anne Thompson had extremely similar reactions to the movie.



In summation, they both found the movie to have an odd "cold" aspect to it (which ZODIAC also carried I believe but it is the Fincher style we have become use to is it not?) with a wonderfully satisfying love story and poignancy at it's heart.

Though both claim the movie needs some luck if it's going to be a success for Paramount. You can see the critics reviews after the new international trailer which debuted over the weekend and has me totally excited for this movie...


Todd McCarthy...
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" represents a richly satisfying serving of deep-dish Hollywood storytelling. An example of the most advanced technology placed entirely at the service of story and character, this significant change-of-pace from director David Fincher poses some daunting marketing challenges, even with Brad Pitt atop the cast. Strong critical support will be needed to swell interest in this absorbing, even moving, but emotionally cool film, which is simultaneously accessible and distinctive enough to catch on with a large public if luck ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amazingly, because I think the movie looks incredible, every time I read feedback from those that have seen substantial footage from David Fincher's next movie THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON, it's always been incredibly negative.

I know /film weren't impressed when they saw a twenty minute chunk of the movie earlier in the year at the Telluride Film Festival and Jeffrey Wells who saw the same footage, called it "vaguely underwhelming."

Now IndieWire are voicing their dislike of the movie, which they have seen in full. You can read the site's comments after these new posters I stumbled across at The Playlist...



IndieWire's Eugene Hernandez...
"While I feel that “Benjamin Button” is, on first viewing, hardly a lock for best picture, the attention that will justifiably be paid to its considerable technological achievements could sweep it into the higher profile categories. (”Forrest Gump” was popular with the Academy and there are some parallel’s here). But, as I was telling a friend today, for a much more striking and beautiful marriage of technology and ideas, I’d encourage folks to watch “WALL-E” again."
Peter Knegt, also from IndieWire says:
"It is almost certain to get tons of artistic and technical nods, and maybe that will help it ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Belated marketing has finally started to kick in for two movies that I'm very much anticipating but have been saddened by the lack of marketing coverage so far.

Those movies being THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON from director David Fincher and DEFIANCE from Edward Zwick.



BENJAMIN BUTTON opens on Christmas Day in the U.S. and I believe this is actually the first poster artwork from the movie, it sure seems like Paramount are very unsure of how to promote this movie.

Which is disappointing because the only trailer we have seen so far which you can still see in HD was absolutely stunning and you have two of the biggest stars of both their respective sexes right now in Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett.

Thanks to Fincherfanatic via /film.

Second is DEFIANCE, the new Daniel Craig movie which has certainly been over-shadowed by QUANTUM OF SOLACE...



James Bond versus the Nazi's?

Awesome. Thanks to IESB for this one.

DEFIANCE opens on limited release in the U.S. on Dec. 31st and in the U.K. from Jan. 9th. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Paramount Pictures have released a second and much longer trailer for David Fincher's upcoming sci-fi drama THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON.

The movie stars Brad Pitt in the spectacular story of a child born with the physical attributes of an 80 year old man who lives life aging backwards. Beginning in 1918 New Orleans, we see his life and the world around him change, and a blossoming romance with Cate Blanchett who he meets when she is just a teenager, and he is an old man.

The trailer pretty much showcases the whole film and the direction the movie is going to go, which is a little unfortunate but you can't help but be sucked in by this fascinating story.

The CGI on Pitt looks particularly amazing, I love the atmosphere that Fincher is able to create.

A must see for me. The movie opens on Christmas Day in the U.S. and a week later in the U.K. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I can't express how incredibly excited I am to see David Fincher's follow-up to Zodiac, the much anticipated sci-fi/drama The Curious Case of Benjamin Button which re-teams the director with his Fight Club and Se7en star Brad Pitt.


The movie is an adaptation of a 1920's F. Scott Fitzgerald short story where our lead Pitt starts aging backwards, which has disastrous consequences for his life, specifically his relationship with Cate Blanchett.

The movie whose colour scheme and feel looks like a blending of Cronenberg's Eastern Promises mixed with Shyamalan's Unbreakable but with Fincher's ever distinct mark.

This pretty epic sized t.v. spot aired during the Olympic Games on Sunday night, sadly it ain't the best quality but it's actually the most footage we have seen of the movie so far. I believe it even gives us more glimpses at the film than the trailer.

Look for it on December 19th (U.S.) and 22nd January (U.K.) ]]></description>
