Eddie MurphyThe next year will be the 84th edition of the Oscars and according to the known site The Hollywood Reporter, there is one candidate that stands out among the other names as a possible presenter for the awards ceremony of the most important awards cinema worldwide.

As you know, sometimes the candidates to present the show of the Oscar go to wake up even more excitement than the candidates to rise with the statuette, and also for some years, the Academy is betting on animated presentations, trying to show that the ceremony of the Oscars is not boring and can also attract a wider audience youth.

Last year in charge of this work were James Franco and Anne Hathaway Representatives of the generation of actors who have won youth in Hollywood. However, this bet proved a failure, and the ceremony received much criticism, as well as presenters, especially Franco, whom they accused of being too cold and boring.

Perhaps to make sure not to repeat the mistake, the candidate of which I speak, and most likely will be in charge of presenting the show, is an expert in comedy. It is none other than Eddie Murphy. Can you imagine as the host of the Oscars? Like the idea or have other top candidates in mind?

Late Edition: The Academy has just issued a statement confirming the news, so it’s official that Murphy presented the gala.

The Adventures Of Tintin: Secret Of The Unicorn 3D10 years ago, Steven Spielberg announced that he would be producing a movie based on The Adventures of Tintin. Today, we see the first official trailer for the decade of working with Peter Jackson, where she gave birth to the popular world created by Belgian artist Hergé. The film, which has among its actors Daniel Craig, Jamie Bell and Simon Pegg, will be premiering around the world later this year and looks great.

For many years there has been talk of a film based on The Adventures of Tintin by Steven Spielberg directed and produced by Peter Jackson. Since 2001, more specific, when Spielberg announced he would be using computer animation to give life to the world of Tintin, an idea that the producer Jackson recommended as a film with people of flesh and blood would not do justice to the created world by the Belgian artist Georges Remi, under the pseudonym Hergé. Finally, after so many years, we have the first look at this product in the form of a trailer. The original name of this production is The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn, however, TinTin Movie is not based on this unique adventure but will be a mixture of three stories: The Crab With The Golden Claws, Red Rackham’s Treasure and, indeed, The Secret of the Unicorn. The Adventures of Tintin detail his first meeting with Captain Haddock and the discovery of a track that will lead to the treasure of Sir Francis Haddock. A trip made with a convict escaped from prison and the detectives Thompson and Thomson.

We know that Steven Spielberg will direct, but the adaptation of three stories was written by a duo of experienced writers like Steven Moffat (Coupling and Doctor Who) and Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World) with assistance from the comedian Steven Moffat. In this blockbuster, we see names like Daniel Craig, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, who will perform the detectives Thompson and Thomson correspondingly, Cary Elwes, Andy Serkis, Daniel Mays and Toby Jones, Jamie Bell, accompanying take a lead role as Tintin. As if all this were not enough talented people, the music will be composed by John Williams, who needs no introduction, much less credentials. There is no other than marvel at the team they’ve assembled for this production and even more so as it looks, using the same technology seen in The Polar Express and Avatar to capture the performance of the actors and put it into computer animation without to lose a bit of his art. Will have to see the final result, in December this year when it opens around the world.

If you’re a fan of horror movies, sure you know (and if you don’t have to run to the video store) franchise Paranormal Activity, which combines psychological horror and the supernatural component to keep gripping the cinema seat scared to death. Well, after the huge success of past installments (the first was a real boom), comes the third.

The trailer came out a while ago, but there was so much news this week I left for another time, because after all not very prominent news, as the trailer it says almost nothing of the film. It is usual for Paranormal Activity where we usually know what the argument is that in a family house strange things happen.

Like I said, the argument only knows that, and it is likely that we will not know anything more until we have seen the film. Was released in the U.S. on October 21, and this film will not take long to get to Europe, because the Paranormal Activity movie has many fans in this continent.

In case you don’t know much about Paranormal Activity 3, I will tell you that the first had a very effective advertising campaign in which he said that the movie was real and the recorded images were taken from a camera found, etc… You know, the typical gimmick already used before with The draft Blair Witch. And precisely why the films of this saga play with the home component and show everything like that, a home recording of the family in question.

I clarified that it is not necessary to have seen the two previous to see it. And I leave you now with the trailer, it does not have much, but it shows that the film remains in the line of the first two.
