STUNNING TRAILER FOR HISTORICAL EPIC "HENRY OF NAVARRE"! "WICKED LOVELY" FAERY WORLD! JASON BATEMAN & VINCE VAUGHN IN "THE INSANE LAWS". "DICK TRACY" SEQUEL COMING OUR WAY?

If you like comedies you might like THE INSANE LAWS in which Jason Bateman and Vince Vaughn will portray two great friends whose lives become a living hell when their college kids
fall in love with each other. And the hell becomes bigger when their kids get pregnant :) I'm not sure, I personally didn't like the original film, but for some reason DICK TRACY is getting a sequel, at least that's what Warren Beauty claims. He recently won the legal battle over the rights on the movie adaptation which have been his since the 80's but he didn't do anything with it.

According to "Deadline", Universal is ready for the movie adaptation of Melissa Marr's bestseller WICKED LOVELY which follows a young teen who has seen dangerous faeries her
entire life but has managed to survive by adhering to a strict set of rules that have kept her safe…until now. The 17-year-old will suddenly find herself torn between a seductive Faery king and the mortal she loves, and she will have to go against everything she was taught in order to confront a world she was raised to fear. After HUNGER GAMES, MORTAL INSTRUMENTS, DIVERGENT and INCARCERON, this is yet another YA book getting a film adaptation.

Over at "Beyond Hollywood" I recently came upon this 2010 German epic film which is actually coming to DVD market in USA this July: HENRY OF NAVARRE is a wide-ranging, energetic period piece tracing the rise of Henry of Navarre as he goes from battlefield warrior to France's beloved King Henri IV. The film
brings a classically entertaining adventure, albeit one with more than a little bloodshed and frequent bawdy sexual interludes. In late 16th-century France, Catholics and Protestant Huguenots were at war. Seemingly seeking peace, the French dowager queen, Catherine de Medici summons Henry to her court to have him marry her daughter, Margot, uniting the two warring factions. However, the Catholics slaughter the Protestant wedding guests in what became known as the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre and Henry, now married, must use all his guile to both stay alive and maneuver for the throne.
