New DVD Releases for the Week of July 7 2009
Here is a list of the new DVD Releases for the week of July 7 2009 (for TV on DVD releases head over to Daemon's TV):
Knowing
Synopsis: In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule. But one of the students, a mysterious girl who seems to hear whispered voices, fills her sheet of paper with rows of apparently random numbers instead.
Fast forward 50 years to the present: A new generation of students examines the contents of the time capsule and the girl's cryptic message ends up in the hands of young Caleb Myles. But it is Caleb's father, professor Ted Myles (Nicolas Cage), who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. As Ted further unravels the document's secrets, he realizes it foretells three additional events—the last of which hints at destruction on a global scale and seems to somehow involve Ted and his son.
When Ted's attempts to alert the authorities fall on deaf ears, he takes it upon himself to try to prevent more destruction from taking place.
This gripping supernatural thriller charts one man's faltering steps towards belief in the ultimate order of the universe even as he finds himself surrounded by mounting chaos. With the reluctant help of Diana Whelan (Rose Byrne) and Abby, the daughter and granddaughter of the now-deceased author of the cryptic prophecies, Ted's increasingly desperate efforts take him on a heart-pounding race against time until he finds himself facing the ultimate disaster—and the ultimate sacrifice.
Cast: Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne, Ben Mendelsohn, Liam Hemsworth
Director: Alex Proyas
Recommendations: I'm always in for a good entertaining flick with Nicolas Cage.

KNOWING Pictures Comic Con 2008 Panel
Here are some pictures from the KNOWING panel at Comic Con 2008. Appearing was only director Alex Proyas.
Knowing stars Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne, but they weren't there to talk about the movie. This is probably the movie I am the least excited about from Comic Con. But I'm still going to see it, which is a testament to how good the movies at Comic Con were this year. More info on Knowing coming soon.

KNOWING (2009) - Movie Trailer
Title: KNOWING
Director: Alex Proyas
Cast: Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne, Chandler Canterbury, and Adrienne Pickering
Plot: A teacher (Cage) opens a time capsule that has been dug up at his son's elementary school; in it are some chilling predictions -- some that have already occurred and others that are about to -- that lead him to believe his family plays a role in the events that are about to unfold. (Source: imdb.com)
Release Date: 20 March 2009
Thoughts: The concept sounds really intriguing and cool. The only thing I worry about is that the ending will just be a cop out. Still Nicolas Cage is always fun to watch, and so I will most likely be checking out Knowing next year when it comes out the theaters.
