Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen owns Razzies

Being one of the worst movies last year, despite the money involved in making it, even the money that made from the fans, I'm not surprised that Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has got even three Razzies.

Worst picture, worst director (Michael Bay) and worst screenplay (Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci & Ehren Kruger).

Deserved.

Star Trek 2 gets a release date

We knew that there will be a sequel even before the release of the fist J.J. Ambrams' Star Trek re-boot. The sequel to Star Trek will be be released on June 29, 2012. There's no other info than this, except that most of the cast from the first part will return to reprise their roles.

J.J. Abrams' Star Trek grossed $385,459,120 and had $150 million budget. It was one of the most anticipated movies of 2009.

10 most anticipated movies, games and TV shows in 2010

This year we can expect some great movies, shows, games and events that already got people's attention towards them.

1. Lost final season
- The premiere is set on February 2nd. One of the best shows of all time is coming to it's end. I know I'll miss it.

2. Iron Man 2
- The sequel of Marvel's best movie adaptation so far comes out in May 2010. Check out the trailer.

3. Star Wars: The Old Republic
- What has more fans? Star Wars or World of Warcraft? No, really, it's a stupid to compare, but how many of you will rather play Star Wars MMOPRG? I'm a World of Warcraft player for years now, and I know I'll be switching to Star Wars: The Old Republic. Check out the new Alderaan footage here.

4. Star Trek Online
- Another MMORPG, this time set in the Star Trek universe. The game was delayed for years and I really hope that will come out finally.

5. Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland
- This one comes out in two months and I'm very excited. I love almost every Tim Burton movie and can't wait to finally see this. There's one world where every Burton's movie takes place. That world has many Johnny Depp clones.

6. God of War 3
- PS3 players will soon enjoy in the new God of War game. The first two are considered to be the one of the best games for PS2. I'm sure God of War 3 will continue the tradition of good gaming.

7. Family Guy: We Have A Bad Feeling About This
- The current season will end with the third Family Guy Star Wars parody. This time they're doing Return of the Jedi.
8. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1
- Yeah, they separated them to get more money, hehe. The first part of the final Harry Potter adventure will premiere in November.

9. Final Fantasy XIII
- Another PS3 gem for the players and probably the best RPG for 2010, if not the best RPG ever. We'll just relax and wait to come out.

10. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2
- A sequel to the best Star Wars game, comes out at the end of this year. There's only a teaser trailer so far and almost no other info. I'll keep an eye of every single piece of info, that's for sure.

Visual Effects Oscar List

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ visual effects branch announced a list of seven films on the short list for the Visual Effects Oscar.

The Hobbit starts shooting in June

Finally, Guillermo del Toro's adaptation of Tolkien's classic The Hobbit, starts shooting this June in New Zealand. New Zealand seems like a perfect place for shooting a movie based on a Tolkien's book. We all know how great is the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The production of the two films will take 18 months to finish. The first movie will be released in 2011, and the second, one year after.

Peter Jackson stepped out the director's role in early phase of production, handling the command to Guillermo del Toro.
The main reasoning appears to be timetable conflicts with other directing commitments Jackson already have.

No actor has been cast as Bilbo Baggins so far.
