last night while listening to the Oxygen Network (i passed out with TV on)there was a commercial for the Broadcast Premiere of "Phantom of the Opera." excited is not the word i would use to describe how i felt during my semi-conscious state about this information, but knew i would get sucked into watching part of it because i adore Gerard Butler. when Phantom was released in theathers, i saw it with my brother and Aasbo, and it was pretty painful to sit through...really painful. anyone who has seen this movie knows WTF i'm talking about because it's on a level of ridiculousness that only Joel Schumacher could achieve (Batman & Robin anyone!) seeing that trailer and thinking about "300" today lead me to wonder what Gerard was up to next (i've been a fan of his since Dracula 2000, but refused to sit through P.S I Love You.)it turns out Gerard's next film is Guy Ritchie's highly anticipated RocknRolla. the only trailer i've been able to find can be seen here. RocknRolla also stars the gorgeous Thandie Newton, Jeremy Piven, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Tom Wilkinson and the awesome and incredible Idris Elba (a.k.a Stringer Bell from "The Wire," a.k.a the greatest show that's ever been on TV.) according to imdb the plot is: In London, a stolen painting pits some of the city's scrappiest tough guys (Butler, Elba) against its more established underworld players (Wilkinson). hopefully this movie won't suck like "Phantom" did, though to be honest i'm not too crazy about this trailer. it makes the movie look like a "Layer Cake" "Smokin Aces" mash up. it opens on October 31 (spooooooooooooky.)
