The new sony Pictures Prepares Mount Everest Movie With Doug Liman
If pointing a movie is much like climbing a mountain, then imagine what type of Huge task Doug Liman has in front of him: he's planning to create a film according to probably the most legendary Mount Everest tales ever. Within the 20's, a guy through the title of George Mallory looked to become the very first guy to climb the mountain. After his first couple of attempts fell short, he attempted another time, but never was been told by again (his remains put together 70 years later). There's still some debate on whether Mallory managed to get towards the summit or otherwise. This won't be the very first time Mount Everest has portrayed in film. Most lately, 'Everest' -- an IMAX documentary read by Liam Neeson -- was launched in 1998. [via Deadline] Image thanks to AFP/Getty Images

Scientists Learn to Make Movies From Images...
Guess all those sci-fi thrillers in which people could tap into the movies unspooling in other people's heads -- think 'Brainstorm,' 'Dreamscape,' 'Blade Runner,' 'Total Recall,' 'The Cell' and 'Inception' -- weren't all that far-fetched. Scientists at the University of California at Berkeley have figured out how to reconstruct the movies people see in their minds. In a new study published in the journal Current Biology, the researchers recount how they showed subjects Hollywood movie trailers, used MRI scanners and computational models to record the brain activity associated with each image, then worked backwards and used the patterns of brain activity to predict and recreate the images that subjects were watching. Similar experiments have been done before with static images, but this is the first time scientists have succeeded with moving images. As the video below indicates, the computer model's predictive ability is still very crude. The scientists say we're still decades away from being able to use the technology to read the thoughts and dreams of others, as in movies like 'Inception' or 'Dreamscape.' Still, "this is a major leap toward reconstructing internal imagery," said Berkeley neuroscientist Jack Gallant, a coauthor of the study, in a statement. "We are opening a window into the movies in our minds." Watched Clips Compared to Reconstructed Images The technology could also eventually allow us to communicate with people who can't express themselves, like coma patients or stroke victims. It could also make communication easier for people with cerebral palsy. And it could help people with paralysis move about and manipulate objects. As for less heroic uses: think about what it could mean for Hollywood. Besides story ideas, it could help someone like James Cameron make a movie without spending $300 million, just by thinking it up. And wouldn't you want to tap into the movies playing in David Lynch's subconscious mind? Plus, you wouldn't have to go to the theater to see the movies; you could just download them into your cerebral cortex. Yeah, I know what you're thinking: Great, another piece of hardware I'll have to buy; another movie delivery system for Netflix to mess up. Follow Gary Susman on Twitter @garysusman.

'Friday Evening Lights' Cast Talks Emmy Reunion, Movie Update
Bill Records/NBC Obvious Eyes, Full Hearts, two Emmys. The cast of Friday Evening Lights had one eye around the past and the other around the future over Emmy weekend because they collected for any cast reunion in the appropriately named Dillon's in Hollywood. Best actress inside a drama nominee Connie Britton told The Hollywood Reporter around the Emmy red-colored carpet Sunday the idea to construct a cast reunion originated from the very best. "[Producers] Sarah Aubrey, Pete Berg and that i were speaking about carrying out a party and becoming everyone together," Britton stated. "Then Kyle Chandler known as me eventually from Austin and states, 'We gotta get each one of these individuals who aren't likely to have the ability to arrived at the Emmys together and remain out consuming through the night and celebrate it.' "It so happened that Sarah found Dillon's pub, which could not happen to be more perfect," she stated. STORY: Emmys 2011: 'Friday Evening Lights' Emmy Wins Spark Fan Craze For who had been there: Co-star Matt Lauria states it had been a complete house with cast and crew: Kyle Chandler, Britton, Berg, Aubrey, Lamarcus Mess (Mess), Michael B. Jordan (Vince), Kaira Leland (Buddy), Shaun Rosick (Buddy Junior.), Aimee Teegarden (Julie), Stacey Oristano (Mindy), Derek Phillips (Billy), Jurnee Smollett (Jess) and much more, with a few cast people pitching suggestions for the spoken-about Friday Evening Lights movie. STORY: Emmys 2011: Why Kyle Chandler Holds His Underdog Status (Q&A) "Luke would go to war and returns different brave soul he was when he left Dillon and he's prepared to settle lower with Becky," Lauria pitched. "He would go to Coach because he's gone AWOL and the father won't ever accept him. Or we expensive forward 5 years and we have already got just a little baby." Zach Gilford, meanwhile, skipped Saturday's party and it has their own idea for what's next for Matt and Julie. "Matt and Julie are married at this time, so I am the boy-in-law and I must appear in some way," he told THR, adding he hopes to become incorporated when the project does happen. "Maybe there is a kid, you never know. I am likely to start pitching story lines!" For other cast people, Saturday's reunion was a method to see cast people inside a different light. STORY: Emmys 2011: 10 Lengthy Shots Worth Watching "This is actually the very first time I have reached see everyone all outfitted up and never in jeans and cowboy boots," Oristano told THR, observing the drama series nomination "put everything into perspective." "It had been a household kind of reunion to celebrate this accomplishment and also the last five seasons." For Emmy champion Chandler, the Dillon's event certainly would be a family reunion. "Whenever you do one of these simple shows you absolutely be a pseudo family," he told THR. "It is like seeing your siblings and siblings again." "The show began great and ended great," Chandler stated. "People request me if I am upset it discontinued the environment and I only say no, we'd five really strong seasons. If you are in a position to be aware of people I could use in the the top to the the underside, it's among the finest encounters ever. For your show to obtain these accolades, it is a representation of how gifted and just how great these folks were." STORY: Emmys 2011: The Magnificent Seven from the Drama Actor Races For the fate from the film, Chandler noted he has not "thought much" about this and was coy when requested if he'd be up for this. "I've not been offered the task,Inch he joked. Britton, meanwhile, was gracious in defeat and stated she "never likely to win," but believed that once Jason Katims required home the Emmy drama writing statuette, she thought she might are able. "The truth that our little Friday Evening Lights got two wins where we never have any acknowledgement? It had been pretty great," she stated after. Katims, meanwhile, told THR earlier this year he was "seriousInch about creating the film happen which the project is greatly at the start stages. "At this time we are trying to puzzle out the storyline that you want to tell," he stated. "That's something hopefully may happen. What's essential for [the television series' cast] to understand is exactly what story we are telling. They've such pride within the show and care a lot about individuals figures. Before any serious conversations continue, you want to make certain that you will find there's great story."

Ensembles savor Emmy red carpet
As the temperature on the red carpet hit about 120 degrees Sunday afternoon, the swarms came. Everywhere you looked, there was a cast member from "Friday Night Lights," "Glee," "Modern Family," "Boardwalk Empire" or "Game of Thrones."TV's trend of expansive ensemble casts was vividly illustrated outside the Nokia Theater as groups of thesps as big as baseball teams walked the carpet to put on a last push before the big show began."Who wouldn't want to be here," said Angela Kinsey of "The Office" -- a pioneer in the big-cast movement.For the "Friday Night Lights" cast, the Emmycast really was a reunion as the show finished shooting its final season more than a year ago. A reunion party on Saturday night (at Hollywood's Dillon's Pub, appropriately enough) put them all in a full-hearts-clear-eyes-can't-lose mood."We've all stayed tight, but this is really our last big chance to get together" as a group, said Derek Phillips, aka Billy Riggins, as he strolled the carpet with Brad Leland (aka Buddy Garrity).However, there was much talk among the "FNL" troops about the prospect of a movie, which is said to be very much on the fast track for Peter Berg and key creatives at Universal. Connie Britton, for one, is eager to see it happen."I'll do Tami Taylor 'til the cows come home, as we say in Texas," Britton said.Zach Gilford (aka Matt Saracen) was happy to hang again with all his former teammates. But having been away from home for the past few months shooting movies, he confessed to a desire to return home to the new love of his life: a mutt he's just adopted from an animal shelter. "I got him off death row," Gilford said, proudly.**If Jon Cryer was fazed by the prospect of running into Charlie Sheen at the Emmy ceremony, he wasn't showing it. They haven't spoken since Sheen made his exit from "Two and a Half Men" in March, but Cryer wasn't looking to avoid his former co-star. "If I get a chance to see him I'll talk to him," he said. What might he say? "I'd say what anyone would say to a friend who went batshit crazy."**This year marks 26 consecutive Emmy ceremonies for Warner Bros. TV prexy Peter Roth. The one that stands out in his mind is 2003, when WBTV's "The West Wing" and "Friends" took the top drama and comedy series awards. "I love that it's a celebration of TV," he said of the kudofest. As he walked in to the theater, Roth said he had no worries about what the erstwhile star of "Two and a Half Men," Charlie Sheen, might say at his time at the Emmy mike. "Not concerned in the slightest," he said. As it turned out, he didn't need to be.**Chuck Lorre wasn't going there with the inevitable Charlie Sheen questions, either, as he walked the carpet with "Big Bang Theory" co-creator Bill Prady. Prady gave him comedy cover at times when the questioner didn't get the hint. Asked what their post-show plans were, Prady joked: "Chuck is a party animal, so tonight is about keeping up with Chuck. We'll be out until" Prady said, before Lorre interjected: "Ten."**Margo Martindale's signature awards-show apparel is something that no one will ever see in public: her lucky pink underpants. She was wearing them they day she was first getting dressed to play the indominatble Mags Bennett on "Justified." She actually didn't notice them but her costumer pointed them out. They've been her undergarment secret weapon ever since.**All of the 9/11 remembrances of the past few weeks have had a special resonance for "The Amazing Race" team. The show premiered on Sept. 5, 2001, and when the attacks hit the production had numerous crews shooting in various spots in the Middle East. Jonathan Littman, prexy of Jerry Bruckheimer TV and an exec producer of "Race," was convinced that the show would never see a second episode. "We were sure that CBS would pull us," he said. "And here we are 10 years later. I think maybe this show has done a little bit to show people that the world isn't such a dangerous place, and that everybody doesn't hate Americans out there."**"Downton Abbey" creator Julian Fellowes and wife Emma were tickled to realize that just as they stepped out of the limo at the Nokia, the premiere episode of "Abbey's" second season was finishing airing on the BBC (it'll bow in January on PBS). The experience of having a hit on both sides of the Pond has been "extraordinary," Fellowes said. "You can never predict these things, **Nobody was having a harder time dealing with heat of the afternoon than "Justified's" Walton Goggins, who was sweating buckets as he made the rounds. But he wasn't about to stop doing his duty because he'll take any chance to talk up the show and the character, Boyd Crowder, that he loves so much. Although he's as intense as it gets, Goggins loves the dark humor that the scribes inject to the character. And he loves doing that distinctive voice, which he credits to the inspiration of Elmore Leonard's words. "Elmore Leonard is just so cool, and Timothy Olyphant is cool, and so when these words started coming out of my mouth I knew I had to find a way to make them sound cool, and poetic."**Rico Rodriguez kept totally cool as his publicist strolled him past the screaming bleachers to chat up reporters on the red carpet. As his fame has soared in the past year with "Modern Family's" success, how has Rico managed to keep a semblance of a normal life for a 13-year-old boy? By edict of his parents. "They always tell me 'When you take off your clothes, you're still Rico.' And they also make me do chores." Like taking out the trash.**Oh, the dilemma of the dress. "Mad Men's" Jessica Pare couldn't decide whether to go with sequins or feathers for her first Emmy Awards turn, so she found a form-fitting gown that combined both. "The Big Bang Theory's" Kaley Cuoco put great time and effort into selecting her frock. She tried on at least 70, and wound up going with the first one she tried. "Now I know -- it's always the first dress," she said.**For Edie Falco, the highlight of coming to L.A. for awards season is the chance to see old friends, including "Sopranos" alums Terence Winter and Matthew Weiner. So was she conflicted about who to root for in the drama series category, Winter's "Boardwalk Empire" or Weiner's "Mad Men"?"I don't even know who's up," she said, convincingly. "I just come, put on a dress and hang out with my friends."**Louis C.K. had a energetic morning before heading to the Nokia. He went for a long jog, topped off by a Twinkie for breakfast. He had no expectations of prevailing in the lead comedy actor heat for his oddball FX laffer "Louie," but he knows the value of simply being invited to the Emmy dance. "It's a reward to (FX topper) John Landgraf for making it," he said. "So maybe it means a little extended airtime in the long run."

Letter From Toronto: Even Killer Elite Can't Quite Rival Emmerich's Anonymous
The Toronto Film Festival is a world away from Venice, and the difference is especially acute when you hop from one to the other: Toronto is big and glossy, while Venice is intimate and glowing — it’s like the difference between lacquer and gold leaf. But each has its own appeal, and the scale of Toronto is appealing by itself. It’s a little overwhelming but exhilarating, too. Still, my morning didn’t exactly start off with a bang: The day’s first screening, of Gary McKendry’s Killer Elite, began half an hour late, the kind of glitch that can seriously mess up an already tight morning schedule. Worse yet, the movie wasn’t all I was hoping it would be. It wasn’t even half what I was hoping it would be. Jason Statham plays a retired Navy SEAL called out of retirement — doesn’t Statham always play reluctant hit men who just want to retire to a cabin in the woods? — to rescue an old pal, Robert De Niro, who’s been kidnapped by a sheik out to avenge the murder of his sons. Clive Owen plays a member of a Special Air Service vigilante group who’s out to stop Statham and his gang. While the idea of having three fine actors in an action movie together is certainly promising, Killer Elite proves that it doesn’t really matter who you cast if the filmmaking is just more of the same old choppily edited, noisy action crap. De Niro’s character spends most of the movie out of sight, locked up in a room somewhere, though De Niro isn’t bad in the 10 or 15 minutes of screentime he’s got — he puts his crazy twinkle to good use. And he does get to fire a machine gun, which is probably a lot more fun for him than playing Pops Focker for the umpteenth time. Statham and Owen are fine, too, to the extent that they get to do anything. But I’m not sure the best way to use these two actors is to throw them into a blur of grappling, grunting, head-bashing and attempted scissor-stabbing, which is how they first come together. As we already know from movies like Croupier, The International and Children of Men, Owen has much more to offer, and Statham, who was terrific in The Bank Job, desperately needs to break out of the reluctant-action-hero mold he’s been locked into. Killer Elite is a middling entertainment — not terrible, just undistinguished, and maybe that’s worse. In contrast, Roland Emmerich’s Anonymous is, at the very least, a curiosity, one with some clever casting and a very fine performance at its core. Emmerich is usually too busy destroying the world or going back in time to cavort with woolly mammoths to give much thought to who, exactly, Shakespeare really was. But that’s exactly what he does in Anonymous, which suggests — in a highly unbelievable fashion — that the plays and poems we attribute to Shakespeare were really written by one Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford, a minor Elizabethan poet. Well, it could be true. Emmerich treats the possibility solemnly, welcoming us into his movie with a tony intro by Derek Jacobi, who steps into a theater spotlight to deliver a semi-informative prologue in plummy tones. The whole affair is rather silly, and more than a little boring, but there are a few flashes of brilliance tucked amid Emmerich’s bid for period-picture classiness. First, there’s the inspired casting of Vanessa Redgrave and her daughter, Joely Richardson, as old and young versions of Queen Elizabeth I. Richardson, with her tumble of pale curls, looks like a living, breathing version of John Millais’ Ophelia, but tougher. Redgrave plays her version of the character as if she has become more emotionally vulnerable, not less, with age — the older Elizabeth just works harder to submerge it beneath her imperious veneer. Both performances are great fun to watch, but it’s Rhys Ifans, as the Earl of Oxford, who keeps the movie spinning. He takes dorky, grandiose dialogue and turns it into something almost — well, Shakespearean. His character has spent his life writing incredible plays and sonnets, but he’s forced to hide his identity from the public. As Ifans plays him, he’s OK with all that — it’s the personal anguish he’s suffered that really matters, and Ifans carries that bruised nobility with him every second. His voice, sonorous and always just faintly sorrowful, reminds me of that of the late, great Richard Harris. Although Harris was Irish and Ifans is Welsh, they’re linked in spirit, rapscallions who can really buckle down and surprise you with their depth and heart. I giggled at parts of Anonymous, especially when our earl’s angry, disapproving wife catches him at his desk and bellows, like Gale Sondergaard with PMS, “My God! You’re writing again!” But I never laughed at Ifans. When you look into those eyes, you could almost believe that this was the guy who wrote all those sonnets.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- The controversy surrounding the casting of Chaz Bono on Season 13 of Dancing with the Stars is something that hit close to home for David Arquette. Access Hollywood caught up with the actor on Wednesday during a rehearsal with professional partner Kym Johnson, where he weighed in on the Chaz chatter. I think its amazing.

Andy Mooney Steps Down As Disney Consumer Products Boss
Andrew Mooney, who for the past 12 years has overseen one the of the world’s most lucrative merchandisers as head of Disney Consumer Products, has resigned. He joined Disney’s most profitable unit as president in 1999 and was upped to chairman in May 2003. No word yet on what “a leadership role with another organization” means. Here’s the email he sent to employees today: Its never easy to leave a place you love, but today I informed Bob Iger that Ive made the difficult decision to resign as Chairman of Disney Consumer Products. After 30 years contributing to the success of two of the worlds most valuable brands in Disney and Nike, I believe this is the perfect time to take that experience into a leadership role with another organization and corporate boards. It has been a tremendous honor to have worked for a company like Disney for more than 11 years and for a leader like Bob. But what I will miss the most and what I will always treasure is the experience to have worked with such a talented group of people at DCP. Together, we have radically changed the licensing business, created new brands and franchises like Disney Princess and Disney Fairies, creatively re-energized the Disney Store chain and launched new businesses like Disney English. All of this has resulted in year upon year growth and doubling of our creative output. Im proud and grateful to have had the honor of calling each one of you a colleague and am confident that DCP is well-positioned to continue this momentum for many years. I thank Bob for his understanding in my desire to pursue other ambitions as well as his guidance and friendship over the last 11 years.Watch Transformers 3 For Free
