Ingmar Bergman (July 14, 1918 – July 30, 2007)
Bergman died at his home in Faro, Sweden, his daughter Eva Bergman told Swedish media. A cause of death wasn't immediately available, but according to friends, he had never fully recovered from an October hip operation.
Bergman's "The Virgin Spring" (1960), "Through a Glass Darkly" (1961) and "Fanny and Alexander" (1982) won the foreign-language Academy Award. The director also won the Irving Thalberg Award as well as the Directors Guild of America's D.W. Griffith Award for lifetime contribution.

The Mist (Movie Watch)
Following a violent thunderstorm, artist David Drayton & a small town community come under vicious attack from creatures prowling in a thick & unnatural mist. Local rumors point to an experiment called the 'The Arrowhead Project' conducted at a nearby top-secret military base, but questions as to the origins of the deadly vapor are secondary to the group's overall chances for survival. Retreating to a local supermarket, Drayton & the survivors must face-off against each other before taking a united stand against an enemy they cannot even see!

The Incredible Hulk (Photo Release)
The image is of a very sad character, with very human features. He's obviously not as green as the hulk in the 2003 Ang Lee version. Plus during the same panel, Norton actually mentioned that the goal is to have him be as real as possible. In this re-do, Bruce Banner lives in the shadows, scouring the planet for an antidote. Upon returning to civilization, Banner is ruthlessly pursued by The Abomination -- a nightmarish beast of pure adrenaline & aggression whose powers match The Hulk's own.

Southland Tales (Graded)
Kelly stated at the Comic-Con that, "[We made] a lot of editorial changes in terms of restructuring the order of scenes, We re-recorded all of Justin Timberlake's voice-over & we added, like, 90 new visual-effects shots. It was truly like a work of progress." He also added that the movie has been cut by 20-25 minutes from its initial cut, which was nearly three hours long.

Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull (Comic-Con Poster)
The Poster is a cool gift but a few scenes from the movie, like a teaser trailer, would be better. Anyhow stay tuned to see what Paramount Pictures has planned for the event & whether we will get more than just this simple poster.
Very recently, a rumor got out that this film is part of a trilogy, which would bring Ford back for two more movies. Lucasfilm of course quickly shot that down stating, "That's purely a rumor. Idle chatter among Internet fans."
