Happy New Year from HeyUGuys! : HeyUGuys–UK Movie / Film Blog

It’s been a great year at HeyUGuys towers and we’re immensely grateful to each and every one of you who have found us in 2010.

There’s much to look forward to in 2011 with new films from Darren Aronofsky, Terrence Malick, The Coens, Spielberg and Peter Jackson along with Green Hornets and Lanterns leading the superhero onslaught which will take in Thor, Captain America and the new X-Men film, First Class.

While it’s the end for Potter fans with the second part of the Deathly Hallows elsewhere it seems impossible to stem the flood of sequels with Mission: Impossible, Pirates of the Caribbean, Scream, Spy Kids all getting a fourth crack of the whip (not perhaps the most useful turn of phrase when connected with fourth films in the series)…

As well as our much anticipated roadtrip to Area 51 with Messrs Pegg, Frost and Paul there’s Submarine from Richard Ayoade and Source Code from Duncan Jones which are high on my list for 2011. JJ Abrams’ Super 8, Cary Fukunaga’s Jane Eyre and Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch are intriguing prospects all and there are sure to be some surprises along the way.

Make sure you start off the year with a trip to see Tom Hooper’s The King’s Speech, and I hope you all have a most excellent New Year.

Happy New Year!

Adam Lowes– 2010 – A Year in Highlights : HeyUGuys–UK Movie / Film Blog

I started writing for the site around August time, and it’s been an incredible few months. Amongst the many, many highlights has been interviewing one of my favourite actors of all time (the greatVincent Cassel) during the Black Swan premiere at this year’s London Film Festival. To be stood face-to-face with such a tremendous and commanding talent was a huge thrill.

I’ve also had the opportunity to talk to two directors whose films have really resonated with me during different periods in my life. In September I attended the press junket for 3D kids feature The Hole and interviewed directorJoe Dante. It was a surreal and wonderful feeling to be sat talking to the guy whose films (especially the likes of Explorers, Innerspace and The‘Burbs) were virtually on a continuous loop in the family VHS player, 20 or so years back. Dante’s love of fantasy and trash cinema really shone through in the short period I had with him, and I think he could sense he was in the presence of a like-minded fan of those films he was referencing. When I presented him with an old, dog-earedGremlinsMaking-of magazine to autograph, he was more than happy to sign it. Geek nirvana.

Attending the premiere for Jackass 3D at the BFI Imax, I found myself positioned next to the actual camera crew from the film and TV series, who were shooting additional material for the Film’s DVD  release. Executive ProducerSpike Jonzewas one of the first up the red carpet, and upon finishing the promotional rounds (which was clearly something he was uncomfortable with) in a down-to-earth and very un-Hollywood move, he decided to hang out and chat with the Jackass crew while the rest of the stars appeared. This afforded me to chance to have a little off-camera chat with him myself in the interim– an amazing occasion which caused more than a few high-fives on the way home afterwards with my friend Luke, who was filming the event.

I’m truly grateful for having had the chance to meet and chat to figures from the industry who mean so much to me on a personal level, and I’m really excited as to what next year will hold. If the latter part of 2010 is anything to go by, there will be many more Jim’ll Fix It-type scenarios tocome.
