So what’s out there this week? Well today we’ll take a look at the films scheduled to be released which include The Grudge 2 (cause the first one didn’t suck enough), Robin Williams in the farce and very funny, Man of the Year, and a hot sweaty wrestler playing the hero in The Marine.

Here’s what’s scheduled to hit theaters this week. Want to know more? Just click on the title for film info including a full cast list. Want a closer look? Just click on the poster to watch the trailer.
While in Tokyo, Abrey Davis (Amber Tamblyn) runs into the same freaky curse as her sister, Karen Davis (Sarah Michelle Gellar), did in the first Grudge. You know the curse, the one that possesses a person, fills them full of rage and makes them kill everybody in their path; yah, that curse. Yes, one Grudge wasn’t enough, now we are back for another serving. Rumor has it that Grudge 2 is a little creepier and pays off on all the scary moments that Grudge promised to do, but failed on all attempts. Sarah Michelle Gellar gives us a return cameo and an addition of all new characters to die; check back on Friday to see if Grudge 2 pays off and will be a great scary movie just in time for Halloween.
Let’s start with the list of talent, Robin Williams, Christopher Walken, Laura Linney, Lewis Black and Jeff Goldblum, with actors like that, what else needs to be said? There is more, plenty more; a political talk show host, Tom Dobbs (Robin Williams) decides to run for president, as a joke, and he wins. Tom, never expecting to win and completely playing from the cuff, went to the far end of that counter with comedy and politics and makes sense, and he makes us laugh at the same time. (anybody for electronic voting?) Man of the Year should prove to be the funniest move of the year. Check back on Friday and see if my guess is right.
WWE wrestler, John Cena, comes to the big screen as The Marine. The trailer looks very similar to an upscale, and English speaking, Jean-Claude Van Damme movie (if that is possible); the type of film where the wife gets kidnapped and the guy has to go all bad ass on people. The Marine is directed by John Bonito and produced by WWE Films’ Joel Simon with Kathryn Sommer Parry and Jonathan Winfrey; and executive producer, Vince McMahon, Chairman, World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc, with Matt Carroll. (and you care) This film promises to have plenty of action and heroic moments, while Mr. Hot Stuff saves the day and his wife. Look out Dwayne Johnson, a new oiled muscle machine is on the set, you might have a little competition. Check back on Friday and see if John pays off as the new ass kicker.
