Marley and Me - Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston
Synopsis: Marley is a yellow lab adopted by John Grogan (Owen Wilson), a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer, and his wife (Jennifer Aniston). Their idea was to give them a taste of parenthood, but the dog proved to be a hyperactive handful. He wreaks havoc, gets kicked out of obedience school and gets even worse when the children begin to arrive, yet becomes an indispensable part of the family.Release Date: December 25, 2008
Genre: Comedy
Directed by: David Frankel
Distributor: Fox 2000 Pictures
Starring: Owen Wilson, Jennifer Aniston, Alan Arkin, Eric Dane
Synopsis: Madonna's directorial debut, Filth and Wisdom, is a hilariously sexy tale of three roommates who must delve into mischievous and naughty behavior in pursuit of bigger and brighter futures. A Ukrainian immigrant, A.K. (Eugene Hutz), finances his dreams of 'trans-continental superstardom' with his band, Gogol Bordello, by turning tricks as a role-playing cross dresser. As A.K. literally whips the privileged of London into shape, he also secretly pines for the object of his affection, Holly (Holly Weston), an aspiring ballerina looking for her big break while moonlighting as a slippery stripper. Meanwhile, Juliette (Vicky Mclure) steals medicine from her pharmaceutical job in hopes of quenching her dreams of helping Africa's youth. Filth and Wisdom is every bit as erotic and playful as it is poignant and touching, revealing the universal struggles we all face in our pursuits of happiness.Genres: Art/Foreign and Comedy

James Bond: Quantum of Solace
Quantum of Solace is the 22nd James Bond film by EON Productions, due for release in the United Kingdom on 31 October 2008 and in North America on 14 November. The sequel to the 2006 film Casino Royale, it is directed by Marc Forster, and features Daniel Craig's second performance as James Bond. In the film, Bond battles Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a member of the Quantum organisation posing as an environmentalist, who intends to stage a coup d'état in Bolivia to take control of its water supply. Bond seeks revenge for the death of Vesper Lynd, and is assisted by Camille (Olga Kurylenko), who also wants to kill Greene.Producer Michael G. Wilson created the film's plot while Casino Royale was shooting. Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, Paul Haggis and Joshua Zetumer contributed to the script. The title was chosen from an unrelated 1960 short story in Ian Fleming's For Your Eyes Only. Location filming took place in Panama, Chile, Italy and Austria, while the sets were built at Pinewood Studios. Forster aimed to make the film more modern yet classic: antique planes were used for a dogfight sequence, while Dennis Gassner's set designs are reminiscent of Ken Adam's work on several early Bond films, yet Forster rejected a grotesque appearance for Greene to comment on the hidden nature of the film's corporate villains.

My Only U - Toni Gonzaga and Vhong Navarro
Star Cinema has definitely found another gem via My Only Ü as Box Office Movie Director Cathy Garcia-Molina explained its simple but heart warming plot in its recent press conference. “Tungkol po ito sa isang taong nagmamahal, at nagkataong yung taong mahal niya ay mamamatay na. Si Vhong (Navarro) ang may unrequited love kay Toni (Gonzaga) who’s dying. He thought so. Ang question lang talaga, kung ang taong mahal mo ay mamamatay na, ano’ng gagawin mo in the last days of her life?” The film’s music video (You Can’t Hurry Love) alone plus its publicity posters showing Toni Gonzaga and Vhong Navarro hanging on a clothesline have already captured the interest of many viewers. How did they come up with that idea anyway? “Yung poster, it’s actually a literal translation of putting oneself on the line for the other. Pinisikal masyado pero yun po yun,” Direk Cathy addsStarring: Toni Gonzaga, Vhong Navarro, Dennis Padilla, Janus Del Prado, Arlene Muhlach, KitKat, Empoy Marquez, and Benjie Paras

Synopsis: Joaquin (Polo Ravales) an unassuming fisherman, is forced to confront his homosexuality when his sex-starved wife Cynthia (Althea Vega) returns from her overseas job eager to get pregnant. His young and impulsive lover, Waldo (Joseph Bitangcol), flees to Manila in disgust. After a month of hesitation, Joaquin leaves his wife to follow Waldo. His search takes him on a seamy yet colorful trip through Manila’s gay underbelly. He discovers Waldo’s dangerous flirtation with Rufo (Emilio Garcia), a bisexual rogue cop who holds the clue to Waldo’s disappearance. Rufo lures Joaquin into his home and introduces him to his submissive wife, Beng (Jean Garcia). A sadist who beats up Beng regularly, Rufo turns Joaquin into a prisoner and sex slave — like he did to Waldo. When Joaquin is finally reunited with Waldo, he discovers that Rufo is about to sell them like fish to an international sex trafficking ring, along with his personal harem of male and female captives. With Beng’s help, the two lovers plot their escape.Starring: Polo Ravales, Joseph Bitangcol, Jean Garcia, Emilio Garcia. Introducing in the movie are newbies Althea Vega and Marco Morales.
