News Bits: John Carter, After Earth, Transformers 4, The Sound of My Voice, Simpsons, Prometheus and More!

Welcome back for another edition of News Bits.  What is it you ask?  The film world can get quite overwhelming at times in the news that releases.  Unfortunately some of this news is just too small to warrant a full article. Rather than deprive you of the news, we've created this section.  This week in news bits we’ve got trailers, first looks, rumors, and lots more!

* With the latest installment of Transformers recently confirmed, many have wondered what all it would entail. According to Josh Duhamel (who has appeared in all three films) over at E! Online, he doesn't think fans should expect ANY of the actors to make a return.  Just rumor for now, but check out his quote:

I don’t think anybody’s doing it. I know Shia [LaBeouf]‘s not doing it. I don’t think Tyrese or Rosie [Huntington-Whiteley] or anybody else is doing it… Whenever these movies make that much money they’re going to make as many as they can. [But] I haven’t heard anything about it.

Cogan's Trade

* The Weinstein Company has announced a release date for Cogan's Trade (first official image above) and also changed up the dates on two of their other films.  Cogan's Trade is set for September 21, 2012, while Butter moves to October 5th, and Scary Movie 5 (sadly it's still happening) is now January 11, 2013. 

The Lizard

* Check out this high-res bust of The Lizard from the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man movie.  It was on display at the New York Toy Fair and made by Diamond Selects.

* The Sound of My Voice is being incredibly secretive.  It centers around a cult and it's leader (played by Brit Marling) as two documentary filmmakers set out to expose her as a fraud.  Yet as they unravel the mystery...they beging to wonder.  That's about all the info we have and that's all the studios want us to have.  Yet they were kind enough to release the first chapter (about 12 minutes) of the movie for you guys to enjoy. 

Snow White and the Huntsman banner

* Check out this new image from Snow White and the Huntsman...crazy mystery creature. 

* Two die-hard Simpsons fans earned a Guinness World Record for watching an 86 hour and 37 minute marathon of the show.

Rise of the Guardians

* The first poster for Dreamworks' Animation's Rise of the Guardians...is a photoshop mess.  Seriously looks like an old PS2 game cover. 

Jabba the Hutt birthday cake

* This Jabba the Hutt birthday cake was too awesome not to share.

* The Matt Damon movie We Bought a Zoo is coming to Blu-Ray and DVD April 3rd.

* Speaking of blu-ray releases, The Adventures of Tintin will land on March 13th.

After Earth

* Jaden Smith shows off his costume from the After Earth set.

* As part of the promotion for the Lady and the Tramp blu-ray release, Disney recreated the famous dog and spaghetti scene using real dogs. 

* Three news clips from John Carter have been released by Disney.  One of them is above.  Checkout our YouTube page for the others!
