It’s really starting to look like the rampaging Hollywood parade of “hip” vampire films is never going to end, and now the queen of the “hip” film comedy, Amy Heckerling is throwing her trendy, stylish hat in the ring with Vamps. The movie’s plot reads like Sex and the City with fangs and (more) bloodsucking, and it seems now that actress Sigourney Weaver will be stepping in to lend her credibility and bankability to the Alicia Silverstone-starring comedy.

Weaver definitely has the acting chops necessary to bring something emotional and wise to the proceedings. She will reportedly be portraying Ciccerus, the mother of two hobnobbing vampire socialites, one of whom will be played by Silverstone. The story goes that the two young vamps will fall in love and be faced with the familiar choice between their human lovers and their vampire immortality. Sound like all the other undead melodramas? Don’t worry, it’s a comedy, and supernatural laughs are something Weaver knows well from her classic performances in both Ghostbusters films (and next year’s third installment as well.)

Weaver is something of a catch in Hollywood right now, coming hot off the multi-billion dollar heels of Avatar, but let’s not forget that Vamps is designed as a comeback vehicle for Silverstone, who hasn’t had a really lucrative or worthwhile role in over a decade. Then again, this is Heckerling, who originally shot Silverstone to fame in 1995′s Clueless, so if anyone can make her a star again, I guess it would be her.

What do you think of a rich vampire comedy? Can Silverstone ever be a star again? Will Weaver’s involvement be enough to carry the film? Sink your teeth into our comments section and give us your answers.

New Line and Warner Bros are prepping up the trendy ladies of New York City for yet another escapade in Sex and the City 2. For those of you women who absolutely adored watching Carrie and friends going on their journeys through the bustling town, no need to worry since Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis are all signed on to take part in the next chapter on the big screen.

Michael Patrick King (Sex and the City: The Movie) will be re-teaming with the four ladies in writing and directing the sequel. The film is set for the release date of May 28, 2010, which is quite literally two years and two days later than the original release date for the first one (May 30th, 2008). The plot for the upcoming flick has not been released yet but filming will commence this summer.

Well, what can I say, if you are a Sex and the City fan, you will love the movie!

Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha are back and bigger than ever and do I mean bigger. The laughs, the outfits, the stories, all bigger than real life in that “Sex and the City” way.

This movie picks up right where an episode would have. What a great movie with lots of laugh out loud moments. The critics and the audience were laughing all the way through this one.

We pick up with Carrie and Big, Miranda and Steve, Charlotte and her little adopted daughter, and of coarse Smith and Samantha in L.A.

Carrie and Big take steps to plan the wedding that Carrie has wanted for a long long time. Miranda and Steve go through some pretty rough times, and Smith and Samantha realize things may not be what they are cracked up to be. Lets not forget about Charlotte and her gorgeous adopted daughter and hairy hubby Harry.

I would like to point out that the movie runs long. This should not stop you from seeing it but it may be a “girls” night out type of flick. I would hesitate to say this will make a ton of cash as it may only hit up the cult following of the show. It may not have a large reach on the mainstream audiences. I would put it up there at number 3 or 2 on the list but not knocking off Iron Man or Indiana Jones.

Guys be warned if you are a little squirmy when it comes to seeing other “man parts”, this is rated R for a reason. Yes there are some pretty nice boobs in the film, but it is a chick flick at heart and definitely hits the nail on the head!

The wife said it best… “If you watched the show you will love it, if you are a guy you may get a few laughs out of it, if you didn’t and you get dragged along by your girl you will definitely see some boobs and possibly get lucky at the end of the night for at least trying!”

I would recommend this to the friends, but probably as a rental due to the 2.5 hour running time.
