Life isn't going smoothly for Leo Jackson. He still lives at home, he just broke up with his girlfriend and he's had so many complaints about his sloppy work habits that his own mother is threatening to fire him. But Leo isn't one to let a few bad breaks ruins his day — as long as he's got plenty of weed to take his mind off his troubles. But when the wacked-out courier accidentally delivers a box containing 10 kilos of high quality cocaine to the wrong apartment, it sets in motion a hilarious and harrowing chain of events that could cost him his life.

When gifted singer-songwriter Charlotte Banksasks new kid in town Will Burton to manage her fledgling rock band, she appears to have just one goal in mind: go head-to-head against her egotistical musician ex-boyfriend at the biggest event of the year, a battle of the bands. Against all odds, their band develops a sound all its own with a real shot at success in the contest. When disaster strikes, it's time for the band to make a choice: Do they admit defeat, or face the music and stand up for what they believe in?

Can't speak for the rest of the Summit releases, but I CAN tell you that Nic Cage worked HARD to make me and my daughter look good in our upcoming flick, "Knowing" (don't blink and you might see us as looters on the steps of a downtown "Boston" government building or running past the driver's side window of Cage's pickup truck as he slowly drives down a street through a riot…unless our scenes were cut). Okay, maybe _we_ — as extras, hired here in Melbourne — were helping make him look good. (And since no one here knows what I look like, it might be hard to spot me and my kid — but watching, and helping, the film get made was fun — and after seeing the trailers, it certainly looks like it will be a fun action flick.

What is up with Nic Cage's career? Didn't he make something called "Next" that was really similar to that a couple of years ago?

Aimee: Don't think of it as a "Nic Cage" movie — think of it as a Dtshindler movie. Go see "Knowing" and support your not-so-local movie extra (even though a LOT of time was spent in the old, hurry-up-and-wait Armed services game, I think I'd enjoy working as an extra on another film — and will probably do so if I get the chance again.

Until then, until I become famous as a world renown movie extra, my autographs can be had at a bargain: $50 each (see Brad for details)
(And yes, that's a joke…so don't everyone deluge poor Brad for autographs).

I do want to see "Push", but Camilla Belle in any mainstream movie pretty much screams "crap movie" ("10,000 B.C., need I say more?). I'm an Astro Boy fan, so definitely up for that one. I'm also becoming an unapologetic "Twilight" fan, so "New Moon" is a must. Although I love me some Alex Proyas (pre "I,Robot" days), and "I Know What You Did Last Summer, House Bunny", er, "Sorority Row" has some nice eye candy, I can't really se me watching any other films here.

Hey ATL ROLLER: Not so much haircut as hairpiece…although I think he's been using the same one (or ones) for the last few films, since they stay on pretty well.

It looks like Summit is trying succesfully enough to become a major production company. Cheers to them.
