When a terrorist bombing destroys the Kremlin, the United States government initiates a black ops “ghost protocol” and disavows the entire Impossible Mission Force. Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his team are to be blamed for the attack, but are allowed to escape as part of a plan to enable them to operate in the dark, outside of their agency. However, Hunt is warned that if any member of his team is captured during their mission, they will be charged as terrorists planning to incite global nuclear war. Ethan is then forced to work with ex-IMF agent Brandt (Jeremy Renner), who knows more about Hunt and his past than Hunt himself.

Being developed by Capcom, the core gameplay is similar to that of the Street Fighter series, incorporating elements such as Super Combos, as well as EX Attacks from Street Fighter IV. Players each choose two fighters from the Street Fighter or Tekken character lists, the latter of which can be optionally controlled using Tekken‘s 4-button system.[4] As fights go on, players build up power in a three sectioned meter at the bottom of the screen. Players can use a single section to use an EX attack, or tag with a partner during a combo, or use a full meter to perform a Super Combo. Players can also charge up special moves such as Ken‘s Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyakku and perform Tag Super Combos with their partner. As opposed to the other crossover fighting games released by Capcom, in which the player must eliminate all the opponent’s fighters to win, victory conditions are more similar to Tekken Tag Tournament, in which the first player to have one of their fighter’s health reduced to zero loses the round, the player who wins the most rounds winning the match.

Street Fighter X Tekken is set to release early 2012 for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Playstation Vita and PC!

Half a century after the Red Faction resistance and their Marauder allies freed Mars from the brutal Earth Defense Force, harmony on Mars is again threatened but this time by a lethal force shrouded in mystery.
When the massive Terraformer that supplies Mars with its Earth-like air and weather is destroyed, the atmosphere turns to chaos, super-tornados and lightning storms engulf the planet. To survive, the Colonists flee to the underground mines and build a network of habitable caves.
Five years later, Darius Mason, grandson of Martian Revolution heroes Alec Mason and Samanya, runs a lucrative business from Bastion, underground hub of Colonist activity. Mining, scavenging, mercenary work–if the job is dangerous, Darius is your man. Few sane people now venture to the ravaged surface, aside from contractors like Darius and the smugglers who run goods between the settlements.

As Colonist and Marauder settlements are torn asunder, only Darius and the Red Faction can save mankind.

A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.

Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

The Devil’s Double is a fact-based film centering on the nightmarish experiences of an Iraqi army lieutenant whose life became a living hell after he was force to become a fiday (“body double”) for the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein‘s sadistic son Uday (Dominic Cooper).  Iraqi soldier Latif Yahia (Dominic Cooper) becomes accustomed to the inner-workings of Saddam‘s family after receiving an offer he can’t refuse; Latif had to change his identity to Uday or his entire family would be killed.  Desperate to protect his family and scared of making any fatal mistakes, Latif studies Uday‘s tendencies like a shadow, following his every little move in order to become the spitting image of the so-called “Black Prince.” While some Iraqis may have been honored to be presented with such an important opportunity, Uday‘s extreme lifestyle quickly began to eat away at the very center of Latif‘s mind and soul. As war with Kuwait looms on the horizon, Latif finds himself increasingly drawn to his Uday‘s ravishing mistress Sarrab (Ludivine Sangier), a woman with many stories about Iraq’s cruelest son.

In the king’s hands, the bow would rain destruction upon mankind and annihilate the Gods. But ancient law dictates the Gods must not intervene in man’s conflict. They remain powerless to stop Hyperion…until a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill) comes forth as their only hope. Secretly chosen by Zeus, Theseus must save his people from Hyperion and his army.  Rallying a band of fellow outsiders-including visionary priestess Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and cunning slave Stavros (Stephen Dorff)-one hero will lead the uprising, or watch his homeland fall into ruin and his Gods vanish into legend.

Blockbuster filmmaker Jon Favreau directs Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford in an event film for summer 2011 that crosses the classic Western with the alien-invasion movie in a blazingly original way: Cowboys & Aliens. Joined by an arsenal of top moviemakers—Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci—he brings an all-new action thriller that will take audiences into the Old West, where a lone cowboy leads an uprising against a terror from beyond our world.

1873. Arizona Territory. A stranger (Craig) with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The only hint to his history is a mysterious shackle that encircles one wrist. What he discovers is that the people of Absolution don’t welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered to do so by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford). It’s a town that lives in fear.

But Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Screaming down with breathtaking velocity and blinding lights to abduct the helpless one by one, these monsters challenge everything the residents have ever known.

Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he’s been, he realizes he holds a secret that could give the town a fighting chance against the alien force. With the help of the elusive traveler Ella (Olivia Wilde), he pulls together a posse comprised of former opponents—townsfolk, Dolarhyde and his boys, outlaws and Apache warriors—all in danger of annihilation. United against a common enemy, they will prepare for an epic showdown for survival.

Cowboys & Aliens stars Daniel Craig (Quantum of Solace), Harrison Ford (Indiana Jones), and Olivia Wilde (TRON: Legacy); it looks like two classic movie genres will cross paths in this summer blockbuster set to blaze into theaters on July 29!
