		<description><![CDATA[Alex Proyas, a favorite here among us for his excellent Dark City, is talking about his latest project &#8220;The Tripods&#8221; based on the novels of John Christopher. The Tripods was also made into a British BBC series back in the 80&#8217;s but was canceled before they made it to the conclusion.
Lets turn to our good friend wikipedia for enlightenment on what these Tripods exactly are and how they will wreck havoc on mankind.
The story of The Tripods is post-apocalyptic. Humanity has been conquered and enslaved by &#8220;the tripods&#8221;, unseen alien entities who travel about in gigantic three-legged walking machines (the unsophisticated humans believe the walking machines themselves to be their living overlords). Human society is largely pastoral, with few habitations larger than villages, and what little industry exists is conducted under the watchful presence of the tripods. Lifestyle is reminiscent of the Middle Ages, but artifacts from previous ages are still used, giving individuals and homes a rather anachronistic appearance.
Humans [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now this was certainly nice to see. Not that a Nicolas Cage movie had landed in first place at the box office, but that an Alex Proyas film has landed at first place. As an unabashed fan of Proyas&#8217; work, I&#8217;m happy to see the guy get this kind of success. It can only mean more movies from the director, and if all goes well &#8230; a &#8220;Dark City&#8221; sequel, perhaps?
Here&#8217;s the Top 10 at the U.S. Box Office over the weekend (via):
1 	&#8212;&#8211;Knowing 	&#8212;&#8211;	$24,814,000
2 	&#8212;&#8211;I Love You, Man &#8212;&#8211;$18,005,000
3 	&#8212;&#8211;Duplicity 	&#8212;&#8211;$14,402,000
4 	&#8212;&#8211;Race to Witch Mountain 	&#8212;&#8211;$13,004,000
5 	&#8212;&#8211;Watchmen 	&#8212;&#8211;$6,725,000

		<description><![CDATA[You don’t get more hit-and-miss than Nicolas Cage. The prolific actor seems to be in three or four movies a year, and it’s usually a good year if one of his films turns out to be a moderate hit. Nicolas Cage movies without the words “National” or “Treasure” in the title just don’t seem to do very well at the box office nowadays. Cage’s latest, the Alex Proyas-directed “Knowing” doesn’t seem to have the makings of a big hit, and early indicators (including a general lack of buzz in the fanboy community) are that it will turn out like Cage’s last sci-fi themed effort, the Philip K. Dick inspired “Next”. I kind of enjoyed “Next” myself, but then again, I might have been the only one.
In “Knowing”, Cage plays John Koestler, a widowed MIT professor still pining for his wife who died in a fire recently. Koestler has a son, Caleb (Chandler Canterbury), a curious boy with a slight hearing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More images from Alex Proyas&#8217; upcoming sci-fi thriller &#8220;Knowing&#8221; have appeared online. They feature Nicolas Cage and Rose Byrne&#8217;s characters trying to stop impending doom, including possibly the end of the world. Obviously the end of the world would really suck, so let&#8217;s hope the tick-heavy Cage and the oh-so-pretty Rose Byrne manages to save us.
A teacher (Nicolas Cage) opens a time capsule that has been dug up at his son’s elementary school; in it are some chilling predictions — some that have already occurred and others that are about to — that lead him to believe his family plays a role in the events that are about to unfold. With the help of the granddaughter (Rose Byrne) of the woman who wrote the predictions, the teacher tries to avert impending disasters.
Starring Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne, Chandler Canterbury, Ben Mendelsohn, Adrienne Pickering, Tamara Donnellan, and directed by Alex Proyas (&#8221;Dark City&#8221;). Get to know the end of the world March [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit, I wasn&#8217;t all that captivated by the previous &#8220;Knowing&#8221; trailer, despite Alex Proyas&#8217; name attached as director, and the lovely Rose Byrne playing a love interest. Nicolas Cage &#8212; eh. But this latest trailer for &#8220;Knowing&#8221; has my interest sufficiently piqued, especially since it introduces a new aspect of the storyline, featuring mysterious figures called &#8220;whisper people&#8221; that may or may not have something to do with the disasters that were predicted by a little girl in elementary school many years ago, and are now coming true. 
The plot:
Academy Award Winner Nicolas Cage (National Treasure: Book of Secrets, Leaving Las Vegas) stars in KNOWING, a gripping action-thriller of global proportions about a professor who stumbles on terrifying predictions about the future—and sets out to prevent them from coming true. In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The boys over at Aint-it-Cool-News.com has premiered a new spanking teaser poster for Alex Proyas&#8217; upcoming sci-fi thriller &#8220;Knowing&#8221;. Yes, while the poster probably has too much of a &#8220;War of the Worlds&#8221; vibe about it, it&#8217;s still a pretty cool looking teaser poster. The film stars Nicolas Cage (which you might have guessed by his huge name on top of the marquee) and Rose Byrne as two people who must stop an impending disaster that has been foretold decades in advance.
If you haven&#8217;t seen it yet, a teaser trailer for &#8220;Knowing&#8221; premiered a while back here.

		<description><![CDATA[My enthusiasm for Alex Proyas&#8217; &#8220;Knowing&#8221; didn&#8217;t exactly leap up there after seeing this first trailer for his upcoming movie &#8220;Knowing&#8221;, starring Nicolas Cage as a teacher who discovers that predictions made 50 years ago are coming true; worst, the predictions eventually run out, then what happens? The trailer is good, the kind of slick stuff Hollywood does well, and it certainly doesn&#8217;t showcase the brilliance that Alex Proyas showcased in &#8220;The Crow&#8221; and &#8220;Dark City&#8221;. Having said that, I&#8217;m still holding out hope that he&#8217;ll one day return to such greatness, and maybe &#8220;Knowing&#8221; is a step in the right direction. I don&#8217;t see it in the trailer, alas, but who knows, Cage never does good trailers, so that may be it&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s the end of the world in Alex Proyas&#8217; latest, &#8220;Knowing&#8221;, and only Nicolas Cage and his ability to run really fast through crowds of confused people can save us all! And oh yeah, along the way he drags Rose Byrne to help out with all the legwork. Or at least, that&#8217;s what it seems like in these first images from Proyas&#8217; disaster movie &#8220;Knowing&#8221;, posted over at USA Today as part of their apocalyptic movie article.
USA Today has three apocalyptic movie coming out in 2008-2009 alone: M. Night Shyamalan&#8217;s &#8220;The Happening&#8221;, John Hillcoat&#8217;s &#8220;The Road&#8221;, and Proyas&#8217; &#8220;Knowing&#8221;. 
In Knowing, Cage discovers a letter buried in a time capsule outside a school. It doesn&#8217;t mean anything to him until he sees the digits 911, which sets him on a course to prevent further catastrophes.
Cage acknowledges that 9/11 remains a fresh wound for American moviegoers, and films that touch on the terrorist attacks have suffered their own curse. &#8220;I know [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit: Alex Proyas&#8217; movie career hasn&#8217;t exactly gone as I had expected. He&#8217;s done some good sci-fi movies in the past (and &#8220;The Crow&#8221; was pretty good, too), like &#8220;Dark City&#8221; and &#8220;I, Robot&#8221;, but he&#8217;s never really broken through since &#8220;Dark City&#8221;. I mean, &#8220;I, Robot&#8221; was good entertaining fun, but it wasn&#8217;t GREAT, not in the sense that &#8220;Dark City&#8221; was GREAT. Hopefully his latest, &#8220;Knowing&#8221;, will be much better. Besides a first look at the teaser poster (to your left, which unfortunately is as big as it comes at the moment), there&#8217;s a full synopsis for the movie below.
This brought to you buy the boys over at Quiet Earth:

		<description><![CDATA[Alex Proyas&#8217; &#8220;Knowing&#8221; is something better everytime I hear about it. Then again, we are talking about Alex Proyas here, and since &#8220;Dark City&#8221;, I&#8217;ve been a fan of this guy and pretty much everything he&#8217;s done. Okay, so maybe I didn&#8217;t quite &#8220;get&#8221; the garage band indie movie &#8220;Garage Days&#8221;, but everything else has been pretty darn good. Proyas&#8217; latest is &#8220;Knowing&#8221;, and besides star Nicolas Cage, Rose Byrne has now signed on to play the female lead.
More:
Byrne will play the daughter of a woman who buried a 1962 time capsule bearing the dates of the assassinations of historical figures, the hotel fire death of the wife of a professor (Cage) and an imminent world apocalypse. After the professor discovers its contents and alerts her, the initially skeptical Byrne begins remembering strange incidents from her childhood. Alex Proyas (&#8221;I, Robot&#8221;) will direct.
Kinda sounds like something M. Night Shyalaman would do. In fact, it kinda sounds familiar to Shyamalan&#8217;s upcoming [...]]]></description>
