Brett Ratner Wants To Make A ‘Guitar Hero’ Movie

Potential “God of War” movie maker Brett Ratner would really like to make a “Guitar Hero” movie.

Ratner spoke to my MTV News colleague Jocelyn Vena yesterday for an interview primarily about his “Best Director” Video Music Awards nomination for his work on Miley Cyrus‘ “7 Things” music video.

Since Ratner has done a lot with “Guitar Hero” lately — he had Miley pretending to smash “Guitar Hero” instruments on the set of “7 Things,” had “GH” in his Mariah Carey video and got it on American Idol — we needed to ask him what else he has in store for the game.

World of Warcraft - Wrath of the Lich King - WOW Fact Sheet

World of Warcraft - Wrath of the Lich King - Fact Sheet

With the opening of the Dark Portal, and the renewed war to stop the Burning Crusade’s destruction of worlds, the heroes of Azeroth have given little thought to the frozen wastes of Northrend - and the terrible, ancient powers that wait there. 

Yet the brooding evils of the fallen Nerubian empire and their malevolent sovereign have not forgotten Azeroth…

The former death knight and now Lich King Arthas has set in motion events that could lead to the extinction of all life in Azeroth, as his undead armies and the necromantic power of the plague threaten to sweep across the land. 

Only the mightiest heroes can survive the frozen northlands with any hope of disrupting the plans of Arthas -- and perhaps even challenge the Lich King himself and end his reign of terror for all time.

Features:

• New character class: the necromantic Death Knight
• New continent: Northrend, the icy domain of the Lich King
• New level cap of 80, including mighty new powers and talents
• Epic siege warfare and destructible buildings
• New profession: Inscription
• New character-customization options, new dungeons, and much, much more…

Black Mirror 2 - PC video game trailer

Back to the Scary Castle of Black Mirror we go. dtp entertainment and Cranberry Production are proud to release the GC 2008 trailer movie of Black Mirror 2. The English castle is once more setting of a thrilling Point & Click Adventure.

Twelve years after the events of Black Mirror: The coast village of Biddeford/Maine is gleaming in the colours of Indian Summer. Here works the main character of Black Mirror 2, Darren, as a temp in a photo studio. He, a withdrawn young lad in his 20ies, is studying physics. If photography hadn’t been his only passion, he would have left his poorly paid job and his sleazy boss Fuller ages ago.



One day, a stunning English girl named Angelina steps into the shop to have her picture taken. Darren is instantly captivated by her beauty – he has never felt like this. But suddenly, Fuller is bursting in. He insists on serving the pretty customer himself while Darren is sent out to town. When he comes back, it’s only by chance that he can fix an appointment with Angelina for a photo shooting.

Shortly after Angelina has left the shop, Darren notices a man following her secretly. Soon, something horrible is happening. In Darren’s opinion, Fuller has to do with it and he wants him to pay for it.

During the next weeks, the student is plagued by nightmares. He starts a journey leading him to Willow Creek in England. This is the village of Black Mirror Castle where the tragedy of part one took place.



Achim Heidelauf, Senior Producer at dtp entertainment promises: “The story is much more connected with the first game than one would expect.” Black Mirror 2 picks up the scary atmosphere of its award-winning predecessor.

Black Mirror 2 will be published in 2009.
