New images from J. Edgar, Hugo, Contagion, The Descendants, Jack and Jill, and Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

J. Edgar ( )
Doesn't give much away, does it? The film will tell the life story of  Hoover, the man who's credited with making the FBI what it is today.  It will be released this November in the USA.

Because it's Friday, we bring you all the new images floating around online...
It's nearly the weekend, and new looks at exciting films haven't exactly been thin on the ground. This is due mainly to Entertainment Weekly's sneak peak issue, but here are some fresh peaks at the most anticipated upcoming releases.



Hugo (Asa Butterfield, Chloe Moretz)
This image is of the two child stars of Martin Scorsese's foray into children's literature. It's likely to fill the Harry-shaped hole in cinemas, even if it's an unconventional pairing for the director. It will be released on 2nd Dember in the UK.

The Descendants (George Clooney, Shailene Woodley)
These pictures of George Clooney in The Descendants again reveal very little, but we do know that the film pitches him as a father charged with the care of his daughters after their mother suffers a boating accident. It sounds like a Miley Cyrus movie from that description, which is never a good thing. UK release on 20th January 2012.

Contagion (Laurence Fishburne, Kate Winslet)
With a cast this large, they've had to stagger them a bit, so after we got images of Gwyneth Paltrow, Jude Law and Matt Damon this week, it's the turn of Laurence Fishburne and Kate Winslet. The film is a disease thriller from Steven Soderbergh, and the characters must deal with weaponised bird flu. Yes really.

Jack and Jill (Adam Sandler, Adam Sandler)
No. Just no. Inflicted on us 17th February 2012.

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (Rooney Mara)
They've been pulling out all the stops with this one, what with the controversial teaser trailer and character profiles released this week. It's an intelligent approach, seeing as the film's built-in audience consists of people who've seen and loved the original Swedish trilogy. The cast are stellar, the trailer was good, and it has David Fincher directing, so signs are positive. We get to see it on the 16th December.

  https://www.istudy-china.com/      Related What real benefits can I get by studying in China? Hello! I am Clara, originally from Spain, but spent a semester abroad in China on University of Nottingham Ningbo. As a student there I benefited from many things that I couldn’t have possibily learned in my home university. Studying abroad is a decision that requires courage. Even more, if it’s in a foreign country with a very different culture than yours. I think there are many things to take away from China. From culture, to future job perspectives and of course achiving a higher level of mandarin I guess that most people try to work or study in China due to job opportunities. In this sense, it is indeed a country where engineer students will get the best formation possible, along with some experience, as in many universities there are interships programs. For example, University of Nottingham has links with many important companies like Huaweii or Microsoft. Also, it has many power in bu

  https://www.istudy-china.com/    Related What are the advantages and disadvantages studying in China? Hello! My name is Clara and I am a former student of University of Nottingham Ningbo. I was an exchange student and lived in Ningbo for several months. So, I learned plenty of things. Even though, I bring with me positive memories, I also carry some downsides. China is a very complex country. It’s like going on a boat on a peacuful river and occasionaly having to dodge the obstacles in your way. Sometimes it’s just a rock and sometimes it’s a big current. Along with this metaphore, I have an interesting story that happened in Guillin. We were riding it’s famous river, going along the water in a bambu boat. When suddenly, another boat came too close to us. The driver dodge the boat but one of our chairs, fell in the water. It was very poetic to observe how the chair was submerging into the water bit by bit, and we could not do much about, as the current of the river moved us forward.
