Genre: Comedy, Romance, Drama Duration: 100 min MPAA: Rated PG for sensuality and language. Company: Universal Pictures
B Release Date: 8 January 2010 (USA) Tag Line: Anna planned to propose to her boyfriend on February 29th. This is not her boyfriend. Brief Summary:
Anna (Amy Adams) - busy, dedicated, talented, goal oriented with one track mind on life matters. Has "what she wants and not what she needs".
Jeremy (Adam Scott) - accomplished cardiologist with no need to be concerned. Has what he wants and not sure what he needs. Loves himself and thinks everyone else does, too.
Declan (Matthew Goode) - very much a Hugh Jackman "coulda-been", content with what he has and thinks he needs nothing, Luck 'o the Irish did nothing for him but he doesn't believe in luck anyway.
As Anna herself put it, she has "what she wants but not what she needs". Since becoming an accomplished "Stager", decorating homes to display in hopes of selling, she happily puts herself on display, knowing exactly what it takes. We see her first known personal disappointment when she expects her boyfriend, Jeremy, to propose. He is so comfortable with her company, earrings are the obvious gift to surprise his girlfriend of 4 years, and not an engagement ring. She is further disappointed when he immediately has to leave the country temporarily. Being the woman she is, she spends no time with self pity but decides it's time to go to Dublin and propose to him as Leap Year permits. (by Adam Dwyne - abcdMOVIE)

B Release Date: 8 January 2010 (USA) Tag Line: In 2019, The Most Precious Natural Resource... Is Us Brief Summary:
All's fine and dandy, but without a steady stream of juicy humans, the vampires themselves face extinction from a badly managed food supply chain, and a mutation stemmed from malnutrition which will turn them into mindless bat-monsters to show off what the special effects and makeup crew can do for a film like this.
So the vampires commission Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawke) to come up with artificial plasma substitutes that can ensure continued vampire lifestyles (of buzzing nightlife) except that Edward has that soft spot for humankind given that he was turned into a vampire much against his wishes. His desire to help humans comes for real when he chances upon a rare group of escaping human refugees, with whom he bands together in a search for a cure to vampirism.
In a world 10 years into the future, vampires make up the vast majority of the population with only 5% of the human race remaining.This presents particular challenges as the vampires' food supply - human blood - is dwindling and rationing is now the norm. Dr. Edward Dalton, a vampire and hematologist who works for a pharmaceutical firm, has been working on finding an artificial blood supply that will meet the vampire society's needs. (by Adam Dwyne - abcdMOVIE)

Company: Alcon Entertainment
B Release Date: 15 January 2010 (USA) Tag Line: Some will kill to have it. He will kill to protect it Brief Summary:
THE BOOK OF ELI is set 30 years in the future where a major war has left few people behind and a lot of environmental changes. The main character is Eli (Denzel Washington), who is on a mission of hope and is protecting a special book that is said to offer its owner large amounts of power to guide, lead, control, and manipulate with it.
Eli and Solara are rowing across the shallow waters of the Pacific Ocean to Alcatraz Island. On reaching the island, Eli tells the guards that he has an intact King James Bible. Back at Carnegie's office in his town, an engineer is carefully trying to pick the lock on the book Carnegie wrested from Eli. Eli says his bible is 'beat up, but will do the job.'
Back at Carnegie's office, the engineer finally manages to trigger the lock and open the book taken from Eli. Eli has Lombardi's people bring Lombardi large stacks of paper and begins to recite the Bible from memory, having memorized it over thirty years of re-reading. Carnegie has Claudia brought to his office to read the Braille bible. Claudia knows that Solara hasn't returned and blames Carnegie.
As Eli's prayer continues, we see the Alcatraz printing press making a freshly prepared hardcover print copy of the completed King James Bible, and we see Solara kneeling over Eli's grave, showing he has finally died from his injuries. We see Solara stepping out of the gates of the Alcatraz compound as Eli's voiceover prayer thanks God for Solara's friendship, and for God to watch over her as He has watched over Eli himself. We see Solara sheathe Eli's machete over her shoulder, and plug the earphones to his iPod into her ears.(by Adam Dwyne - abcdMOVIE)

Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) is the executive editor-in-chief of a book publishing company, Colden Books, who forces her assistant Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds) to marry her in order to avoid being deported to Canada. He grudgingly accepts, under the condition that he is promoted to the position of editor.
When the government investigates, the two are forced to spend the weekend with his parents in Alaska in order to sell the lie. The family suggest they could marry the same weekend, and they reluctantly accept. They start to fall genuinely in love as they spend more and more time together. Because of this, during the wedding ceremony, Margaret decides she cannot do this to Andrew and confesses the business arrangement in front of everyone--including the immigration officer handling their case. She is then told that she has 24 hours to get back to Canada, and thus goes back to New York to pack her things. Upon doing so, however, Andrew shows up at the office and confesses his love for her in front of the entire office staff, proposing marriage all over again.
High-powered book editor Margaret faces deportation to her native Canada, the quick-thinking exec declares that she's actually engaged to her unsuspecting put-upon assistant Andrew, who she's tormented for years. He agrees to participate in the charade, but with a few conditions of his own. The unlikely couple heads to Alaska to meet his quirky family and the always-in-control city girl finds herself in one comedic fish-out-of-water situation after another. With an impromptu wedding in the works and an immigration official on their tails, Margaret and Andrew reluctantly vow to stick to the plan despite the precarious consequences.
