“Ong Bak 3″ has found a U.S. distributor, and no big suprise, its Magnet Releasing who is looking to release the the Asian-action flick in January 2011. Directed by Tony Jaa, the third installment of the”Ong Bak” series will also be its final product. Audiences may remember the cliffhanger ending of “Ong Bak 2” which was released in the U.S. late last year where the series met quite a supernatural plotline.

A trailer for the country music drama “Country Strong” has been released, and the only surprising part of the whole thing is how much more country you thought it would be. Gwyneth Paltrow shows off an accent almost as obnoxious and exaggerated as Kyra Sedgwick’s accent in “The Closer,” if you can believe it. There was quite a bit of ambiguity surrounding the film based on the few photos that have been released, but we hope you didn’t get your hopes up.

Another trailer for the sci-fi/action/thriller/another-vampire-movie-in-3D flick “Priest” has hit the web, and you don’t even have to view it yourself to have already seen it. Although this trailer doesn’t look as unfortunate as Paul Bettany’s other sci-fi thriller “Legion,” the trailer for “Priest” hands you the same conventions as any other action film.

It’s a CGI lover’s wet dream that follows a priest (Bettany) who must rescue his niece after she’s kidnapped by vampires.
