PLOT:
Owen Wilson and Jason Sudeikis will play two guys who get a week of freedom from the normal obligations of marriage and try turn their "hall pass" into a week of decadence.

Next, from Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures' "Gnomeo and Juliet" we have several new posters up.

Kelly Asbury ("Shrek 2," "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron") directs from the writing by Mark Burton, Kevin Cecil, Andy Riley, John R. Smith and Rob Sprackling, based on the play by William Shakespeare "Romeo and Juliet."
See the posters here.
This one opens on February 11th.
PLOT:
The greatest love story ever told, starring...garden gnomes? In "Gnomeo & Juliet," Shakespeare's revered tale gets a comical, off-the-wall makeover. Directed by Kelly Asbury (co-director of "Shrek 2") and showcasing both classic and original songs by Elton John, the film features the voices of James McAvoy and Emily Blunt as Gnomeo and Juliet, who have as many obstacles to overcome as their quasi namesakes when they are caught up in a feud between neighbors. But with plastic pink flamingos and thrilling lawnmower races in the mix, can this young couple find a happy ending?
Finally, from Summit Entertainment's "Drive Angry" which was shot in 3D, there's a second poster. Film looks cheesy to say the least and adds another notch to Nicolas Cage's bad credit list of late. Still, it has a "Grindhouse" feel to it and could appeal to a select, less finicky audience. Also in the cast are Amber Heard, William Fichtner and Billy Burke.
Patrick Lusier ("My Bloody Valentine") directs the actioner which unspools on Febraury 25th.
