Super Bowl XLVI: The Giants and Patriots Face Off in an Epic Rematch
Tom Brady, Eli Manning It's a rematch made in heaven. Four years after the NY Giants stunned the undefeated New England Patriots 17-14 in Super Bowl XLII, both teams have clawed their way back into the Big Game. The quarterbacks and coaches are the same: Tom Brady and Bill Belichick, making a record fifth Super Bowl trip together for the Patriots, and Eli Manning and Tom Coughlin in their second appearance for the Giants. But Super Bowl XLVI has a whole new set of subplots. "There are so many emotional levels to this game," says NBC analyst Cris Collinsworth, who will man the booth in Indianapolis on Sunday, Feb. 5 with Al Michaels. New England owner Robert Kraft's beloved wife, Myra, passed away in July after a long battle with cancer and the team has dedicated the season to her, even wearing patches on their uniforms with her initials, MHK. "She's an inspiration," says Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo. "We want to win a Super Bowl in her name." After New England eked out a 23-20 victory in the AFC Championship game - thanks to the Baltimore Ravens missing a field goal with 15 seconds left - Kraft said, "Someone was smiling; we had an angel." The Patriots are also motivated by that loss four years ago to the 12-point underdog Giants, denying them an unprecedented 19-0 season." The bitter taste of that defeat is still very much alive for the people that were part of it," Collinsworth says. "They want a chance to at least settle the score." They also want payback for a 24-20 regular-season defeat at home to the Giants on Nov. 6. The Patriots haven't lost a game since. "We've won 10; hopefully we can make it 11," says Brady. The Giants were the late bloomers of the NFC. After a loss to the Washington Redskins dropped them to 7-7, there was talk of firing Coughlin and defensive coordinator Perry Fewell. NY won its last two regular-season games, then went on a tear in the playoffs, defeating the Atlanta Falcons, the No. 1 seed and defending champion Green Bay Packers, and the No. 2 seed San Francisco 49ers, 20-17 in overtime. "Obviously, we don't want to take anything from the '07 team; that was a great team," Giants defensive end Justin Tuck says, "but this... seems like a team of destiny." Although the early line favors the Pats, Collinsworth says, "I don't see where one team should be favored over the other. If anything, maybe the Giants a little bit, just because of what they did on the road this year." Manning, the first starting quarterback to win five playoff games on the road, says NY "just kept believing that we could get hot and we could start playing our best football, and we did that at the end of the season. Hopefully we can continue that momentum." (He could become the greatest Super Bowl-winning quarterback in the Manning family, ironically on the home field of older brother Peyton, who won the 2007 Super Bowl but was sidelined this season after neck surgery.) Brady, who has already won three Super Bowls, is chasing immortality. Another win would put him "in a very small group of people we're discussing as the greatest player of all time," Collinsworth says. "His play this season really carried his team. They didn't have the great defensive team that they had in those first three Super Bowl wins, so this was very much his signature season." Whether it's Manning or Brady who leads his team to victory on Super Sunday, another major chapter in NFL history is sure to be written. Says Collinsworth, "Somebody's coming out of here a legend."

Chloe Moretz Calls 'Dark Shadows' 'Revolutionary'
On the red carpet for the People's Choice Awards, Chloe Moretz took some time off from teasing "Kick-Ass 2" news to explain why "Dark Shadows" will be the movie to see this year. "Because it has everything. It has a little bit of camp," Moretz said. "It has a little bit of danger. It has the supernatural features, vampires, witches, all the fun stuff." So far, "Dark Shadows" has done more than enough to convince fans it's a movie worth seeing. The Tim Burton-directed adaptation of the cult classic soap opera pulled off a stunning upset victory over "The Amazing Spider-Man" in the first round of MTV Movie Brawl 2012. It will certainly face some stiff competition from a man who knows a thing or two about shadows, when "Dark Shadows" goes head-to-head with "The Dark Knight Rises" in the next round. Moretz explained that since "Dark Shadows" brings so much to the table, it will naturally play well to both older and younger crowds. "I think also it's open to the older group that actually saw the TV show back in the 1970s," she said. "And also the new group that love Tim Burton, and they love supernatural movies and TV shows." Though we haven't seen much from the set in the way of photos or trailers, the first official snap shot of the cast promised the signature Burton look with a cast of all-stars. Moretz took her praise one step further, when she said that it's not like much else we've ever seen. "I think it really is a revolutionary movie," she said. "Dark Shadows" opens on May 12. Be sure to cast your vote in MTV Movie Brawl 2012 to secure "Dark Shadows" spot in the next round or ensure its defeat against the Batman. Are you looking forward to "Dark Shadows"?

Ethan Hawke Looks Sinister
By 50 Percent new stills from Derrickson horrorBack within this summer time once we first reported on Scott Derrickson's new horror, particulars were sketchy. We understood Ethan Hawke was starring, but there has been no plot particulars without any title forthcoming. Now though, Summit Entertainment are starting to accomplish people gaps. The film is called Sinister, together with the initial few stills comes good info in regards to the story.It's the old cynical-author-meets-supernatural-mystery position (think 1408, and a lot of others) with Hawke just like a true-crime hack who moves in to a house that was the web site from the entire family's nasty murder. He then finds a box of films of other killings stowed within the charming new crib, and finds his ongoing analysis leading into paranormal territory, and also the own family in a few serious danger.Both pictures show Hawke frowning at evidence while sporting a great cardigan. Inside the first, he peers inside a crime sheet, too as with the second, he's broken the 8mm projector which is searching concerned about what he's watching. Well, that, or his 3d glasses are giving him head aches.So possibly Sinister doesn't appear like anything particularly new, but it's always great to find out Hawke, and there's further very good news: the film also features Vincent D'Onofrio.Director Derrickson cut his teeth on franchise sequels like Hellraiser: Inferno and concrete Tales: Final Cut, before branching out intoThe Exorcism Of Emily Rose andthe remake ofThe Day Our World Was Still Being. He's installed on possible future new versions of Poltergeist as well as the Wild wild birds, but he's also written a draft of Atom Egoyan's approaching The Devil's Knot, using the infamous situation in the West Memphis Three.Sinister is released inside the Uk on August 24.
