Warner Bros. has sent out an alert to us media outlets saying there's a ton of new items for their upcoming 3-D remake Journey to the Center of the Earth. They weren't kidding around either. The studio has unveiled seven new video clips over at Yahoo today. The film, which will be going up against Hellboy II: The Golden Army on July 11, stars Brendan Fraser, Josh Hutcherson and Anita Briem. Director Eric Brevig led the production for WB, based on a screenplay by D.V. DeVincentis.

Plot Summary: In the family adventure "Journey to the Center of the Earth," three adventurers plunge deep into a strange new realm beneath the Earth's surface where they embark on an amazing voyage and find awe-inspiring sites amidst grave danger.

During a scientific expedition in Iceland, visionary scientist Trevor Anderson (Brendan Fraser), his nephew Sean (Josh Hutcherson) and their beautiful local guide, Hannah (Anita Briem), are unexpectedly trapped in a cave from which their only escape is to go deeper and deeper into the depths of the Earth. Traveling through never-before-seen worlds, the trio comes face-to-face with surreal and unimaginable creatures--including man-eating plants, giant flying piranha, glow birds and terrifying dinosaurs from days past. The explorers soon realize that as volcanic activity increases around them, they must find a way back to the earth's surface before it is too late.


With spectacular photo-real environments and revolutionary new filmmaking techniques, "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is an epic adventure that takes audiences directly into the heart of our heroes' voyage, bringing them along for a wild, visceral ride.

New Line Cinema and Walden Media present "Journey to the Center of the Earth" starring Brendan Fraser ("Crash," "The Mummy" films), Josh Hutcherson ("Bridge to Terabithia") and Anita Briem ("The Tudors"). The film marks the big screen directorial debut of Academy Award-winning visual effects veteran Eric Brevig ("Total Recall," "Pearl Harbor").

A kinetic thrill ride that puts a contemporary twist on Jules Verne's original novel, "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is the first live-action, narrative motion picture to be shot in digital 3D.

Journey to the Center of the Earth 3-D will hit theaters July 11, 2008.

GEEZ, they've made the "Mummy" spin-off before the "Mummy 3" has even come out! Boy, they sure work fast, don't they!

I actually had a chance to screen this one a few days ago, and was pleasantly surprised. It reminded me very much of 80s Spielberg family films - fantastical and far-fetched with a little bit of heart thrown in. It's quick-moving and entertaining. Good summer fare, for sure.
