Over the ‘Moon’ with Duncan Jones & Sam Rockwell

Over the ‘Moon’ with Duncan Jones & Sam Rockwell In Duncan Jones' directing debut Moon, Sam Rockwell is a hard-working moon miner about to finish up his contract working for the government. His only companions are tapes from home and a talking computer, GERTY (voiced by Kevin Spacey in an eerie HAL-like voice). Sam whiles his time away sending videos back to his wife and child on Earth and building elaborate matchstick buildings when he's not retrieving precious resources from the moon for the folks back home. His tour of duty is so close to ending, he can taste it -- but of course, that's when things start going awry. It's hard to discuss Moon without giving away surprises. So beware -- Spoilers Ahead! -- as we talk with Rockwell and Jones about their trippy, old-school science-fiction flick. We get down to brass tacks about video games, futurism, Sam's refusal to get a computer, therapy, Twittering, and many other topics besides Duncan Jones' dad (who is David Bowie, fine, so let's move on).

Greg Mottola’s Ticket to ‘Adventureland’

Greg Mottola’s Ticket to ‘Adventureland’ Superbad director Greg Mottola is poised to pop the bromance bubble with Adventureland, a movie he wrote and directed based on his experiences as an underpaid carny one college summer. Starring Jesse Eisenberg as James Brennan, Mottola's fictionalized alter ego, and Twilight's Kristen Stewart as Em, his troubled love interest, Adventureland is a sweeter, slightly more serious, and definitely more stoned version of Superbad. After the jump, Mottola talks with us about who might be the awkward king of America, Twilight madness, getting mistaken for Moby, and his upcoming stab at sci-fi with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
