Movie News

We could simply cut and paste stories from Variety, but we don’t. We’re too amazing for that. We RETYPE articles from Variety…

TRAILER: ULTRAVIOLET

Just the other day I told someone there wasn’t really anything I was interested in seeing theatrically until V for Vendetta and Slither, but I think I’ll retract that statement… After Equilibrium, Kurt Wimmer promised he’d be taking his action sequences to the next level, and I guess he wasn’t messing around — his latest … Continue reading

DAILY GRABOID 1.13.06

What is this? Every single day of the week (almost), a new "Graboid", a single moment grabbed from a random movie, appears on this site for you to guess the name of the film, share with your officemates, or discuss on our message boards. Sometimes the Graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be … Continue reading

EXCLUSIVE. SLITHER. PICTURES.

Have you noticed that we’re a little high on James Gunn’s Slither? It’s as if he took all of the prestige he got from doing zombie and talking dog flicks and made a movie just for us. He didn’t, but it never hurts to dream. Today we have a handful of new images, a few … Continue reading

BATMAN BALONEY

The fact that there’s yet to be an official announcement from the studio, or definitive commitment by director Chris Nolan (who at the moment is busy with his dueling magician movie The Prestige) and writer David Goyer (who’s working on getting his Blade TV show running), doesn’t prevent “reliable sources” and “trusted insiders” from offering … Continue reading

FINCHER COLLECTS MORE BODY PARTS

Director David Fincher is definitely back in Seven mode (and no, I refuse to put the digit in the middle, because it’s asinine) – he’s finishing up Zodiac (based on the true account of the mysterious San Francisco mass-murderer and astrology fan) and will then tell of what some consider “America’s first true serial killer”. Fincher … Continue reading

TRAILER: BEOWULF & GRENDEL

Viking projects are the proverbial rage at the moment (hey, they discovered North America first, y’know!), with lots of Norse warriors boarding their marauder ships and setting sail to pillage Hollywood. This indie version of Beowulf & Grendel beats Robert Zemeckis’ expensive “performance capture” version of the tale (but pulls up behind the phenomenal Christopher … Continue reading

AARDMAN GETS SHELL SHOCK

Since a tragic inferno turned most of their Wallace & Gromit artifacts into a large melted multicolored pool, Aardman is getting out the Turtle Wax and moving toward the starting line with another ampersand project. The claymation masters are resurrecting their animated update of the Aesop fable The Tortoise & the Hare. The company shelved … Continue reading

“HEY BOB, BEFORE YOU DIE…”

While Robert Altman was filming his new film, A Prairie Home Companion, he had to have an understudy director on hand in case – well, in case he died. Altman’s old. If this was the mid 90s I would say he was mad old. (Fittingly, the understudy was Paul Thomas Anderson, whose films make him … Continue reading
