The cast and crew of Frank Miller's The Spirit just got another killer set of curves to ogle. Less than a week after landing Scarlett Johansson as the femme fatale Silk N. Floss (coincidentally, the name of my dermatologist), the production has now found its… Continue reading →
Remember those "Twisted World of Oz" figures McFarlane Toys released a few years back? Ready to see a bound and blindfolded Dorothy being victimized by a nasty pair of munchkins on the big screen? Well, screenwriter Josh Olson isn't, but he's going to help… Continue reading →
I'll keep this short, since Paul W. S. Anderson's Death Race (nee Death Race 3000) is quickly becoming one of my most reviled movies of the year, and it's not even shot yet. I know that's bad. You know that's bad. But how can I help myself? But look, when you… Continue reading →
It’s the week after The King Of Kong opened to great reviews and good numbers for a limited release, and director Seth Gordon already has two new projects lined up. So why am I not happy for him? For starters, because one is a dramatic remake of The King of… Continue reading →

Christian Bale is much funnier and more personable face to face than he is in his films, but I wish he was a little more forthcoming. When asked at the 3:10 To Yuma junket if he had been asked to play Batman in the Justice League movie, he just shook his… Continue reading →
I’ve been lagging on the whole Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD battle for some time now being that I gave up my early tech adopting ways some time ago. In fact, HDTV itself has been a big disappointment to me until recently when Direct TV just launched a new satellite… Continue reading →
I have an affinity for political talk radio, both right and left, and while you have to put up with a lot of bloviating, you sometimes happen upon a remarkable story that doesn't get a lot of attention elsewhere and makes it all worthwhile. A few months ago,… Continue reading →
I’ve never been the biggest horror fan, but I’ve actually missed the genre on the bigscreen in recent years. Well, the meat and potatoes portion of it, anyway. I’m talking about regular people in a remote location beset upon by irrational killing machines… Continue reading →
If I was a betting man, I would lay my money down on a Justice League movie hitting theaters in 2009. IESB has heard from their sources that Warner Bros is looking to get the film underway by early next year; I can confirm that from my own sources: this is a… Continue reading →
Every time I hear something new about Cloverfield or 1-18-08 or whatever, I am more and more drawn to the belief that the emperor has no clothes. We’re four or five months away and don’t have a title for the movie yet, which is interpreted by some online as… Continue reading →
