Unlike the events of 9/11, which filmmakers are just now collectively daring to approach nearly four years later, there’s no such waiting period for tragedy affecting other parts of the globe. So… tsunami movie! The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and resultant… Continue reading
We keep getting tons of emails about the latest casting on the sequel to Batman Begins (Batman Resumes?), and I continually have to be Snuffy the Fire Dog and put out the flames of fun. You see, people, it’s extremely difficult (probably not impossible, but… Continue reading
