Bond 23 = Carte Blanche?

Edited 9/2 1004 According to ScreenRant, the next Bond adventure will be called “Carte Blanche.”  It’s the title of an actual James Bond novel, though by Jeffrey Deaver, who appears to have been chosen to helm the character by Ian Flemming’s estate. I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t like it, especially when […]

Starz Will Stop Supplying Movies To Netflix

According to Nikki Finke’s Deadline, Starz will not longer provide content to Netflix when the current arrangement expires toward the end of February of next year. This can be nothing but terrible news for Netflix management because Starz provides a significant amount of content, particularly movies, though there are TV shows as well. Viewers too […]

Batmobile For Sale

A few weeks ago, I wrote a piece about a motorcycle modeled on the lightcycles from Tron: Legacy.  And while that’s a cool vehicle, it doesn’t quite have the cache as the Batmobile.

‘The Hunger Games’ Teaser Trailer

Here’s the teaser trailer for Gary Ross’s “The Hunger Games,” based upon the young adult series of novels by Suzanne Collins.  I am aware of them (I dig their minimalist covers) but haven’t been seriously into ‘young adult’ fiction since John Christopher’s “The White Mountains.” I hope Lionsgate has better luck with this than “Conan, […]

Josh Brolin Is ‘Oldboy’

Sorry about the delay on this one (damn work;). According to Deadline, Josh Brolin has signed up for Spike Lee’s “Oldboy.” I want to call it a remake of Chan-wook Park’s film, but it seems that it’s based upon the manga (which was the basis for the film).

Red Band ‘Our Idiot Brother’ Trailer

Here’s the red band trailer for Jesse Peretz‘ “Our Idiot Brother.” Contained therein are a few somewhat infantile gags involving urination and male nudity, which is why the commercial was banned by ABC, despite there being nothing that we haven’t seen before. That being said, you see guys having conversations at urinals on TV, despite […]
