The Coen Brothers, makers of “True Grit,” “Fargo,” “The Hudsucker Proxy,” “Raising Arizona, “Miller’s Crossing,” among others, will be producing an hour-long comedy series at Fox, the news of which confuses me a tad. It will their first foray into television, though I am not sure that TV is big enough to contain their unique […]
According to “The Daily Beast,” the current season of”The Simpsons” may be the last. The series, about a family that excel at dysfunction, has been on the air for 23 seasons. There are some valid reasons that the series should end, one of which is that it’s just a bit long in the tooth. Another […]
Below is the the trailer for Roman Polanski‘s “Carnage.” The last film of his I saw was “Rosemary’s Baby,” which was not nearly as entertaining as it was made out to be. I have no intention of seeing anything else that the man puts out–and kick myself on occasion for even seeing ‘Rosemary,’–because there’s that […]
This new poster from the upcoming sequel to 2007’s “Ghost Rider” is cool because it it hints at what fans of the character have known all along, which is that he isn’t a “good guy” in the traditional sense (which the flaming skull and hellfire thing should have made readily apparent). He’s a little more […]
According to Deadline, Arrested Development, cancelled in 2006, is coming back as a 10-episode series as a lead-in to a feature film version. Netflix and Showtime are in talks with Twentieth Century Fox TV to air the series.
Kevin Tancharoen, the director of 2009’s “Fame” reboot–perhaps one of the most unnecessary remakes that I can recall–was so impressed with “Mortal Combat” that he directed a series of short films, four of which I have included below, that reinvented the series in a more realistic, gritty fashion than Paul W.S. Anderson’ s original film. […]
Chris Carter, whose absence from movies and television could almost be the subject of an X-File itself, is back, according to Deadline. He was the driving force behind television series like “The X-Files,” “Harsh Realm,” Millennium,” and “The Lone Gunmen,” as well as the films, “The X-Files: Fight The Future” and its sequel, “X-Files: I […]
Here’s the trailer for the upcoming second season of the Frank Darabont-less “The Walking Dead.” While I can’t get around, over, or under that it seems that he was treated very shabbily by AMC, there’s some comfort in, according to Aint It Cool News, that the first episode of the new season is the believed by them […]
Looking at this trailer, despite never having read the book by Alexandre Dumas, I get the feeling that this movie isn’t going to be the least bit faithful–except in a very surface manner–with the novel that it’s supposedly based upon. This makes me wonder why it’s even be called ‘The Three Musketeers,’ as opposed to something […]
According to Deadline, Kevin Costner has removed himself from consideration for a role in Quentin Tarantino’s “Django Unchained,” supposedly because of his very busy schedule. That being said, Tarantino, whom I am not a big fan of, seems to understand what it is that the moving-going public wants to see. After all, his Inglourious Basterds […]
