Spider-Man Irritates Conservatives
Here’s a link to an interesting story on Mediate about Spider-Man, who he is, who he isn’t and what the some in the Conservative media have to say about it.
Lawrence Fishburne Cast As Perry White
This has got to be one of the most interesting casting decisions I have seen in awhile. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Lawrence Fishburne is playing Perry White in Zach Snyder’s “Man of Steel,” his reboot/reimaging of Superman. He’s definitely got the presence (and gravitas to spare) for the role, though I am concerned what […]
Green Lantern 2?!
Edited 12/26 1227 You have got to be kidding me. According to ComicBookMovie.com, Jeff Robinov, film group president of Warner Brothers, says that they’re planning for a Green Lantern 2; though why do I get the feeling that this is nothing more than hubris, as opposed to having any shot of actually being done? In […]
Return To The ‘Planet Of The Apes’
The original “Planet of the Apes” was based upon the novel, “La Planète des Singes,” by Pierre Boulle, with a screenplay by Rod Sterling (“Requiem for a Heavyweight,” “The Twilight Zone,” “Night Gallery,” etc).

Jason Momoa isn’t someone whom I would have […]
Cowboys Vs. Smurfs
According to Deadline Raja Gosnell’s “The Smurfs” is stronger than anyone–including me–has anticipated (or that Cowboys & Aliens is weaker, depending upon how you look at it). Weekend box office for both films is running neck and neck. I am not sure why this is, though it’s interesting because, while Box Office Mojo doesn’t list […]
‘Tucker And Dale Vs. Evil’ Trailer
Now this I want to see! Two seeming innocent and clueless guys in a film revolving around misconceptions and stereotypes played for laughs. If done well, this could be very, very FUN!
‘Red Tails’ Trailer
The trailer for Anthony Hemmingway’s “Red Tails is here, via Yahoo! Movies. The film, which has been in development for quite awhile, is notable for being a story of the Tuskegee Airmen, as well as that it’s produced by George Lucas. Yes, that George Lucas.
‘Attack The Block’ In Limited Release
Edited 7/29 2156 2158 2200 When I heard that Joe Cornish’s “Attack The Block” would be opening today, I assumed that it was nationwide. It appears that this is not the case, though there was a sneak preview in Washington, DC a month or two ago. Despite seemingly skirting the DC region, it has opened in […]
