The Kidd Vs. The Vow
What would you do if the love of your life was involved in an accident, and, upon recovering, didn’t remember who you were? They had no recollection of your life together, your memories, nothing. What if they could only remember their old life before you, and what that was like? Would you be willing to [...]
Raven McCoy Enjoyed Her Time In Safe House
It seems like a year can’t go by without at least one movie following a man or men on the run (typically a spy or assassin) and the agent dead set on bringing him or her in. Last year was the awesome HANNA, with the so-so SALT the year before and one of my favorites, [...]
Joseph Gordon-Levitt Is Planning To Direct And Star In A Comedy He Wrote
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is going places… Do I really have to list all the shit he’s done recently and all the shit he’s getting involved with? Let’s try, there was 500 DAYS OF SUMMER, INCEPTION, and of course, the wonderful 50/50. This year, he has THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, LINCOLN, PREMIUM RUSH, and DJANGO UNCHAINED. That [...]
Owen Wilson And Vince Vaughn Are Back For A New Comedy With Shawn Levy Directing
I loved WEDDING CRASHERS back in 2005. Hell, I saw it in theatres and thoroughly enjoyed the hell out of it. All that nudity from all those beautiful women really made it all the more enjoyable… plus it gave me another look at the gorgeous Rachel McAdams. (At that point, I hadn’t seen MEAN GIRLS [...]
Another Princess Diana Biopic Is Being Made
Unfortunately, Princess Diana’s celebrity was before my time. She died when I was pretty young, so when her death shocked the world, it had very little impact on me. The only thing I knew about her at the time was that she was a princess (no, duh) and that Elton John rewrote the song “Candle [...]
Russell Crowe Succinctly Tells Everyone He Isn’t In Talks To Play Robocop
Last week, it was reported here that Darren Aronofsky was looking at the great Russell Crowe to play the titular character in his epic retelling of a very recognized Biblical character, NOAH. Well, in light of this, well-known Variety writer, Jeff Sneider decided to tweet out loud about the fact that Russell Crowe “MIGHT” be [...]
The Karate Kid Sequel Script Moves Forward
There are a handful of movies that make me physically angry when they’re brought up in conversation, forcing me to recall my horrible memories of suffering through them. NAPOLEON DYNAMITE is the cream of the crop. Oh, man… does that movie piss me off… but following in a close second is the remake of THE [...]
Jay And Silent Bob Are Striking Back Again In An Animated Feature
All of that Kevin Smith retirement talk may have been a bit premature, as, in addition to HIT SOMEBODY, which Smith now plans on making into one 2½ flick, there’s been a secret Jay and Silent Bob project in the works for awhile that could reveal itself by the end of the year. In an [...]
The Wolverine Has A Release Date
Alright… so X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE didn’t exactly set the world on fire, unless you’re counting the whole scorch the earth tactic inflicted by its suckiness. As a result, you have every right not to look forward to another solo Wolverine flick. Fool me once… well, you know how it goes. However, 20th Century Fox and [...]
Life After Matt Damon Begins With The First Bourne Legacy Trailer
Just in time to get exposure with the crowd coming out this weekend for SAFE HOUSE, Universal Pictures has released the first trailer for THE BOURNE LEGACY, otherwise known as the Bourne movie that doesn’t actually have Bourne in it. Moving on from Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass, THE BOURNE LEGACY has Jeremy Renner [...]
Al Pacino Replaces Javier Bardem As Villain In Despicable Me Sequel
I was really looking forward to Javier Bardem starring in the DESPICABLE ME sequel back in October. It seemed they were building the character around him considering the fact that the villain would be Latin, since his character was named El Macho. But unfortunately, Bardem decided to pass on the role because he presumably wanted [...]
Chris Rock Is Courting Melissa McCarthy For An Upcoming Comedy
I really enjoy Chris Rock’s stuff. I think he’s an insanely funny and intelligent guy. I try to look forward to a lot of his stuff, when not all of it is good. Remember, I THINK I LOVE MY WIFE? Sure, Kerry Washington was hot as hell, but it’s still hard to take that flick [...]
Looks Like Danny Trejo Might Be Wielding A Machete Again
So I remember renting MACHETE a couple years back and fucking loved how absurd it was. It wasn’t Robert Rodriguez’s best flick nor was it Danny Trejo’s best, but it was just too ridiculous to not be thoroughly entertained. So much gore, nudity, and Trejo being oh-so bad-ass. Anyway, at the end of the flick, [...]
The Raid US Remake Gets A Writer
THE RAID is getting a lot of press these days, yet it still hasn’t been seen by the general public. Most of the people that have seen it are journalists and folks who had the cash to get into those festivals. But it’s been one hell of a reception. Most folks have been raving about [...]
Despite Rumors, Harrison Ford Is Not In Talks To Be In The Blade Runner Project
News regarding that new BLADE RUNNER project has been sparse. For the most part, details about this flick have been just as as far and wide as PROMETHEUS before the marketing got underway. Since it’s first announcement back in March, there hasn’t been much news regarding the project except that Ridley Scott was coming back [...]
New Spider-Man Trailer Isn’t Quite Amazing
Finally Sony and Columbia Pictures have elected to let us see a new glimpse at THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, the studio’s attempt to reboot your friendly neighborhood webslinger only five years after Sam Raimi’s trilogy of films came to an unsuspecting end in disappointing fashion. Of course we didn’t know that was the end then, and, [...]
All The Super Bowl XLVI Movie Spots You Want
Sprinkled among the rest of the high-priced batch of Super Bowl commercials each year, which prevent us from ever getting up to pee during breaks in the game, lest we miss anything eye-catching or entertaining, is typically a bunch of movie TV spots, using the opportunity in front of a massive viewing audience to get [...]
The Rack – Second Week of February 2012
SECOND WEEK OF FEBRUARY 2012 Something big happened on Sunday right? It wasn’t a big awards show, that I do know. It wasn’t an election. Those aren’t until later in the year. A celebrity didn’t pass. I know there’s something. Something happened Sunday but I just can’t put my finger on it. Oh well. Probably wasn’t [...]
Another Collection Of Posters To Share: Spider-Man, 21 Jump Street, And John Carter
Some posters have been aggregating over the last week and it seems as usual that it would be more practical to put up one large poster post instead inundating the site and Facebook with so many different articles about the same subject matter. So let’s round them up together and throw out a big image-filled [...]
Bridget Jones Might Not Be Having Her Baby
Well, the problems surrounding the BRIDGET JONES threequel seems to have the flick to hit a standstill. The Hollywood Reporter is telling us that production has been halted almost indefinitely after the crew was dissatisfied with the script, most notably Hugh Grant, who plays Daniel Cleaver, reprising his role from the first couple of flicks. [...]
The Evil Dead Remake Casts Their Male And Female Lead
Last we heard on the set of THE EVIL DEAD remake was that Lily Collins had apparently dropped out of being the supposed female Ash because of some scheduling conflicts. As much as I really didn’t have much to say about her acting ability, I feel like it was a bit of a shame considering [...]
Looks Like The Raid Is Getting A Sequel
So if you were able to get around to reading my list of anticipated movies for 2012, you’d know that THE RAID ranks pretty high on my list. I haven’t seen much about it, but that one red band trailer was truly enough to get me excited. Just the insanely cool and different style of [...]
Will Darth Maul Return For The Insidious Sequel?
He might. But the news here isn’t so much about what scary demon might appear in the INSIDIOUS sequel, it’s the fact that there is a sequel coming at all. I kind of expected it considering they did end the movie with a bit of mystery about what could possibly happen next, but it was [...]
The Short Circuit Remake Is Still Alive After Signing On Writer Matt Lieberman
I am a huge fan of the SHORT CIRCUIT franchise. I mean, when you’re a kid watching this insanely charming robot crack jokes and reprogram his counterparts to act like the Three Stooges, you’re going to be completely enamored by it. By and by, when you grow up, you have to realize that those movies [...]
Jon Doe Managed To Find The Superpower In Chronicle
When I walked out of watching CHRONICLE, I felt really guilty for having liked what I just saw. It bothered me that I totally bought into what had transpired in the film and that I was completely complacent in the fact that the film systematically creates what I can only describe as a near-deity existing [...]
