As an idea man, you can’t deny what Lucas has come up with, but from a public relations standpoint George Lucas is a nightmare, destroying his own creations as he builds on them, then pissing off fans as he attempts to maintain his stronghold on his own creations. ... read more

Steve Martin and Diane Keaton kind of defined on-screen couples for me when I was about 8, and the Father of the Bride movies were popular repeat rentals in my house. And they do so well together! In the intervening 15 years or so, neither has done too well for themselves—Keaton is stuck in bland comedies ... read more |

National Lampoon announced a little while ago that they would start distributing their own films, and stop diluting their brand with straight-to-DVD crap and the occasional straight-to-theaters crap. Now they’ll be releasing Homo Erectus come June, and it seems that promise about no longer releasing crap was, well, a load of crap... read more |

Warner Brothers has just sent us a brand new video diary from the set of Watchmen. Zack Snyder’s adaptation of the classic, same-named graphic novel is still heavy in the production process, as the film’s March 6th, 2009 release date draws closer. In this, the second video diary released from the set... read more |

The first trailer for Woody Allen’s Vicky Christina Barcelona is here. In it, Scarlett Johansson makes out with just about everything, especially Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz. The former is extremely hairy, the latter is, admittedly, extremely enjoyable viewing... read more |

There can never be enough movies about hot tubs that turn into time machines. Fortunately, MGM agrees with me and is going to bring another one of these sure-fire masterpieces to the big screen. So that people won’t get confused about what the movie might be about, the plan is to remove all doubt by calling it Hot Tub Time Machine ... read more |

Sam Jackson is the bad guy in Frank Miller’s The Spirit. He plays a character called The Octopus, and apparently he’s some sort of super-pimp. Or at least that’s what it looks like in the new picture of him debuting on the cover of Comic-Con Magazine... read more |

When you’re doing a junket and two actors come into the room together, it’s sometimes a frustrating experience—one will take all the questions while the other sits back, or sometimes they’ll even joke with each other rather than answer anything. But with Georgie Henley (who plays the youngest Pevensie, Lucy)... read more |

Bill Murray and Tim Robbins are the latest actors to jump on the fantasy movie train, and their new fantasy film City of Ember has just gotten it’s first ever teaser poster. It’s not much of a poster, just a sort of clunky looking logo really. The movie’s about two teenagers... read more |

There’s been talk of a Fraggle Rock movie for years now. Last we heard it was supposed to be in production over at the Jim Henson Company, along with a sequel to The Dark Crystal. It’s still happening, but it looks like the Henson Company needed a little help to get it done... read more |

In the end there seemed to be some merit to the claims. On Sunday the studio declared that they expected the movie to bank $20.2 million but when actual tallies came out today the grand total was actually $18.5 million. A $1.7 million dollar difference may sound huge, but it’s not the first time something like this has happened.... read more |

The comic book story centers around a magical gauntlet which endows the user special powers. One female is “chosen” in each generation to don the jewel-encrusted glove. In 2000, that “chosen” woman was played by Yancy Butler, who I would be more than happy see return to the role... read more |

You may ask yourself, how on earth did Warner Bros. fabricate $2 million dollars and tack it on to their totals? Not being a box office expert, I have no clue, but I imagine it’s some combination of wishful thinking, fuzzy math, and perhaps out-and-out skullduggery. It seems petty to fight over rankings on a chart... read more |

Two years is enough time for people to change their minds about Alvin and the Chipmunks. It’s even enough time for those who continue to love the movie to lose interest in seeing more adventures. After all, this is a movie marketed largely to children, and children grow up pretty quickly. ... read more |

Jennifer’s Body is the next movie from Juno screenwriter Diablo Cody, and while that’s kind of nice the only reason anyone’s really interested in it is Megan Fox. You probably remember her from Transformers, where she bent over the hood of a car and turned Shia LaBeouf into a man. In Jennifer’s Body, she plays a super hot, sexed up cheerleader who feeds on boys... read more |
