Rockstar just put up the box art for Grand Theft Auto IV on its website, via a trailer showing you how it was made. A little excessive, no? It’s bad enough we’ve got release days and times for trailers, but now the cover art? Come on. Just get that game out, okay? Check out the … Continue reading
Looking to capitalize on the enduring cult popularity of Mr. Nanny and the recent box office windfall generated by The Nanny Diaries, Samuel L. Jackson has agreed to star as a brat minder in The Man That Rocks the Cradle for New Line. I’m currently hitting up sources to clarify that this is not, in … Continue reading
Comment on the MB Leak Thread – Send a Feedback Letter – Leave a Voice Mail @ 678-827-0940 The Set Up. Come one and all to the Steady Leak, my signature column that has been manhandled, prodded, and inserted into more nubile bodies than the Pope’s flaccid carpaccio.

And they’ve kicked things off with the lovely Selma Blair as … Continue reading
Everyone I know who has seen Juno [Russ’s Review] say it’s a very special movie. Unanimously. That some of these folks aren’t big fans of Jason Reitman’s excellent Thank You for Smoking scares me a little but not enough not to have any lack of faith with the filmmaker’s follow-up.

Is this DVD any good? “Soitenly!” says Kevin.
I doubt Stuart Beattie enjoys being referred to as "G.I. Joe Screenwriter", but for the amount of coin he’s pulling down to re-imagine the toy line as a "Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity", Mr. Seven Figures can take a little ribbing. Like many screenwriters who fatten their bank accounts on studio junk, Beattie is apparently … Continue reading
