If nothing else, the poster for Whiteout made me reread the original Greg Rucka/Steve Lieber graphic novel. See, the poster has all this text on it and some of the text says ‘serial killer.’ I didn’t remember there being a ‘serial killer’ in the book, but I hadn’t read it in a couple of years. … Continue reading

I must have missed the whole "chicks with phallic fun growing out of their perfectly sculpted asses is the new hotness bandwagon", because it’s rolling all through town and I’m still stuck on the tail-excluding "perfectly sculpted ass" wagon of 2006. 2007 case in point: Angelina Jolie and her tail-tacle of golden glory spawning king … Continue reading
I may have talked too much about the Watchmen set in previous updates, so I’m going to say as little as possible here. The official Watchmen site has updated with pictures of the Vancouver backlot that’s standing in for New York City. It looks pretty terrific in these pics, but more importantly: One of the … Continue reading
In Bruges is the opening night film of the Sundance Film Festival. I don’t want to go off on another tirade about the faux-indie quality of the festival these days (since I am currently awaiting press accreditation!), but it’s worth pointing out that Colin Farrell in a hitman comedy isn’t exactly edgy indie fare. It … Continue reading
There’s a good chance that many of you reading this know Max Headroom only as 80s nostalgia*. You never experienced Max firsthand, whether as a talk show host in England, where he got his start, or a commercial pitchman in the US. And even if you’re old enough to have been around when Max Headroom … Continue reading
3-D! It’s the sensation that’s sweeping the nation! Again. Of course, I don’t need to expound any further for you who love sharp objects hovering in front of your face or filmic blood all but showering you and yours. As for you who haven’t experienced the wonders of space age 3-D, the actual execution of … Continue reading
First of all… there’s no way this movie is going to be great because of a little factor I’d like to call the Happy Madison Factor. That said, holy shit. I’d heard Strange Wilderness mentioned in passing in Devin’s Beerfest Set Visit report but I glazed over it. I rarely check on my favorite creators’ … Continue reading
It’s difficult to imagine a creative team getting behind a big zombie project in 2007/2008. The genre has been bled, drawn and quartered. But Zack Snyder came up with a story he’s calling Army of the Dead and Joby Harold (director of Awake) has written a screenplay that’s being used to shop around for directors. … Continue reading
Wolverine may be a masta killa, but he’s also entirely predictable. You know he’s going to bust out the blades, you can rely on his berzerker attitude, and when a hot Asian girl comes on the scene, there’s no doubt he’s going to try to slip it to her. Once upon a time the object … Continue reading
