The Fountain took six years to get made, and Darren Aronofsky isn’t looking to wait that long before he gets to his next film. Universal is fast-tracking Black Swan – a (I swear to God) ballet thriller – to be the director’s next project. A ballet thriller, huh? The movie is being written by John … Continue reading

The MPAA, smugly caught with their pants down and forcibly man-handled by Kirby Dick and This Film Is Not Yet Rated, is in the process of attempting to more clearly explain ratings decisions.

Here’s a way to make someone feel important: ignore not one but two phone calls from Michael Bay while talking to him. My one on one with Andrew Form and Brad Fuller – two thirds of Platinum Dunes, the other third being Bay – came at the end of the day at the junket for … Continue reading
Jon Favreau has logged back into MySpace. He doesn’t log in for the same reasons I do – to see how 17 year old girls fill their newly expanded to 300 picture profiles – he comes on to give us the good news about his upcoming Iron Man, which is just two weeks from being … Continue reading
