I have to tell you that I am flat out amazed that there is going to be a movie based on The Monkey Wrench Gang. Edward Abbey’s classic 1975 novel (buy it here!) is about a group of people who sabotage industrial development – it’s like a comic novel with Earth First! as the heroes. … Continue reading
When you’re a long dead rapper who keeps releasing records that sell well, how can you possibly top yourself? By becoming a screenwriter, of course. In a move that will surely make thousands of struggling screenwriters flat out apoplectic, Insomnia Media Group has bought a script Tupac Shakur wrote back in 1995. Shakur intended to … Continue reading
Nathan Fillion’s just a stand up guy. It’s not like I had that much time to spend with him, but the man just exudes trustworthiness. It’s a good thing that Firefly came along, because the guy needed to be in a cowboy role. It suits him. I had a chance to get a one on … Continue reading

He’s long been a fan-favorite (and might be the most fantasy cast human being in history), and in recent years he’s shown that while he’s not ashamed of being the Evil Dead … Continue reading

This should probably fall under the aegis of THUD, but I don’t want to hijack Devin’s irregular feature any more than he feels compelled to resuscitate my equally sporadic Underground column, so pretend the following news is more than just television related. The Sci-Fi Channel has graciously approved a new series that actually does not … Continue reading
New York City Chewers, there’s a great opportunity coming your way. Park Chanwook, the brilliant director of Joint Security Area, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Oldboy and the upcoming Lady Vengeance, will be doing his first ever US in-store appearance this Thursday. He’ll be signing copies of Oldboy at Tower Records – the one on 4th … Continue reading
Like Father Like Son. All of Me. Vice Versa. 18 Again. Freaky Friday. Switch. 13 Going on 30. All such classic and ingenious comedies, it’s no surprise we haven’t yet seen the death of the body-swap genre. Scooby Doo series director Raja Gosnell is shifting from digitized hounds and meddling kids for one of those … Continue reading
I’m hopeful that someday Colin Farrell will live up to the promise he showed in American Outlaws, and continually surrounding himself with other talented folks can’t hurt. Maybe someday, if he keeps trying, he’ll be a star. The single-browed stud will shift his focus from historical epics like Alexander and Miami Vice to join Edward Norton … Continue reading
