CAGE FEELING DANGEROUS

When Nic Cage latches onto something, look out! For years he was kooky for comic books, which ultimately landed his ass on the Hellcycle for Marvel’s Ghost Rider flick. Now he really seems to be into Asian material (and not just his young Korean wife, nuh-HAH!) — he’s expressed interest in the proposed Oldboy remake, National … Continue reading

DAILY GRABOID 6.6.06

What is this? Every single day of the week (almost), a new "Graboid", a single moment grabbed from a random movie, appears on this site for you to guess the name of the film, share with your officemates, or discuss on our message boards. Sometimes the Graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be … Continue reading

JESSICA ALBA HAS LOOSE LIPS ABOUT FF2

There are a lot of things I like about Jessica Alba (and by "like" I mean "furiously masturbate while fantasizing about"), and exactly none of them are her acting ability. Which is why the head-to-toe coverage of her transcendent chassis in Fantastic Four is so maddening. Such a waste. At least that unstable molecule outfit … Continue reading

A NEW HITCHER HITCHES IN

I suddenly feel better about the new but probably still completely unnecessary remake of The Hitcher. "Why?" you may ask. "I’ll tell you," I would answer. And then tell you. It’s because it would take someone with just the right combination of charismatic and sociopathic to replace the original’s Rutger Hauer, and the filmmakers have come pretty … Continue reading

SELLING SEX AT THE THEATER

This isn’t exactly news, but I thought it was pretty funny… CHUD reader Josh was recently at a Century Theater in Illinois and snapped this quick pic of an especially provocative arrangement of teaser posters for Superman Returns, Eragon and the new Pirates of the Caribbean. For clarity I included the original posters outside of their … Continue reading

FROM DEATH DEALERS TO DIE HARD

In the time it’s taken another Die Hard to come together, I could’ve (hyperbole alert) gone through police training, made detective, had my own improbable encounter with terrorists and shot my own movie about the experience. After a decade of rumors (Justin Timberlake as John Jr.? Tony Jaa as the villain?) and false starts and … Continue reading

TRAILER: SUPERMAN RETURNS

It seems like the marketing monkeys have finally figured out how to sell Bryan Singer’s franchise-defibrillating Superman Returns: by focusing on chipmunk-cheeked villain Lex Luthor and his nefarious plot to cover the planet in black crystal or some nonsense that probably seems like a good idea at the time. My interest in the Superman character remains … Continue reading
