Hugh Jackman recently did press for this weekend’s magician movie, The Prestige, and SciFi.com asked him about the negative reaction his next film, The Fountain, garnered at some festivals in the past few months. Hugh wasn’t at the festivals – he was doing The Boy From Oz in Oz, it turns out – but he … Continue reading →
“Hey! It’s his career! He must hate his career! Stay away from his career!” Eddie Murphy has not learned the tough lessons of his (and Chris Rock’s) past. This is the only reason I can imagine for him signing on to a film whose basic pitch sounds like “Pluto Nash meets Osmosis Jones!” – Starship … Continue reading →

What’s interesting about Peter Berg’s career isn’t that this goofy character actor has become one of my favorite directors, it’s that he gets attached to more projects that remoras get attached to sharks. Last week when the rumor went up that he might direct Will Smith in the dark, revisionist superhero movie Tonight, He Comes, … Continue reading →
In an event that is sure to inform the course of many a young man’s sexual awakening, Lindsay Lohan has signed on to star with Keira Knightley in The Best Times of Our Lives, and La Lohan has revealed that “there’s somewhat of a lesbian undertone” between the characters the two actresses are playing.

Just when you thought Sly Stallone was on a roll – Rocky VI is hitting theaters this Christmas (thank you Santa Claus!) and Rambo IV is set to begin filming early next year – a terrible obstacle has risen before him. A great big fleshy obstacle. The Weinsteins. The Bros Weinstein filed a lawsuit on … Continue reading →
