We could simply cut and paste stories from Variety, but we don’t. We’re too amazing for that. We RETYPE articles from Variety…

YO QUIERO TINKERBELL

Few directors of this generation have exhibited the insight, skill and raw talent as Raja Gosnell. Known by his powerful works more than name, Raja continues to toil in the shadows of the art he creates. You may not know him, but you can bet your ass you know his life’s work, which includes Scooby … Continue reading

NO DATES FOR SALLAH

As casting announcements have been made for Indiana Jones IV (including the final confirmation of the rumor that all CHUD readers knew to be true months ago – that Shia LaBeouf is in the movie, despite his repeated denials. Shia the Liar!), one name has been absent. There’s been no word of Jonathan Rhys-Davies coming … Continue reading

SPAGHETTI WESTERNS? PSHAW. I’M TALKING GUMBO WESTERN

I’m somewhat notorious for being into cable-caliber movies featuring B-to-Z-grade actors, and while that’s certainly true, it doesn’t apply across the board. If we’re talking pulpy genres like action movies or lurid “erotic” thrillers, then who needs the dramatic muscle of legitimate stars? Z-grade presence sometimes counts for more, especially in the hands of a … Continue reading

SCULLY, MEET HELEN

Some days, the news just kinda shapes up in a particular paradigm. Today, it seems to be women from acclaimed sci-fi TV shows with frustrating extended narratives trying to nurture an onscreen career. First, was Evangeline Lilly. Now, it’s Gillian Anderson. For American audiences, Anderson all but disappeared after the lengthy run of The X … Continue reading

AFTER EVANGELINE LILLY, MY SWEET

Of all of the relatively new to Hollywood cast members of ABC’s declining yet formidable show Lost, the top two that people are dying to see what they do next would have to be Josh Holloway and Evangeline Lilly. Though they’ve each had some minor TV credits to their name before the show, neither has … Continue reading

11CA! VIDEO FEATURETTE

The new investor’s EPK for 11 Colonels ATTACK! is finished and ready for battle. Though I doubt there are a lot of folks looking to finance motion pictures that don’t involve Most Valuable Primates, I figured the CHUD.com crowd would at least find something to enjoy in our little six minute video made possible by … Continue reading

TRICK, NO TREAT

If you didn’t catch the trailer for Rob Zombie’s remake of Halloween on Yahoo! the other day, it’s too late. The trailer has been taken down by order of the MPAA, who has declared it too violent. The trailer will now be reclassified as a ‘Yellow Tag’ trailer – it will be back online soon, … Continue reading

POTTER PUNISHED FOR PLANET TERROR?

Last week everybody was talking about Grindhouse and why it failed. It was like THE hot topic of conversations amongst douchebags like myself who sit on the sidelines of Hollywood as well as the douchebags who are smack dab in the middle of it all. Many people pointed at the film’s gargantuan running time of … Continue reading

KASDAN OF THE TITANS

If you’re going to have to remake a movie (and following 300’s wild success, Warner Bros to remake Clash of the Titans), you can at least get a good writer on board. Like the guy who wrote Dreamcatcher, for instance. I kid Lawrence Kasdan, of course. While that film sent him into hiding for four … Continue reading

ED NORTON SMASH

Marvel continues to surprise me with their movies – Iron Man has a completely killer cast that sells the whole film all on its own. Now they’ve announced the lead for Hulk 2, and it’s none other than The Best Actor of His Generation, Ed Norton playing Doctor Bruce Banner, belted by gamma rays. This … Continue reading
