SELLING MR. SCRIMM

If you’re going to do a horror film, you couldn’t do much better than basing it in the dank and foggy streets of 18th century London. Or John Travolta’s aging underpants. Thankfully, director Larry Fessenden chose the former with his upcoming horror, I Sell the Dead. Still, if there’s one thing stock about any dark … Continue reading

MIA. MAMMA MIA.

Of all of the guys to play James Bond, Pierce Brosnan is the one who seems to have taken his post-Bond career the most seriously. He’s been happily tweaking the suave Bond image in films like The Matador (which he also produced), and now he’ll be doing even more damage as one of the stars … Continue reading

MCADAMS TAPS THE SAP AGAIN

All those 20-something women with The Notebook listed as their favorite movie on MySpace may soon have a new top tearjerker. Rachel McAdams has signed on to The Return alongside Tim Robbins and Michael Pena, working under Illusionist director Neil Burger.

DUDE, WHERE’S MY WAVES?

Matthew McConaughey is one of those guys who I like to see in films, but I just don’t want to see him act.

McG MAY BE BORN TO LOSE

You remember McG, right? This is the guy that started off directing dayglo videos for some of the worst bands of the 90s including Sugar Ray, Smash Mouth, and The Offspring. He made a huge feature splash with the first – and still somewhat enjoyable – Charlie’s Angels movie, and then went on to do … Continue reading

HE’S GOT A TICKET TO SUCK

I laid into Ice Cube a little while back for co-signing ridiculously low brow fare for so-called urban audiences in the form of a screen adaptation of yet another “chitlin’ play.” But it appears that he’s about to get some company on my shitlist as today brings news of another stupid ‘hood comedy that has … Continue reading
