Movie News

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

BECKINSALE IS WONDER WOMAN!

The other day, the kerrazy cats over at JoBlo got official word that the lovely Kate Beckinsale would be wearing the tiara and bulletproof bracelets for Joss Whedon’s Wonder Woman movie. And even though it was a complete fabrication (nice one, guys!), the word spread ‘round the globe at the speed of broadband. IMDB news, … Continue reading

KING’S KID KILLS

Warner Bros. has grabbed the rights to an upcoming book called Heart Shaped Box, the first full-length novel from a writer named Joe Hill. But Joe has what some might consider an unfair advantage – his real name is Joseph Hillstrom King, and his father is the most lucrative author in the history of written … Continue reading

THE FUZZ IS HEATING UP!

UPDATE! A new behind-the-scenes vidblog from the guys has been uploaded, featuring more shirtless Nick Frost than you can handle (seriously)! Check it HERE! We’re rather shameless when it comes to hyping the upcoming output of certain filmmakers (which seems inversely proportional to their box office figures), and Shaun of the Dead triumvirate Edgar Wright, … Continue reading

JUMPING THE SHARKY

Warner Bros. has found a guy to help bring back the mustachioed machismo of the 80s. No, not Magnum PI (yet) — director Phil Joanou will helm their remake of the gritty cop flick Sharky’s Machine. Based on a novel by William Diehl, the story follows a hardass vice detective who falls for an expensive … Continue reading

DAILY GRABOID 4.6.06

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

3X X3

Give the people who cut the trailers and TV ads for X3 an Oscar right now. I know too much about what has been going on behind the scenes of this film to hold a reasonable hope for it (I do hold an unreasonable one, however), but the trailers – and now the three new … Continue reading

GRIND HOUSING TO A HALT?

Reports are hitting the internet that Grind House has shut down production due to cost overruns and schedule problems. Grind House is one of my more anticipated films – it teams Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez in an homage to 1970s exploitation films. Each director is working on a short film that’s supposed to be … Continue reading

THE GOSSIP GARGOYLES

This morning I read that Brad Pitt is unhappy in his new home in Paris. We know this because the guy at his local coffee shop says so. Putting aside any issues of client/barista privilege, why exactly do we care if Brad Pitt loves his new place or not? I don’t even care if my … Continue reading
