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

REDIRTY REDOZEN

The Dirty Dozen is one of my all-time favorite movies evar. Seeing it on local UHF stations as a kid (on what seemed like a weekly basis) served as a gateway drug to several cinematic subgenres like war movies, “tough guy” flicks and “guys on a mission” stories. For those who have somehow never seen the … Continue reading

PIXAR RAT CATCHES BIRD

Now that Pixar is settled into their new (old) home at Disney, they’re firing up the hardware on new projects, but also wisely sticking with what works. Their latest rendered blockbuster Ratatouille has hooked director Brad Bird, who’s already a solid two-for-two with unquestionable animated masterpieces (that’d be Iron Giant and The Incredibles). It’s already … Continue reading

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

RIDDICK RETURNS?

As actual news, this is about as flimsy as Lindsay Lohan’s career potential outside the porn industry, but since I’m a shameless fan of the Riddick franchise and confess to Diesel manlove, I figure this bears regurgitation. Coming Soon recently chatted with Vin about his curiously coifed courtroom comedrama Find Me Guilty, and the topic … Continue reading

A ROOM WITH A CUSACK

It’s been a productive week for Stephen King (and it’s a good thing, I’m sure he’s probably hurting for cash), with two new movies based on his work hurtling toward production. Dare we hope they’re on the quality level of The Mangler? Let us dare. While Eli Roth dials up Cell, John Cusack has checked himself into … Continue reading

WRITERS SUCKED INTO BLACK HOLE

Considering director Alexandre Aja confirmed it to Devin several days ago (the resulting interview is HERE), this isn’t exactly fresh news, but its appearance in the trades makes it as official as it can get: Paramount’s upcoming adaptation of Charles Burns’ graphic novel Black Hole is being penned by not one but two high-profile writers, … Continue reading
