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

THE ZODIAC CLIPS!

Not to be confused with David Fincher’s telling of the serial killer’s grim escapades (that one’s slated for release later this year, but knowing Fincher, I wouldn’t count on it), The Zodiac instead is an effort put together by brothers Kelley and Alexander Bulkley (the latter of which is also at the helm) with thespian … Continue reading

EVERYONE HATES AMERICA

Art imitates life, and since most of the world seems to have developed a strong disdain for the good ol’ US of A, this is being reflected in our movies. Sony and producer Neal Moritz, who only acknowledges concepts that are really high (Stealth, Torque, XXX, etc.), have grabbed an action flick pitch called Minutemen. … Continue reading

ELI ROTH MEETS STEPHEN KING

Although I’m pretty disenchanted with Stephen King’s work (I maintain that the Bachman stuff and short story collections are his best), I’ve been told Cell is worth reading for the carnage and the fact that it’s set in and around my hometown of Boston. Now I don’t have to bother with all that reading nonsense! … Continue reading

DAILY GRABOID 3.8.06

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

EXCLUSIVE: SILENT HILL PIC!

Movies based on videogames. Usually not so hot, right? Brotherhood of the Wolf director Christophe Gans seems hellbent on disproving that with Silent Hill. So far they studio is doing a fine job of generating interest (even though I’m still all a-scared) with a very spooky trailer and some downright disturbing early images, like the exclusive freakshow … Continue reading

ALL THAT DRAMA WITH PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN

Philip Seymour Hoffman isn’t one of those cats who wins an award and then tells reporters "Golly, I don’t have anything lined up next!". Because that just would be a flat-out fib. And Hoffman’s pants are not, repeat NOT, on fire. Yes, a mere two days after being handed Oscar gold for his impersonation (let’s … Continue reading

CATCHING STARDUST

Aside from a couple of his Death comics (and the long-missing Miracleman), I never really got into writer Neil Gaiman’s brand of diet-Goth grownup fairy tales. But I’m curious about the adaptation of Gaiman’s book Stardust, mostly because it’s Matthew Vaughn’s sophomore directing effort. Considering his confident work on his gangster debut Layer Cake, I would’ve … Continue reading

DAILY GRABOID 3.7.06

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.

TRAILER: X-MEN 3

I’ve gotta hand it to the marketing department at Fox. Or at least the people who assembled the trailer for X-Men 3 (which I still refuse to call The Last Stand) — they’ve certainly got their act together more than whatever misled souls have been unleashing those abominable publicity photos onto the internets. Now, we’ve … Continue reading
