While my sweet tooth has long kept me in the realm of rum (and syrupy flavored vodka), I’ve begun partaking of the grape in my more recent years.

If you read to the end of my exclusive interview with Talladega Nights director Adam McKay y you’ll see that we briefly discuss his next project, a movie that will reteam Will Ferrell and John C Reilly, a duo who show a ton of chemistry in their new movie. Adam couldn’t spill much about the … Continue reading
Two weeks ago I sat down with Guillermo Del Toro for a very long interview (which should be hitting CHUD next week!), and one of the topics that came up was how often his projects come and go. He’s pretty zen about it, figuring that with patience and his hard work it all works itself … Continue reading

But rather than be greeted with the expected compound fractures at the bottom, his … Continue reading
John McClane is dusting off his Beretta and coming out of retirement for a fourth Die Hard, and though it’s been over a decade since he last shot holes through Euro-thieves, Fox is hoping the rickety, irascible cop will provide a sufficient challenge to Autobots and Decepticons – the movie is already scheduled for June … Continue reading
