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

MEN IN MEADOW

Doris Burn’s inspirational and whimsical illustrated tale Andrew Henry’s Meadow was one of my favorite books as a young spud, so the news that the guy who made Wild Wild West is turning it into a movie makes my brain bleed a little. Barry Sonnenfeld, who by my count has directed one exceptional film (that’d … Continue reading

I AM NOT A NUMBER, I AM A REMAKE!

Now this is bound to send fans of the 60s BBC TV show The Prisoner right off their trolley, including the various Hollywood people who have long been attempting to condense the open-ended 17-episode series in a cogent two-hour film. But the show is instead rematerializing once more on British TV — Sky One is prepping a … 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.

Regardless, the original unaltered, un-enhanced Star Wars movies will be coming to DVD this … Continue reading

Recently we visited set of his new film, Unaccompanied Minors, which is currently filming in Salt Lake City, UT. The story, … Continue reading

INSIDE IRON MAN’S ARMOR

Just the other day we got the rather exciting news that actor, filmmaker and Matt Murdock buddy Jon Favreau will be tuning up the machinery for Marvel and Paramount’s Iron Man movie. To stay that much closer to the fans (but still with the relative comfort buffer of data), Favreau is chewing a zeitgeist bite … Continue reading
