May 2007 is going to be the Wrestlemania of major 21st century franchises. In that one month we’re getting Shrek 3, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and Spider-Man 3. Each of these films would be expected to be the #1 movie of the year in which they’re released, and now they’re all coming out with … Continue reading
After much-publicized problems with the location shoot (the university they were using didn’t want to be associated with the film after all), the remake of Revenge of the Nerds has been shut down by Fox Atomic. Nooo! First New Line shafts Peter Jackson and now this! It’s a bad week to be a guy who … Continue reading
The first two questions in this one on one interview come from… a round table. I know, I know. The two things are completely the opposite. But here’s what happened: I flew to LA two weekends ago for the junket for The Fountain, and I was guaranteed a one on one with Darren Aronofsky. He’s … Continue reading

For this third feature, Darren Aronofsky has created a subtle, potent poem about grace, resonance and death. Recently re-rated from R to PG-13, with a few small alterations, Aronofsky passed … Continue reading

I get a lot of email from publicist types that I ignore. Often it’s someone pushing a product that they want to tie into a new movie or TV show – they’ll “pitch” me editorial ideas.
