We were far from any ocean, but there we were, talking to a U-Boat commander. Jürgen Prochnow, star of Das Boot (and many other… fascinating films, like Wing Commander and House of the Dead), was dolled up in his beermeister outfit, chatting with the assembled web journalists on the set of Beerfest, the latest film … Continue reading
Take a moment and think of all the movies that could be improved by the inclusion of tentacles. Hell, I’d even tolerate another Big Momma’s House sequel if it featured random victims being invaded by slimy hidden appendages (I mean, these people are already in a Martin Lawrence fat-suit movie, so any further humiliation seems … Continue reading
It’s not that I’m particularly apathetic, but my only real emotional response to the end of Brokeback Mountain was “Damn, his daughter is seriously cute”. We’ll be seeing more of adorable actress Kate Mara soon — having survived the Urban Legends “franchise”, she makes the move to more ballistic fare with Shooter, Paramount’s adaptation of … 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.

I mean, after all that time in the barren desert wastes helping the Mujahideen in the third movie, he’d probably just like some peace and quiet to kill things in the wilderness with his giant survival knife. But … Continue reading
As the site editor without a vowel at the end of my name, perhaps I’m not best suited to write about this announcement, but here it is anyway. Straight from the headlines of about a week ago comes a movie called Mafia Cop. For the love of Chins, I wish it was another sequel to … Continue reading
Time once again to warm up the region-free DVD player and check the pre-order page at your favorite import reseller — the Weinsteins are apparently still searching for their own Crouching Tiger-sized hit, and the process they’re using to discover it is to acquire domestic rights to every Asian film that crosses their field of vision. … Continue reading
Even though the Dukes of Hazzard movie was a considerably painful viewing experience (Jessica Simpson’s upstanding bosom and outstanding buttocks notwithstanding), it was apparently lucrative enough to provide director Jay Chandrasekhar with more opportunities. The Dukes’ solid box office performance secured a Warner Bros. deal for the de facto leader of comedy quintet Broken Lizard, … Continue reading
