If the new Comedy Revolution has a Rasputin, I think the case could be made that it’s Mike White, and not just for his ginormous wang. He’s worked with all the current major comedy factions, except maybe The State, and he’s almost always hilarious. Except when he’s being incredibly creepy, like in Chuck & Buck, … 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. Sometimes the Graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be … Continue reading
What needed a sequel even less than anything Eddie Murphy’s done in the last ten years? How about Basic Instinct? Sharon Stone will return to the role that made her famous (and infamous), the icepick-wielding, beaver-baring seductress Catherine Tramell, for the needless follow up that finds her playing mind games with a Scotland Yard shrink. … Continue reading
Want something different? How about an anime remade into a live-action film by Mexicans? Like sushi with salsa! Or a skirt-wearing schoolgirl with a sombrero! Either way, delicious. Directing team Jorge and Javier Aguilera, who are known collectively (and Orwellianly) as “Big Brother”, will helm a live-action remake of the Japanese anime Kite. The story … Continue reading

Albert Brooks films are like little treats. They come along every four or five years, and even when they’re not great, they’re worth seeing. If only more people would see them – I feel like Defending Your Life is the last Brooks film that was seen by anything approaching a wide audience. And I fear … Continue reading

Abel Ferrara’s early 90s crime flick King of New York is a great, nasty little slice that not only features Christopher Walken at his finest (“I never killed anybody who didn’t deserve it”) but also early appearances by a number of now-familiar faces: David Caruso, Laurence (then Larry) Fishburne, Harold Perrineau, Steve Buscemi, Giancarlo Esposito, … Continue reading
I’m going to base this conjecture solely on his previous film Brotherhood of the Wolf, but I’m gonna go ahead and assume that Christophe Gans’ first venture in the videogame-to-film genre will fare better than the similar efforts of Paul WS Anderson and Dr. Uwe Boll. Honestly, that’s a guess, though. Because Bloodrayne was fuckin’ … Continue reading
