Here’s a baby I’ve been anticipating for quite some time. Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride is the follow up to his (and I can’t NOT mention Henry Selick) first stop-motion masterpiece, The Nightmare Before Christmas. Oddly enough, the film is loosely based on a 19th century Russian folktale which is supposedly built on the historical fact … Continue reading
Fantastic Four, when your trailers are pretty much the bottom rung of trailerdom, you’ve got yourself a bit of a problem. Even the inclusion of the TRUE human torch, Jessica Alba (you know, ’cause she’s hot), may not be enough to salvage this one. This new trailer starts off alright, but about a third in, … Continue reading
Casting for the remake of Wes Craven’s classic The Hills Have Eyes has pretty much finished, and director Alexadre Aja (the fine hand behind High Tension, a movie I guess only I liked) has gotten himself some pretty good people. In the interest of it being 2 AM by me and I am sleepy, here … Continue reading
Tom Hanks’ Playtone and Universal Pictures have bought the life rights to Mark Felt and his family. You may recall that Felt was the stunningly disappointing person behind the Deep Throat monicker, the guy whose inside info led to the breaking of the Watergate scandal and the fall of the Nixon Administration. Hanks and friends have bought … Continue reading
Who do you look for as a director when you’re remaking the family classic Swiss Family Robinson? If you’re Disney you go right for the dude who directed T3 and U-571, Jonathan Mostow. It seems like a weird choice to me, but then again no one thought that Scorsese had a women’s film in him … Continue reading
It’s a big reunion for Felicity creator JJ Abrams and his star Keri Russell – she’s going to be appearing in the "It’s seriously happening even though Tom Cruise has apparently completely lost his mind" Mission: Impossible 3. Tiny skinny Russell is taking the role once earmarked for curvy, pneumatic Scarlett Johansson, a young spy … Continue reading

I don’t know how I feel about the poker craze. While I like the game a lot and think that anything having to do with Rounders (my review) is brilliant, I get very tired of seeing out of shape people in headphones and under sunglasses acting all tough and feel that the celebrity they gain … Continue reading

(From the Pulp Crime stories) Dirk grasped his right hand and slowly flexed it back to life. The pain surged through each finger intensely, transforming each joint into a fireball that throbbed with each movement. It hurt like a son-of-a-bitch and Dirk wondered if he had finally broken the damn thing. At least he was … Continue reading
