Awesome Re-Defined: Uwe Boll vs. Michael Bay Throwdown

I can’t be sure, but I’m pretty certain I’m developing something of a man crush on German director Uwe Boll. I used to hate the guy, like all of fandom, based on the fact that every one of his movies I’ve seen, I’ve hated. And of course, when all of fandom tells you that you [...]

Is John Cusack a Douche? You Decide.

Wow, who would have thunk it: an actor who plays mostly good guys on the big screen turns out to be not so much in real life? Someone call the “Duh Police”! But seriously. Apparently John Cusack is a bit of a douche bag, at least according to Australian actor turned writer Paul Leyden, who [...]

Michael Bay is Not so Awesome Anymore?

Like the guys over at Film School Rejects, I’ve always been a fan of Michael Bay, despite all the bitching people usually do about his style over substance, etc etc. The way I see it, you either like the man’s movies, or you don’t go see them. What’s there to complain about? In any case, [...]

Two Reasons why Uwe Boll is Kinda Awesome

You can’t be a self-respecting fanboy out there in the Interwebs if you don’t proclaim your utter hatred and disdain for Uwe Boll and his movies, and to be sure, his movies are pretty reekish, but let’s face it, much of the hatred directed at this guy is just plain silly. For instance, how could [...]

Uwe Boll: I’m a Genius, Assholes

I love Uwe Boll. Have I mentioned that before? Seriously, this guy makes some of the most horrendous movies in cinematic history, and yet you KNOW that he knows it, and the fact that he can roll with the punches (literally, in one case) is one of the reasons why I just can’t summon up [...]

Mike Myers to Host 2008 MTV Movie Awards

Canuck funnyman Mike Myers (pictured, left) has landed the gig to host the 2008 MTV Movie Awards, Myers’ second go-around at the mostly pointless awards show. It used to be that no one showed up at the MTV Movie Awards unless the producers had told them they had already won beforehand, but not so much [...]

Uwe Boll: 1 Million Signatures and I Will Quit

I love Uwe Boll (pictured, left). Seriously, his movies are Godawful, we all know that, but I love the guy to death. His latest stunt to rile up fanboys everywhere involves him quitting the movie business for good, but only if all the fanboys out there who hates him manages to get 1 million signatures [...]

Charlton Heston Dead at Age 84

I’ve yet to see a movie starring Charlton Heston that I didn’t think was good. The man simply did not make a lot of bad movies. Sure, over the course of a lengthy career the likes of Heston’s, there are the inevitable bombs, flops, and just downright embarrassments. But to tell you the truth, right [...]

Tom Cruise Can Eat Planets

I don’t know who Miles Fisher is, but holy crap, if Tom Cruise ever needed someone to stand in for him during, say, an assassination or a repeat appearance on Oprah, he should give Fisher a call, because the guy’s impression of Tom Cruise is spot on. Check out this two-minute clip that showed up [...]

Steve Brill to Fanboys Fanboys: Up Yours, Biotch!

You know, I don’t even plan on seeing “Fanboys” (I’m not that big a Star Wars fan, even though I love sci-fi, but Star Wars just doesn’t do it for me), but man, this whole hullabaloo about what’s going on with the Weinsteins and the movie “Fanboys” (and their fanboys) — more details about the [...]

Michael Bay Likes to Blow Sh-t Up

You gotta love Michael Bay. I’m not in love with the guy or anything, but I dig his movies. Yes, even the Godawful “Bad Boys” films. As a movie watcher, you just gotta learn that not every movie requires the investment of, you know, deep thoughts. That’s Michael Bay’s movie in a nutshell. Best of [...]

English Patient Director Anthony Minghella Dead at 54

Anthony Minghella only had eight films to his credit in an eighteen year career, but he sure made the most of it. Counting among his credits were Oscar winners “The English Patient” and “Cold Mountain”.

Uwe Boll has Balls, Takes on Spielberg

You gotta give him credit, ol Uwe Boll has some serious balls hanging between those two German legs of his. While everyone and their momma is running away to avoid opening their movie opposite Spielberg and Lucas’ “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”, Boll has taken the other path, and is opening [...]

Demolition Man with Steven Seagal and Jean-Claude Van Damme!

Oh, what could have been. In an interview with MTV, Jean-Claude Van Damme revealed that back in his heyday, and that of a certain ponytailed one, he and Steven Seagal were supposed to star in the Warner Bros. action flick “Demolition Man”, which as we all know, starred Sylvester Stallone as a cop chasing psychopathic [...]

Gary Busey is Still Insane

Hey, kids, remember when Gary Busey wasn’t insane? Yeah, you’re right, who can remember that far back? Anyways, Gary Busey is kinda insane. If you didn’t already know that, these videos of Gary Busey going after Ryan Seacrest and Jennifer Garner (who has no idea who he is, by the way) at the Oscar red [...]

Whatever Happened to Mark Borchardt of American Movie?

Remember Mark Borchardt? The Midwestern amateur filmmaker featured in the documentary “American Movie”? He was the tall, lanky dude with the mustache (pictured with his best friend, Mike Schank). I really liked the documentary by Chris Smith about Mark trying to raise the money and make his low-budget short film “Coven”, even if the film [...]

Edison Chen is So F–ked Update: Retirement?

As much as I marvel at the insanity surrounding the Edison Chen sex scandal, I marvel more at the kid’s game. Again, you gotta consider the circumstances: a supporting actor, mildly okay looking, manages to not only land some of Hong Kong’s hottest starlets, but get them to agree to take pictures “in the act”, [...]

Lindsay Lohan Gets Nude for NYMag

Lindsay Lohan likes to drink, party, and make really bad movies that no one wants to see. And she’s only 21! Gee, she should have stuck to her teens, starring in movies like “Herbie Fully Loaded” and guest-starring on TV shows. With the Hollywood career already waning (did I mention the girl is only 21?), [...]
