New Joker Image from The Dark Knight
I don’t know who is running the marketing campaign for the latest “Batman Begins” sequel, aka “The Dark Knight”, but man, they’re really screwing it up something big time. First, there was that missed opportunity to do something big at the recent Comic Con, and now, with the film scheduled for Summer 2008, there are [...]

While Sam Raimi continues to play “come and get me, and don’t forget the brink truck” with the studios about returning to direct Spider-Man 4, the studio is already moving ahead with trying to bang out a script for the fourth installment in the arachnid knight’s neverending quest to whine about how great power means [...]

I don’t know a whole lot about Jonathan Rhys Meyers, only that I sometimes mistake him for Jonny Lee Miller. It’s not that they have exactly three names, both starting with the letter “J” and ending with last names that start with the letter “M”, but because they’re about the same age, look kinda the [...]

I still contend that as good as Angelina Jolie will end up being in the movie version of Mark Millar’s “Wanted”, she will never be as “perfect” for the role as Halle Berry would have been. Because let’s face it, if Millar and artist J. G. Jones weren’t modeling the Fox character after Halle [...]

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Green Lantern and his (almost) all-powerful ring is coming to a big screen near you.

Oh, Flash, will you EVER make it to the big screen? Well actually, Yes, he will, in the upcoming Justice League of America movie, that is. But apparently Warner Bros. likes the idea of spinning the Flash off into his own movie, as a sort of spin-off from the JLA movie — so the Flash, [...]

Another day, another unsubstantiated rumor regarding the Justice League of America movie. So what else is new? The latest is that Aussie actress Teresa Palmer has nabbed the role of Wonder Woman in the upcomign JLA. You know, I used to think that the movie itself would be epic when it finally gets made, but [...]

Steven C. Miller has been tapped to direct the movie version of the 2001 Image Comics comic book “Area 52″, says Variety. He’ll be working off a script by Jack Phillips for producers Chris Bender and JC Spink, whose Benderspink shingle, besides sounding a lot like something your mom told you not to do too [...]

Oh boy. Whoever it is at the studio that is orchestrating all these “leaks” of the Justice League scripts need a raise. They’ve got us Internet movie fanboys all in a twitter, running around with our heads stuck between our legs trying to “scoop” each other. A while ago, there was that script that Movie [...]

Let’s face it: Captain America gets no respect. Kids too “cool” for school shun his patriotic slant, and the comics killed the poor sap. (Well, as much as “killed” as you can get in a comic book, anyways.) So how could a Captain America movie even be possible in today’s Hollywood? A place where every [...]
