Anne Hathaway Rumored to be Approached For a Part in Spider-Man 4
I don’t know if Felicia Hardy is going to be a villain in Spider-Man 4, but the rumors for a female part are so ubiqitous, Rachel McAdams and Julia Stiles having been rumored in as many days, that there must be some large role that necessitates the inclusion of a well-known actress. The rumors...

Jason Lee Directs Get Back
A lot of comedy actors are pretty dispensible, even if they are highly paid, but there was nobody better suited than Jason Lee to play Earl Hickey in My Name is Earl, at least when he dons the moustache.

Far Cry Trailer
I’m convinced that Uwe Boll will soon create a movie so bad that it will be like an unintentional Springtime for Hitler in real life. Unfortunately, Far Cry doesn’t look like that kind of movie. Instead, it looks far too generic. Uwe Boll must have really mailed this effort in, when he could...

The CW to Take Another Stab at Warren Ellis’ Global Frequency TV Show
I’ve read a lot of Warren Ellis’ comic book work, but I’ve never read his “Global Frequency”. Initially I thought this was the comic series “Planetary”, but apparently they are two separate works. In “Frequency”, a woman name Miranda Zero leads a...

Kevin McKidd Talks Rome and Modern Warfare 2 Movies
I guess it’s true what they say: you do learn something new everyday. For instance, I didn’t know former “Rome” star Kevin McKidd was the voice of Soap MacTavish in the “Modern Warfare 2″ game. Go figure. In any case, speaking to the New York Post, McKidd, who can...

With Rachel McAdams having already denied rumors that she was talking to producers of “Spider-Man 4″ to play Felicia Hardy aka The Black Cat in Sam Raimi’s latest Spidey film, the question remains: is the Black Cat really going to be in the movie, and if so, who will play her? According...

New Daybreakers PSA is Surprisingly Awesome

Latest and Greatest Trailer For Nine
When one considers old musicals, one would immediately think of An American in Paris or Singing in the Rain: slick talking characters who can also tap dance really well. Sometimes a musical like My Fair Lady would include a great story too. It’s a real difference from today’s frenetic, tightly...

Fight Club 10th Anniversary on Blu-Ray
David Fincher’s 1999 movie “Fight Club” is probably the least understood and least appreciated movies from the late ’90s. It’s a gem of a movie, and I loved the hell out of it when I first saw it in theaters. It was thrilling, it was new, it was insanely clever, and it made...

50 Cent and Val Kilmer Reteam for Jesse Terro’s The Gun
Did anyone besides myself watch the Eugene Hess scripted, Charles Winkler directed 50 Cent/Val Kilmer cop thriller “Streets of Blood?” Anyone? I didn’t think so. Although it wasn’t unbearable, it certainly wasn’t a memorable experience. According to Variety, 50 Cent and...
