My brother asked me today who I felt would make a good female lead for the upcoming The Thing prequel, and I admit I have a hard time coming up with a realistic response. Kate Lloyd is “In her late 20s to early 30s, pretty, bright-eyed, intelligent, she’s a graduate of Columbia and a Ph.D. […]
Yes folks, confirming the long standing rumors, Ivan Reitman has confirmed that he will indeed return, after 21 years, to the Ghostbusters franchise to direct part III. Apparently, the second draft of the script is being worked on (you’d think after 20 years the friggin’ script would be done), with filming slated to start next […]
I wanna like this trailer. I mean, I really like director Joe Carnahan (Narc, Smokin Aces) and think he’s done some visually stunning movies that happen to just not be terribly well written. Of course, none of those movies has a parachuting tank shooting at enemy aircraft, which most certainly probably would have helped their […]
Yesterday was a pretty crazy day on the internets, but while everyone was yelling about the Spider-Man movie reboot (which we’ll get to in a minute), there was another bit of drama brewing at the offices of IDW and Dark Horse, the publishers of the “in-continuity” Angel and Buffy The Vampire Slayer series, respectively. See, […]
After hitting critical success with their film Undead, The Spierig Brothers were given not only more money to play with, but an all-star Hollywood cast to fill their toy box. The result? Daybreakers, a semi-apocalyptic vampire flick that tells the story of a world where humans are an endangered species, and the world’s vampire population […]
You remember Keli? She made a guest appearance on Funnybooks a few weeks ago? Comic geek? LARPer? Well, in episode 6 of The Variants, Keli has to pull a fast one!
Smallville: Absolute Justice airs Friday, February 5th at 8 PM on the CW, and why should you watch it? Well, it’s a 2-hour Smallville movie written by Geoff Johns, and has the Justice Society of America! Even if you don’t watch Smallville, seeing Dr. Fate, Hawkman, Stargirl, and Sandman in live-action should be enough of […]
I worked at a local movie theater (AMC 24 in Hampton, Virginia) when the original Strangeland came out back in 1998 (damn, that long ago?). I remember looking really forward to seeing this indy horror flick we were getting at the theater (which, unlike now, wasn’t quite such a common occurrence 12 years ago), and […]
What the hell, Danny Boyle? Quick jerkin’ us around and give us 28 Months Later! Or 28 Years Later, or whatever. Or direct the remake of The Thing that they’ve got goin’ on – that would be something wouldn’t it? I know I’d pay to see Boyle do something involving monsters, zombies, or space something […]
As if having Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Eric Roberts, Randy Couture, Steve Austin, Terry Crews, Mickey Rourke, Brittany Murphy, Danny Trejo, (gasp for breath) Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, and Charisma Carpenter wasn’t enough for you already! Apparently, Stallone broke his frickin’ neck while filming a fight scene with Stone Cold Steve […]
