Everyone knows New Line has a history of not paying what’s owed. Hell, it was only this last December that Peter Jackson received his rightful share of the Lord of the Rings trilogy earnings. While that was pretty bad, it wasn’t the first time a director had their portions withheld until someone ordered them paid.

Martin Scorcese seems to be aiming high when it comes to his musician documentaries. He’s already done a great job with Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones, and now he turns his directorial ideas towards the Rastaman himself, Bob Marley. There’s really no information about the project (other than it’s tentatively penned for a release […]

Not technically movie news per say, but this is just so absurd I had to mention it. As some people may know, I’ve been looking forward to the remake of the ol’ Knight Rider show — especially with my man GOB on board as the voice of KITT. Sadly, that’s no more, as Val Kilmer […]

According to The Big Picture, Marvel looks to be working on a feature film for every Hot Topic shopper’s favorite comic villain, Venom. Despite the fact that Spider-Man 3 was horrid (and made Spider-Man seem too much like geeky John Travolta) they’re going through this with. Why? I have no idea. The question is will […]

What the hell? Is this the apocalypse? Last weekend Meet the Spartans was the number one movie in America. Now, that damn Hannah Montana theater concert thing is sitting at 82% on Rotten Tomatoes.
If this somehow ends up being the number one movie in America (which would be astounding considered its limited release), I think […]

Way to go, Variety, confirming that there’s most likely going to be a Cloverfield sequel. Who could have possibly guessed that? According to the Wonder Sleuth, Matt Reeves (the guy who directed the people directing the movie via their handcams) is working on a deal with Paramount to get the Cloverfield sequel underway. No word […]

Sometimes you just can’t make this shit up. Joss Whedon — who made a career off of casting shows and movies with hot women kicking ass — has come out against the cult classic Weird Science because he “finds it offensive” that it objectifies women that way. Teapot, kettle, etc.
On the last installment of the […]
