Not only is Clint Eastwood a superb director, but he is a hard worker. Seriously, the guy has been going non-stop with award-winning films since 2003 and Mystic River, which, I should add, he followed-up with Million Dollar Baby, Flags of Our Fathers, Letters from Iwo Jima, Changeling, Gran Torino, Invictus and, due in 2010, Hereafter. With the exception of Hereafter, I dare you to argue that any one of those movies isn’t nothing short of stellar. You can’t. And …

Oh, Nelly! Twihards are going to poop their pants over this news! Not only will fans of Edward Furrybrows, Jacob Wolfsack and Bella Sadpants be able to swoon and lust over their Stephanie Meyer-created crazy characters, but – BUT – they’ll be able to get their fix while watching The Twilight Saga: Eclipse on the very, very, very big screen of IMAX. Holy cuss! The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is directed by David Slade (30 Days of Night, Hard Candy) and …
You know, for a movie I still think is going to suck the sweat off a dead man’s gut sack, this Tron Legacy poster is pretty sweet. The movie opens on December 10, 2010 and is directed by Joseph Kosinski. That’s not a household name to anyone but Joseph’s mother, but Halo fans might get a nerdgasm to learn he was the director of the “Starry Night” commercial that aired back in December 2006. This is Kosinski’s first feature film. …
I like Michael Cera and thought he was fantastic in Superbad and Juno, but he’s starting to wear thin with the same-old song and dance in Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist, Year One and even the hybrid-documentary, Paper Heart. That’s not an all-out, in-your-face criticism because life as a comedic actor is tough. It’s hard to branch out and keep the fans and critics happy, just ask Jim Carrey and Will Ferrel. I’m hoping Youth in Revolt – due in …
Forget the special effects, Robert Downey Jr., Don Cheadle, Gwyneth Paltrow and Mickey Rourke. Forget that Iron Man was the best comic book movie not named Batman Begins or The Dark Knight to hit theaters since Spider-Man 2. If you need three sexy reasons to see Iron Man 2 on May 7, 2010, just check out Scarlett Johansson’s snapshots below. She plays Natasha Romanoff, a.k.a. Black Widow. All I can say is Ryan Reynolds is one lucky bastard.
I’d be interested to see what Frank Oz (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, What About Bob?) thinks about his 2007 British comedy, Death at a Funeral, being remade into a Tyler Perry-ized, Chris Rock and Martin Lawrence-starring comedy due in theaters on April 16, 2010. I can’t imagine he is super-hyped; I know I wasn’t when I saw the announcement last March. However, I will say this: After watching the trailer, even with my loathing of Lawrence, this remake could be pretty …
Looks like the New Moon love affair, a pasty and depressing one at that, is over and people – families – are moving on to more uplifting entertainment. Yes, after three weeks at number one, The Twilight Saga: New Moon was booted from the box office top spot by The Blind Side, the true-to-life story of Baltimore Raven’s offensive lineman, Michael Oher and how he was taken in and loved by Tuhoy family. Sandra Bullock (The Proposal) stars as Leigh …
Meh. Yawn. Sigh. Perhaps this 55 second teaser trailer for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will give Potterites chills and tingles, but it didn’t do squat for me. Frankly, this could have been spliced together from bits and pieces of the last few Potter films and I wouldn’t know the difference, that’s how bland and vanilla this preview tastes to me. This was not a teaser. And what about timing? Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is split into …
