If you saw X-men Origins: Wolverine, you’ll remember fan-favorite character Deadpool as played by Ryan Reynolds, the wise-crackin’ mercenary who leaves his victims all dead and stuff, but with a smile on their faces. If you stuck around* through the end-credits , you’d know there might be some surprises in store for Deadpool… and Variety has reported that indeed there are. Apparently, one of the reasons Ryan Reynolds was given the role was to spin it off into its own …

Boobies, boobies, boobies, boobies, boobieeeeeeeeeees!! If you were waiting to get your sci-fi boobie fix from Robert Rodriguez’ Barbarella remake, you’ll have to go back to your Heavy Metal magazines and Jason X. Barbarella‘s been canceled. Hallelujah. If you’re unfamiliar with the whole Barbarella mystere, it was a free-lovin’ sci-fi farce starring Jane Fonda back when she was the hawtness in 1968. Out to save the galaxy, the movie’s really an excuse to have Barbarella get it on across the …
It’s a new Inglorious Basterds character poster, this time with some feminine mystique… …and by mystique I mean Diane Kruger’s wooden acting (Troy!) and bad English accent (National Treasures!). Luckily, she can stick to her native German in this one as she spies for the allies in her role as Bridget Von Hammersmark– a Nazi fan-favorite actress. Apparently, the Nazis tastes in actresses was as bad as their politics. I have a feeling we’ll be posting a few more of …
So I’m really not trying to double post on upcoming films, but when there’s news, there’s news. And this is at least interesting… right? Right. So a week or so ago we posted the trailer for the Neill Blomkamp directed, Peter Jackson produced District 9. There’s now an updated trailer– the whole thing is is the same, but now you’re be able to see the alien (no privacy pixels) and read a subtitled translation. Apparently, this is part of a …
I saw this posted over at The Movie Blog and had to post it here, as well. It’s from The Onion which has 100 percent better news than anything blaring on the “real” news right now. Anyhow, enjoy the clip below and happy Cinco de Mayo! Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As ‘Fun, Watchable’
Yawn. So MTV just announced the nominees for its largely pathetic annual movie marketing awards show. No big surprise here – “Twilight” racked up seven nominations, including Best Actress Who Really is a Huge Pothead and Shiny Skin My Butt Award (also known as the OMG! You Pasty Bastard! Award). I kid, of course, but really, that’s about how credible MTV’s golden popcorn trophies are in the realm of cinema. The only thing remotely good about the MTV Movie Awards …
“My Sister’s Keeper” hits theaters on June 26th and I’m a little ashamed to admit I completely missed this release while writing my Summer Movie Preview. I’m intrigued to say the least, but also befuddled at the absolute lack of vision on the part of the studio. Really, New Line Cinema – this is a summer release? You’re telling me a drama about a genetically engineered little girl who sues her parents in order to gain control over her body, …
We keep saying it, but that’s only because it’s true: May is unleashing a whirlwind of cinematic fury– intent on booking your Fridays, bank account and eyeballs all month long. Between Wolverine, Star Trek, Angels & Demons, Terminator: Salvation and Up, May has a lineup hard-pressed to be reckoned with. As Up is at the tail-end of the month and the general public doesn’t know much about it beyond a boy scout, an old codger and a sky full of …
