Clive Owen’s a pimp

Posted 18 years ago

I still haven’t seen Ricky Gervais’ EXTRAS Christmas special, but I hear it’s a heartbreaker. EXTRAS is a terrific series, but I’m not sure it deserved best comedy at the Golden Globes over the brilliant 30 ROCK. But then again...

New Iron Man pics

Posted 18 years ago

The difference between the marketing campaigns of this summer’s two biggest comic book movies (sorry HULK) is worlds apart. The TDK people are mailing out birthday cakes with cell phones baked into the middle, while the IRON MAN crew are...

The Wackness poster

Posted 18 years ago

I was pretty stunned to see the following poster, since THE WACKNESS is what me and the girls call K-Fed. The second I saw this online I straddled my Blackberry, texted Britt, Allison, Misha, and Kenzie, then posted it on...

Bank Job poster

Posted 18 years ago

It’s obvious what kind of vibe the designer for THE BANK JOB poster was going for—a ‘young trenchcoated mutton-chopped Gene Hackman on a cold November day in Yonkers’ type of vibe. In others they were going for a 70s look....

The movies of ’07

Posted 18 years ago

Speed’s rival car

Posted 18 years ago

Here’s our first look at the car that Speed will be racing against in this summer’s SPEED RACER, and it looks demonic. An auto blog called Rocket Punch snapped up some shots of the ride at a convention in Tokyo,...

88 Minutes poster

Posted 18 years ago

The upcoming Al Pacino movie 88 MINUTES has a runtime of 110 minutes according to imdb.com. But the movie’s plot deals with Pacino’s character—a professor moonlighting as an FBI forensics psychologist—receiving a death threat claiming he has only 88 minutes...

Star Trek teaser

Posted 18 years ago

I don’t want to psych anyone out here (I do too much of that) but what you’re about to see is a stunning piece of fan-art. I’ve been witness to handful of fan-made trailers—most recently for THE DARK KNIGHT—and they’ve...

Paranoid poster

Posted 18 years ago

I spend terrifying nights, awake and alone, scribbling endless looping calculations, all in the hopes of discovering why Gus Van Sant made FINDING FORRESTER and GOOD WILL HUNTING. Not that they’re bad films, but that they just don’t fit in...

Amusement trailer

Posted 18 years ago

Here’s a trailer for a movie called AMUSEMENT, and if it weren’t for the little description over at Apple Trailers, I’d have no idea what it was about. Now that I think of it, even with the description I don’t...
