Red Sonja details

Posted 18 years ago

We know that Rose McGowan will be slipping into the chainmail bikini of flame-haired warrior RED SONJA, but things have been relatively quiet on the Robert Rodriguez-produced project ever since Comic Con. Now more details of the story have emerged...

Twilight already huge

Posted 18 years ago

I’ll be honest: I don’t really understand the appeal of TWILIGHT (and I’m betting a lot of you readers don’t either), but I certainly recognize its phenomenon. The movie’s release shifted to fill the slot vacated by fellow teen-fantasy property...

Crossing Over trailer

Posted 18 years ago

The drama CROSSING OVER seemed poised for an Oscar push. With a hot-button topic (immigration), winding multi-perspective narrative and high-profile cast (Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta), it was clearly aiming for the same hearts and minds at the Academy that deemed...

The sci-fi focused site io9 got a look at some seemingly legit concept art for various models of machinery we’ll see being dismantled by John Connor and company in McG’s scorched future TERMINATOR SALVATION. The designs seem to jibe with...

New Kirk/Spock pics

Posted 18 years ago

Seems like the buzz is slowly building for next summer’s STAR TREK relaunch, although I’m not sure how much additional excitement will be provided by black-and-white close-ups of the two main characters’ slightly abnormal craniums.Where’s the Uhura hotness? Space babes...

Morricone Basterds?

Posted 18 years ago

With his “guys on a mission” epic INGLORIOUS BASTARDS set at the height of WWII, it’s not like filmmaker Quentin Tarantino can flip through his undoubtedly expansive LP collection seeking obscure rock/pop/soul gems to pepper his soundtrack. How about a...
