Another time for Troll

Posted 19 years ago

Old, new, foreign, good, bad… Hollywood doesn’t care, they’ll remake any damn movie. Especially bad ones. Even TROLL. Yep, Bloody Disgusting says an update of the 1986 crap classic is in the works, and with a “substantial budget”. Perhaps that...

Five Killers teaser

Posted 19 years ago

I have to admit I don’t have a lot of interest or patience for anime in general. Too much of it just comes across as painfully ponderous, or zany and inscrutable for the sake of it. I’m intrigued by THE...

Avatar beats Monsters

Posted 19 years ago

As previously reported, it seemed as though when 2009 arrives, we’d be looking at two huge new 3-D releases scheduled on the same day. AVATAR, the massively anticipated new sci-fi epic from James Cameron has won the coveted Memorial Day...

Megan Fox in Half?

Posted 19 years ago

UPDATE: Shock Til You Drop is reporting that Megan Fox will NOT be in this flick after all. Still, a good excuse for an article about a Fox… I’m fairly sure that TRANSFORMERS had a bunch of big robots chasing...

Two-Face or not?

Posted 19 years ago

We know for certain that Gotham City DA Harvey Dent is on the character roster for THE DARK KNIGHT, but there’s been plenty of online murmur and speculation whether his uglier cantankerous side would also appear, or if this film...

Spielberg on Trial

Posted 19 years ago

I have immense admiration for Steven Spielberg — the guy has more than proven his skill with any kind of material, and there aren’t many directors who can maintain that constant flexibility over a thirty-year career. And while his more...

Mandy Lane later?

Posted 19 years ago

As I’ve pointed out in the past, it seems like Dimension and the Weinsteins don’t really care much about the sort of genre material that helped them climb to the top. There’s a pretty good chance that if you saw...
