Posted 19 years ago

After a few decidedly suspicious choices (ANALYZE THAT, MEET THE FOCKERS, HIDE AND SEEK), veteran thespian Robert DeNiro seems back on track with movies like STARDUST, WHAT JUST HAPPENED?, and the much-anticipated decision to reunite with Martin Scorsese. Apparently Bobby...

Kids are getting Grimm

Posted 19 years ago

With the HARRY POTTER movies still making magic money, and things like NARNIA stuffing plenty of producers’ pockets, everyone is actively seeking their very own financially fulfilling fantasy franchise. The kids book series THE SISTERS GRIMM is currently on the...

Posted 19 years ago

David Goyer was apparently so successful making someone disappear with his recent remake THE INVISIBLE, he’s going to attempt another transparent human. Nope, not another HOLLOW MAN sequel (sorry, Peter Facinelli), but THE INVISIBLE MAN. It’s like THE INVISIBLE all...
