Winston Zeddemore Is THE Ghostbuster

I know, I know. You’re mad. BUT HEAR ME OUT. This is a “what if” scenario.” Of course, “Yes it’s true…this man has no dick” will always have a mansion in my heart, but after all this Ghostbuster game talk I went back and watched the film’s original trailer on the youtubes. I couldn’t help [...]

Pics from NY Comic-Con featuring shots of "Ghostbusters" Game

I came out to New York to enjoy Comic-Con, unseasonable warmth and an odd number of its citizens yelling at people on their cell phones. Seriously. I’ve seen this multiple times so far. I guess times are making people cranky and also unaware that their phones don’t provide a privacy bubble when in use. My [...]

Rob Zombie Taps The Nerdist for "Halloween 2" Cast

“…but there was already a Halloween II,” a film nerd would say. Yes, yes we all know that. This is the sequel to Rob Zombie’s Halloween Remake from 2007 which hopefully will be out later this year. As the news has popped up on Rob’s blog, I suppose it’s okay to further spill the horror [...]

Distant-future-VH1-star Zac Efron will star in the unnecessary remake of the 1984 film Footloose, a movie about gay tolerance on a Hollywood backlot. Add this to the list of remakes that don’t need to happen with Bill & Ted, Short Circuit and a musical version of The Accused. When posed with the question, “Why not [...]

Original "Ghostbusters" Trailer

For a movie that I have seen no less than fifty times, I’m surprised I had never seen the original trailer. Ghostbusters was the first film that floored me as a young teen. All of the elements that went into my seeing it had that rare kind of serendipity that almost never happens anymore, because [...]

Millions of Harry Potter Fans Are Petrificus Totalised That "Half-Blood Prince" Pushed to 2009

The title of this post is just one of the many poorly executed Harry Potter-themed jokes that will be circulating the Interwebs on the heels of this terrible, terrible news (Please feel free to come up with your own crappy Potterism headline for this crappity crap of Hollywood chain-yankery). Not since The Great Bigfoot [...]

A Celebratory Message From Rainn Wilson

I just received this email from my pal Rainn Wilson-
"DEAR FRIENDS AND FAMILY-
Wednesday, August 20th is a truly historic day.  It is Estonian
Independence day as well as the day when Sting wed his amazing wife,
the multi-talented and ravishing Ms. Trudy Skyler.
The best way I can think of to celebrate Estonian Independence and/or
Sting’s anniversary would be [...]

Dark Knight Follow-Up Rumors

Nice little chat with James Rocchi of Cinematical.com about The Dark Knight and Christopher Nolan’s plans for the next one, which hopefully include and even gravel-ier sounding Batman. In that case I recommend Kim Carnes or the late Selma Diamond to play the title role. Or even just gravel.
