  • More good news about “I Robot

    This featurette about “I Robot” is very reassuring in several ways: * The director of the movie is Alex Proyas, who made the impressive and deep film “Dark City”, one of my personal faves. * Proyas insists he’s trying to stay away from the “Hollywoodized” movie. Considering this sure looks like a frenzied action film…

  • Hellboy missing a scene in your theater?

    In his review of “Hellboy”, Roger Ebert made a note of a scene transition that made absolutely no sense. Now he’s found out why it made no sense. There is a scene that goes dark at the end of a reel and many theaters mistakenly take it to be the end of the reel, thus…

  • The last Romijn-Stamos movie?

    Rebecca Romijn still goes by that name in the new movie Godsend…which looks like an intense film, by the way. But why does it say that this movie is coming out in 1969?

  • “I crashed my van into Jesus!

    No sooner do I say that “nose boogies” is the most memorable trailer line of the year than I watch the trailer for Saved!, a new movie with Mandy Moore and Macauley Culkin. It certainly looks like a unique film.

  • “Who is gonna check my nose boogies for infections?

    I have no idea how good the actual movie “Raising Helen” is going to be, but I have to give them credit for one of the most memorable trailer lines I’ve heard in a while.

  • New “I, Robot” trailer

    Just what the title says. There is a new online exclusive trailer for I, Robot.

  • So bad they won’t waste bandwidth on it

    I’m beginning to pick up on something: when a movie looks like a stinker, the studio doesn’t spend a lot of server space promoting it. This ad for Disney’s “Around The World In 80 Days” is so tiny I can barely make it out, and maybe that’s because the parts I can see look incredibly…

  • Kill Bill Volume THREE?

    Quentin Tarrantino is thinking of making a third installment of ‘Kill Bill’ in about 15 years, in which the daughter of Vivica Fox’s character hunts down her mother’s killer. THANKS, Quentin, for spoiling the outcome of that fight for all of us who were waiting until Tuesday to see the movie on DVD, ya cultural-referencing…

  • Jonathan Frakes strikes again

    On the heels of “Clockstoppers”, Jonathan “Commander Riker” Frakes has directed a second kid-friendly PG feature filled with action and SFX: Thunderbirds.

  • Trailer overload!

    With all the major summer movies coming soon, we’re going to be overwhelmed with more and more awesome trailers. Just in the last day, first Spider-Man 2 (which Eric linked below), and now Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
