‘Southland Tales’ UK Movie Poster Revealed

October 15, 2007 by Michael

Southland Tales Poster

Well, we’ve already seen & more than likely hated the U.S. Southland Tales movie poster. Now take a look at the UK one-sheet poster that was recently revealed.

What do ya think? If you’re wondering why Seann William Scott is pictured twice, don’t worry, it’s not a mistake as Scott is actually taking on a couple of roles for the film.

All in all, though, this poster doesn’t make we want to rush out & go see this flick, what about you?

So, What’s Your Favorite Halloween Flick?

With my favorite holiday Halloween just around the corner, I thought I’d open a forum on what are the best spooky holiday flicks.

So, what do you think? What is your favorite Halloween movie? Are you a classic fan & go with the ever-entertaining Michael Meyers? Or are you more of a Jason or Freddy fan.

You tell me.

Warner Bros. says “No More Movies with Female Leads”

October 10, 2007 by Michael

Warner Bros president of production Jeff Robinov is a complete idiot. (Can you guess how I feel about this?) This fine gentlemen has decided (allegedly, now) that since Jodie Foster’s The Brave One, Emma Robert’s Nancy Drew, Hilary Swank’s The Reaping, and Nicole Kidman’s The Invasion fared poorly at the box office that Warner Bros. will no longer make films with women in the lead roles.

Update: Warner Bros has denied this, but I still feel it needs to be talked about…just to make sure we’re hitting home with how ridiculous this idea is.

Let’s address why those films might not have done so well:

The Brave One – With Jodie Foster coming off hits like Panic Room and Flight Plan, how could this one not be a hit? Oh yeah – maybe because no one has been going to Jodie Foster movies since Contact. On top of that, Jodie Foster’s core audience is largely female (can’t imagine why), and it might be – JUST MAYBE – that they don’t want to see a revenge picture. Maybe.

Nancy Drew
– Let’s see…did you see an ad for this thing? I didn’t. I had no idea a Nancy Drew movie even came out until I walked into the theater and it was playing. Obviously, I’m not the target audience, but Nancy Drew was released in the summer – I assume as counter programming – and that doesn’t always work. Why wasn’t this film released at a less crowded time? If it had been, a few people might have seen it.

Reaper and Invasion – I lump these two movies together because THEY WERE TERRIBLE! It’s not that the movies has female characters in them…it’s that they were bad movies.

NOTE TO WARNER BROS – STOP MAKING CRAP and PEOPLE WILL GO TO THE THEATER TO WATCH YOUR MOVIES!

That is all.

New ‘Bee Movie’ Poster Revealed

October 8, 2007 by Michael

I know how you’re almost too excited about the November 2 movie release, Bee Movie, but you’re just going to have to sit on your hands expectantly & wait until next month.

But I do at least have a little treat for you all the same, as a new Bee Movie poster has finally been revealed. Pretty hot, right? Jerry Seinfeld’s new Dreamworks film is leaving a lot to be desired, if you ask me.

I mean, “Honey just got funny”!!!? Is that even a stab at humor? Or was that more of a lazy attempt? I think I’m going to have to go with the latter.

Jim Broadbent Takes On Role Of Horace Slughorn In ‘Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince’

September 19, 2007 by Michael

Well, the Harry Potter news is starting to ramp up a bit. The newest news on the newsy street is that Academy Award winner Jim Broadbent will be taking on the role of Potions teacher Horace Slughorn in the upcoming film Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

In his own words, Broadbent gives us a little more to chew on, saying, “Who am I? He’s called Horace Slughorn. He’s a retired teacher of magic who’s drawn back out of retirement because he’s got some secrets they need in the battle against the Death Eaters and he’s quite star struck as a teacher and he’s drawn back into the fold because he likes to notch up celebrity students, and he’s drawn back by Harry.”

The 6th Harry Potter movie began filming just Monday & is slated for a November 2008 release. Who else has chill bumps?
