Mark Millar Talks About His 'Godfather-like' Superman Epic That Will NEVER Get Made
One of the main reasons Mark Millar's comic book projects have been coming out so slowly (*ahem* Kick-Ass, Old Man Logan) is because he's so wrapped up in getting a Hollywood project off the ground. He's been very tight-lipped about the ‘big-Hollywood action director’ he's been working closely with on a pitch for HIS Superman movie. Rather, MOVIES. His idea is for an 8-hour saga, split into 3 films to be released a year apart, ala… Continue

Mel Gibson Starts His Own Church
After his public arrest and disastrous apology in 2006, actor-director Mel Gibson became known to the world as an out-of control, womanizing, anti-Semitic, booze hound. But one thing you can’t take away from him is that the guy puts his money where his mouth is.

Rudy Ray Moore (March 17, 1927 - October 19, 2008) R.I.P.
I am not the guy to eulogize the late, great Rudy Ray Moore. Not when our own Korey is the biggest Dolemite/ Petey Wheatstraw/ Avenging Disco Godfather fan IN THE WORLD.
But I do remember the first time we met Sir Rudyard Raymond Moore….
It was about twelve or… Continue

DVD Review: 'SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK: Election Collection'
Like all Gen-Xers, everything I learned from Elementary school (that I’ve managed to retain) was pumped into my head every Saturday morning in between episodes of Superfriends and Dyno-Mutt and Jabberjaw and Captain Caveman and etc…
Through Schoolhouse Rock we all learned (Manchurian Candidate-style) to recite the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution, the inner working of the human digestive system, the principle of speculative fiction… Continue

Dane Cook and Alec Baldwin Differ Over "My Best Friend's Girl"
You wouldn't think there would be any controversy (or even a differing opinion) in claiming the 'My Best Friend's Girl' is a BAD movie. From its $45 million budget it barely made back $8 million in it's opening weekend- and still has only grossed $18 million three weeks later. Plus, on Rotten Tomatoes it only rated 18% on the famous… Continue

DVD Review: 'SPEED RACER'
The tricky part of writing a review for the Speed Racer movie is avoiding racecar puns, especially since it did such an inglorious crash & burn at the box office.

Salma Hayek Pops out of Her Dress on German TV (photos)
Oops! Sorry, I meant to say "almost" pops out of her dress.
After losing a bet with an audience member on the German talk show, Wetten Dass, Salma Hayek was forced to wear a low-cut traditional Bavarian Dirndl dress which...barely contained herboobs for the rest of the show.…

The new corporate investment?: Big Business Buys Out Bond...James Bond.
With Daniel Craig taking over as James Bond in ‘Casino Royale’ we got a film that was grittier and tougher than most of the ones that preceded it. There was a great reduction in Bond’s sexism and use of high-tech gadgets. For the upcoming… Continue
