James McAvoy as Bilbo Baggins in "The Hobbit"

Here I was all prepared to be outraged when they announced who the new actor was who would be taking over the role of Bilbo Baggins for the Guillermo del Toro helmed prequel for the Lord of the RIngs. Who knew what weird decision making would come down. I mean, if… Continue

Brett Ratner Wraps His Ratty Hands Around "God of War"

Brett Ratner



See? You're already ready to be pissed about something. I can't really blame you. I have the same reaction with that name.



For those who haven't read the names logged for death in the 'if I actually WAS a super-powered insane gun-toting muscle-bound dude, I 'd totally take this guy out' book, Brett has a whole chapter devoted to him. For me, I'll never forgive him for how incredibly painful… Continue

New International Red Band "Wanted" Trailer May be Unintelligable, But It's Bad-Ass

Leon is completely correct when he says that the trailer is rarely an accurate representation of the film. There is a real art to the cutting of a good trailer that can turn shit into art and sometimes, at the hands of a bumbler, art into shit. So I never know quite how to feel when a movie that I feel only 'meh' about releases something that blows me away. Even stranger, this new red band trailer for… Continue

Check Out The Photo of the Original Heroes from Zack Snyder's Upcoming "The Watchmen"

While I'm still firmly in the camp of those who think that there is just no way that Zack Snyder's upcoming Watchmen film will do any amount of appropriate justice to the brilliant/groundbreaking Alan Moore graphic novel, I'm still itching with curiosity to see it anyways. It's my curse. I actually rented and watched… Continue

Quentin Tarantino Says His Long Awaited Film "Inglorious Bastards" to be Released in 2009

Oh, Quentin Tarantino. I just don't know what to do with you. Sure you've made some of my favorite films of all time, but you've been in a holding pattern lately. Should we ever really take seriously the promises you make or should we just chalk them up to someone interviewing you in the midst of a coke/alcohol fueled Cannes frenzy? Let's face it, despite… Continue

Many Many Questions Answered by Del Toro and Jackson About The Hobbit Including The Big One

*sigh*



Here I am, done with my responsibility for the day. I've given you enough stuff to make my evil masters at Spill happy for the week and I was preparing to pay some attention to my kitty, Devil Dinosaur, and surf unencumbered by the quest for something to write snarky comments about...but then I found it.



I'm not here to be a jerk about this. In fact, I feel very pleased and content now in a way that I was nervous and uncomfortable about before. You remember… Continue

Prepare To Wash Out Your Eyes and Ears with Hydrochloric Acid: It's "Beverly Hills Chihuahua"

We all saw this playing before Prince Caspian and honestly I almost ran out of the theater. The sky darkened like the clouds in Poltergeist and an unearthly moaning escaped my lips, beyond my control. I could not believe, did not want to believe...the horror, the knowledge that this writ onto my brain, sizzling my frontal lobe with it's message of doom. Forget about 2012,… Continue

Remakes on the Way of Flash Gordon, Highlander, and Red Dawn

Remakes!



The word sends chills of fear down even the most hardened movie-goers spine. Every once in a blue moon they actually get it right (Dawn of the Dead) but more often than not it's an embarrassing fiasco for everyone involved.



So now you know how I feel about them, let's take a quick look at some of the remakes that have just been announced:





Despite the… Continue

Cyrus Reviews "The Upright Citizen's Brigade: ASSSSCAT!" DVD



I can’t say as I’d ever paid but so much attention to the show The Upright Citizen’s Brigade, but then again, as far as I knew, neither did most anyone else I was friends with. I was too busy unsuccessfully chasing tail to pay much attention to yet ANOTHER sketch comedy group on Comedy Central. Apparently, this was my mistake. Especially since there was no tail… Continue

Marvel Films Says The One Thing That Makes Me Want to See the Captain America Movie

You MUST have by now seen the announcements from Marvel about their upcoming film slate by now. We've got X-Men Origins: Magneto and X-Men Origins: Wolverine on the way. How about Fantastic Four Conception: Franklin? (rawr)



Back to films that could actually happen, a Doctor Strange movie is in… Continue

Good lord, we're already at episode 4! This week our special guest is Jason F who some of you might already know from the Spill community. He's one of those guys who has been here since the beginning!

Cyrus Reviews the "Diary of the Dead" DVD



It seems like Diary of the Dead came out just a bit, JUST A WHIT too late to get the love it probably deserved more of. With Cloverfield stealing the limelight theatrically with the return of the hand-held camera horror film, it’s hard to watch this one with the same level of enthusiasm. Sure, it’s no masterpiece, but it is the… Continue

Cyrus Reviews the 40th Anniversary "Night of the Living Dead" DVD



I’ll tell you what. Do you consider yourself a horror film fan? If you’ve never seen (or more embarrassing for you-you don’t like) the original, legendary Night of the Living Dead by the guy who invented the zombie, George Romero



Well…



...go back to your room and don’t come out until you’ve changed your tune,… Continue

Ben Stiller's "Tropic Thunder" Has a Red-Band Trailer...And It's Frelling Funny

I never thought I'd ever say this again, but the new film Tropic Thunder which is written by, directed by and stars Ben Stiller...actually looks awesome. Way back last November, I did a blog completely deriding the whole project as a vanity project piece of garbage. I might have to eat my words… Continue

George Clooney to Star in Real-Life (?) X-Files Movie, "The Men Who Stare at Goats"

I'm willing to admit it. I got kind of a man-crush on George Clooney. The dude is totally a pimp, but old school style. He's like Dean Martin crossed with Cary Grant. Political without being annoying about it, stylin' without acting like a dick...women want to do him, Cyrus wants to be… Continue

President Tom Cruise in "The 28th Amendment"

Tom Cruise is many things to many people. A prominent and upstanding member of the community to Scientologists, a completely overrated actor whose personality has veered towards the dangerously crazy to everyone else. Ok, so maybe just two things to two groups of people. One thing he definitely IS is a type-a… Continue

Office Space II (Sort of) and a Live-Action Beavis and Butthead

Everybody loves Office Space. And why wouldn't ya? It's THE cult classic comedy of the decade (arguably). As much as I enjoyed creator Mike Judge's Beavis and Butthead series, he sure has come a long way since then. Of course, his most recent film Idiocracy hasn't… Continue

The Amazing Live-Action Manga Film "Death Note" Comes to America Next Week!

If you were reading Spill.com all the way back in October 2007, you might have seen my coverage of the local festival Fantastic Fest (which really lives up to it's name) and my glowing fan-boy praise for the Japanese manga-turned-live-action films Death Note and Death Note II. I was… Continue

Werner Herzog Remakes Classic Corrupt Cop Pic, "Bad Lieutenant"

In what has got to be one of the craziest film remake announcements I've personally ever come across, famous insane /genius director Werner Herzog is going to remake famous insane/genius director Abel Ferrara's film about a completely corrupt policeman, Bad Lieutenant. Not just a little corrupt either. Even… Continue

"Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li" Due Out Next February

Of all the video game properties to rush into production, Street Fighter ain't exactly what I would think of as top of the list. Does anyone else even remember the horrible adaptation of it back in 1994 with Jean-Claude Van Damme and poor Raúl Juliá in his… Continue
