OK, I’ll admit it: I couldn’t be happier that that the long-planned remake of the vamp classic Near Dark will not be happening any time soon. Producer Brad Fuller recently spoke with Empire magazine about the just-announced Twilight sequel, when Fuller brought up the remake, telling Empire, “Near Dark […]

I’ll be back.
Again, and again, and again, and again! The world of John Connor must be run on Duracells. Variety reports that the Terminator series won’t stop with Terminator Salvation — the planned trilogy is a go. When this Christian Bale-led version got cooking, the […]

The rumors were correct this time around, as it looks like Rob Zombie was convinced to return and direct a sequel to his Halloween reboot. Unlike the last Halloween, H2, not to be confused with Halloween H20, will arrive in theaters in October — which, um, makes a […]

It is not often that movie geeks can be taken by surprise, but that’s exactly what happened at Comic Con back in July when Disney screened test footage from the long-rumored sequel to the 80’s sci-fi classic, Tron. Now a few […]

They started off with Leatherface, which makes sense if you think about it: Horror flicks don’t get much more “classic” than TCM. So when Platinum Dunes announced a do-over on Friday the 13th, nobody was all that much surprised. Plus the Dunes boys keep talking about remaking The […]

Methinks the rumor-mongers are getting lazy — this has to be one of the most ridiculous bunches of gossip that I’ve heard in a while, but (as usual) it’s too amusing to not share.
The Sun actually claims to have the scoop on the next installment of Christopher […]

Who could breed such a perfect specimen of man like Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark? He has to be a bit dashing, and just a smidge brilliant. He must be a good businessman, and a bit of an alcoholic. Plus, it would probably help to have some similar […]

He may truly suck at making himself into a believable German, but Tom Cruise did something right when he signed on for Tropic Thunder. The gig got him his first raves in eons, a Golden Globe nomination, and now maybe a feature film?

The Wolverine trailer has hit the net, and I am a really happy girl. I think it looks fan-freaking-tastic, the ponderous tone perfectly in tune with Wolverine’s moody mantras. Yes, I’m biased. I adore the character so much that I can’t ever get drunk at ComicCon […]

He was the first to revel in skin-tight costumes — a slippery slope that paved the way for Joel Schumacher to make superheroes nippley. He was also the first to throw on a mask with no visible pupils — but while the Phantom may have been a trendsetter years […]
