What’s going on in the wondrous world of Hollywood this week? Here are a few people that have desperately found jobs, having been unemployed for what seems like forever…

Michael Sheen, the lovable David Frost, will be playing what is rumored to be a villain in the upcoming Tron: Legacy.

Bryce Dallas Howard brings some more legitimacy to the Twilight franchise by signing on to replace Rachel Lefevre as Victoria in Eclipse, the third film. Considering that Victoria is the main villain in the story, it’s no surprise that Summit wanted to go with someone who is a little more well known. (more…)

Last week, The Hollywood Reporter ran a story on the upcoming DC Comics movie adaptations that are coming to theaters, as well as television shows and other media projects in development. Though Warner Brothers and DC lay claim to the highly successful Batman series, the company appears to be floundering with a lot of its properties while rival Marvel has established a very strong lineup (you can view upcoming Marvel comic book movie release dates here) and their own studio. (more…)

It must be crazy to say that Battlestar Galactica is one of the best television series ever made, simply because I and so many other people have been repeating such a statement for years now. Why say a thing repetitively when almost everyone who you talk to believes you already? That, my friends, is insanity.

The show is now over(except for the upcoming TV movie The Plan, which gives us one last BSG item to hold onto), as sad as that it is. That means it’s time for a complete series package, and a complete series package Sci-Fi Channel has made! (more…)

I saw (500) Days of Summer last night with a friend, and here’s my movie review for the film:

The romantic comedy: Boys meets girl. Boy gets in argument with girl. Boy reunites with girl. Movie ends. Every movie is the same, only with different characters and a slightly modified hook. Some are better than others and legitimately entertaining. But in the end, they’re all predictable and unoriginal. So when (500) Days of Summer promises to be something different, you have to be intrigued – and skeptical.

Jeff Bridges returns to his roots in TRON Legacy, the sequel to the 1980’s virtual reality flick Tron. The movie is scheduled to debut sometime in 2010, and will most likely be in 3D. Below is a concept video that debuted at Comic-Con, which features two motorcyclists racing through a virtual world.

It looks like Speed Racer, only good. How good? That remains to be seen. The movie is going to need a legitimate plot and screenplay, because we’ve passed the age where special effects alone can “wow” people. In a world where we have some pretty incredible visual effects in video games, the weird visuals in the movie don’t necessarily offer a realistic environment. But, TRON Legacy still looks pretty cool…

I do remember seeing a very similar video like this a while back; I can’t remember if it’s the exact same one only with the film’s new title, but it may be.

For years, time travel has been but a theory, a concept that even the smartest people in the world haven’t been able to conquer. But now, John Cusack, Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson and Clark Duke, have discovered where the secret lies: their hot tub.

Watch the restricted teaser trailer for the upcoming 2010 movie Hot Tub Time Machine below. The trailer’s pretty funny, with some pretty good (profanity laden) humor.

Watch the teaser trailer for Tim Burton’s 2010 fantasy adventure Alice in Wonderland, starring Johnny Depp as the Madhatter. This doesn’t look that good, but hopefully future trailers do more to sell me on it.

Joaquin Phoenix. What comes to mind when you hear that name? Two-time Academy Award nominee?  Younger brother of River Phoenix? Or crazy, bearded rapper wannabe who embarrassed himself, either intentionally or not, on a variety of occasions over the last several months? Regardless, what he isn’t known for is his “final” movie Two Lovers, which he was supposed to be promoting on David Letterman during the now infamous gum chewing interview.

There are good movies, and there are bad ones. That’s a John Madden thing to say, but it’s true. Miss March, sad to say, falls clearly into the latter category, and doesn’t even appear to care.

Zach Cregger and Trevor Moore wrote, directed and star in this road trip movie, about a guy who fell into a coma in high school and has awoken four years later only to discover that he can no longer control his bowels, his parents have moved away and his girlfriend, once a proponent of abstinence, has become a Playboy cover girl. His best friend Tucker (played by Moore) decides to kidnap him from the hospital, travel across the country and crash a Playboy Mansion party to win her back. Antics ensue, all of which are allegedly funny.

When Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse debuted in February, I was mildly intrigued to see what the man had come up with. I never watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer but was a huge fan of Firefly and its companion film Serenity, and so Whedon’s name alone was enough to get me to watch the premiere. The show didn’t look all that great from the previews, as the Fox marketing team had once again failed to present it as quality material (when Firefly first came out, I also thought it looked incredibly stupid). The show also stars Eliza Dushku, a sexy woman who I like to look at but have always equated with B-grade television. (more…)
