Master and Commander Sequel, Other Casting News

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Kate BosworthThe casting news never stops! Here are some of the big announcements of the week:

In a rather surprise announcement, there are rumors that there’s going to be a sequel to Master and Commander, the excellent adventure-drama that starred Russell Crowe. While good, the movie didn’t make a ton of money if memory serves me right. Regardless, talks are that Crowe may reprise his role as Captain Jack Aubrey in The Reverse of the Medal. Of course, all of these developments are in rumor stages at this point. (more…)

Homecoming Movie Review

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Mischa Barton in HomecomingMischa Barton left The O.C. at the end of season three, perhaps a wise move considering the once-popular television series was fading quickly at that point. But even though she got out just in time, Barton has yet to make a name for herself as anyone but Marissa Cooper. Her latest film, the limited release thriller Homecoming, won’t change that, though the movie itself is surprisingly easy to watch.

Now on DVD: Dark Streets Movie Review

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Dark StreetsWhen I saw the previews for Dark Streets, I was intrigued. It looked like a darker Moulin Rouge meets Chicago, a smoky musical thriller set in the underworld of New Orleans. Unfortunately, reality is often much less exciting.

Dark Streets stars Gabriel Mann as Chaz, a playboy and nightclub owner who finds his life spinning out of control amidst too many love affairs, debt and the mystery surrounding his father’s death. Though there is a plot, Dark Streets is essentially one-long music video, featuring original songs with performances by Natalie Cole, Etta James, Richie Sambora and more.

Richard Kelly’s The Box Trailer

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

Cameron Diaz and James Marsden star in The Box, a thriller about a married couple who come home one day to find a box sitting on their front step. Scary, right? Right! The box has a button in it – a big, red, scary button. And if you press the button, someone in the world will die – so says Frank Langhella, who appears to be the villain. If they press it, though, they will receive a million dollars, and this couple is really tight on cash. Langhella, who is missing part of his face, also tells the strapping couple that he has people everywhere, and he isn’t lying. (more…)

Paper Heart looks amusing enough, and this new video clip from the movie has pushed me over the edge. Watch this faux interview with Charlyne Yi and alleged actor Paul Rust. The interview is pretty uncomfortable and entertaining at the same time. (more…)

DVD Review: Galaxy Quest: Deluxe Edition

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

Galaxy QuestWith Star Trek coming to theaters this week, it only seemed fitting – at least according to Paramount – to re-release Galaxy Quest in an all-new Deluxe Edition format (on May 12, 2009). This sci-fi spoof, which can only be described as a direct yet intelligent spoof of Star Trek and its fans, is a well-made and funny comedy starring Tim Allen, Alan Rickman, Signourey Weaver and Sam Rockwell, among others.

You don’t have to be a fan of Star Trek to enjoy the film, and in fact it’s fun going back after ten years and watching things all over again. For instance, at the time, Rickman was mainly known as that guy from Die Hard, whereas now he’s that guy from Harry Potter. No one knew who Rockwell was at the time, and if you look closely, Dwight from “The Office” even makes an appearance. (more…)

Cats and Dogs 2 Pushed Back to 2010! No!!!

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

Disheartening news… first Harry Potter was pushed back from fall of 2008 to the summer of 2009, and now the highly anticipated sequel to the hit blockbuster Cats and Dogs has been bumped to the summer of 2010. What is the world coming to when a film like Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore sees a year delay?

I don’t know if I can go on living in this world, people. That movie was going to be awesome. It was going to be the best. It was going to be like Star Trek and Terminator and Wolverine and Up and Schindler’s List all rolled into one.
