Another day, another Transformers picture. We've already seen the design for Optimus Prime, but there was still the question of if he'd hold a giant gun. Thanks to this new picture at Aint It Cool, we finally know. Yes, it turns out he will sport a giant gun, giving the acti... / Continue →

David Goyer's supernatural thriller, The Invisible, tells the story of a young man left for dead who finds himself invisible to the living, separated from his body. It sounds pretty neat, unfortunately I can't get behind a poster for invisibility that isn't centered around a ... / Continue →

For me, the draw to superhero movies has never been the cool, superpowered costumed hero. I'm seeing it for the one-dimensional love interest every time. It appears someone else feels the same way, as Sky News reports that Lois Lane will not only have a larger part in the next ... / Continue →

Between keeping track of the reissuing the Star Wars films and their personal duties of repainting new uniforms on G.I. Joes, nerds just can't get a break when it comes to the renovations of their old obsessions. The latest to fall victim to the hand of progress is Star Trek: Th... / Continue →

The new poster for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning teaches that proper chainsaw maintenance doesn't begin with oil and chain replacement--it begins with hugs. This poster is only slightly better than my idea of a Classic Concentration-style rebus with a drawing of l... / Continue →

Following the likes of Wayne Brady and Carnie Wilson, the imagined popularity of the Terminator has earned him a television program. The story is set to take place immediately following the events of Terminator 2, just after the point where everyone stopped caring about the Term... / Continue →

One sign I look for that always indicates a good movie is when the protagonist is shot in the head and in a coma by the halfway point. If that happens, you know you're really in for a cinematic treat. Such is the case with Jean-Claude Van Damme's newest masterwork. First I t... / Continue →

As much as I respect the Academy of Arts and Sciences, particularly the sciences division, I didn't bother watching much of the Emmy Awards. But if I did, this is what it would have been like had I "liveblogged" it.... / Continue →

The trailer for Driving Lessons has been released, giving the redhead kid from Harry Potter one more shot at acting before turning to drugs and pornography. The plot involves a shy, dweeby boy who becomes best friends with an eccentric old woman as they spend their days togeth... / Continue →

Everyone is familiar with the story of the car crash that took Princess Diana from the world, leaving a hole in our hearts and several pages of the The National Enquirer. (If you aren't familiar, listen to the Elton John song. You'll get the drift.) While moral weaklings deba... / Continue →
