Just when I was worried Christmas wasn't coming this year, SlashFilm tells me American Pie Presents: Beta House is on its way (bypassing theaters, of course), providing the cinematic equivalent of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. I don't what rock I was living under, but wasn't e... / Continue →

I know that Fred Claus is about Santa Claus's brother coming to visit and annoy him for the holidays, but I think there are two ways this could play out. The bad way: Like Houseguest, starring Sinbad, or Uncle Buck, we're meant to find it amusing that they've created a terribly... / Continue →

I'm a self-confessed idiot who needed parts of Shrek explained to him (that donkey is basically racist, right?), so it comes as no surprise that the trailer to Donnie Darko director Richard Kelly's latest, Southland Tales, makes nearly no sense to me. I've watched it four times... / Continue →

Walt Disney pictures has just released the poster to the first Chronicles of Narnia sequel, Prince Caspian, with an image that finally confirms the foreign noble stole my pure ivory masturbator. In this follow-up to The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the Pevensie kids return... / Continue →

Hey, have UHURA'D the news of who Zoe Saldana is playing in Star Trek prequel?! Do you see what I did there? I gave you a little clue in the first sentence. You probably missed it because it was so cleverly and seamlessly worked in, but look again and you'll see that she's pl... / Continue →

Typically, prior to getting on set, an extra on a film will sign a non-disclosure agreement, which basically means that the extra isn't allowed to go around telling people which shocking new sport Air Bud is good at this go-round unless he wants a slew of lawyers on his back. Th... / Continue →
