Continuing the dismal trend of digging up the lifeless corpses of '70s and '80s television shows, painting them up pretty, and watching them decay over a single season of broadcast television (ed: see Knight Rider, The Bionic Woman, web-slingers!), ABC is reportedly close to or... / Continue →

Apparently this poster takes place on top of the Knocked Up poster. Which is actually a surprisingly popular location. Nothing sells them tickets like the sensation you're staring into the glowing light of a nauseating green afterlife.... / Continue →

These clips actually make me sort of uncomfortable. Probably similar to how my dad must have felt when he caught me quietly re-enacting the "I'm Batman" Batman scene alone in the living room.... / Continue →

The trailer for the childhood-friends-reunite-as-adults film Grown-Ups is here. Watching it, I have to think this will probably be a new generation's The Big Chill. Except no it won't, because The Big Chill was college friends, and it never included gags where Jeff Goldblum swi... / Continue →

A charming reminder that MoMA's upcoming, extensive Tim Burton exhibit opens November 22. I'll definitely be going, and I'll be taking along 1995 me, a young chap who still idealistically thinks everything Burton touches belongs at the top of his VHS shelf. If you run into us, ... / Continue →

And it sounds terrible. Read this description by story writer Frank Beddor, and you too can enjoy the knowledge that Ridley Scott's Monopoly isn't going to be as much like Blade Runner with Monopoly as previously described. It's more like something between a Parker Bros. sponso... / Continue →

I would have thought quick, throwaway joke asides illustrating an outlandish scenario just described would have been one of his secrets, too. I guess that's too common knowledge to be considered such.... / Continue →

And you too can see the ever-growing collection of Old Dogs faces at the Faces of Old Dogs blog. You can really tell this film is going to be a funny one. How could it not be with so many faces? (Thanks, Greg and Devon.)... / Continue →

Brendan Fraser keeps having kids with terminal illnesses. What's a dad to do? A lesser father must just throw in the towel and decide, "Alright, I'll just ride these two out and stop having children," but not Brendan Fraser. He finds Harrison Ford and tells him, "You have to do... / Continue →

Tyler Perry isn't like most people. He routinely dresses up like an old woman and films it, for one thing. He also feels the need to point out that he owns all of his movies. But at the root of all these things that make Tyler Perry such a unique cross-dresser is his special br... / Continue →

There are so many good ones coming out. Well done, Photoshopper. It's clear that more detail and craft are put into each of these than any of Brett Ratner's actual films (except possibly Money Talks). (Thanks for tipstering, Matt.)... / Continue →

You should really be listening to the Ricky Gervais podcasts. If you are already, good job. If you're not... well, fine, but not listening because you "hate things made of sound" because they make you use your "brain eyes" is no longer a valid excuse (usually that would be a va... / Continue →

Imagine if Hercules: The Legendary Journeys had just a few thousand more dollars in its budget. How many extra eight or nine hours Kevin Sorbo could have afforded to spend in the gym; how many tens of more extras could have been employed; how much slightly more realistic the gi... / Continue →

Kick-Ass trailer, everyone. If you're considering becoming an amateur superhero with no actual powers, watch this first. I'm not sure if it will discourage you; I just think it's the kind of thing that will probably be relevant and popular in amateur superhero circles, and I wo... / Continue →

Whether you loved or hated this summer's breakout hit The Hangover, I'm guessing you, like every other human, probably walked away from the film with one primary thought pounding at your braindoor: Why was Jennifer Aniston not in this instead of Ed Helms? I DON'T KNOW WHY. NO O... / Continue →

Ut oh, someone told CBS executives about Twitter, and now they want to get involved. Don't worry; they aren't starting accounts or anything. They're just purchasing the rights to the notion of a dad saying humorous things and developing the funny, popular account shitmydadsays ... / Continue →

With Batman sequel rumors calming momentarily, let's take some time to concentrate on different superhero movie casting speculation that probably won't end up being true. Like, did you hear how Rachel McAdams (and a guy) might be in Spider-Man 4??? Rachel McAdams has met with ... / Continue →

Your weekend box office report. Share it with friends (and would-be friends as a great icebreaker!): 1. A Christmas Carol - $30 million. In these desperate times (sort of nearing Christmas), people needed a movie of hope (something with Christmas in the title). 2. Michael Jac... / Continue →

What happens if you replace all the vampires in Twilight with Frakensteins? As you'll see in this trailer, not all that much, really. Just slightly different body paint:... / Continue →
