Yahoo movies has some info and what I think is the first pic from the Coen Bro. remake of the John Wayne Classic True Grit. I gotta say I’m still a bit baffled about why you’d remake the movie. Granted it’s gonna be a bit more based on the novel, Jeff Bridges has never...

Isaiah Mustafa, better known as the “Old Spice Guy” currently featured in a number of (hilarious!) Old Spice commercials, is apparantly campaigning for the role of Luke Cage. I for one love the idea. Cage is a great mix of bad@$$edness, comedy, and 70′s era nostalgia. Mustafa hits all that for me. Now granted...

Yeah, Jeff Bridges . . . you complete me. Seriously, has there been a better, more underapreciated actor inthe last 20 years? Okay, maybe Robert Duvall. But seriously, if there was anyone in the world I could switch places with, man it’d be tough not to want to be The Dude.

To say my antcipation for this movie grows is doubtless. If this movie sucks, I just may cry. I don’t remember looking this forward to a movie in a long time. On a side note, good to see Richard Dreyfuss finding work. He just sort of disappeared for a bit. Speaking of . ....

This may very well be the best cast ever assembled. John Malkovitch as a nutjob? Check. Morgan Freeman as a lecherous old coot? Check. Mary Louise-Parker looking adorable? Check. Bruce Willis in an action-comedy role? Check. Dame Helen Mirren as a gun toting assassin? Wait, what? Based on this trailer, I’m gonna feel pretty...

Honestly, I have no idea what to think of this flick. When Stephen Chow was attatched I was all for it just based on his playing Kato, now I’m not sure what to think. Comedy and action are a good combo, but can end messily. And Rogan is anything but typical leading man material....

Robert Duvall, Bill Murray. Sold. Helps that this looks interesting as hell. Comedy? Thriller? Both? Hit the boards to talk scary old men in beards.

Only1 points out an article about DC’s decision to cancel some planned animated DVD projects. You can see the article here This is kinda of a bummer. While I haven’t been super current on watching the projects, the few I’ve seen have been decent, if not spectacular (New Frontier, Wonder Woman). Maybe some big...

Deadline reports that Marvel is tapping Nick & Nora director Peter Sollett to head up the adaptation of the Brian K. Vaughn/Joss Whedon comic. I’m a big Runaways fan. Not really sure why, but it’s one of those comic gems that just seems to hit about every note right. Really curious to see if/how...
