Is Matthew McConaughey trying to become a REAL...
(Ian) Everyone’s favorite shirtless leaner, Matthew McConaughey stars in films being released in 2012 by such prestigious directors as William Friedkin, Jeff Nichols, Steven Soderbergh and or course Richard Linklater. Is McConaughey finally attempting to become an interesting actor or is this just an aberration? I’m all for an interesting McConaughey.
Anyone think he will continue...

Anyone else watching a film for Friday? What are you viewing?

Does The Hobbit Need 2 Films?
(Ian) Just recently I started thinking more about THE HOBBIT film(s), which I am greatly anticipating and I’m not sure I like the idea of breaking it into 2 films. I’m all for 2 films if it needed the time to tell the story, but does it? It’s a 320 page book and since Jackson’s LOTR films were all over 3 hours, I figure the best Hobbit film could be done in that range and...

1984 Film Adaptation
(Ian) George Orwell’s amazing and bleak novel 1984 is in the early stages of receiving its third film adaptation. No director is yet attached, so I ask anyone who has read the book, who do you think could pull this material off? It’s my favorite novel and I believe with the right person at the helm, someone willing to wallow in the hopelessness and horror of it could make an amazing...

Originality continues to abound in Tinseltown...
(Eric) For those of you that didn’t know this already, Michael Bay is rebooting the TMNT franchise. He was at a press conference recently and stated that in his version the turtles will be aliens as opposed to just mutants, and then spent time explaining why that is more “realistic” than the old story. Anyone out there think Bay is NOT an assclown?
Also, there is...
