Johnny Depp Talks About His Role As Tonto In “The Lone Ranger”

It is safe to say that anything Johnny Depp is attached to these days is interest worthy.  The man is a phenomenal actor and has really made some fantastic films.  The Lone Ranger is one of his films that has been talked about for awhile.  But it is moving forward extremely slowly.  It seems Disney is […]

“Red” Gets a Sequel and Writers

I really enjoyed Red.  It was a fun popcorn flick.  Most of the entertainment value for the film comes from the cast.  The film was a box office success and even earned a surprising Golden Globe nomination for Best Picture – Musical or Comedy.  Can the studio see the same success with a sequel? They […]

The Hidden Gem – “Identity” Starring John Cusack, Amanda Peet

“The Hidden Gem” is all about my personal favorite films.  And while some of the films I discuss may not be hidden to most movie fans, they are hidden to a majority of my friends and people that I have talked to.  So I want to discuss them for three reasons: 1. Tell you why […]

DVD Picks of the Week – “Stone”, “Buried”, “Justified” Season 1

Title: Stone Starring: Robert DeNiro, Milla Jovovich, Edward Norton Directed by:  John Curran Synopsis:  A convicted arsonist looks to manipulate a correctional officer into a plan to secure his parole by placing his beautiful wife in the lawman’s path.

UPDATED Bruce Willis Talks About “The Expendables 2”

Sheldon Lettich who is a friend of Jean Claude Van Damme recently talked about JCVD’s involvement in The Expendables sequel along with Steven Seagal’s.  “JC seems to be leaning towards appearing in the sequel, as far as I know. If Steven Seagal is not in the sequel, from what I’ve heard it won’t be because […]

Robert Downey Jr. Lends His Talents to Dreamworks

I am kind of shocked that a studio hasn’t locked down Robert Downey Jr. sooner to do an animated film.  Then again, he really only made his big comeback in 2008 with Iron Man.  The man has got a great voice for animation, and his name will get butts in the seats.  At least that’s […]

Wonder Woman TV Series Will Happen Eventually

David E. Kelley has been very successful in the television community.  Doogie Howser, M.D., Ally McBeal, and Boston Public are just a few of the television successes that he has created.  So it seems odd to me that every major studio would pass on his pitch for a new show.  It seems even more odd […]
