Posted: January 6, 2011 at 4:36 pm   /   Local, Movie Trailers

So far the news has been slow moving, and despite all the promises I can’t give my hopes up yet. Until they finish a script I can’t believe that it will actually happen. During a promotional junket […]

Ellen Page Developing Show for HBO

Posted: October 8, 2009 at 3:26 pm   /   Local, Movie News

Ellen Page is quite the A-lister now. She is developing a show for HBO called, Stitch n’ Bitch. Just on that name alone I think I am sold. Throw in the awesome Alia Shawkat, and I’m already setting up my DVR for it. I’m sure the show will be filled with snarky one liners aimed […]
