‘Red Dawn’ remake to be like ‘Call of Duty’?

Posted: December 8, 2009 at 1:19 pm   /   Local, Movie News, Videogames

Sounds like a cool concept. I was kind of wondering what they were going to do with it this time around. There is no Cold War going on, but there is some pretty interesting turmoil in our foreign affairs. Although, the concept seems even more far fetched than the original.

Apparently $49 million dollars will be going into the budget to correct this problem. Just kidding of course, I’m sure it will be […]

Legendary Pictures picks up Warren Ellis’ ‘Gravel’

Posted: October 9, 2009 at 12:05 pm   /   Local, Movie News

This is great news. Although, if I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard of a Ellis story being adapted for the screen, and never coming to fruition. I’d have at least twenty-five cents by now. Ellis’ stories are very hard to adapt for the screen. Why? Well, because they are incredibly nihilistic and […]

For a while now, Darren Aronofsky has been connected to two projects – ROBOCOP and BLACK SWAN. But it looks like there is a chance that Arnofsky may drop the “robo-reboot” to concentrate on “Swan,” as it is the project that is getting closer to becoming a reality. Natalie Portman has already solidified the lead […]
