    Short Film, A**hole, Now Online (Brooklyn's Curb Your Enthusiasm?)

    Pal of David Cross and Johnny Knoxville and all-around New York renaissance man, Gavin McInnes, has released his short film from Sundance, entitled A**hole, to the web masses. The short has a simple premise: McInnes plays the titular (analar? familiar?) character, a man on the verge of blowing up or becoming a full-blown snuggler during…

    Bunny And The Bull Video Clip (New Film From The Mighty Boosh Team)

    Drawing early comparisons to the films of Michel Gondry is Bunny and The Bull, the debut feature from writer/director Paul King, best known for his work on the BBC's wonderfully disoriented comedy series The Mighty Boosh. The movie co-stars the Boosh's Noel Felding and Julian Barratt, the latter of which can be seen in the below…

    Metropia Movie Trailer

    It takes a lot to wow me when it comes to animation stills, especially ones conjuring yet another rainy, dreary, effing dystopia. Part of me still hopes for a vibrant comeback for traditional animation and the swathing warmth and human connection that computer animation simply cannot match, at least in my opinion. But there is…

    Weinstein Company Shuts Down Halloween 3D. Halloween 2 Set For Re-Release.

    According to Deadline minutes ago, the Weinstein Company has temporarily (permanently?) pulled the plug on pre-production for Halloween 3D. With rumors circulating today throughout the industry that Summit Entertainment, flush with Twilight monies, might pursue an acquisition of TWC, this is not a good look. Sources tell Nikki Finke that TWC simply believed the production…

    Greg Daniels On The Future Of The Office

    Most fans of The Office (Scranton, USA) are simply stoked and relieved that Pam and Jim are finally making it happen, so a longer glimpse down the halls of the NBC series might seem verboten. Nevertheless, series creator and writer, Greg Daniels, recently chimed in on the future of the most aloof branch of Dunder-Mifflin...…

    Leonardo DiCaprio To Star In The Deep Blue Goodbye

    In what could be the first film in a noirish franchise for 20th Century Fox, Leonardo DiCaprio is attached to star as Travis McGee, a fictional Floridian gumshoe who lives on a houseboat, in The Deep Blue Goodbye. The film is an adaptation of the popular 1964 novel---nearly identical in title---by late pulp-fiction author John…

    First Look: The Other Guys

    Unofficial photos have evidently leaked from the Big Apple set of Adam McKay's The Other Guys. As First Showing notes, these might as well be premature studio-approved stills from the action comedy, which just began filming and is due late summer 2010. Missing from the pics are new recruits Sam Jackson and Dwayne "Tooth Fairy"…

    Barf City: Clip From The Human Centipede (One Of The Grossest Movies Of All Time?)

    Over the summer, I briefly heard about a torture-pornish horror movie entitled The Human Centipede (First Sequence) but didn't give it (or the title) a second thought. Well, over the weekend Centipede slithered into the orgasmic Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas and after the screening the buzz suddenly recalled the barfers-barfing-on-barfers scene from Stand By Me. Capitalizing…

    VOTD: Stephen Colbert And Jeff Goldblum Play Out Battleship: The Movie

    The peg will be played by Keanu Reeves. Hollywood's looming shit squall of "movies" based on board games finally received an irksome hat tip from Stephen Colbert and the top shelf writers at The Colbert Report. It didn't disappoint. After mentioning Ridley Scott's Monopoly project, complete with an Alien-inspired conundrum for mustachioe guy, Colbert feigned interest…

    Symbol Teaser Trailer (Trippy, Claustrophobic Japanese Fantasy)

    The latest trailers for Symbol (or Shinboru) hint at an odd film that mixes the claustrophobia of Cube, the asylum-like paranoia of Jim Henson's The Cube, and the random, colorful Japanese itemization of a Turbo Grafx 16 game import. Needless to say, I'm interested, and buzz on the latest film from Hitoshi Matsumoto, the Japanese…

    Remake Of The Fly To Be Directed By... David Cronenberg

    Note: With The Matarese Circle, once a potential vehicle for Tom Cruise, seemingly on the back burner, might this be David Cronenberg's next film? The director also has the previously announced Don DeLillo adaptation and "limo drama," Cosmopolis, in development. Predictable news this evening with a double-take twist. David Cronenberg is said to be developing…

    Pee-Wee Herman Returns With A Twitter Account...and A Jay Leno Interview

    Last night, to the surprise of many, "Pee-wee Herman" began trending on Twitter only a few hours after new account for the character launched on the social network: @peeweeherman (it has just been verified as legit). Earlier this year, Peter posted about a limited engagement at Hollywood's The Music Box in November marking the official…

    Where The Wild Things Ought To Be...

    The Furies versus The Furries? Spike Jonze's official blog for Where the Wild Things Are, We Love You So, is currently running a fan art contest---prize: WTWTA skatedecks---and entries thus far have been rather inventive and/or delightfully hokey. For instance, while the above image is sans iconic creatures, the positing of the film's child character, Max, alongside…

    Is NBC's Community Worthy Of The Best Comedy Block On TV?

    Last night saw the debut on NBC of Community, the new half-hour sitcom notable for starring The Soup quickstepper, Joel McHale, and parting the prime time waters for Chevy "Nugent, Ted Nugent" Chase. Based on the premiere, Community looks to introduce a sweet-hearted strain of politically incorrect irreverence to the Big 3 as a reaction…

    Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy Teaser Trailer And Details

    With Jackie Earl Hailey having officially declawed Robert Englund and become Freddy Krueger for a new and possibly even-more-horrific decade, an extensive documentary on the franchise, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and the series' tremendous contribution to horror is both relevant and overdue. Thankfully, the director in charge of the task is Daniel Farrands, who…
