Well, the same site that was reporting last week that “Superbad” star Jonah Hill was in talks to star in “Transformers 2″ is now saying that he won’t. … Hot off her recent Oscar nomination for “Juno,” Variety says Ellen Page will star in a new BBC Films adaptation of Charlotte Bronte’s “Jane Eyre,” scheduled […]

Remember the cheesy live-action Sid & Marty Kroft Saturday morning TV show “Land of the Lost”? Will Ferrell is hoping that you do because he’s starring in it (although it’s not a family in peril anymore, just him and two other adults–weird). Let’s just hope this is better than “Bewitched.” Universal Studios has just released a photo […]

Since when was it okay for movie stars to sing?
Despite his hit “Respect Yourself,” Bruce Willis sure didn’t leave me breathless for the return of Bruno. I was happy to hear that Eddie Murphy thought he was Rick James, bitch, and wanted to “Party All the Time,” but even happier to hear that that sicky-sweet insipidness was the end […]

Whose idea was it to use Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man” in all the trailers and marketing for the upcoming Jon Favreau-directed Marvel comics spectacle (starring Robert Downey, Jr.) ? Give them a freaking medal (made of iron, no doubt) because this is both kitchy and fun and totally bad ass at the same time. But […]
