Hm, so I wonder what he’s going to say about Body of Lies…

Gary, yeah… I need to write up a review for Body of Lies and I hope to see City of Ember this weekend.

Honestly, review writing is one of my least favorite things to do – but do it I must.

Hint, Body of Lies was very, very good.

Vic, any reviews coming up soon?
I just love reading them.

My only concern Is
I dont want the new armor and and too many villains to overwhelm the character aspects of the film
I reserve judgement until I see the film ,But i just hope we keep the villains to a minimum.

Hey, I just saw an interesting headline in filmonic, they quoted Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby regarding Hulk’s future. The comment expressed something I felt regarding TDK:

“I hope ‘The Avengers’ embraces that,” Fergus said of having the Hulk as misunderstood baddie. “You don’t want like 10 super-badass good guys fighting together. Where’s the fun in that? Let’s break it off a little. Friends or colleagues who become enemies is always an interesting thing because you know it’s based on love and friendship and that’s always the worst thing to have turn bad — is someone you actually care about and someone you actually believe in.”

That’s the exact point I was making before when it turns out in TDK, Harvey Dent and Bruce Wayne will not be friends before the setting of the movie like they were in the animated series. I thought it would have been a much more interesting dynamic if Batman’s villain is actually also his best friend, the same sentiment Fergus expressed in that comment about Hulk being a villain since he’s also a “good guy.” What do you guys think about this? Both the concept extending to TDK and just the mere fact that The Hulk might end up being the villain for The Avengers.

If they could do a reboot without all the virgin-teen-slash-fest stuff, I’d probably go see it.

We don’t keep up with horror flicks as much as other genres, sorry about that.

We need more writers. :-0

As long as there will be decent footage of War Machine in Iron man two I will be satisfied.

Um is there any news about the Friday the 13th remake?? I also heard there was supposed to be a remake of A Nightmare on Elm street.

Hadn’t heard that, I see the fraud page has been taken down. Might be B.S.

oops, meant to type “its” not “it’s” ah well, I’m sure there are other mistakes but that one, for some odd reason, stood out for me, lol.

Hey Vic, I heard some rumblings over the internet that there are allegations of “ticket fraud” for American Carol. Such as theaters selling the incorrect ticket to people who want to see that film to decrease it’s box office take, not putting up the posters, listing it with a R rating instead of PG-13, incorrect times on the marquis, or not having it on the marquis at all, etc. etc… Do you think it is worth researching and writing about?

On their site, supposedly it had a message regarding this that read:

“Please check your ticket. If you were in fact one of those people that were “mistakenly” sold a ticket for another movie please fill out the form below. Hold on to your ticket so we can have proof.”

But it has since been taken down.

What do you think?

I read earlier today over on scifi that Shyamalan is reconsidering a sequel to ‘Unbreakable’

This is a movie I always thought deserved (or needed) a good sequel and is really the only Shyamalan movie that I truly like.

This news kind of excites me. I would love to see Willis return as ‘Security Man’ and Sammy J as ‘Mister Glass’

Am I alone?
