SPINAL TAP RETURNS!!!
Man. So short, but so beautifully awesome.

Rambo IV early trailer
Looks like a gruesome but entertaining 'straight to DVD' action flick.

Images of Transformers that almost make me want to see it now
I know I'll hate the dialogue (the leaked script is pages upon pages of shame), but the action scenes may be the reason to sell me in. And these pics stolen from various places across teh internets are may be the proof in the proverbial pudding. Click the still images to expand them.

Pretty cool short film
The ending was a nice surprise. Worth watching all the way through.

Die Hard 4.0 - Live Free Die Hard
Here's the first teaser for the upcoming Die Hard 4.0. Which I totally despise as a name. It's a film, not a word processor...

General Transformers
General Motors have just unveiled their Transformers movie line-up of cars:
Jazz looks a bit 'mobile hairdresser', but Ratchet and Ironhide look more like it. Still stinks of a whole blockbuster film advert. I still harbour a dream of getting my soul eroded by the build up to this film, only to be blown away by the final product. But as I say, it is just a dream...

Indy Jones 4 - Worldwide release date
Well despite recent rumours to the contrary, Indy 4 is definitely in production and will be for most of the next 12 months or so, as it has a worldwide release date of Thursday May 22nd 2008!
So get your Fedora's dusted off!!!!

Uwe Boll goes Postal: first trailers released
This looks like it'll be incredible. And by incredible, I mean incredibly bad.
Film is Dead: Long live digital movies says David Lynch
He has a good argument for this too.

Tobey Maguire buys man's soul
I'd wager he could've got one much cheaper down Whitechapel market.
Transformers the movie. More bad art
Starscream is an abortion. Prime looks better in 'Earth mode' bar his ridiculous face. The overall style is quite complex. I'm optimistic they'll look better onscreen, but I still have no faith in this movie. Now, this has become watching a car crash in slow motion for me...

Dead or Alive: The Entire Paul W.S Anderson-produced abortion, posted on the net
Awesome. The full turd can be found here. It's comically bad. Him and Uwe Boll need to offer journos a chance to beat the shit out of them in a tag team MMA match. I would totally sign up for that shit.
Note: This movie also features 'mark of quality' actor Eric Roberts.

Lion-Emo: Thundercats given the Loonatics treatment
Not as bad as Loonatics, but he still appears to have gone a bit 'emo'. I fucking HATE emo.
Bob Saget; funnier than I thought he would be at stand up comedy
This is one of the dads off Full House. I thought he'd be lame. He's actually funny as fuck. Here he is doing the Aristocrat joke:
Another edit of it if it gets taken down:

Wicker Man. Funniest film Nic Cage has ever done
The bees! I love my eyes!
And here's Cage punching a woman while in a bear costume. I must see this film.

From two of the writers of Scary Movie
Comes Epic Movie. It looks rather funny and apes pretty much anything that has come out in the last few years.
Buffy Season 8 to come to fruition!
By way of the comic medium. But Whedon doesn't want to touch the anti-climax that was Angel. Yet.
January 5, 2007
Samuel L Jackson and Ron Perlman sounding a lot like Prison Break's T-Bag voice Afro Samurai
Or at least the first episode. Which you can watch at the link below if you can trick your browser into thinking you're in America. Pretty solid. Looks very Ninja Scroll in style. Also, Kelly Hu (smoking hot babe from Martial Law) and Dwight Schultz (A-Team's Murdoch) do voices as well. I love Kelly Hu more and more each day.

First proper trailer for Michael Bay's rape of The Transformers franchise
The trailer is well cut. Nice CG. I will probably see it to see a giant robot transform on the screen and I still have no faith this will be any good.

To make this all better, here's a picture of Megan Fox who is in the trailer:

Eddie Murphy on Inside The Actor's Studio
Funny stuff. He even finds a pube in his glass. And every time he pulls a gun in a movie, he's doing a Bruce Lee impression. Not a very good one from where I'm standing, but still...

Matthew Vaughn's new 'Stardust' film said to be a bit like the Princess Bride
Which is one of my favourite flicks. So I'm going to keep an eye out for this one, especially since it's based on a Neil Gaiman story and Vaughn directed Layer Cake, which is one of the smartest Brit gangster flicks in ages:

Set pants to 'shat'. HBO buys Ennis' Preacher for TV!
YES!. Fucking Y. E. S. Thank General Niesler of the Knights Nick for unearthing this gold. For those who don't know why this is awesome, here is a quote from the piece:
The comic followed a down-and-out Texas preacher possessed by a supernatural entity formed by an affair between an angel and a demon. With great powers, the preacher teams with an old girlfriend and a hard-drinking Irish vampire to find God and hold him responsible for neglecting his duties.

Bruce Lee: further rape of his legend planned by way of CG movie
Lame. As a Bruce Lee fan, I'm entirely comfortable with the fact he was great in his time, but his era has passed and we have Enter the Dragon and two other great flicks to enjoy from it. Everything else that has come since, bearing the Lee name has been shit. Dragon was okay, but nothing more needs to be said about the man. Stop the exploitation and go do something else.
