Crowe To Replace Pitt in State Of Play?

Categories: News Chat | By John |

It was with great enthusiasm that I first talked about an upcoming project called “State of Play”, a political thriller that was going to reunite Brad Pitt and Ed Norton (the two were pure magic together in Fight Club).

Bourne Ultimatum DVD Arrives Dec 11th

Categories: News Chat | By John |

The Bourne franchise has been an amazing success by anyone’s standards, although I wasn’t all that thrilled with the first two installments. Don’t get me wrong, I did enjoy the first 2… but found they lacked too much, not to mention the Bourne movies have become the poster children for the cancer of “Shaky [...]

The very first time I saw “Ask a Ninja” I wasn’t impressed and actually thought it was sort of corny. However, I ended up seeing a few more installments of it and it really grew on me… now I think the guy is a comedic genius. Anyway, Ask A Ninja just did [...]

Having worked in the visual effects industry for a few years, I’ve always been far more intrigued by the technology and techniques filmmakers use to make a film than say… an actor talking about how they came to be in the picture. It’s a great merging of art and science.
Anyway, IMAX has a video [...]

I was skeptical about this film. The idea of a cartoon person coming to the real world just seemed like it was a disaster waiting to happen. I thought I would be walking into a train-wreck of a movie that desecrated the name of Disney. I was wrong.
