If Clerks 2 cost 5 million in 2006, the inflation of 20% isn't much. That second one made about five times its money back in theaters, although the unnecessary marketing took a chunk. The Weinsteins withheld money owed and tat had to be sorted out with an audit, and the favored nations on 2 paid, before anyone could…

Actually the Mara depicted in the illustration - as in many of her - looks like Gillian Anderson.

So it's not a comment on Mark Hamill's movie The Big Red One ? I suggest a moratorium on Star Wars speculation. JJ jerked everyone around over Khan supposedly not being in his latest Trek flick. There will be plenty of hubub as every fan site and entertainment site reposts anything that starwars.com posts, and in…

This is my second reply to "Dorian Gray." The first appears to have been deleted. Nobody who sees a movie is doing a "morally wrong" thing. None of us - from childhood onward - need pay any attention to the business of copyright. The heirs of Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel have their business with DC and by extension…

Firstly, I saw the movie for free once it was on DVD. Secondly, the estates of the creators have settled their issues with DC and by extension Warner. Comic book rights buy-outs and unfair treatment of creators have nothing to do with the consumers, most of us had already enjoyed the Superman comics, TV shows and…

Is anyone formally reviewing reviewers? Man of Steel worked fine. I was a nay-sayer until I actually saw it. Thought went into it. And, "SM," is the idea of comparing superheros to God new to you? It's been a pretty good year if these are the "worst." Die Hard V may be the weakest of its series, but it is in…

The trouble is that George Lucas achieved something in his late twenties and early thirties, with the help of other writers, cast and crew, that stood the test of time better than the sensibilities of its creator.  Even the novelizations of the original trilogy have been re-novelized by other authors and the comics…

I wonder which lines she contributed to The Wedding Singer, The River Wild and Hook.
Funny that there is no mention of her role as Marie with the roladex in When Harry Met Sally or the role in Hannah and Her Sisters.  That seems to be an area where she would fit in best.  Also, I'd challenge the idea that Leia products…
