New Posters Zohan Horton Hears A Who The Hottie The Nottie Forbidden Kingdom

New Posters: Zohan, Horton Hears A Who, The Hottie & The Nottie, Forbidden Kingdom By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 20, 2007 3:34 am EST The Forbidden Kingdom poster continues to give me a Wizard of Oz vibe. Am I the only one who believes this is a loose remake of Oz? The film pairs martial arts veterans Jackie Chan and Jet Li for their first time. Directed by Rob Minkoff (The Lion King) and featuring fight choreography from Yuen Wo Ping (The Matrix films, Kill Bill), The Forbidden Kingdom follows an American teen (Michael Angarano) who is transported back to ancient China, where he meets up with two Kung Fu masters (Chan, Liu Yifei) and a Silent Monk (Li)....

Here is the situation, as I understand it. A couple weeks ago, Nikki Finke made claims that Harvey Weinstein had harassed both Sydney Pollack while on his deathbed and the widow of the late Anthony Minghella in an attempt to get the film into movie theaters for Oscar consideration....

Robert Rodriguez To Remake Barbarella

Robert Rodriguez To Remake Barbarella By Peter Sciretta/May 21, 2007 5:46 pm EST I have to say, I really don’t care about a Barbarella. I never liked the 1968 Jane Fonda film, or the French comicbook series that it spawned from. But now it’s just been announced that Robert Rodriguez will direct the remake. But why? A few weeks back it was rumored that the Sin City director was considering a live-action Jetsons film or big screen Land of the Lost....

Team Behind Spellbound And Rocket Science Assembling Documentary On DC Comics By Russ Fischer/Feb. 5, 2010 2:46 pm EST Given the fact that Marvel and DC Comics characters have proved to be the new mainstays for summer moviegoing, I’m surprised that we haven’t seen a new documentary that reaches deep into the history of either company. That might be about to change as Jeffrey Blitz and Sean Welch (who directed and produced Spellbound, Rocket Science and Lucky) are producing a doc about DC....

Now he’ll have a chance to continue that run in The Adjustment Bureau, the adaptation of a Philip K. Dick short story starring Matt Damon....

Incredible work! Stan Winston would be proud. TMP says he spent $1500-2000 on the material compound alone, never-mind months of trial and error. The resulting suit looks pretty real to me. But outside of Comic-Con and Halloween, where do you wear such a thing?...
