Winona whines, Roofpig laughs
You know, I almost thought I wasn't going to have anything interesting to write about in this blog. The movie industry seems to be lacking in the truly exciting or wonderfully angering news department. But this little piece of celebrity gossip got me going. Apparently Hollywood's "bad girl," Winona...

He's OFF my list
That's it. I've officially lost all respect for Sam Raimi. And that makes me really sad because he was always an idol to me for his directing style. Raimi was quoted a while back as saying he wouldn't want to do a 4th Spiderman movie because he didn't think the audience would want to see one. I...

I'm Batman
Okay, why is it that all the good movies come out in spring/summer? From Christmas till then is just gloom and snow and being trapped inside. Wouldn't that be a good time to show good movies in the theater? The reason for this rant is that I finally saw the trailer for the new Batman movie, "Batman...

Disney will die for their sins
I am trying so hard not to put my fist through the screen. I've posted before on how Disney plans to make another sequel to Toy Story even if Pixar leaves. Now I find out they plan to do the same with Finding Nemo. That would be bad enough, but the real kick to the nuts was learning they want to do...

On music
I don't think this counts as "Hollywood," but it deals with the entertainment industry. I am currently listening to one of Korn's newest singles and... ugh. It's one of the most awful things I've ever heard. They were so original when they first came on the scene. Why would they want to sound like...

Taking a stance on the Oscars
Apparently Mel Gibson has refused spending an arm and a leg on advertising his movie "The Passion of the Christ" for the Oscars. Gibson's business partner Bruce Davey was quoted as saying, "This film should be judged on its artistic merit, not on who spends more money for advertising. That's really...

New director for Potter movie
Some good news (maybe) finally. The next Harry Potter move (the Order of the Phoenix) now has a director. Apparently he made one movie called "The Tichborne Claimant," a movie released in Britain but not the US. But, seeing as though the last time they picked a not-so-well-known director we were...

A remake and a sequel
Here's the report on the newest remake and sequel I feel need to be ranted about. Remake - apparently Spiderman director Sam Raimi wants to remake the movie that made him (in)famous, The Evil Dead. However, he's not going to direct it. I'll hold on a second while your brain absorbs that. Why would...

Don't Panic!
Until May 6th, 2005, my life has no meaning. What's so special about that date? That's the day the Earth is destroyed. Well, on the screen anyway. That is the scheduled release for the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie. I've been waiting for this moment since the first time I read his books...

Toy Story 3? 4???
Disney - second on my hate list to Dubya - is going ahead with Toy Story 3, with or without the help of Pixar. Hold the phone, here. Toy Story - as well as all of the Pixar movies - was made popular because of it's superior animation and superb writing, two things in which Pixar pride themselves on....
