In the site’s “Comic Reel Wrap” posted on Sept. 4 they say that the latest set of rumors originally posted by IESB, have apparently been debunked.

Live Free or Die Hard

Live Free or Die Hard

This article was written by guest author Anthony Coe.

You would think that after four of anything, it would get old and stale. The fourth movie in the Die Hard series Live Free or Die Hard delivers from the first minute and doesn’t rely on old tag lines. Okay so there is one “Yippee-Kah-Yay”. But by [...]

Alec Baldwin is Right!

Alec Baldwin is Right!

Only in America would the Virginia Tech Massacre be knocked off the top story by Alec Baldwin doing what he does best, being an asshole. I’ve listened to the caustic message this fat, former heartthrob left for his bratty pre-teen daughter Ireland, and I have to say that the man’s biggest mistake was saying these things on tape.

It’s like Rob Lowe or R. Kelly. I can’t really blame the guys for getting down and dirty with a trashy, little under-18 whore. Just don’t put it on tape, guys. Trust me, I never do.

Top 10 Nappy Headed Hoes of Hollywood

Top 10 Nappy Headed Hoes of Hollywood

Having grown up in New York, I could have told you that Don Imus was a douche bag. But no, you didn’t listen to me. You had to find out the hard way. Now everyone but the Rutger’s women’s basketball team has their jock straps (or whatever they wear) up in a bunch about a little racially insensitive comment. Have you ever listened to Howard Stern? This could be a lot worse.

But I’m not here to talk about Don Imus or racism in the media, I am here to talk about the finest Liquorish Ladies of La-la Land, the most Bodacious Black Bootied Beauties. I am here to give you, America (and the rest of the world) my Top 10 Nappy Headed Hoes of Hollywood. Let’s do this.

300

300

Modern cinema seems to have found in the cinematographic adaptation of well known comics (such as Batman begins, X-men and many others) a new audience for its blockbusters, avid of fast-paced action and eye-catching visuals. Frank Miller’s works (Sin City, and now 300), characterized by very stark visuals and compelling story lines, comes as a perfect source of material for director Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead).

AFI Film Fest – Nov. 1 – 12

Being a film critic in Los Angeles two things are for certain: you are jaded and you are burnt-out. You write so many negative reviews that the venom seeps into your soul until you can no longer recognize yourself. The last time you saw Originality was; well hell it was a long, long time ago.

The Wicker Man

The Wicker Man

The Wicker Man is a remake of the 1973 version written by Anthony Shaffer and directed by Robin Hardy. The 2006 version of Wicker Man is directed by Neil LaBute (The Shape of Things), staring Nicolas Cage (World Trade Center) reads like a bad dime store police novel at first. The clich©s are so predictable, you find yourself mouthing along at times. But not to worry, Nicolas Cage carries the movie through the rough patches.
