It might be a few more weeks until it’s finished, but the highly anticipated script goes to Paramount soon.

Greg Mottola (Superbad, Adventureland, and the upcoming Paul) has been hired to adapt Leanne Shapton’s eclectically-titled book, “Important Artifacts And Personal Property From The Collection Of Lenore Doolan And Harold Morris, Including Books, Street Fashion And Jewelry,” into a film for Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman. The title will probably be shortened before it hits theaters…

Dreamworks Animation has released the first teaser trailer for their upcoming film Megamind, which will release on November 5, 2010. The film — like so many Dreamworks releases — sports a pretty big name voice cast. Will Ferrell will voice the title character, an evil mastermind bent on world destruction.

Could this Tom Robbins journey through immortality and beets be Oscar-caliber? You’re damned right it could.

This week, I am taking a little guest spot here in one of my favorite new FSR columns, Print to Projector. Because like Dr. Abaius, I sometimes read. And like Dr. Abaius, I also sometimes put down a book that I’ve just read — and somewhat understood — and say “hey, this should be a movie.” With that in mind, I would like to submit this entry…

A quick poll of folks around the Reject HQ offices this morning shows that no one thinks that rebooting Mr. and Mrs. Smith is a good idea. That was to be expected. I’m the only one here at the moment and I think it’s probably the dumbest idea I’ve seen since about an hour ago. However, I’m willing to give this story a shot. Lets check out the details.

Summit Entertainment takes their vampire lust to the next level, combining a Sons of Anarchy star, a badass real-life legend and Brad Pitt. What could possibly go wrong?

Brad Pitt could be heading toward the Bermuda Triangle, where only darkness and danger await him.

The true-ish story of Chuck Barris, who wrote pop songs, hosted games shows, and killed people for a living. (And the movie where Michael Cera tries to convince a girl his penis tastes like strawberry).

Three months before the first one hits theaters, Warner Bros. is already prepping to make a second Sherlock Holmes film with Robert Downey Jr. in the title role.

The folks over at PosterWire have published something very, very cool this week — an unused illustration for Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds by James Goodridge.

The weekend is upon us once again, and with that comes a new batch of movies. Which of course, leads us to this weekend’s open movie review discussion. On tap this week is Quentin Tarantino’s much-anticipated World War II movie Inglourious Basterds.

Kevin Carr breaks down the week’s releases, looking at Inglourious Basterds, Shorts, and Post Grad.

Love him or hate him, Quention Tarantino’s new movie finally hits theaters this weekend. Is it worth your time and money? Is it shit or is it shinola? (And what the hell is shinola?) Do I like it, love it, or loathe it? I can’t reveal the answer here, you have to read the review. But how about a little hint… it may just be Tarantino’s best movie yet. (And notice I didn’t say “since pulp Fiction.”)

Kevin welcomes Neil back to the Magical Studio in the Sky from his emergency “gender re-clarification” surgery in the Netherlands. Neil celebrates his return by not seeing any movies, even though he wanted to see Inglourious Basterds.

Inglourious Basterds has been a project talked about for almost a decade now, living only in the mind of Quentin Tarantino. Finally the film is almost here, and worth the wait. Take a minute though, and listen to a few warnings that come with this film.

Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes film starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law is in pickup shoots right now, and there was rumor that Brad Pitt had flown out there to be a part of the film. Who would he play?

The official Fantastic Fest blog has announced today that Quentin Tarantino’s latest film Inglourious Basterds will be coming to Austin for a premiere event on August 15th.

After some disagreements on the script, and no other takers, Sony has officially killed the project, and Brad Pitt is looking for something else to do.

Today brings us a second full trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds, a movie that is getting mixed reactions from critics — but we’ll be damned if it doesn’t look like a lot of fun.
