Currently Browsing: "Samuel L Jackson"

Looks like my man Tommy Lee Jones just can’t stay away from the works of Cormac McCarthy, as he is slated to direct and star alongside Sam Jackon in an adaptation of McCarthy’s play Sunset Limited for HBO.

If that title didn’t get your blood boiling, try out my alternate title of “Samuel L. Jackson Continues to Get Work,” and see how that suits you. I don’t know much about this forthcoming flick, but I have a feeling that Detective Disaster Zondi is not going to be a fan of snakes.

It’s been a few days, sure, but you know that you can’t resist another wonderfully packed edition of the Early Edition…

The folks at People and On Location News have a few snaps for us today of some semi-interesting things happening on the set of Iron Man 2, including Robert Downey Jr. in a familiar red suit and Samuel L. Jackson in a familiar eye patch.

Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios have announced new release dates for their upcoming projects, culminating with The Avengers in 2012.

Jackson will be taking time out between the eleventy-billion Marvel films he needs to make in order to tackle an incredibly difficult subject matter.

After spending something like a minute and a half as Nick Fury after the credits of Iron Man, Sam Jackson was in. He probably didn’t know it at the time, but neither Marvel Studios or the fans would ever let that character go. It’s just how these things go.

Profanity is no longer a problem in today’s society. Instead of the censors clipping around real swear words, they’re on the look-out for the new seven dirty words, the heavy seven that will infect your soul, curve your spine and keep the country from winning the war on terror.

Now we know what happens when you attempt to shaft Shaft.

The Devil Wears Prada actress might be pulling double duty as the Russian bad ass we know and love as Black Widow.

Kevin and Neil bring on the fruitcake with their big, fat Christmas special. They question the correlation between Nazis and Christmas with the release of Valkyrie and The Spirit.

When you think of Christmas, what comes to mind? Is it visions of sugar plums dancing in your head? Is it the thought of your favorite holiday movie being aired 57 times on television? Apparently for Hollywood, Nazis come to mind when they think of Christmas.

Frank Miller’s latest directorial effort goes all-out for the camp and ends up in the toilet.

Over the course of the past few months we’ve been very critical of Frank Miller’s The Spirit. Beginning with the first teaser trailer and continuing well into our Comic-Con coverage, we’ve been less than excited about the footage that has been shown. And by less excited, I am referring to the way we’ve ripped it apart.

Kevin Carr looks at the slate of films in theaters this week with the FSR Report Card.

Kevin and Neil reconnect in the Virtual Studio in the Sky. Neil insists it’s still magic while Kevin revels in the fact he can do the show in his underwear.

It’s official. Samuel L. Jackson will get more than just a cameo in the next Iron Man – hopefully a lot more.

“This movie is not a tribute to Will Eisner, its a tribute to The Spirit.” So says Frank Miller of his upcoming film adaptation, which oddly enough is called The Spirit.

They are the badasses of badass. But they are aging quickly–some well, some not so well. And while they should all still be kicking ass and not bothering to take names for twenty plus years to come, it’s getting late in the game to find the up-and-coming actors who can fill their shoes.

After letting down fans with Lady in the Water and The Happening, director M. Night Shyamalan is considering Unbreakable 2, which begs the question, if it isn’t broke then why fix it?
