If you planned on seeing it before, are you less likely to now? If you didn’t plan on seeing it before, could positive critical reaction have changed your mind?

Judging by their output for Star Trek, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and The Proposal all in one summer, it seems like screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman don’t sleep. And they won’t get to anytime soon. We caught them not napping in order to ask them about writing for Michael Bay and their upcoming Cowboys and Aliens.

This week, on a very special Reject Radio, we discuss the finer points of Bea Arthur’s genius while attempting futilely to discuss Year One and the world of remakes taking over theaters like something that really effectively takes over something. Like Genghis Khan.

Well, we have quite a number of stories to report this weekend and I guess the biggest one is the surprisingly strong showing of The Hangover, which exceeded expectations and just about toppled Up from first place this weekend.

Paramount just released several new G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra images into the wild. You’d think they’d send them out with more protection than electric drills and bad wigs right?

A Japanese fansite got its hands on a super crazy amount of new Harry Potter images. Hopefully your internet tubes reach all the way to Asia.

If it’s hot where you live, but you still feel like you haven’t gotten all you can out of summer and it’s relentless, unforgiving, soul-crushing heat, here are ten movies you can watch that’ll help change your mind and keep you indoors.

Mouse CEO Robert Iger is lamenting the decision to throw Prince Caspian onto the big screen in the middle of a crowded blockbusting summer. Apparently sales for the film aren’t up to snuff because of its May 16th release date.

While Iron Man may have crushed Speed Racer in last week’s box office grand prix, the man in metal will most likely be slain handily by Disney’s family fantasy adventure The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.

Kevin and Neil talk about how What Happens in Vegas was surprisingly decent and how Speed Racer almost gave Neil an aneurysm. There’s also plenty of baby stories… and poo.

For a culture inundated with awards shows and general bouts of celebrities patting themselves on the back, it’s nice to see that the MTV Movie Awards is still relevant.

Even without seeing The Dark Knight, we’ve known for a while that a lot of the story is coming from the best Batman origin stories. Christopher Nolan and Heath Ledger both mentioned “The Killing Joke” as Joker inspiration, and the focus on Harvey Dent makes “The Long Halloween” an obvious choice for source material.

Speed Racer is a movie to experience, not just a movie to watch. It’s a complete package with campy humor, thrilling action sequences, and emotional dramatics – all delivered through the unparalleled visual style of The Wachowski Brothers.

Robert Fure was lucky enough to find himself in a packed theater catching an elusive early glimpse of one of the summer’s most anticipated films: Iron Man. Take an in-depth look into one of summer’s most promising films.

The weekend is here. That means it’s time to sit back, relax and enjoy the Best of the Rejects.

Kevin needs to hose down the Magical Studio in the Sky after Neil’s excitement for Iron Man. Then they both rant about Dr. McDreamy in Made of Honor. That’s how we roll when we kick off the summer movie season.

I just got back from a relatively short road trip with our illustrious Executive Editor Neil Miller. That meant more than four hours in a car with him and non-stop talk about Iron Man.

In most jobs, if you don’t produce quality work for a third of the year, you get fired. In Hollywood, however, you twiddle your thumbs and wait for Summer.

This week’s editor’s blog is a two partner. In fact, its two parts would normally be completely unrelated, but thanks to my wicked skills and my intense laziness, I am going to somehow tie these two thoughts together.

There is nothing like a brand new Iron Man video to start off your early morning. That is, especially if the video is full of… you guessed it, badassness.
