Slashfilm posts the top 10 movies that made a lot of money but shouldn't haveby RickMacMerc (Elsewhere on the internet)Zach Lawrence over at Slashfilm has posted a deliciously snarky run down of 10 films that undeservedly succeeded at the box office.

Do you miss Brent Spiner? Well, CBS might have a show to fit what you're jonesing after.

Evidently, Stephen Sommers had been attached to the project but had recently let it slide in order to take on Fox's A Night at the Museum. Sommers had signed on as director, writer and producer it is unknown as to whether Spielberg will assume all those roles as well. 618 reads Aeon Flux trailer postedby RickMacMerc (Elsewhere on the internet)I knew keeping an eye on Apple's movie trailers page would pay off. They posted the new Aeon Flux Trailer. Of course, you're going to need Quicktime to view it. It's pretty easy to make explosions, special effects and heroic dialog entertain for two minutes, here's hoping when the rest of the movie is assembled that it is equally exciting. 626 reads Send a Bony Mail from The Land of the Deadby RickMacMerc (Elsewhere on the internet)As a little promotion for Tim Burton's upcoming film, Corpse Bride, a flash site has been set up to allow you to send a creepy animated Bony Mail from The Land of the Dead. Use the skeletal hand to write your message on the dusty mirror and send it to your friend. The link that will be emailed will take your unsuspecting chum to a page where that undead hand will mysteriously write your message before his unbelieving eyes. Good for a laugh I guess. 684 reads A Dame to Kill For: Miller confirms subject of Sin City sequelby RickMacMerc (Entertainment News)In an exclusive interview with Now Playing Magazine, Frank Miller states that the Sin City sequel in the works will be based on his book, A Dame to Kill For 649 reads Name the Spoilers Movie Screen Logos Quiz #1by RickMacMerc (Site News)Test out your movie logo skills on our new quiz based on the logos that randomly display at the top of the Spoilers web site.

Good luck! read more | 3212 reads Sin City: Spoilers Podcast 003by RickMacMerc (Podcasts NTSC)Just over two hours of commentary. Our latest podcast on the site. Days after the DVD hit the streets. Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's comic anthology film noir. Sin City they call it. I'm staring at the cover. It smells like movies ought to smell ...uhm ...uhr.*cough* Okay, enough with the hard-boiled monologue for now. Yes, our latest commentary is for Sin City, the movie based on Frank Miller's graphic novel's "The Customer's Always Right," "That Yellow Bastard," "The Hard Goodbye," and "The Big Fat Kill." If you liked the flick, they're well worth the read ...although you'll soon realize, you've seen them faithfully recreated by Rodriguez here. Sin City is rated R for sustained strong stylized violence, nudity and sexual content including dialogue. But notably, though Sin City has very adult themes and wonderfully strong dialog it doesn't have a lot of strong language...very little in the way of swearing. It fact they use the exclamation "yeesh" more often than any other. read more | 28668 reads
