by Gumbercules9000 on Feb 2nd, 2012

Hi Bryan Here….

The horror film ‘Insidious’ has been given the go ahead to get a sequel under way.  Leigh Whannell and James Wan (the writer and director of the first ‘Insidious’ and the first ‘Saw’ film) are coming back.  Well at least Whannell has signed on to write and Wan is currently in negotiations to direct again.  Only a matter of time.  Oren Peli (director of Paranormal Activity) will executive produce.

Hi Bryan Here….

You heard that right.  NBC is rebooting the 60′s hit tv series ‘The Munsters’.  The project is being created by ‘Pushing Daisies’ creator Bryan Fuller and ‘X-Men’/'Usual Suspects’ director Bryan Singer.  So to sort of distance themselves from being a a huge reboot, the title is going from ‘The Munsters’ to ‘Mockingbird Lane’.  You know, because the Munsters live on Mockingbird Lane.

Check Out the Trailer for ‘Hunger Games’!!!

by Gumbercules9000 on Feb 2nd, 2012

Hi Bryan Here….

 

Have you read ‘Hunger Games’?  Do you know what ’Hunger Games’ is about?  If not you’re in for a real treat.  ’Hunger Games’ is based on a trilogy of novels by Suzanne Collins.  It’s geared towards young adults.  The premise is a whole lot like ‘Battle Royale’ where a group of young kids or teenagers are picked in a lottery system to battle each other in a designated area until there is only one survivor.  One difference is that it takes place in a post apocalyptic future world.  It all seems too cartoonyAnd it seems that upon its release, it will have the IMAX treatment for one week.  I can see people enjoy this film, but I can guarantee it will hold not candle to Battle Royale.  Enjoy the trailer.

Hi Bryan Here….

This time, I think the commercial is much better.  But my advice…drop the Star Wars and go with Star Trek.  Plus it is always great to hear James Brown in anything.  Volkswagen is doing something right.  Thanks Wade.

It’s brutally impossible to fathom The Doors’ 1971 Elektra Records masterpiece, “L.A. Woman,” is the Los Angeles quartet’s sixth and final album with singer/poet/shaman Jim Morrison, not to mention sounding as fresh and amazing as anything that has come out since, by any band. What’s equally impossible is to hear an album you’ve heard millions of times in your life for the very first time, and yet, “Mr. Mojo Risin’: The Story of L.A. Woman” is a uniquely superb and insightful document chronicling the making-of the band’s storied swan song that allows you to experience this magnificent piece of work for what feels like the very first time (again.)

Hi Bryan Here….

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read that headline over at Variety.  Yes.  There will be a prequel to ‘Jackie Brown’.  The movie, titled ‘Switch’, will focus on the characters Ordell Robbie and Louis Gara once played by Samuel L. Jackson and Robert De Niro in the Tarantino ‘Jackie Brown.  This prequel will take place fifteen years prior to the events of the ‘Jackie Brown’ we know.  And guess who will play a younger Ordell and Louis?
