Superhero films are hot right now, and with his appearances in both Ghost Rider and Kick-Ass, it’s well known that Nic Cage likes superhero films, so it should come as no surprise that Cage has signed on to make a sequel to Ghost Rider. The news comes our way via Bloody Disgusting that Columbia is hunting for writers for the sequel and that Cage is attached to return. The ending of the original Ghost Rider has Cage’s Johnny Blaze riding away from his one true love to continue using his “curse” to fight off the minions of Mephisto and his son Blackheart, so the door was always open for a sequel....

Glenn Powell has been on the verge of stardom for quite some time. Probably since he starred in one of the best Netflix rom-coms: Set It Up. He can be cocky, he can be funny, he can be romantic, and he has a natural charm that always makes you want to root for his characters. If Top Gun: Maverick had been released in 2019, as it was originally planned, he would already be a sought-after star (and probably a superhero)....

Your high school literature teacher can finally trash her DVD of 1998’s Great Expectations, which starred Gwyneth Paltrow as Estella, Ethan Hawke as Pip (renamed Finnegan Bell for whatever reason), and Anne Bancroft as an updated Miss Havisham. A new version of this classic Charles Dickens novel is on the way, and it bypasses the hip, updated nature of the last remake for something more akin to the actual book. Directed by Mike Newell (Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time), this new Great Expectations promises to be the most accurate representation of the written word ever brought to the screen....

Whew, it’s good to be back kids. 7 weeks without Heroes is almost unbearable - so unbearable in fact, I ran straight into the arms of an old flame, a mysterious lover known as Lost, but that’s another story. Anyway, we return with Chapter 19: ‘.07%’ which starts with Mr. Bennet stuck in his cell at Primatech Paper. A distressed Claire runs in dressed in her cheerleading uniform, but Bennet isn’t buying it for a second - and for good reason:...

I remember being on both sides of the Barney phenomenon: avidly watching it with my cousins on the one hand, and then witness and party to the hateful crusade against it on the other. It wasn’t that it was just cool to trash Barney, and as kids there seemed to be no perceptible reason for it. It was simply the way things were: the sky was blue, Bill Clinton was president, and Barney sucked....

DreamWorks Animation has hired screenwriter couple Joe Syracuse and Lisa Addario to write a new film with the working title Imaginary Enemies from an idea that originated at an internal DWA retreat a few years ago. Shrek Forever After director Mike Mitchell is developing the project with the writers, but he is not on board to direct at the moment. The germ of the concept was that the imaginary friend trope had been played out in so many ways already that the truly original approach would be the concept of the imaginary enemy....

Blockbuster scored a winning blow recently in it’s ongoing battle with online renter Netflix. In a story from The Hollywood Reporter, “Blockbuster won the latest battle in its legal war against Netflix when a judge Tuesday denied the latter its motion to dismiss the former’s countersuit against it.” Everything kicked off last April when Netflix brought a suit against Blockbuster for “copying the model Netflix created for a subscription DVD-by-mail service....

Adapted from a play by Ins Choi, CBC’s Kim’s Convenience quickly became one of Canada’s most beloved sitcoms.
