check out the info on Glee's Madonna episode

Thank you to spoilertv.com for the best info all the time.
I'm a huge Glee fan, like so many of you, and this episode looks to be one of the best ever.

The Glee cast has been hard at work on their special Madonna-themed episode, featuring several of the Material Girl's most memorable hits. "We're singing like nine Madonna songs," says Cory Monteith, who plays Finn.


Word is Jayma Mays, who plays Emma, will dress provocatively and sing "Like A Virgin" with one of two other characters. All Jayma would confirm is that her song is "very appropriate and fitting for my character." Does Jayma think Emma's yet to to touched for the very first time? "If they said my character's a virgin I wouldn't be surprised."

Lea Michele says he character, Rachel, will be wearing on of Madonna's signature looks. "Growing up, Madonna was my biggest icon," raves Lea. "She's amazing."

But the biggest news about this episode is that wicked Sue Sylvester will be singing "Vogue" in a fantasy sequence - and wearing Madonna infamous cones over her breasts. "I'm having a lot of fittings for this Madonna video we're doing," says Jane Lynch, who plays Sue. "We're basically doing it frame for frame."

Why's Sue singing "Vogue"? Jane says, "You're going to find out that Sue wants to get a makeover."

Avatar wins a Golden Globe

So, when I saw that Avatar won a Golden Globe, I figured it would be for their technical achievments, which would not surprise me in the least. However, when I heard it was for best drama, my jaw hit the floor. Don't the Golden Globe people know sci-fi movies don't win awards? It's in the rules somewhere that for some reason, sci-fi movies are kinda like that weird, smelly uncle at awards shows. Not last night, however, last night, Avatar was front and center for one of the biggest awards, and the biggest upset of the night.

So, this got me to thinking...does Avatar have a shot at the stuffier Academy Awards show in a few months? My first anwser would be no, but as Avatar still continues to dominate the box office week after week, while winning a friggin' Golden Globe, my "no" is starting to get a little shakier. Now, as long as Clint Eastwood doesn't come out with some more Oscar crap, it's possible James Cameron's smelly uncle could shine on Oscar night.

So, what do you think, does Avatar deserve the gold?

What an idea: Nemesis

Over at ScreenRant, they always have interesting articles, but one caught my eye today. The article talks about Frank Miller coming out with a graphic novel with a very simplistic idea, yet no one has really thought about it: what if Bruce Wayne decided to be a Joker instead of a Dark Knight?

Yeah, it blew my mind too. Apparently, the book easily shows the fine line between the two characters and has a rich guy who snaps after his parents are murdered and goes for total anarchy; the only thing stopping him are the people of the city.

According to the article, there are already several directors looking to get their hands on the project. Given the success of Miller's other adaptations, Watchmen and Wanted, I wouldn't blame them.

Anywho, cool idea, huh? What do you think? Good movie idea or too abstract?

Who should play Peter Parker/Spiderman in the reboot?

Fantasy Casting time!!!

With the news out that Tobey Maguire and Spiderman are no longer synonomous, there is talk throughout Hollywood as to who could be next to put on the red and blue tights. There have been whispers of everyone from Zac Efron to Justin Timberlake, so lets take a look at my pick, and see if you have an idea of your own.


My pick has already solidified himself in several franchise movies already. For my pick, 2009 was a busy year, he played a young, futuristic Kyle Reese in Terminator Salvation, and was one of the only good things in that movie. He also went boldly where no one has gone before in Star Trek as Pavel Checkov. I’m talking about Charlie Bartlett himself, Anton Yelchin.

The guy clearly has some idea of how to act, and he looks like he could easily pick up a high school-era Peter Parker, which is what the film is shooting for, and he has already shown he can handle the comedy when it comes around.

I’m not a fan of a reboot, I think it’s too soon, and a terrible idea to take the character dark and gritty, but if they do, this is my pick. Anyone else have any ideas?

Netflix streaming is coming to the Wii

Yay, the wonderful Netflix that allows customers to watch some movies instantly is coming to the Nintendo Wii console this spring. Like the PS3, users will have to put in a disc that allows them to use the service, but as long as you have the monthly subscription, there is no additional charge.

This is great news if you don't have an X-Box or PS3, as it allows users even more laziness. Now, you don't even have to get off the couch to go to the mailbox, it's right at the remote. Now, what would be cool is if you could use the motion control to kill off some of the characters. Yes, there are a few in mind!

Spiderman 4 is dead

SPIDERMAN 4 IS DEAD

You read that correctly, Spiderman 4 is no more. This comes on the heals of news that John Malkovich would be playing The Vulture in the next movie with Tobey Maguire dawning the tights for another go-round.

/Film is now reporting that Sam Raimi has left the project, along with Tobey Maguire, and that Sony has a script ready for a series reboot, having Peter Parker as a younger teenager. The move, according to /Film is said to be one of creative differences over the villain, which is the problem (amongst others) that plagued the third movie. So, with Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire removed, the studio seems to have drastically cut the production costs of the movie; but at what cost to the fans?

Now, Sony will be asking us to forget the movies that broke box office records, and put the friendly neighborhood Spiderman into our hearts as they prepare for a “dark and grittier” Spiderman similar to Batman Begins.

While the movie may turn out to be good, as Batman Begins was, I am more than a little hesitant. Sure, the third movie stunk to high cinematic heaven, but I was interested to see what Raimi could do with another chance, given his realization of the mistakes he made. I also really liked the first two movies, and considering those bought him some sort of leeway, I was willing to give the benefit of the doubt.

A reboot, however, very rarely works. I could say there are only two exceptions that come to mind; Star Trek and Batman. I think you only need to go as far back as 2008, and Edward Norton’s Incredible Hulk. Sure, it wasn’t a bad movie, but it hardly turned heads, and it hardly made waves at the box office.

So, what do you think of a rebooted franchise and a dark and grittier Spiderman? Turn it loose in the comments section!

apparently, when the zombie apocolypse came, this guy turned to Twitter

Yeah, you heard me correctly. Film School Rejects has a story up about a guy in Miami who is tweeting his way through the zombie apocolypse; he even has pictures! I know!
Anyway, this seems to be really interesting, and a possible reason to get Twitter, finally. Could be fun to follow the daily adventures of a guy running from the undead.

Check out the story over at Film School Rejects, one of my favorite film sites.

The Phantom Menace review that puts all other reviews to shame...

and here is the review of the review that....well, you get the idea.
The 70-minute review takes an in-depth look at The Phantom Menace and is very entertaining, too. So, click here for my review and the videos themselves.

You don't have to thank me, it's what I do!

CL's review of the review:

Kick Ass trailer.... well, it Kicks Ass...duh!

Check out the trailer. I personally loved the trailer featuring Hit Girl. This trailer is really good, though.

A-Team Trailer

I know everyone is excited to see the new A-Team movie. So, here it is, with Liam Neeson, Sharlto Copley (District 9), Bradley Cooper (The Wedding Crashers, and Hangover) and Rampage Jackson.

Warner Bros delays Netflix rentals

Are you looking through the upcoming DVD’s to pickup through Netflix, deciding which one to get first? Well, as of this month, you may have to wait quite a bit longer before you can get that magical red envelope in your mailbox.

Netflix just announced a deal with Warner Bros. in an effort to increase DVD sales for studios who complain their profits are waning. With this new deal, Redbox and Netflix won’t be able to rent movies until the movies have been available for purchase for 28 days. The studios are hoping inpatient people like me will forgo the usual rental and buy the DVD.

There is an upside for Netflix and the consumer. With this new deal, Netflix is looking at receiving more copies, and a much larger selection of movies for their instant viewing feature, which Netflix is really pushing on Blue-Ray players and game consoles. With a larger selection, the service could really carry a bit more weight.

Currently, Redbox is fighting this in court, but Netflix seems to have found a bright spot for them, and has accepted this new idea, and looks to give more incentive to their instant viewing audience.

So, the big question is, how long before other studios follow suit?

Let us know what you think, will this result in you buying more DVD’s, or will you simply wait the extra month to rent them?

George Friggin' Lucas...on the Daily Show!

That's right, this video is like a dream come true. Two of my favorite people in the same room. George Lucas is plugging his new book, which looks pretty interesting, and we have Jon Stewart start right off jokingly grilling him about a plot hole in The Phantom Menace. Lucas's attitude thought, I think is great, where he basically said "it's a movie, if you don't like it, well, whatever." Jon Stewarts quote though goes down in infamy: "my son said The Phantom Menace is his favorite, and I told him no its not!"

Avatar pulls in the dough

I imagine James Cameron is somewhere dancing and saying "nanee nanee boo-boo" and maybe saying "and who thought I wouldn't make my budget back, bitches!" Because when Avatar's budget of nearly $500 million was announced, people cringed, and whinced and said there is no way the movie would make back its money. Well, the most expensive movie ever made just hit the billion dollar mark in 17 days, and it shows no sign of stopping.

In fact, James Cameron is the only director to have not one, but two films smash the billion dollar mark.

The film largly needs to be thanking IMAX for its rediculously over-inflated ticket prices. While that is the best place to watch the masterpiece that is Avatar, $13 per person is a bit steep.

So, anyone want to wager on it beating Titanic for the top grossing film of all time.

Sherlock Holmes (2009) review

Guy Ritchie, of Lock, Stock & 2 Smokin’ Barrels fame has unleashed Sherlock Holmes on the film going world, and the British sleuth may never be the same again. With actors like Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law and Rachel McAdams starring in this movie, what could go wrong?

The movie starts off brilliantly by not going back to baby Sherlock or some other nonsensical origin story and instead drops us right into the middle of one of Sherlock Holmes fantastical adventures with Watson in tow. The wonderful pair are trying to stop Lord Blackwood from killing a woman. After Blackwood is captured, and hung, that is when the real story begins.

The trailer portrays Downey’s Holmes as a bit of a brawler, but that is only half right. While he does get into quite a few fantastically choreographed fights, the camera goes into Sherlock’s head, as we see the observation skills put to use as he plans out the outcome of each calculated blow. This, and many other parts show the amazing observational skills of the main character as they provide much more than a parlor trick.

The real jewel of the movie is not the action scenes which were fun, and it wasn’t the incredibly hot Rachel McAdams, it was the chemistry and witty banter between Holmes and Watson. The dialogue, which Guy Ritchie is so well known is on perfect display here and shows how talented Downey and Law are. It also shows the bickering and witty banter that comes from two characters who enjoy eachother's company, and maybe who spend a bit too much time together.

While the movie was very entertaining, it played very much like an episode of Psych, one of my favorite TV shows, where the observative detective goes through clues the rest of the audience can’t put together and strings along his partner to a fantastic conclusion and a wrap up for the rest of us who couldn’t figure out the clues. While the format of the movie was very basic, and simple, and maybe a bit clichéd, it was the execution that was nearly flawless.

Overall, the movie was very enjoyable, and a fun ride at the theaters on a cold day. I enjoyed how they set up the second movie, much the same as Batman Begins. I think, provided everyone returns, we could see a similar outstanding second act to a possibly incredible trilogy.

Overall, 7 out of 10.


FUN FACT: The set for Sherlock Holmes's home in this film was previously used as Sirius Black's home in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007).
