It's far from my favorite Cherie Priest book, but Boneshaker as a Hammer Film? Yeah, I'll see that. 

I read last night on Tor.com that Ray Bradbury's Dandelion Wine might be making it's way to the big screen. Funnily enough, I also just finished listening to Dandelion Wine yesterday (albeit, read by a different reader than the one mentioned in the article, but one I enjoy listening to). And I'm left wondering...huh? How are they going to pull that ( Read more... )

Not sure who he's avenging, but the look works very well for me!

I've been reading Captain America: Winter Soldier over the last week or so - about an issue/chapter during my coffee break. With all the things I'm hearing about this production (Bucky Barnes, Cosmic Cube, etc.) I'm really very curious how much of that storyline will work in to this ( Read more... )

I mean, if he actually does get cast in Dark Knight Rises? Look at him. Dude is Dick Grayson. Or should be. Boy Wonder or Nightwing, I don't care.

Yeah, he'll probably be someone else - Hugo Strange, one of Bane's stooges, or just Cop #2. And I'm pretty sure Nolan has said he doesn't want Robin in his movies.

But still. Dude should be Dick Grayson.

I read today that Keanu Reeves and the Wachowski Brothers are contemplating going back to make another Matrix movie, maybe even two. They're talking to people like James Cameron about re-inventing special effects again yada yada yada.

This got me thinking. I love the first Matrix movie. It was a cool story with amazing special effects. The second ( Read more... )

So you might've heard about some upcoming comic book movie adaptations:

Batman 3: All the rampant rumors about who was going to play who in Nolan's Batman 3 were driving me nuts, so thank God they finally confirmed some casting. Intrigued by Tom Hardy as Bane. Kind of surprised Nolan's going the Catwoman route, TBH. Not exactly sure how Anne ( Read more... )

Well, kind of. Tim Powers has confirmed to Locus Magazine that PotC 4: On Stranger Tides is indeed an adaptation of sorts of his book. So, YAY, Disney, and YAY Tim Powers.

Locus says about PotC: On Stranger Tides:

The fit is an obvious one, as On Stranger Tides is about a pirate named Jack who goes in search of the Fountain of Youth.

I say, after I ( Read more... )

There are certain truths the reader may not know about me, which may come as a surprise. One such truth is that I love Jane Austen. I find her to be smart, candid, often hysterical and poignant (especially when writing conversations). More than all, I feel as if she understands it.

(Whatever it may be.)

I'm also inclined to believe I will like the ( Read more... )

Brett Ratner will be directing a feature film version of Rob Liefeld's Youngblood. This is bad bad bad, folks. Generally, I don't think we've hit the saturation point in this genre, but news like this makes me reconsider.

Still, credit where credit is due: great choices all around. When you have one of the most limp, forgettable, story-parched ( Read more... )

"I'm the best I am at what I do. Sometimes what I do isn't that nice..."

I am a HUGE fan of Wolverine.  I loved the way Hugh Jackman played him in the first two X-Men movies.

Rogue: "Does it hurt when they come out?"

Logan: "Everytime."

I hated what the Rat did to him and the other X-Men in the third film.  With Jackman returning to the part for ( Read more... )
