Movie News Today

Sorry for the lack of News this week. Busy at work and exhausted by the Mavs playing in the Finals. Sometimes you only have time for one hobby and the Mavs are rocking my free time right now.

Leonardo DiCaprio is in talks for the role of the villain in Tarantino's upcoming spaghetti western "Django." Now if only Will Smith would definitely join the project!

The new "Daredevil" project has a writer who will base his script on a Frank Miller storyline and hopefully make us all forget Ben Affleck's turn as the title hero.

Film Girl Interrupted takes a look back at a true foreign language marvel, "Pan's Labyrinth." In other news, I almost never spell "labyrinth" correctly the first time around.

Cinema Slants discusses Roger Ebert and asks whether the famed film critic has lost some of his passion for the industry. Well written, excellent read.

Virgin Media provides a guide to the Marvel universe for all you would-be nerds out there.

  1. I'm not really expecting Hawkeye to don the purple tights in Avengers. In fact, since I started typing this I have found confirmation. This is your Hawkeye in the upcoming Avengers film:

    Glad to see it. I like him better as a former regular S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who gets bumped up to Avengers status for his extraordinary field work.

  2. Definitely an improvement. Renner may end up stealing that film.
