You know a horror film’s in trouble when the morning-after scene is more satisfying than the “night before.” When the aftermath carries more weight than the chaos. When I spent more time marveling at the production design than getting caught up in the scares.
I love me a good monster yarn, but The Wolfman seems thoroughly confused …
Sony reportedly gutted the Spider-Man franchise of its talent, and scrapped its 2011 release, to further the 3D evolution of film. Rumors said that Raimi didn’t know what to do, or perhaps just didn’t care, about the up-convesion of his fourth Spider-Man. So now Sony’s gone out on a limb with a full reboot, all in hopes of tapping some …
The third installment in Sony’s wildly popular SOCOM: US Navy Seals Fireteam Bravo series ships next Tuesday and today, TECHLAND has an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at how the game was made. I recently sat down with Slant Six, the team that developed Fireteam Bravo 3 in San Francisco and learned just how intense it was to make this …
At some point last year when I was traveling abroad and catching up on Kirkman’s Invincible, I began to wonder why I was being relegated to reading said sequential art on my phone or laptop and not on a dedicated comic book reader. Most publishing companies including the one I’m currently working for has either been underground …
When The Game Was Ours by Larry Bird and Magic Johnson with Jackie MacMullan
A forward who hailed from French Lick
That a Lansing kid thought was a hick
Great rivals in sport
On and off the court
But if they wrote this book I’m St. Nick

Season 6: Episode 3
Allie Townsend: Jack has a sister? His sister was on the island? HUH?
Peter Ha: Do you watch LOST? Claire is his sister.
AT: Yeah, Claire is a halfsie. So they mean Claire? Claire is evil now?
PH: You totally DON’T watch LOST!
AT: Shut up, Ha. I’ll cut you.
So, this week we found out that something …
Because if Christopher Nolan can’t do it, clearly no one can.
Deadline Hollywood is reporting that some super-sized projects are on the way for Christopher Nolan. Aside from prepping for Batman 3, Nolan is now said to be aiding in the attempt to resurrect the Superman franchise.

The Wolfman isn’t the first thriller to take on the “beast within.” For that matter, it’s not even the first werewolf thriller to be called The Wolfman (see: 1941). Yet in some strange way, that’s precisely what I found so refreshing – even fulfilling – about the movie. This is familiar territory. It’s Old School – so much so, …
It is going to be another great week for comics. We have milestone issues, story arc wrap ups, and over seas hijinks. Both the “Enders Game” spinoff series “Command School” and the “Invincible” spinoff series “Atom Eve and Rex Splode” are wrapping up. Dick Grayson faces his worst nightmare while in London. The Punisher and the Kingpin …

Nice Trogdor reference.
I offer this as reparations for having dissed The Dark Crystal on Twitter.
Another solid episode of Chuck, all about swapping out ancient masks at an art museum and then all about counteracting the contraband poison that threatens to kill Sarah and Shaw. Near the end of the episode, as those two poisoned would-be lovebirds comfort one another, Chuck comes running across the museum, stopping dead in his tracks …
Today, Variety wrote that ABC’s FlashForward would endure another kick to the teeth as co-creator David Goyer announced his departure from the show to focus on his film career (though he will stay attached to the show as executive producer.)
Translation: It’s Batman 3 time, kiddies!
Goyer co-wrote 2005’s Batman Begins and also …
