Movies that suck, continued


There’s a new teaser trailer for Constantine, the extremely loose adaptation of Hellblazer that stars Keanu Reeves as an American occult investigator in Atlanta. Who carries some kind of gold cross-shaped shotgun-thingy with a rotary magazine, that he occasionally lights with an eldritch Zippo.

I’m going by the teaser here, because I refuse to have anything to do with this turkey. It’s not a question of “will it suck?”, but “precisely how much will it suck?”. Based on the sub-Keanu-grade acting in the teaser, I think it’s going to be the worst comic-book movie yet. And it may hold the title for several years.

Career burnout in 5... 4... 3...


“The Rock” is set to star in Spy Hunter, a movie based on the classic arcade game, possibly directed by John Woo.

Dungeons and Dragons 2?!?


I refuse to believe that the original turkey made enough money to justify a sequel.

The Clone Wars


Why does every girl in this film look like a cheap knockoff of some other recently-popular teen actress? Or do they all look like that these days?

What the FUCK?!?


Could someone please explain to me how the film shown in this trailer could possibly deserve the title I, Robot? Or even how they managed to pull this story out of Asimov’s legacy? “Sci-fi action thriller suggested by the classic short story collection”, my ass!

Adding insult to injury, the official movie site is a steaming pile of Flash.

Fun with subtitles


Pardon me while I giggle myself to death:

Bon Voyage

Bond franchise doomed, film at 11.


Latest rumor is that Britney Spears wants to be the next Bond girl.

I suppose the only sane response is to hold a competition to name her character. I nominate Trampona Streetcorner.

Suddenly, I regret my LASIK surgery...


…because it means I cannot remove my glasses to blur out horrible sights.

Starsky and Hutch, the movie, starring Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, and Snoop Dogg. Adding insult to injury, it’s A new comedy from the director of “Old School” and “Road Trip”.

The less said about The Son of The Mask, the better. Gouging out your own eyeballs with a spoon will be the summer fad, I think.
