The second trailer for Alan Moore’s “Watchmen” is online now. Directed by Zack Snyder, the graphic novel-turned-movie hits theaters March 6, 2009. Looks darn intense, doesn’t it?

The one I’m probably most psyched about is “Iron Man 2,”, and the least? Eh, “GI Joe: Rise of Cobra” doesn’t really do much for me, but that might change. How about you?

Well, whoever said that superhero movies and Pulitzer Prize winners don’t mix? David Lindsay-abaire is putting that myth to rest!
The man behind the hit show “Rabbit Hole,” is in talks to write the screenplay for Spider-Man 4.

“The Incredible Hulk” hits store and cyber-shelves tomorrow, and I’ve got a few clips of the bonus features. We really did like the movie in this household, and just watched it again on DVD. Though the storyline lacks a little something, the special effects are awesome. And the 3-Disc Special Edition DVD features over two […]
