Ladies and gentleman, meet the up-and-comer who will be playing the next Franklin D. Roosevelt: Bill Murray! Join as after the jump to share your thoughts on this surprise casting choice.

Posted on March 30, 2011 by | Leave a comment

In a presentation Tuesday at CinemaCon, Disney/Pixar announced that their forthcoming 2012 sequel to the Oscar-winning Monsters, Inc. will be called Monsters University , and is actually a pre quel to the original exploring the origins of the friendship between Mike (Billy Crystal) and Sulley (John Goodman). Stars Crystal and Goodman are expected to return along with Steve Buscemi as rival scream-collector Randall Boggs, while a writer and director have yet to be named. Cue the college movie cliché conjecture! What familiar campus experiences might our heroes face — and what do monsters hang on doorknobs if they don’t wear socks? [ THR , First Showing ]

Help Caption This Leaked Harry Potter Picture Of Daniel Radcliffe Walking Away

Posted on March 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Yesterday we saw a little peek of him softshoeing his way into our hearts , but today’s entry in All Things Daniel Radcliffe focuses on his raison d’être, Harry Potter. A new leaked still from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 shows Harry grimly walking away from a scene of absolute destruction — is it the grounds at Hogwarts? Whose bodies are strewn upon the ground? Does anyone else imagine the sad walking away music from the old Incredible Hulk playing? Put on your sorting thinking caps and give poor ol’ Harry the caption he deserves. [ ONTD ]

Next On The Deathless List Of Franchise Reboots: Child’s Play

Posted on March 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Take a good look at the pile of 80s remake effluvia that includes Red Dawn , Footloose and Robocop , and then throw another turd on the barbie: MGM has announced plans to remake the Child’s Play ‘s film series, starring Chucky the homicidal doll. Must we? No one will claim that the original Child’s Play was any great work of art, but is there any reason to update it and remake for today’s audience other than a stirring need for cash? Besides which, do kids today even play with dolls anymore? Shouldn’t it be about a demonic Nintendo DS that comes to life and starts snapping shut (demonically!) on people’s fingers? Brad Dourif, the original voice of Chucky, is slated to return, as is the creator of the whole series, Don Mancini, to write and possibly direct. God only knows what Oprah will have to eat to get through this one . Just to stir your nostalgia, the original Child’s Play trailer is below. [ /Film ]

Lady luminaries such as Rachel McAdams, Jessica Biel and Kristin Stewart were reportedly in contention but three-time Academy Award-nominee Adams edged them all out. So what can we expect from Adams’ Lois Lane?
