From there we drove a big leg for us down through Auckland in the rain and to the Coromandel peninsula, where we camped in the Kaurango valley in quite a remote spot... It was pretty scenic but we were up early complaining about the van and the uneven cushions and the collapsing bed. We got it fixed at a local garage – they were really helpful – and then we went to hospital to get Jenni's...

The announcement that Quentin Tarantino recently starred in a Japanese Softbank commercial has been making headlines around the web this week, and I am still not quite sure why people are making such a big deal out of it. It's no surprise that QT is somewhat well-versed in Japanese culture and no surprise that he enjoys hamming it up for the camera either. More to the point, I don't think these goofy...

Barry Sonnenfeld, the director of the first two Men In Black films, is said to be attached to the forthcoming sequel and Tropic Thunder writer Etan Cohen is working on the screenplay.

Men in Black 3 was announced back in April, but now it’s moving forward with Etan Cohen, writer of Tropic Thunder penning the script. There’s no word yet on Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones’ involvement, but I can’t imagine they would bring the franchise back without featuring them in some capacity. Tropic Thunder was funny, but Men in [...]

Men in Black was fun, Men in Black 2 was a bit stupid really, mainly because of the reliance on the talking dog and not the characters and relationships, something that made the first so strong. However the idea of switching the characters roles round with the student and teacher roles was rather good. The studio have thought that there's mileage in another Men in Black film for some time, but now...

The George Miller directed pic has been on hold for over two years but filming is expected to start next August in Australia. It's unclear who Theron's character will be but odds are she'll be wearing lots of leather, which should go over well with the target...

Tyrus "Ty" Cobb was an astonishing baseball player, though he was a terrible human being, as this clip suggests. (Warning: the language is not for the young or the timid.) Cobb is a remarkable testimonial to all that, made all the more memorable by Tommy Lee Jones’s superb acting in the title role and support by the always capable Robert Wuhl and Lolita Davidovich.
