Ugh! I'm sick of adverts telling us films like this are "by" Tim Burton. The film wasn't "by" Tim Burton, nor was it "from" Tim Burton, he funded it. He didn't write it, he didn't direct it, he just produced it and that usually involves funding it or adverts to make it more well known. It's not the first time a film has been misleading in telling us things like the film...

Paramount Pictures wants to reward all of the internet moviegoers which helped make Paranormal Activity a viral phenomenon. Sure, some might argue that the marketing campaign was a very calculated attempt to make it feel like the audience "made the success" of the movie, and those people might not be wrong (but who cares? really...). Paramount is now taking that marketing concept to the release...

For months, I've had so much coming at me, that I just keep treading water, and eventually, I just started floating and watching it all go by, responding only to those things that demanded my response. It's just about getting from here to there. I'm not unhappy, I'm just tired. When your husband's job consumes your lives for 36 months, you just have to be grateful for what it gives you, and wait all...

Those wacky Twilight books are being adapted again. This time, as Barbie dolls . Entertainment Weekly has "first look" photos of the film version of Diary of a Wimpy Kid , and honestly...meh.

of The Lord of the Rings by Richard C Cook richardccook.com (May 24 2007) The film trilogy The Lord of the Rings , produced by Peter Jackson of New Zealand, ranked with Star Wars as one of the most popular cinematic events of all time.

Isn't weird that even though a movie makes lots of money and is considered a huge success, no one wants to see a sequel. And yet movies that barely make any money somehow get sequels that no one wants (e.g. Ghost Rider)? Well, the good news is that we probably won't see a District 9 sequel for a few years. That's good because I don't want a sequel to be rushed into production. But it's also bad because...
