Roman Coppola has received some pretty high praise for his collaborative work with director Wes Anderson on the Academy Award nominated MOONRISE KINGDOME in 2012. However, with his solo shot at directing his first feature film, A GLIMPSE INSIDE THE MIND OF CHARLES SWAN III, signs are starting to point toward Coppola’s contribution on “Moonrise” [...]
In a sad bit of news, a new trailer for SCARY MOVIE 5 has been released and just like the films that preceded it, the movie looks absolutely terrible. If you are a fan of the SCARY MOVIE franchise, then by all means please tell me why because I just don’t understand. The films are [...]
Before he was famous for his meltdowns and rendezvous with porn stars, Charlie Sheen was actually a pretty good actor. You get a glimpse of that every now and again in some of the small roles he takes, but it has been a while since he’s starred in his own feature length film. So it [...]
“Greed, for lack of a better word, is good.” That’s the mantra of Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas), a Wall Street power player with money on his mind and spilling all over. He has the best suits. He has the newest (and biggest) cell phone. He has the nicest art in his office. He has the [...]
We haven’t seen much from Roman Coppola’s sophomore effort, A GLIMPSE INSIDE THE MIND OF CHARLES SWAN III. We know that the all star cast is led by Charlie Sheen, who plays a big time graphic designer that lives the good life with plenty of women and excess, then goes on a journey of self [...]
It’s hard to imagine that the SCARY MOVIE franchise continues to make enough money to film more sequels, but I suppose people love this drivel so here we are moving onto SCARY MOVIE 5. What’s not surprising is that Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen have both fallen so far from grace that they are taking [...]
Even though she has been rumored to star in Robert Rodriguez’s upcoming film MACHETE KILLS for quite some time, Vanessa Hudgens (HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL, SUCKER PUNCH) has now made it official that she will be in the film. We thought this was old news but apparently the actress has just confirmed it on her website [...]
Even though it’s typically unheard of for Mel Gibson to do an interview for a film that he’s in the process of shooting, he gave the go ahead to “Extra” and they did a little behind the scenes featurette featuring Mel Gibson and Robert Rodriguez on the set of the sequel MACHETE KILLS. Mel Gibson [...]
Filming appears to be well underway for Robert Rodriguez’s sequel MACHETE KILLS and today we find out that he’s been working with musical artist Lady Gaga. Rodriguez tweeted that he had just finished working with Lady Gaga and she pretty much blew his mind she was so great. Apparently she was so good she even [...]
I’m not sure anyone really asked for a sequel to MACHETE, but that’s not going to stop Robert Rodriguez. Production on MACHETE KILLS is underway in Austin, Texas where the cast and crew seem to be having one heck of a good time (it seems all Rodriguez sets are a good time). Along with the [...]
Watching PLATOON again, over 25 years since its initial release, I’m reminded at how different war movies are in 2011 than they were in 1986. Today’s war movies are filled with hope and overcoming extreme circumstances. Even when things are bad, most of today’s war films focus on something positive and show the power of [...]
Posted by: Nathan Swank Trifecta #21: FERRIS BUELLER’S DAY OFF + MAJOR LEAGUE + HOT SHOTS! With all of Charlie Sheen’s recent explanations about his grandiose life, magic from his fingertips and WINNING Duh, I thought it might be a good idea to match some of his extremely outrageous quotes to some of his films. [...]
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant MGM Home Entertainment and 20th Century Fox has announced that the 1986 Vietnam war film PLATOON, starring Charlie Sheen, Johnny Depp, Forest Whittaker, Tom Berenger and Willem Dafoe, will be released in a BD/DVD combo pack on May 24, 2011. This Oliver Stone directed film follows a young soldier who has [...]
By Brad Sturdivant Charlie Sheen just announced a few more stops on his insanity tour, or as he calls it “My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option Show” for which he’s going to make almost $7 million from. This, of course, takes his craziness to uncharted territory when it comes to celebrities destroying [...]
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant A long time ago (actually, it was just last June) it was reported that Charlie Sheen was working with writer/director David S. Ward to reprise his role in another installment of MAJOR LEAGUE. We haven’t really heard anything about it since, but apparently it’s still in the works and everybody (Tom [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant As Sylvester Stallone has pulled all of his 80′s franchises from the rubble, I’ve often wondered why more 80′s stars aren’t doing he same type of thing to resurrect their movie careers. One such name that comes to mind is Charlie Sheen, but at the same time the guy makes a [...]
by: Brad Sturdivant and Kristy Sturdivant He Said/She Said is a bi-weekly column where a male and female reviewer from the site team up to debate the merits of a particular film. HE SAID You either like spoof movies or you don’t. For me, the key to a good spoof movie is to pick a [...]
Posted by: Sturdy Above is the first picture of Douglas and LaBeouf from the upcoming sequel: WALL STREET 2. In it, Shia LaBeouf plays a Charlie Sheen-like character from the first one and Michael Douglas reprises his role as Gekko. When the sequel was first announced, I was under the impression that LaBeouf and Gekko [...]
