With “The Happening” coming this weekend (too bad it’s going up against The Incredible Hulk), our eyes are once again turned to that very unique filmmaker (hey… love him or hate him, you’ve got to admit he certainly does have his own style), The ShamHammer himself, M. Night Shyamalan.
So in honor of his forthcoming release, I thought it would be fun to look back on his films up to this point and rank them in order of best to worst. Now let me give this quick disclaimer… for most people, M. Night Shyamalan came into existence with The Sixth Sense, even thought he did have 2 films before that (Praying with A... |

Eva Mendez has curves that make dresses look prettier, so when I hear of her in a movie I tend to at least pause. Also thanks to Doug’s fanatical following of one Werner Herzog I tend to wonder when I hear Herzog’s name is attached to something too.
And lastly, falling from grace but still an actor I try to pay attention to Nic Cage makes me perk up too. So imagine how much attention I have in a reimagining of Bad Lieutenant that has all three of these people together in one film?

My stance on the issues of movie piracy and how the MPAA polices the digital world have long been established here on The Movie Blog. In coles notes form, my thoughts look something like this:
1) Pirating movies is wrong
There are people out there who put in huge amounts of effort and spends small (and large) fortunes in making movies. They deserve your 10 if you’re going to sit there and watch their film.
2) People who actually film the movies in theater or steal digital copies and put them on the internet should go to jail
I have no sympathy for the person who gets caught with a video recorder in a movie theater and gets 5 years in ... |

We have some news today about a new Robert De Niro film that pokes fun of the Hollywood Machine and the Cannes Film Festival. We get the following scoop from the fabled caves of Yahoo:
Robert De Niro plays a movie producer whose professional and personal life lurches from crisis to crisis in a new comedy on the cut-throat world of Hollywood and its relationship with the Cannes film festival.
De Niro plays Ben, who must juggle two ex-wives and their families, a pill-popping bi-polar director, a ruthless studio boss demanding radical changes to his picture and Willis steadfastly refusing to shave his beard for an action hero role. The film c... |

Another fantasy book series is about to make its way to the big screen. We get wind of the Dragonology adaptation from the gold hoarding caves of Yahoo:
The children’s book series “Dragonology” is headed for a feature version from Universal, which has acquired the film rights to the material and hired Leonard Hartman to write the adaptation. The faux-nonfiction books by Dugald A. Steer are based on the conceit that dragons exist, as revealed by the Victorian dragonologist Ernest Drake. An underlying theme is that dragons should be studied and revered in the same way as any rare species.
