Merrick here...
Early last month, Brett Ratner did an interview with MTV regarding BEVERLY HILLS COP 4.
A particular quote in the interview lead many to the logical conclusion that the new BHC project would have a considerably softer tone/rating than its predecessors.
When asked what is biggest challenge would be, Ratner seemed to indicate that his new film would be geared towards a very PG audience.

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
I’m not sure what any of you expect when you click on a story about this film. Cheap easy shots at it automatically? Because that seems to be what most of the coverage I've read everywhere has been. It’s become a punching bag already for a percentage of the press and the audience alike, but I haven’t seen it, certainly, and haven’t even seen the trailer yet.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Did I mention I'm a Coen Bros completist? And did I mention I'm a Coen Bros apologist? Totally. I will defend INTOLERABLE CRUELTY and THE LADYKILLERS. Yeah, I will. I know! I'm kinda pathetic.
But I love The Coens. And this review started... interestingly. I can't wait to see the flick and I love the non-spoiler parts to your review, Johnny Thanatos and I will come back to read the spoiler sections after I see the flick. Be warned of spoilers, but they should be marked. Enjoy!

Yes, kids, once again it is Todd from Twitch here with your bi-weekly dose of the best and brightest from the world of film. And by best and brightest I do, of course, frequently mean the strangest and most unusual, though there is the occasional title in there you could show to mom as well. You got it, it’s time for another edition of International Eye Candy.

Brooklyn-bred Darren Aronofsky has gone to New Jersey and made his NEBRASKA. As spare and haunting as Bruce Springsteen's acoustic masterwork, Aronofsky's THE WRESTLER is less reinvention than refinement: the relentless self-destruction of mind and body depicted in PI and REQUIEM FOR A DREAM has merged with THE FOUNTAIN's search for spiritual grace, while his audacious technique has been abandoned for a naturalistic approach that recalls the independent American cinema of the 1970s and 80s.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with some sad, sad news. Recently, Don LaFontaine, the voice of movie marketing, passed away. Now movie marketing is losing its face, thankfully not to death.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I hate Anton Sirius. I've never gotten to cover Toronto for this site and it's all his fault. Thank God he's damn good at his job or else I'd have to burn him in effigy, but I really do like my shrine I've made of him over the years... I printed out his previous reports and paper-mached them into what I imagine he looks like. It's not obsessive, it's just devoted.

The development of new GHOSTBUSTERS material has been somewhat confusing. There's a margin for error in my recap, but the upshot goes something like this:
In no particular order...

Hey folks, Harry here... Some of you may have noticed my talkback on Merrick's ME SOMMERS story - where the subject read, "Fuckity Fuck Fuck Fuck" and the body read, "FUUUUUUUCK". That actually really wasn't about Sommers being involved in TARZAN, so much as it was about Guillermo Del Toro no longer being a part of Tarzan.

Though I thought it was incredibly apparent that Harvey Dent/Two-Face was dead at the end of THE DARK KNIGHT, there are those who insist that he's not "movie dead" because we don't follow the character's corpse from embalming to interment (as has been the custom since Porter's THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY). Since I was fortunate enough to snag an interview with Aaron Eckhart today at the TOWELHEAD junket, I decided to ask him what he thought about such speculation.

Hey folks, Harry here. This looks pretty damn incredible. Outside of the Gay community, I don't think that Harvey Milk was as well known as his name so much as the "Mayor of Castro Street" - He's generally credited with being the first openly gay man elected to a significant political office... ever. He fought hard for Gay rights and this film seems to be a pretty damn powerful look at his life and his fight.
