Universal Says “Thanks, but no thanks” To ‘Tintin’
In what sounds like an incredibly bone-headed move from a business point of view, Universal Pictures has pulled out of the Tintin adaptation. They have declined to exercise an option to co-finance Tintin, which is already set up as a trilogy to be produced and directed by Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson.
George Lucas Says Indy 5 Will Not Be A Mutt Williams Movie
Way back in May before Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull opened, George Lucas started laying the groundwork for a possible spin-off franchise starring the Shia LeBeouf character of Mutt Williams.

New trailer for “Eagle Eye” flat-out rocks
Back in May we posted the teaser for a new movie called Eagle Eye, starring Shia LaBeouf, Rosario Dawson, Michelle Monaghan and Billy Bob Thorton.

Movie Review: “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” (2008)
The last time I did the midnight movie thing was for Return of the King back in 2003. My 30+ year old body just doesn’t deal with the morning-after lack of sleep as well as it used to.

Wolfgang Peterson Off “Ender’s Game” Adaptation
Anyone who’s delved much at all into science fiction books will have already heard of Orson Scott Card and his magnificent book, Ender’s Game. It was one of my early favorites. I think my sister used to read it like once a year. I never got really caught up in the sequels but that first book was everything that’s good about science fiction writing.
