If you’ve never watched a Lifetime movie, then this following trailer may not have as much impact for you. Also, you’re very lucky. The US TV network Lifetime has made an infamous name for itself with made-for-TV movies that are usually poorly directed, cliche-infested hokum at best, and factually inaccurate, lawsuit attracting biopics starring no-name actors at worst. So the …

This weekend past, Universal’s big hit from the 1990’s about giant prehistoric animals returned to make a humungous, record-shattering splash at the box office. I’m guessing that Warner Bros is hoping that that could do the same, as they are finally bringing Steve Alten’s Meg to the screen, and they’ve roped in Eli Roth to do it for them. Variety …

No, instead action hero Arnie is actually required to only do the first three letters of that descriptor: …

The American cable channel Starz has officially greenlit their adaptation of the 2001 Neil Gaiman novel, American Gods. Previously in stuck in development hell with HBO, American Gods was snapped up by Freemantle Media early last year, and since then we’ve had precious little news on the project, save for hearing that Bryan Fuller (Hannibal) and Michael Green (Heroes, Smallville) …

There’s no denying that product placement in movies can do wonders for whatever they’re shilling. Risky Business helped bring a line of Ray-Bans back from the brink, E.T. gave Hershey a 65% boost in profits and GM specially made and sold over 60,000 Chevrolet Camaros thanks to Transformers.
