Godzilla may be an overpowering foe created from nightmare fuel and some leftover Fukushima radiation, a-bomb style, but if there’s one thing that not even the king of monsters himself can work up a sweat against, it’s a dodgy script. With filming set to begin in March, the monster flick has already encountered a few hurdles, from the departure of producers …
Even though I find Angelina Jolie to be about as attractive as a car crash, the rest of the world still loves her. 2010 was a good year for the actress, as Salt proved to be a decent hit at the box office with its tale of a spy vs spy that she had a leading role in. So when …
Assassin’s Creed ain’t the only video game property that’s finally shifting into production gear, y’know? There happens to be another franchise out there, loved by gamers, and just ripe for a big screen adaptation, in the form of Mass Effect.

Ever wondered what it would be like to be the last man on Earth? Well, if it’s anything like the future represented in the tale from Brian K Vaughn and Pia Guerra, I’d be ready to slip a noose on my neck if it was me in that position. The tale of a lone escape artist and his pet helper …
Hey guys, I’m sorry about last week. I didn’t mean to make you all feel so ill, with that leaked look at the Ninja Turtles script.

Say what you want about the Bay-man, but he knows how to make a film stylish, even …
It’s official, Bible films are the next big thing, as that genre slowly starts to gain momentum and kick all those Twilight and Fairy Tale films out of the running. We’ve got a Noah film on the way with Russell Crowe slaying trolls and other beasts as he practises animal conservation, Paul Verhoeven wants to know more about Jesus and Will …
So we always knew that Jose Padilha’s Robocop was going to be different, but with the director’s great action credentials and a cast that would make a Chris Nolan production jealous, you’d be hard pressed to not be feeling some form of excitement for the remake. I mean, Gary Oldman! But now it looks like HitFix’s Drew McWeeney is not just …
Have you ever double-checked your doors at night because something just didn’t feel secure? …
