Movie Minesweeper - The Dance X Versus Sing It Back Edition
- Sergio Leone's Dollars Trilogy Man with No Name is comics courtesy of Dynamite. How apt.
- As previously discussed, Andrew Davies has adapted Fanny Hill for the BBC. It will star Samantha Bond, Hugo Speer and Alison Steadman, the greatest of which is undoubtedly Steadman. She's a genius.
- A clip from I'm Not There is knocking around the wonderful world of YouTube. I saw the link at AintItCool.
- Aaron Eckhart is no fun.
- Nayo Wallace is now one of the Speed Racer crowd, playing Minx, Racer X's girlfriend.
- The Guardian have slammed AintItCool. Personally, I think Knowles' site has a lot of really strong points - and a whole lot of great contacts. So many people submit news bits to them first, how can they help but get the Lion's share of genuine scoops? Obviously, I think I'm doing a pretty good job here at film ick - why else would I bother? I'm getting about 1 hit for every 100,000 at AintItCool however. And to be honest, I'm not sure why I'm not doing a fair bit better.
- Naomi Watts and Clive Owen are the set leads for Tom Tykwer's The International. Oh, Tom Tykwer, Tom Tykwer. Sigh. What can I say about Tom Tykwer? The nearly-Nearly Man? I'm always, always disappointed by his films.
- Baz Luhrmann has answered public questions about Australia (the film, not the country).
- Ray Wise, Bru Muller and Brooke Nevin (I can vouch for one of them) have joined the cast of Infestation.
- Mandy Lane has been pulled from all American release schedules just a week before the expected bow because the theatrical rights have been flogged off by Dimension to Senator. While it shifts over to a new theatrical distributor, we'll be left waiting in confusion for the new date to be set.
- Josh Flitter is Ace Ventura Jr.
- Tartan are going Blu-Ray in the UK with Black Book, Oldboy and The Seventh Seal. It's the worldwide Blu-Ray debut for each.
- My Name is Bruce has proven unfeasibly popular.
- Angelica Huston will be popping up in Choke, as Sam Rockwell's character's mum.
And now I want my dinner. Yep - I eat.
