Everyone has heard of the Chuck Norris facts. Over the past few months, they have started to become ridiculous, and finding a list of good ones is nearly impossible. I’ve read through hundreds upon hundreds of horrible ones to put together a list of fifteen of my favorites. Feel free to post one of your own favorites into the comments.

When I was 14 years old, I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark and fell in love with Indiana Jones. As I grew up, this crush evolved into a more than passing interest in historical sites and digs, slight proficiency with a bullwhip (although Batman Returns is in part to blame for that one) and a fondness for movies. Or so I thought. Because I just saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and realised something: despite my growing up into a well balanced historically interested bullwhip wielding movie buff, I am still very much in love with Indiana Jones. Indy IV (as the film will be lovingly called for the purpose of this review) has been a long time in the making. And throughout its final stages Spielberg, Lucas, et al. have been very secretive about the plot. |

The script for Supermax is still floating around waiting for a greenlight, but LatinoReview got a copy and wrote up what they thought about it. David S. Goyer, who adapted the story for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, wrote the unconventional comic book adaptation. Justin Marks, the guy who scripted the upcoming Voltron, helped out. It features the Green Arrow, but instead of plodding through another origin story, it throws him into a maximum security prison with many of his archenemies. Then he has to escape using his cunning tricks and bow skills. It’s Robin Hood meets FOX’s “Prison Break.” |

John Cusack will star in Roland Emmerich’s apocalyptic movie 2012 for Columbia Pictures. According to Variety, Chiwetel Ejiofor (Redbelt, American Gangster) is also in talks to join the movie. Cusack is in talks to play divorced dad, writer and sometime limo driver Jackson Curtis, who goes on a heroic journey to save his family. Ejiofor plays Adrian Helmsley, an idealistic science adviser to the president who also becomes a hero. The story is based on a Mayan prediction from over 2300 years ago that the apocalypse will come at the winter solstice in 2012. They plan to release the movie in July 2009… |

It’s only May, but I’m pretty sure I’ve already seen the worst movie of 2008. No, as much as I panned Speed Racer (and have yet to see it), I was pretty sure that one would just be laughably bad, not truly, painfully bad. In fact, it’s rare that I see a movie - especially this early on in the year - that I’m confident will be the worst movie of the year. Usually a film has some saving grace, or at least I can foresee other disasters coming down the road. It doesn’t help that I had expectations for this film. Not high expectations, mind you, but a certain level of, “OK, this can’t be that bad,” when I stuck the DVD into my player. |

With his recent stint on Oprah, dining dates with Viacom honcho, Sumner Redstone, and talk of another Mission: Impossible movie on the way, Tom Cruise may be on the road to recovery. I'm okay with this. I find myself in the strange position of liking Cruise. I don't care about his couch antics or his religious beliefs. I like the guy's movies and I tend to like him in those movies. Look, I grew up with Maverick. When he "killed" Goose, Mav went into the dumps. Nothing mattered to him. His flying was shaky; he lost his nerve. He blew off the sexy-in-a-baseball-cap Kelly McGillis. Not even playing with the boys in the hot summer sun, lathered in suntan lotion, could cheer him up. |
