I must admit in the company of friends that when I heard that Will Ferrell would be headlining a modern movie adaptation of the classic television show Land of the Lost, I was filled with mixed feelings. On one hand, there was the awesome jubilation brought on from the knowledge that one of my favorite childhood shows was going to make it to the big screen. On the other hand, I felt the utter terror of knowing that Hollywood generally screws stuff like this up. But so far, based on everything that we’ve seen (which isn’t much), things appear to be going well.

Twilight is generating a complete flood of buzz at the moment, and it seems that there’s a new story every day (well, actually more like two a day) so in order to get everyone up to speed, there’s gonna be a whirlwind blitz here, so keep up!

The summer movie season officially kicks off this weekend, which means that for the next four months, Hollywood will be filling our movie theaters with lots of superheroes, car chases, pointless explosions -- and romantic comedies for the ladies whose boyfriends promised them they could pick the next movie if they could please just see Iron Man first.

This weekend at the New York Comic Con, more footage of this year's most anticipated animated film, Pixar's Wall-E, was shown to audiences. And once again the results were shock and awe.

Folks holding their breath for a RoboCop remake: continue to do so. Despite bringing you word last month that MGM included a remake on their line-up for the fall/winter this year, there's been little mention beyond that flirty seven-letter inclusion in the March press release. With the scent still lingering, MTV caught up with RoboCop's original screenwriter, Ed Neumeier, who is all about bringing the cyborg lawdog back. "I would love to make a RoboCop movie.
