Favorite Quote - “I don’t know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody’s life, my life. All he’d wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where... Read Full Story

Since an Incredible Hulk sequel looks slim based on a poor box office showing of the Incredible Hulk. That means we could be getting the second option, which is “The Hulk” being the villain in The Avengers.
Iron Man writers and pegged writers for The Avengers, Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, spoke to MTV about their thoughts on the situation.
“I hope ‘The Avengers’ embraces that,” Fergus said of having the Hulk as misunderstood baddie. “You don’t want like 10 super-badass good guys fighting... Read Full Story

Hollywood Elsewhere has reported that Josh Brolin will star in Jonah Hex, directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor for Warner Bros.
Based on the graphic novel the film will follow Hex–known for having the right side of his face disfigured and wearing a Confederate army uniform–a rough-and-tumble gunslinger and part-time bounty hunter whose adventures always ended in blood.
This isn’t a bad choice assuming it is true. That being said last I heard Brolin was being pegged to play Snake... Read Full Story
So we have had a podcast and some posts on this project and I must say that with out a doubt I am really excited about this movie, probably more than a Batman 3, Star Trek or any other film of recent memory. About a week ago we posted that production of Green Lantern was in motion for this spring.
Now, Latino Review received word from their “trusted source” at Warner Bros. claims the studio is eying up Ryan Gosling to portray Hal Jordan/Green Lantern.
This is all purely speculative and Warner... Read Full Story
I am not opposed to remakes but when Hollywood makes a movie that is exactly like another movie not dubbing it a remake or redux or a re-adaptation then it pisses me off. Take Eagle Eye for example, that movie was a rip-off of I-Robot, Minority Report and Enemy of the State.
Now that is an OK analogy so here is a better one - Ghost Town is a complete re-make of Robert Downey’s Heart and Souls, I do not care how you slice it, there is some differences here but ultimately it is the same movie... Read Full Story

If you ever want to write anything then by all means put it forward! I need someone to start covering the 'other' genres that aren't really my area if you're interested? Comedy, family, rom com. If you'd like to do that, or know someone who might then please let me know.
Also, could you update my link on your site? I've just got a dot com for my blog, the address is www.originalsharpsays.com.
Let me know if I can ever do you any favours dude.
Thanks for contributing to the Movie News wikizine. I read your article analysing the new Dark Knight trailer and found it to be very intriguging.
You'd be interested to know that in one of my articles, I have a quote from Aaron Eckhart saying about how his fiancee in the movie dies - Rachael Dawes!
Thought you might like to know, also, would you be in doing a link exchange with my blog Original Sharp Says? I like what you cover and think it'd be pretty cool.
