‘The Expendables’ Trade Whitaker For Cent

By Rob Hunter 

The awesome, exciting, and truly interesting casting news coming out of Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables had to come to an end sometime.

Per Variety, Natalie Portman and Brad Pitt will be starring in an upcoming romantic comedy based on a book by Leanne Shapton. Like Portman herself, the book’s title is a mouthful…

Review: The Horseman

By Rob Hunter 

Does penis violence make you queasy? And I don’t mean violence committed by penises, but violence committed against them. Punches, drill bits spinning Candiru-style up the urethra, or tri-hooked fishing lures pierced through a guy’s dongle then yanked… if so, then you just may want to skip the new Australian film, The Horseman.

Review: That Evening Sun

By Rob Hunter 

Although it wasn’t mentioned to the Paramount Theater’s packed house last night, the screening was a ‘work in progress’ cut of Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell. But if audience reaction last night is a true indicator, the vast majority of them loved the film. Work in progress or not.

SXSW Sneak Peek: Brüno

By Rob Hunter 

Universal previewed three full scenes last night from Sacha Baron Cohen’s upcoming follow-up to Borat with video introductions from the man himself. If you’re a Borat fan and were worried that Cohen had lost the anonymity necessary to dupe stereotypical Americans with humorous results, rest assured Bruno is fucking hilarious.
