Is there a movie that you would simply delete from history if you could? Just travel back in time, knock off the screenwriter and then watch the movie’s IMDB page fade away into the space-time continuum?
We’ve all got these, right? Historically speaking, we’d all have been better off if some movies just didn’t exist. [...]

I just want to make sure I’ve got this straight: Just two years ago, Warner Bros. gave us Superman Returns, a reboot of a dead franchise. Now in 2010, according to a number of sites, the studio will reboot the franchise again because the last one “didn’t quite work as a film in the way [...]

This is all the convincing I need that Warner Bros. and Christopher Nolan have absolutely figured out how to bring innovation and excitement back to the way movies are marketed. Please go ahead and click on that one-sheet; make it bigger, drink in that red and orange fire, read that frigging great tagline again. Then [...]

Time Warner is expected to announce that New Line Cinema will soon become a part of Warner Bros. /film looks like the first site to run this news, including a letter to employees from New Line bigwigs Bob Shaye and Michael Lynne. Really, though, New Liners shouldn’t fear for their jobs; if the studio is [...]
