Uncle Tom’s Gabbin’

IT WAS A REAL surprise when Jackson Browne came up and said hi at the recent Ozomatli Concert at Pipeline Cafe. Later in the evening the crowd went wild when he joined the group on stage for their final two songs.

Daybreakers Headed to DVD and Blu-Ray This Summer

Did you miss the Spierig Brothers’ glossy sci-fi vampire flick “Daybreakers” when it debuted in theaters back in January? Don’t feel bad — you’re not the only one who let it foolishly pass you by. According to the folks at Shock Till You Drop, this ambitious blood-sucking actioner is scheduled to violently assault retailers on June 1st, and should include a host of extras on both DVD and Blu-ray. The latter, of course, comes packed with some exclusive content, including a feature-length documentary chronicling the behind-the-scenes madness of the filmmaking process. Considering I’ve yet to make the transition to high-definition, chances are this isn’t going to change my mind. Those of you who are already on-board, however, should definitely take a peek or two. If you’re curious about the film’s overall quality, check out Nix’s review of Daybreakers. It’s a good read any way you slice and dice it. And while no official artwork has been released, I’m hoping they go [...]

Felicia Day to Hunt Werewolves in Inevitably Shitty SyFy Original Movie Red

Oh, the Sci-Fi Channel. Er, I mean, Sy Fy Channel. Let’s face it, it doesn’t matter how you spell it, the results are always the same: a pretty shitty, low to moderately budgeted “fantasy/horror” movie that attempts to do something unique and original, but ends up being just, well, generally speaking, pretty damn shitty. That’s your Sy Fy Channel Original Movie in a nutshell. Their latest is “Red”, which is set to star cyberspace geek fantasy girl Felicia Day (check out her music video “Do You Wanna Date My Avatar” below for a clue). Here’s the synopsis from SciFiWire, the blogging arm of the Sy Fy Channel. Felicia Day … will portray a werewolf-hunting descendant of Little Red Riding Hood in the new Syfy Saturday Original Movie, Red. In the action-packed Red, Red (Day) brings her fiancé home, where he meets the family and learns about their business – hunting werewolves. He’s skeptical until bitten by a werewolf. When her family insists [...]

Thor Gets an Official Synopsis, Occupation Change for Jane Foster

Marvel Studios has released an official synopsis for their upcoming epic “Thor”. It’s nothing we haven’t reported on or posted numerous times before, but there is one big major change: Jane Foster, to be played by Natalie Portman, is apparently no longer a nurse, but instead is now a scientist. You know, kinda like when they made Sue Storm a fellow scientist of Reed Richards instead of just some chick he brought up in space with him? That kinda make sense. Actually, that made LOTS of sense. Turning Foster into a scientist, though? A need for grrrl power, one suspects, cause gosh, she couldn’t just be a lowly nurse now, could she? Paramount Pictures and Marvel Entertainment Present A Marvel Studios Production A Kenneth Branagh Film Co-Producers Craig Kyle Victoria Alonso Executive Producers Louis D’Esposito Alan Fine Stan Lee David Maisel Patty Whitcher Produced by Kevin Feige Directed by Kenneth Branagh Cast: Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston, Anthony Hopkins, Rene Russo, Stellan Skarsgard, Jaimie Alexander, Kat Dennings, Ray [...]
