Catching Up is Hard to Do
Movie Poster Addict —
... Bold historic epic filled with stunning imagery, heart pumping action and melting hot romance. This is both what these posters transmit and what I’m expecting from the Baz Luhrmann epic. But the imagery is also very close to being over the top in its boldness.
This line between amazing and ridiculous is one Baz is familiar with and has successfully walked in the past. Let’s see if he can make magic happen again.

Cinematical —
... perhaps upwards of, $10 million in the wake of the film's success. What's worse is that he was still deducted for any number of expenses, despite alleged awareness of the errors on the part of Paramount. As such, Jones wants an auditor to go through their books and figure out just how much he is owed.
Naturally, neither side of the case has made much in terms of formal comment. As his character might say, if this ain't a mess, it'll do 'til the mess gets here.

It’s debatable whether it’s one of the film’s major strengths or its fatal flaw, but there’s no denying that Oliver Stone’s W. is loaded with actual quotes and dramatizations of documented events. But as if they anticipating an argument over the film’s factual basis anyway, Lionsgate has set up a companion web site called the W. Film Guide, which essentially breaks the movie down into 83 footnotes.

Oh, and as to the possibility of another film that Spotnitz vaguely suggests: no thank you. This was a graceful, satisfying finale.

'Wolverine': Experts Weigh In On Effects Of Leak
MTV Movies —
... countless hundreds of thousands of people — the majority likely devoted comic book fanboys — did check out the early version online. But some industry experts contend their largely negative reaction did not drive down attendance numbers significantly. "A significant number of those people [who watched the leaked version] were excited enough by the property that they were going to go to see the finished movie in a theater regardless," David Poland of industry blog Movie City News said. He estimates that "Wolverine" lost between $1 million and $8 ...
Andrew Sarris Persists and Endures

A number of websites, including Movie City News and Sean P. Means’s “Movie Cricket” blog in the Salt Lake Tribune (where Andrew is named “Number 57″ among “The Departed”), have been reporting that Andrew Sarris has been fired from the New York Observer. Not true, says Molly Haskell. Andrew, along with a dozen other writers at the rapidly sinking weekly, was taken off staff on Monday, but he will continue to write on a freelance basis, exactly as Rex Reed does currently. Not great news, but — particularly in the current context — not a catastrophe. Andrew’s day ...

Debating ‘G.I. Joe’ on Attack of the Show

IC friends David Poland (Movie City News/The Hot Blog) and Robert Sanchez (IESB) appeared on G4’s Attack of the Show today to talk the “G.I. Joe” brouhaha and it was a pretty decent discussion. I was hoping for more fireworks since I know Sanchez is a fan and Poland, of course, not so much. But no such luck.

Pondering "Antichrist"
From the Front Row —
This discussion, by Movie City News ' Dave Poland, Larry Gross, and Kim Morgan, is probably the sanest, most levelheaded discussion of Lars Von Trier's Antichrist (IFC, 10.28) that I have yet seen. They are right, of course, to criticize the otherwise intelligent people who went apeshit over this film in Cannes, and bring up a good point about the quality of the work being in how it has so gotten under the skins of those who have seen it. This is the kind of thing I hope to see more of about this film, rather than the cries of outrage and ridiculous accusations of misogyny ...
