Crossover | When Actors Wanna Sing
Oh the fickle mind of the artist…
The idea of actors/actresses entering the music industry or musicians entering the film industry is nothing new, but it has always interested me for some reason. I don’t know if its the fact that many of the transitions are rough and don’t really pan out well, proving the artist, who could be very solid in their native career, sub-par to mediocre in their new “career”. Either way, I’m always pleased to see an Actor/Actress who can pull their own weight both musically and as a Thespian.
Don't Hassle the Hoff
Lets take a look at a few music projects, brought to the table by relevant actors/actresses, that you may have never known existed. And no, there will be no David Hasselhoff in this conversation.

Top Five Bruce Willis Performances
With Red opening this weekend, Bruce Willis is once again proving that being a middle aged bad ass is possible. For over two decades Willis has also shown that by bringing a substantial amount of his off screen persona to his characters, he can create iconic performances that film fans hold dear to their hearts. The past few years he has hit some rough patches with some really bad films (Cop Out, Surrogates, 16 Blocks, The Whole Ten Yards), but this list will have none of that. The following is my personal top five performances by Bruce Willis. Read on… the number one may surprise you. Read the rest of this entry »
“The Night Chronicles” May Become “Unbreakable”
M. Night Shyamalan is producing a trilogy of horror films dubbed The Night Chronicles, with the first entry entitled Devil opening on September 17th. As one can imagine, seeing Shyamalan‘s name on a title card doesn’t inspire much hope of late, but I can not help but be intrigued by the proposed third film of the series. Why? Well, the film now has ties to the (never going to see the light of day) Unbreakable sequel.
When the dust settles the winner of best 2010 action team-up film is…
Hollywood loves to shell out similar films in a given year, (Dante’s Peak and Volcano, Deep Impact and Armageddon) and 2010 is no exception. This year the old school action team-up made a comeback with movies like, The Losers, The A-Team, and The Expendables with varying results. So, I thought it would be in fitting with the spirit of those films to pit them against one another, and see which one comes out on top. Here are the 2010 action team-up awards. Steroids are encouraged.

New Trailer | Red
The DC graphic novel "Red."
The first trailer for Red, a DC comics adaptation of about a group of Ex-CIA agents who just can’t move smoothly into retirement is now online. The movie stars Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, Mary-Louise Parker, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, Karl Urban and Brian Cox among others and looks like a whole lot of fun. The most refreshing part of this trailer is how the cinematography doesn’t rely on cheap comic book stylings to appeal to fanboys. Or maybe it’s just the prestigious cast that makes it stand out.
The flick is directed by Robert Schwentke of Filghtplan and The Time Travelers Wife fame. Two movies I haven’t seen, but have heard good things about. Check out the trailer below or in HD at Yahoo. Red hits theaters October 15th.

Censored! The Best movie Dub-Overs of All Time.
So I was watching the Coen Brothers’ cult classic “The Big Lewboski” the other day, and as a crazed Walter beat the living crap out of the car I couldn’t help but remember the way this film was famously censored for television. The Coen’s in their infinite wisdom had John Goodman himself re-dub his classic scene for TV and the result is well…brilliant. Read the rest of this entry »
