Is McG A Loser?

Filed under: Action & Adventure, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Deals, Warner Brothers, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Remakes and SequelsOne movie we can all thank God didn't happen is McG's Superman movie. But he's been given another chance to upset comic book fans, though not on as big a scale. According to IESB.net, McG has replaced Peter Berg as director on The Losers, an adaptation of the DC/Vertigo title that was a remake of an old WWII-based comic. The updated version features a group of anti-hero ex-special forces soldiers who go to war against the CIA after being betrayed and abandoned. Yes, this sounds a bit like The A-Team, and there is even mention of the similarity on the comic's Wikipedia page. Maybe 20th Century Fox can get their A-Team movie going and the two titles can compete against each other. As if one studio signing McG isn't enough, IESB.net also reports that Fox is looking to hire the Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle director for the remake of The Fantastic Voyage. For those unfamiliar with the original, a sci-fi classic, it follows the story of a submarine crew shrunken small enough to enter the body of a dying diplomat in order to save him. It also won two Oscars, for visual effects and for art direction, which the new version will probably not receive. Currently, McG is also attached to the comedy Me and My Monster, which is sounds a bit like Little Monsters.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

Premiere Is Gone, But New Film Mag On the Way

Filed under: Classics, Foreign Language, Site Announcements, Critical Thought & Trends, Cinematical IndieThere have been many times that I wished I had taken French in high school, but the one time I remember well is when I heard about Les Cahiers du Cinema. The film magazine, which was home to Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut and Eric Rohmer when they were influential film critics before they were influential film makers, has never spawned an English-language version in its 56 years. But as of this Friday, the publication's new website (e-Cashiers -- nothing is there yet, but you should bookmark it) will offer us monolinguals a translation.The online version of the magazine will not be free, though. There will be a $5 charge for individual issues and also a subscription option. The first edition available in English features an article on former Cahiers editor Jacques Rivette, one on the influence of American television and one on Armenian cinema. And each piece of writing is promised to be appropriately translated by a team of 18 individuals familiar with the magazine's way of thinking. This news comes one day after the ultra-mainstream, celebrity-friendly American film magazine Premiere announced an end to its publication run.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
