Review: Away We Go [-->full article]

We've all learned a thing or two during oral sex haven't we? Suck don't blow. The alphabet is your friend. Vegetarians taste better. And now thanks to the new film Away We Go, one more piece of info can be added to the cunnilingus knowledge database... pregnancy is detectable by changes in vaginal taste! I imagine this is how doctors originally diagnosed women before sonograms, but I just don't understand why I was never told. Would have saved me a bundle spent on EPT kits. Burt (John Kra...

Could the Next Bond Film Get Political? [-->full article]

Neal Purvis and Robert Wade have handled writing duties for the past four Bond flicks - The World is Not Enough, Die Another Day, Casino Royale, and Quantum of Solace - each time with a third writer coming in to sand off the edges and clean up a bit. Now, they'll be joined in earnest by the third member to their writing team for the next installment. And they got a pretty heavy hitter. Peter Morgan, who wrote The Last King of Scotland, The Other Boleyn Girl, and most recently Frost/Nixon, will ...

Paul Bettany Kills God in First ‘Creation’ Trailer [-->full article]

Creation, from director Jon Amiel (Entrapment), tells the story of the life of Charles Darwin, the father of the theory of evolution. And in this first trailer, which debuted over at Telegraph.co.uk, we see Paul Bettany as the famed naturalist and Jennifer Connelly as his wife Emma. Toby Jones also stars as Thomas Huxley, Darwin's close friend. Have a look at the trailer below. Looks a little BBC movie of the week to me, but you just never know. I've always been a fan of Bettany and the rest o...

Transformers 2: Linkin Park ‘New Divide’ Music Video [-->full article]

Paramount and MySpace have released the full-length music video for Linkin Park's "New Divide," which will be featured on the soundtrack for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Linkin Park has been very instrumental (literally) in the creation of the music for Transformers 2, and you will likely recognize some of this song from the early trailers. Have a look for yourself below. I can dig it -- Linkin Park has always been solid in my book and we all know how I feel about Transformers. The son...

Jason Voorhees is Dead on DVD [-->full article]

Sensationalism! Of course Jason Voorhees isn't really dead - well actually, he is dead. But he's undead. And still killing. And he'll keep killing on Blu-ray and DVD on June 16th when the 2009 reboot hits your local stores. Also slashing their way into your DVD player are installments IV, V, and VI of the franchise in new Deluxe Edition DVDs on the same date. If you recall, the first three movies already landed a few months back. Paramount was cool enough to send us over a clip of some of...

Fat Guys at the Movies Ep. 119 - Imagine Fat [-->full article]

On This Week's Show: After a couple good weeks with at least one good movie to enjoy, Kevin and Neil hit the dog days of the cinematic summer. But at least Neil had a good weekend, and Kevin has some fun taking jabs at Neil's manly prowess. The Fat Guys debate the ability of John Travolta to be a badass and wonder why Eddie Murphy is still making films. In that regard, they knock out a Fat Guy Five about the movies they wish Eddie Murphy hadn't made, and Neil threatens to stab Kevin in the eyeba...

Two Badass New Transformers 2 TV Spots, One New Clip [-->full article]

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is coming. Seriously, it will be here in mere weeks and the excitement is off the charts here in my chair. As you know, I'm the Michael Bay fan to end all Michael Bay fans -- even going as far as to defend Mr. Bay's work to anyone who will hold still for more than 3 minutes at a time. And as the sequel's release date draws near, Paramount has begun releasing an onslaught of new clips and TV spots. Many of these new clips don't show much more than an additiona...

First Look: ‘ZombieLand’ Shows Off Zombie Basics [-->full article]

What do you need to have a great Zombie flick? There are books and books out there discussing the topic, but somehow these pictures for Zombieland perfectly expose the necessities. Luckily, earlier in the evening, we invited Quint from Aint It Cool News over to Reject HQ to watch a The Worst Witch/Murder By Death double feature, beat him over the head with a brick, and stole his images. Did we need to attack him to take the images off his site? Hell no. Consider it a cherry on top. Plus, he sort...

Giveaway: Win a ‘Moon’ Poster Signed by Duncan Jones [-->full article]

We always try and get you kids the goodies -- and sometimes it ranges from a Vegas-themed prize pack to a copy of The Golden Girls: Season 1 on DVD. And sometimes, on the rarest of occasions, we score some really sweet sweetness to share with all of you. We've got a poster from one of our favorite little sci-fi flicks of the year -- and certainly one of my favorite films from Sundance '09 -- Duncan Jones' Moon. The director has signed one of the film's one-sheets -- pictured below -- and sent i...

The Hobbit: The Return of Weaving, McKellen, Serkis [-->full article]

I had the unique privilege of seeing The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (a film with four "the's" in the title) at Butt-Numb-a-Thon 5 right here in beautiful Austin, Texas at the Alamo Drafthouse about a week before it was released. Was it incredible? Of course. Even for a guy like me who usually hides his geek cred by going on dates with attractive women, playing team sports and being baffled by the convoluted rules to D&D. So I feel geek-qually satisfied to hear the news that not o...

The Reject Report Imagines Taking the Pelham 123 [-->full article]

Three... two… one… fire! Welcome to what is sure to be another unpredictable weekend at the box office here at the Reject Report. Right now we have two new movies rolling out with big star power -- The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 with Denzel Washington and John Travolta, and Imagine That starring Eddie Murphy. And they might both still end up possibly losing out to a 78-year old CGI cartoon character and a bunch of hungover guys. Here at the Reject Report we are still a little bit hung over from...

New ‘Hurt Locker’ Poster Gives Us Need for New Metaphors [-->full article]

So far as I can tell, there are only two ways that we here at Reject HQ can describe Kathryn Bigelow's Iraq war actioner The Hurt Locker: intense and explosive. This brand new poster, which was released today by Summit Entertainment, is yet again, both. Prior to writing this article I tried to come up with a better headline than "New Hurt Locker Poster Explodes," but I just couldn't. As any faithful FSR reader should know by now, The Hurt Locker follows an explosive ordinance disposal team duri...

Amy Poehler Serves Up Justice in ‘Lunch Lady’ [-->full article]

Say it with me: Amy Poehler, action star. It doesn't exactly have much of a ring to it, does it? Alas, she's going to try it anyway. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Poehler has signed on to Universal's upcoming adaptation of Jarrett Krosoczka's "Lunch Lady" graphic novel series. The story follows a mild-mannered cafeteria worker who secretly dishes out helpings of justice as she and her assistant investigate various wrongdoings. All this while three students try to figure out what her doub...

‘Conan The Barbarian’ Gets Guy You’ve Never Heard of to Direct [-->full article]

Yeah, I get it. I should memorize everyone's name that's ever been the assistant foley on an indie production, so not knowing a director's name that's actually done a few films means I'm terrible at my job. Which is true. I've never pretended to be good at what I do. After all, my true calling is as a pro bass fisherman, and if I could pay the rent in gamefish i would. In a heartbeat. And, honestly, who here would have perked up instantly if I had written "Marcus Nispel to Direct 'Conan'" inste...
