Ratner Talks BEVERLY HILLS COP 4 Rating & Timeframe!! But How Many $$$s Are Needed To Drag Eddie Back??


Merrick here...


Early last month, Brett Ratner did an interview with MTV regarding BEVERLY HILLS COP 4.

A particular quote in the interview lead many to the logical conclusion that the new BHC project would have a considerably softer tone/rating than its predecessors.

When asked what is biggest challenge would be, Ratner seemed to indicate that his new film would be geared towards a very PG audience.

The winner of the Bad Lieutenant poster design contest is...

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with the results of the Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans poster contest!

I ended up with over 60 entries from all over the world. The contest was only open to US readers, unfortunately, but some non-US residents entered hoping only to have a good enough entry to warrant inclusion in the runner-ups… a couple made the cut and you’ll see them below.

Mr. Beaks Feels Like He Has To Say Something About NEW MOON!

TWILIGHT: NEW MOON is expected to open to $100 million this weekend, and I refuse to believe that anyone who pays to see this non-movie will enjoy it as anything other than a shameless melange of pasty skin, chiseled abs and tween-emo longing. It's garbage. And while I'm aware there are people who mistake the torpidity of these films for tragic depth, it's my hope that many of them will soon be exposed to Jane Austen as more than a cheap allusion, at which point they'll realize - with horror-struck remorse - the ignorant error of their youth.

New trailer for PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF hits...

Hey folks, Harry here... Earlier tonight I was at the Alamo Drafthouse South - where in the lobby there was a striking (pun intended) Standee for PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF. It is the poster art, but with Percy Jackson throwing a flashing and thundering lightning bolt. Just in time for all the NEW MOON girls to notice(?) as they ponder bloodsports or bestiality. Then I spy the new trailer online and I get what Fox hopes happens with this series.

Oh - and watch out at your local theaters - there's roving gangs of women laying siege. Tis crazy out there...

An exclusive clip from UP IN THE AIR featuring the great Jason Bateman and that Clooney character!!!

Hey everyone. Capone in Chicago.

I told you I'd be hounding you guys with all sorts of teasers and clips for the upcoming splendor that is UP IN THE AIR, which our own Copernicus declared "the film to beat for Best Picture this year." I happen to concur.

Today, I've got clip given exclusively to AICN that features the film's star, George Clooney, and the always-excellent Jason Bateman, who plays Clooney's boss, who is announcing his intention to saddle the solitude-oriented Clooney with a temporary partner. Enjoy!

Starting February, <br>LOST Will Air Tuesdays!!<br>

I am – Hercules!!

“Lost” will air at 9 p.m. Tuesdays instead of in its traditional Wednesday berth, ABC announced Thursday.

This suggests it will have to contend with Fox’s top-rated megahit “American Idol,” which often airs in both the 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. timeslots on Wednesdays.

I think this is “Lost’s” first time on Tuesday.
