Mel Gibson Eyes Role In Machete Kills
24 April 2012 3:06 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
The only thing crazier than Mel Gibson may be hiring Mel Gibson.
There are bad ideas and then there are Bad ideas. Skiing is a bad idea. Taking a helicopter to an otherwise inaccessible mountaintop just to ski down is a Bad idea.
A couple weeks ago, hiring Mel Gibson to play even a bit role was a bad idea, chock full of potential to prove once and for all that there is, indeed, such a thing as bad press. Now, after a fortnight that started with an allegation followed by a steadfast denial followed by the lightning bolt of crackling, muffled, auditory proof, hiring Mel Gibson to do anything other than sit in the dummy chair atop a dunk tank boiling with electric eels would be a Bad idea.
Thank God there are still rebels out there like Robert Rodriguez, or this Hollywood tragedy might die a slow, irrelevant death. »

Wamg Interview: Julie Adams – Star of Creature From The Black Lagoon
19 March 2012 5:42 PM, PDT | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
She.ll always be best known as Kay Lawrence, the beauty that the Gillman falls in love with the moment he spies her swimming above him in Creature From The Black Lagoon (1954). Mimicking her movements in the water, the Creature performs a lustful underwater mating dance . he.s directly beneath her but she’s unaware of his amorous overtures in the murky depths of the river. It.s a desire most men (and monster kids) could relate to and Julie Adams is the actress who will always be fondly remembered as the .girl in the white one-piece..
Born Betty May Adams and raised near Little Rock Arkansas, Julie was bit by the acting bug early and moved to California to become an actress. She worked as a secretary to support herself and spent her free time taking speech lessons and making the rounds at the various movie studio casting departments. »

Busting
1 February 2012 10:41 AM, PST | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
Back in the early days of cable, movies were rerun endlessly so if you liked one, you could burn their frames onto your retinas and it became a part of yourself. As a result, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for 1974’s Busting. You sit there, scratching your head, and can’t recall the film and there’s no shame in that.
Written and directed by Peter Hyams (The Star Chamber, Outland), it is a buddy cop film before that became in vogue and is very much from the era. It has a nice grainy film stock, makes the cops and the thugs slovenly and a visual shambles. While most of Hyams’ peers set their gritty tales of big city corruption and the only honest cops’ efforts to bring down the kingpin of crime in New York City, Hyams set his in Los Angeles, although you’d be hard-pressed to tell. »

Top Los Angeles Cop Retires
11 January 2012 2:01 PM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »
The Los Angeles cop who escorted Lindsay Lohan into court multiple times last year and once took O.J. Simpson to hospital during his murder trial has retired.
Sheriff's sergeant Steve Wheatcroft has served on the force for 24 years and handed over his badge on Friday, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Sgt. Wheatcroft also led the jury to music producer Phil Spector's Alhambra mansion during his 2009 murder trial and to the car park of Studio City, California restaurant Vitello's, where actor Robert Blake's wife was killed in 2001. The Baretta star was later acquitted of the crime. »
