Watchmen Movie Headed for Trouble

Friday, January 2nd, 2009

As Systemic TheMonkey pointed out in the comments for today’s post, The Watchmen movie is in trouble once again.  After years of limbo with rights, the movie finally did get greenlit and by this point hopefully is in post production.  However, it seems that Fox and Warner Bros. aren’t done struggling over things.

A Los Angeles federal judge has ruled that 20th Century Fox owns the distribution rights to “Watchmen,” representing a setback for Warner Bros.’ plans to release the pic in March.

Unclear what the results of this judgement will be, but rest assured it does not bode well for fans.  Thanks for the link, MonkeyBoy!  Link.

B-Movie Titles

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

Via BoingBoing.

Mr. Bali Hai has compiled a fair-sized gallery of B-movie opening titles. I’ve seen a few of these movies, and it’s probably safe to say that the titles are the best parts.

Some “great” typography in there, not to mention some hilarious titles.  This is all the pics of the title sequences.  Link.

Advertising with Rosscott, Inc.

Sunday, January 4th, 2009

A quick note:  I have added Google Adsense to the right-hand sidebar, as well as Project Wonderful advertising between the comic posts and whatever comes after them.  Let’s face it, the Google Ads are just to see what happens, but the PW ads are with the hope that interesting people actually use them and then other interesting people actually click on them.

If you’re a webcomic artist or otherwise website owner looking to get some exposure (heh), check it out on Project Wonderful.  If it’s a real website and not utter crap or offensive as hell, I’ll let it by.  As of right now, the price is wavering between free and $0.01, so I bet it’s in your price range.

If you are one of those people who feels that these small advertisements clutter up the wonderful, exciting content you’ve come to expect from this site, I encourage you to send me $20, at which point I’ll take down the ads for a month.

Jason Statham has never been in a great movie. He’s also never been in a boring one. Statham’s imdb.com profile, collectively, is a promise to you, the weary filmgoer. It’s a promise that says, “I promise that you will not FOR ONE SECOND be bored during one of my movies. You won’t learn shit about the human condition, or feel a collective connection with the brotherhood of man. But if you give me $10, I will f*** an explosion while a Slayer song plays”.

Thanks Marty, for posting a great article.  Go read it.  PATTON+STATHAM 4EVA at Blast-O-Rama
