Hmmm. I'm interested.

Looks like Kevin Smith's next film is going to be a bit unexpected:

I wonder if he'll have a complete fit like he did last time when critics didn't like his film. Almost worth following to see.

Worth a look, but Smith peaked with Dogma. And nothing in his canon suggests he can do horror.

For me Smith peaked right off the bat with 'Clerks'. He's made some good films since, but nothing to match that classic.

As for whther he can do it, I know he writes lots of comics, so perhaps he's flexed these muscles in that side of his work??

Didn't he make Batman piss himself in a comic lol

Is it going to be less shit than the Toby McGuire (is that his name?) Spiderman?

I thought his first two were pretty good. The third one was pure, undiluted horse shit, though.

They were great movies, especially the second one.

It's hard to rewatch the second one after having seen Roger And Val Have Just Got In.

:D Octoman and Val Have Just Got In would have been quite good.

I like Tobey Maguire in other things, but never really loved the Spiderman films. They were okay though. Bit cheesy.
This new one is supposed to be darker. But that's what they always say.

Anne Hathaway Confirmed As Catwoman And Tom Hardy As Bane In The Dark Knight Rises

I've no idea who Bane is, but Tom Hardy's a good actor. Great in Inception.

Bane is the guy who broke Batman's back. Good character though you'd never tell from 'Batman and Robin'

Bit meh about Catwoman. Does anyone really care she's in it?
