To quote our mom: We need this like we need a loch in kop.

What the hell are they thinking????

Some a-hole has decided to remake Clue.

Our friend John told us about it last night and we could only think of one thing:

“Flames, on the side of my face. Breathing…breathless…heaving breaths.”

Why must they screw around with a film that is already brilliant and perfect?

This better be as good as Clue.

Although we don’t see how it could be.

Ridley Scott has signed on to direct a big screen adaptation of Monopoly.

As in the board game, with hotels and railroads.

Ridley will supposedly give the Monopoly movie a futuristic spin a la his 1982 epic Blade Runner.

Oookay.

Monopoly is one of several projects in a partnership with Hasbro Games and Universal Studios.

Michael Bay is on board (pardon the pun) to co-produce a live action Ouija film for Universal. The movie will be produced in association with Hasbro, the maker of Ouija as well as Monopoly, Candy Land, Chutes & Ladders and Clue.

The only reason we think the film might not be painfully horrendous is because 1985’s Clue is such an excellent and imminently quotable film.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
