Look At This!

Here's some movie news and views from around the net that just caught my eye. Make sure you check them out:

While I eagerly await the release of the 2 disc director's cut of Crash in a few weeks, DVD Active has posted the cover art for the set.

But all is not rosy for the best picture winner of 2005. Reuters has a story about a fierce battle behind the scenes that's been brewing for quite a while. CRASH And Burn indeed.

Variety's Gabriel Snyder has a great article on all the money that's being spent to "tout titles", but also asks the key question, "...at what cost? Be sure to read Pic biz does the splits for the complete numbers crunch.

The March 17th 2006 issue of Entertainment Weekly takes us through every aspect of last Sunday's Big Night--including the lead article by Dave Karger, while Missy Schwartz answers those Burning Questions about the ceremony that made us all scratch our heads, Joshua Rich has fun working out some OSCAR Math, all topped off by horror master Stephen King and his take on the whole thing in a column called, Crashing The Party.

As someone who has been labeled a "film geek" in my life, I really got a kick out of seeing the trailer for the film with the same name. The movie, which opens in theaters today, has gone under the radar. It's my hope that, after you see the preview, you'll do what I did. Visit the official site for more information.
