House of Sand & Fog Meets Poltergeist?

A little bit ago I did a story on MGM bringing back Poltergeist, well it seems that the boys over at Bloody-Distgusting have some new word on the possible remake. Their source says Vadim Perelman, director of "House of Sand and Fog" and "The Life Before Her Eyes," is in heavy talks to direct the remake with MGM. My intial reaction was, really?

Fast & Furious Trailer!!

Hate me you all want, but I am a big fan of the Fast & Furious franchise, and have enjoyed each movie for what they were. The original is a blatant rip of "Point Break" but like Point Break I can watch it every time! The second of the series was pretty bad, but had some good racing sequences, and I guess my "man crush" on Paul Walker made the film watchable (I have the hardest time re-watching "2 Fast 2 Furious" by far of all the films). Tokyo...
