Cinematical Visits G4's Attack of the Show!
Filed under: Action », Site Announcements », Fandom », Angelina Jolie », Johnny Depp », Home Entertainment », Comic/Superhero/Geek », Remakes and Sequels »
Last night Cinematical's James Rocchi was a guest on G4's Attack of the Show, where he and Chris Hardwick spoke about all those crazy Batman rumors spreading like wildfire across the internet. Ya know, how Angelina Jolie supposedly wants to play Catwoman, Philip Seymour Hoffman as the Penguin and/or Johnny Depp as Riddler.
As James points out, these are all "just rumors" right now and there's no way of telling which characters Christopher Nolan and his screenwriter brother Jonathan Nolan have in mind without actually speaking to them. It should be noted that Cinematical has also confirmed that Chris Nolan currently does not have a deal to direct a third film, and if he does hop onboard, they'll have to negotiate something first. But enough of my babbling, check out James above, and much thanks to Attack of the Show for inviting us on.

Monday Morning Podcast: Weird Winners
Filed under: Podcasts », Box Office », Oscar Watch »

Hey, here's something new - last night, James Rocchi and I bridged the 3,000 miles between San Francisco and Brooklyn via Gizmo Project and recorded a podcast. We started talking about Tyler Perry, whose latest film, Madea's Family Reunion, made $30 million this weeekend – proving that the studios' recent tactic of witholding their trash from critics is really working. We then make the logical leap to talking about the Oscars – specifically, this year's acting nominees. Admittedly, we're still working out some tech stuff, but give us a shot – we've got some exciting stuff planned for the weeks ahead. The show's about 17 minutes long, and you can check it out here.
