WONDER WOMAN Scribe Hired to Write DC’s LOBO Movie
For the past several years, Warner Bros. has been trying to get a Lobo movie off the ground.

Review: SUPERMAN III
Superman III (1983) Written By: David and Leslie Newman Directed By: Richard Lester Here’s a question: How do you follow up on the massive success of Richard Donner’s Superman and Richard Lester’s Superman II?

Richard Pryor, one of the greatest comedic voice in history is on Johnny Carson…

Review: BATMAN FOREVER
Batman Forever is the third film in the series of Tim Burton films. Here we have Joel Schumacher in the directors chair, and Burton as a producer. We also have new villains, a new sidekick, and even a new Batman!
