Friends Movie Just a Horrible, Horrible Rumour. For Now.

by Ian Dransfield

It's become quite sad how strapped for ideas Hollywood has become. Not content with raiding everything from our childhoods – Transformers, Thundercats, The Smurfs – and not even leaving it alone after travesties such as Starsky and Hutch or Miami Vice, the top bods have had to look to things that haven't even left the [...]

MOVIE REVIEW: The Happening

by hecklerspray staff

M. Night Shyamalan’s latest effort looked to be the return to darker, more suspense filled territory after Lady In The Water drowned with critics and audiences alike.

Unfortunately while the premise suggests that in this film shit happens, we’re unhappy to say that, while score one for pun usage, it turns out that Happening’s shit.

Top 8 Movie Sociopaths

by David Schwartz

"Am I here to amuuz you?" Joe Pesci once menacingly asked in Goodfellas. Well, yes you are, to be honest. It's hard to admit it, but we are always very entertained by sociopaths in movies. Maybe it's something in our DNA which finds nutters fascinating. Now, at Hecklerspray we deplore violence. But, as we said [...]

Watch ‘Watchmen’ Clips Online Now

by C J Davies

Comic book fans will no doubt be aware that seminal 1980s graphic novel Watchmen is making its way to the big screen.

What you might not know, however, is that director Zack Snyder commissioned an intriguing little competition for amateur film-makers to contribute to the upcoming feature. Entrants had to create a TV commercial set within the Watchmen universe – an alternative-history 1985 where superheroes have driven key world events.

Got some time to waste? Good. Then you can pop over to YouTube and have a look at some of the winning entries. They’re all frankly fantastic, with a particular favourite being the spot-on toy commercial.

Oh – and is this the geekiest post in hecklerspray history? Very possibly.

Some Physicians: The Incredible Hulk Fills Children’s Lungs With Filthy Green Cancer

by Shawn Lindseth

Generally when the Incredible Hulk smites his enemies, he has a small arsenal of weapons – his triceps, his biceps, and if rumors circulating about the 2011 sequel are to be believed – a golden machete. He doesn’t need anything else – but that doesn’t mean he’s unwilling to consider all his options. Lung cancer, [...]

Apocalypse Wow! Seth Rogen Possibly Stoned

by Ian Dransfield

Seth Rogen is fast becoming one of the great character actors of our time. The portly star of a string of comedies over the last couple of years has managed to wow us all with his portrayal of a slobbish stoner with a kind heart, a slobbish stoner with a kind heart and a slobbish [...]

New ‘Smurfs’ Movie Will Be Live Action. Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid.

by Ian Dransfield

Is nothing from our childhoods sacred? The prospect of a movie based on the ancient and well-regarded cartoon The Smurfs was hardly something that had filled us with joy. It made hecklerspray let out a trademark sigh as we looked forward to another summer of movies single-handedly decimating the best years of our lives. But [...]

Britain’s Got Talent Inspires World’s Stupidest Film

by Stuart Heritage

Do you like films? Do you like real-life tales of against-the-odds struggle? Does your single-digit IQ often cause you to clap along to Saturday evening TV theme-tunes?

You answered yes to all the above? Well, then this must be your lucky day – because it’s been announced that a Billy Elliot-style movie is to be made about George Sampson, the disabled teenage breakdancing winner of Britain’s Got Talent.

Having said that, there’s a possibility that Simon Cowell is just going to send a bunch of heavies to visit five million of the most stupid people in Britain and steal £7.50 from each of them instead, because that way Cowell gets his money and nobody has to waste their time going to see his rubbish film.

Eddie Murphy Makes Beverly Hills Cop 4, Self-Loathing Possibly Responsible

by Stuart Heritage

Beverly Hills Cop 3 left all manner of questions unanswered – ranging from “A big wheel? Huh?” to “Deary piss, why hasn’t this film ended yet?”

So praise be that Eddie Murphy has finally decided to go and make the long-anticipated but massively unwanted Beverly Hills Cop 4. We haven’t been this excited by anything Eddie Murphy’s done since every single lunatic decision about his personal life that he’s made in the last decade.

However, it’s been 14 years since the last Beverly Hills Cop movie was released, so Beverly Hills Cop 4 will need to reflect where Eddie Murphy’s career has taken him in the meantime. In short, all the characters in Beverly Hills Cop 4 will be played by Eddie Murphy and they’ll all wear female fat suits and the whole thing will be set inside Eddie Murphy’s head andthere’ll be a talking raccoon in there somewhere as well. Oh, and it’ll be crap.
