I found a gem from the land of  “never-heard-of-it’. It’s called ‘New Suit’, and it gets a ‘recommended’ by Moby. ‘New Suit’ is sort of a modern update on ‘The Emperor Has No Clothes’ with a nice Hollywood twist. Our protagonist is Kevin (Jordan Bridges), a writer who can’t get his work read and is basically not taken seriously by ‘Hollywood’ types (think Ted Danson, but as a writer). And so Kevin ends up taking a menial job as an office assistant to a desperate Hollywood producer played by veteran actor Dan Hedaya. Dan does a great job; he really nails that surprised, wide-eyed ‘You looking at me?’ thing he does so well. Continue reading »

I mean, if their actually going to do a Hong Kong Fuey film, then Moby can think of all kinds of stuff he would like to see made into feature films. Continue reading »

Following the record opening for the avengers this weekend, I decided to pop into HSX, the Hollywood Stock Exchange, to see the reaction the market was having to the record breaking opening of The Avengers. The impact was immediately clear.

If you will, just imagine a camera doing a dramatic close up of Dr. Evil as he asks for…200 Mil-lion Dollars. So it’s huge, and everybody is shocked, even those claiming not to be (does anything shock them, ever ever?). But what Moby wonders is…are superheroes now their own genre, like horror and sci-fi? I mean, officially? Continue reading »
