Now this is good news. THR is reporting that the sequel to Goon, the awesome cult hockey movie starring Seann William Scott, will be directed by actor Jay Baruchel, making his directorial debut with this film. Baruchel is a major proponent behind the entire film, as he’s co-writing the screenplay with Jesse Chabot, and also starring again as Seann William Scott’s character’s friend Pat. Of course they’ve got Seann William Scott back as violent hockey player Doug “The Thug” Glatt and they’re already gearing up to start filming in June in Toronto. I’ve got a good feeling about…

Cannes: First Looks at Son Of Saul, The Lobster, Irrational Man and The Sea Of Trees
Two potential prize-winners are already in the mix…It’s rare that two strong Palme D’Or contenders screen straight out of the gate, and this year’s awards buzz began with Laszlo Nemes’s Son Of Saul, an incredibly powerful Holocaust drama that has been accurately, if somewhat fantastically inappropriately, tagged “Gravity in Auschwitz” by the French press. This by no means suggests that the film is any way a lavish sci-fi spectacle, but it does go some way to explaining what an incredible technical achievement it is.Following a brief description…
Doomsday Will be A Major Villain In Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice
When the titular characters of Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice aren’t trying to make each other bleed, they’ll be dealing with the movie’s true villain Lex Luthor. However, while Luthor is not lacking in intellect, physically he’s not a threat unless he’s wearing that green and purple exosuit. Fortunately, Superman (and possibly Batman) will likely have someone to match brawn with, as it’s being reported that the 2016 blockbuster’s other major villain will one of DC Comics’ top-killing

Terry Richardson Photographed Anastasia Ashley’s Ass
Anastasia Ashley’s ass has been celebrated the world over ever since a video doing her warm-up twerk was posted online. Forgot what I’m talking about? Got you covered, pervert.

Quentin Tarantino Says He Regrets Suing Gawker
ABC Quentin Tarantino famously sued Gawker and vowed not to make The Hateful Eight after his script was leaked, but that’s all in the past as Hateful approaches its late 2015 release. While Tarantino at one point narrowed the possible culprit down to six people, including Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, and Bruce Dern, and even filed a lawsuit against Gawker, he now tell Entertainment Weekly he never did find out who leaked it, and that his Gawker lawsuit really wasn’t about Gawker: The suit would subsequently be tossed out, refiled, and eventually dropped by Tarantino, who now admits that the legal saga ended up serving as more of a distraction than redress. “I almost regret the whole suing Gawker because it …
