Beowulfman on the Street

The Boneman, Sheldon, Tyler, and I arrive in San Diego at about 5:00 P.M. on Wednesday, July 25th. We check into our hotel and make our way to the San Diego Convention Center. We're pumped. After driving around for a good twenty minutes, it becomes completely apparent that finding a parking space is... [More]

My Name is Mudd - Tyler trashes Ashes Farce

There is one review that had been missing from the already extensive reports of the festival this year and that is of the work in progress by Horror cult hero "My Name Is Bruce" Campbell starring none other than the chinman himself. Now the term work-in-progress is supposed to shelter this film from... [More]

Comicon 2007 Nerds-Eye Preview

Comicon 2007 Nerds-Eye Preview

Of all the various events I cover for Zboneman.com, Comic-Con is probably my favorite. Why? Because it's an event created by fans for the fans. Now I'm not much of a comic book geek, and while that is Comic-Con's primary focus, the convention also prides itself on being a breathtaking hot spot fo... [More]

Keeping Up With the Indianas

Keeping Up With the Indianas

I absolutely love Indiana Jones. Raiders of the Lost Ark is one of my all time favorite movies. The latest chapter in the famed franchise has been in development for years. Shawshank Redemption director Frank Darabont took a whack at the screenplay (for whatever reason, George Lucas rejected the scr... [More]

Adam's Showest Finale

Adam's Showest Finale

Though I'm a bit late getting this posted, there's a lot here for the movie geek in anyone. HAIRSPRAY The Hairspray presentation was far and away the most exciting (and entertaining) event I was witness to at ShoWest 2007. It's not often that you see a remake of a remake of a remake, and tha... [More]

Coachella From Hella

Coachella From Hella

As I sit here sweltering in the unseasonably warm spring digits (90+) my trusty cohorts Adam and Kyle are chillin' in Palm Springs, no doubt grooving to the sounds of perhaps the best Coachella Festival line-up ever. I will say that I feel lucky that I didn't go with them this year, because I got a... [More]

What Happens in Vegas is Funny

This will be my final Showest report. (I swear) I'm going to start with a review of El Contante (is it Gigli 2?) starring Jennifer Lopez and hubby Marc Antony, and then fill you in on Lionsgate's presentation starring my run in with The Exorcist king William Friedkin. Don't miss this one, this is th... [More]

I've managed to get most of those up save for Shooter and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which should be up soo... [More]

2 Men, 4 Films & a Bone 2 Pick!

The International Presentation would showcase footage reels from all the major studios save for Fox who, for whatever reason, was nowhere to be found. Before the presentation, a spokesman from NATO hit the stage and kindly asked if any press folk were in attendance. A few of us sheepishly raised ou... [More]

Big Trouble in Little Vegas

Big Trouble in Little Vegas

So, The Boneman beat me to the punch. His first report is already up. Me? I'm still trying to play catch up. Hell, I have yet to post my 300 review (I liked it by the way), but given that Zack Snyder's new film has made over a bazillion dollars, I figured I'd get all of this ShoWest stuff posted fir...

Showest 2007 - Film and Loathing in Las Vegas!

Showest 2007 - Film and Loathing in Las Vegas!

Just back from Showest 07 – which due to a number of strange developments was something of a harrowing experience for the 3 intrepid reporters dispatched by the Bone - as well as our celebrated cyber-pals in arms. To call it Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is not an exaggeration, but this is business... [More]
