Review: Zombieland
Zombieland originally began as a television series pitch but all the networks turned it down. While there is no way to know if it would've succeeded on TV, the concept evolved into an ideal standalone movie and potentially a franchise.

Five Minute Clip from 2012
In what appears to be the most insane disaster movie ever if the trailer and this five minute clip from the movie are any indication, 2012 is gearing up for its release on November 13th. The latest promotion was a two minute excerpt of the movie that aired on all the major networks last night which as a tactic is unheard of. That excerpt has been expanded in the five minute piece from the film. Director Roland Emmerich is looking to top his previous films which include Independence Day and T...
