The daily “Grind” [House questions]




Got a Question for Clint to answer? Wanna make a comment on something? Then drop us a line




Letters

From Abking : Clint, after reading your LEGALLY BLONDES story MGM should put T4 to DVD if they can’t get Arnie to cameo in T4 as a major selling point.
abking, I’m sure it’s something they’ve discussed too – but the “Terminator” series is such a money-spinner for the studio that there’s no way they wouldn’t at least try and do another big special-effects money-disappearing extravaganza again. I assume, if Schwarzenegger doesn’t come back, they’ll just get another ‘name’ to star in the film (it is the first part in a new trilogy, after all); maybe someone like a Vin Diesel or hey… Sylvester Stallone! – Clint



From Matthew : Hi there,
Great website and great content. I visit everyday for my latest movie news. Only bad thing is the use of swear words. There have been a few too many f*ck words in the reviews making the site a bit unprofessional. Good luck with the site..

Oh fuck, didn’t think anyone would fuckin notice. I’m going to go out of my way to not fuckin’ swear in front of any more fuckin’ good folks ever again. Fuckin’ promise – Clint



From Jenna : Hi Moviehole, I got a few questions and only Moviehole can answer them because I don’t trust anyone else! Is it true that Alyson Hannigan signed on Scooby-Doo 3 to play the role of Daphne Blake?(The role that Sarah Michelle Gellar played in the two scooby movies); So is the script to “Jurassic Park 4” still Jacked up or did they fix that?; Is it true that Brett Ratner is working with Warner Bros. to make a Live-Action “Hong Kong Phooey” movie…If true it BETTER NOT BE LIKE X3~!!!!
Hi Jenna. Love your rack. Loved your last movie. Haven’t heard those rumours about Alyson Hannigan doing “Scooby Doo 3”, let alone playing Daphne, so I’d presume its BS; The script for “Jurassic Park 4” has been written and re-written about fifty times since word leaked online that it was rubbish; yep Ratner’s doing a “Phooey” movie…. and yes, it’ll suck. – Clint



From Nina : Guy Pearce is married? That sucks. The good ones are always taken
Yep, and here’s my ring… oh, and the one on my finger – Clint.



From Chris : Hey, do you know if Terry Brook’s THE SWORD OF SHANNARA has been optioned for a feature film? It is one of the best selling fantasy novels of all time and has many similarities to “The Lord of the Rings”. Hope you might now, Chris P.S – do you think Mel Gibson will do a film for the fans? e.g. “Lethal Weapon 5” or “Mad Max 4” or “Conspiracy Theory 2”?
No idea about the first one, but it wouldn’t surprise me; as for Mel Gibson doing a film for the fans, I know he knocked back an offer last year to reprise his role as Martin Riggs for a “Lethal Weapon 5” and I know he’s definitely not returning for the next “Mad Max”… so I’d say it’s unlikely he’ll be doing another sequel, if that’s what you mean? – Clint



From Victoria : Hello Movie Hole- Hope all is well! I wanted to quickly introduce myself, my name is Victoria and I work at Wiredset in New York. I wanted to also keep you in the loop about Calvin Klein’s new fragrance CK IN2U and the amazing film contest that took place allowing student express what they are “In 2”. The winner, Joseph Schedeler managed to score a nice little chunk of change ($10,000!) and a trip to the CK IN2U launch party and Vail Film Festival where his film “Gravitation” was shown. Now, Calvin Klein basically can’t resist giving out some more money so checking out www.whatareyouin2.com for contest details and shot away (or inform all your film lovers about it!) It would be fantastic if you could share this information with your readers. Also, you can view “Gravitation” along with the runners up at the site as well. Here are soe cool photos with Sophia Bush, Joseph Schedeler and other notables. Feel free to use them as you wish 🙂 flickr.com. Enjoy and cant wait to hear your thoughts! All the best,
Send me some Calvins and I’ll move the item to the front page – Clint



From David : Hi Clint, Recently I did an interview with Martin Casella, who served as Spielberg’s assistant on a few films before landing the role of “Marty” in “Poltergeist.” Feel free to mention the interview and/or post a link on your site: poltergeistiii.com
Mentioned. Linked. – Clint



From Scarlett : I know many didn’t see “The Hulk” bringing in Ed Norton for this role but I am one proud ecstatic fan about this. Ed Norton can give Christian Bale and Robert Downey Jr. a run for their money.
And maybe even Matt Salinger as “Captain America”, too!– Clint



From Matthew: Hey Clint, just want to say how totally fucked up it is that “Grindhouse” is being split in two. Me and my buddies have been looking forward to it for ages and were gonna get a big group of us together for opening night. Now, i can hardly be bothered. Knowing that we are not getting the film as it’s intended to be seen is fucked. The Weinsteins are making a big mistake on the splitting of the films. yah, just wanted to vent. lol. Hopefully they’ll come to there senses and leave it as is. hasta luego
Hey Matthew, you just swore. We don’t fuckin’ allow that here. – Clint



From Kathy : Hello Clint, I’m boycotting “Grindhouse”. Australia is going to charge us twice to see the same movie they’re saying in America? Screw that!.
The good news is, “Blades of Glory” won’t be split into two – Clint



From Mick : I can’t believe they’re going to release the two “Grindhouse” films separately?! Clint, I know you have some power and sway down under, please do what you can to make sure they don’t do this!? Please! I think we deserve to see the film the way the filmmakers intended. I hate the film industry today.
I hated it the day they decided to cast Ice Cube in a remake of “Welcome Back, Kotter”. – Clint



From Rosie : They’re not going to release “Grindhouse” as the one film, but yet they release shit like “Eragon” and “Wild Hogs”? wide, on thousands of screens? What gives? Who makes the decisions?.
The guy with the calculator and the pencils in his pocket – Clint.



From MDRPublicity : Have you seen “Grindhouse” Clint? You so have to! Its brilliant! I can tell you’re excited about it… and a little bummed that Australia has canned its release.
No, haven’t seen it, and probably won’t be seeing it for a while either. The release plan for “Hills Have Eyes 2” (groan) is still on track though.– Clint



From Gail : What happened to Joel Schumacher’s “A Star is born”. I haven’t heard anything for a long time. What’s up?
He’s waiting for Colin Farrell to become available… so he can get him fitted for a dress – Clint



From Charles : Clint, interesting news on the “Barbarella” remake. Saw Barbarella 2008 is already listed at imdb.com. Who do you think would have the inside track on the lead role? The other roles will be interesting casting choices and I think Matthew Helms would make a great Pygar.
According to the ever-so-reliable British press, Kate Beckinsale has it in the bag – so you can pretty much guarantee she won’t be playing the lead role – Clint.



From Chrissy : I wanna kiss you all over, and over again….
God I hope you’re not a guy who likes to add a ewwwwy ‘sy’ onto his name – Clint



From Xavier : Do you know if Joss Whedon has a MySpace?
I don’t think he does. I know there are some impostor sites… but I don’t believe any of them are him. You can ‘friend’ me though… here – Clint

Grindhouse

The return of Corey Feldman?
