And with the new casting announcement comes some fresh plot info, which reads thus: “Picking up the story three years after Mike bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, the film finds the remaining Kings of Tampa likewise ready to throw in the towel. But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last bl

TV Review: Gotham “Pilot” By: Brandon Wolfe In perhaps his most well known stand-up bit, Patton Oswalt sums up his reaction to the ‘ Star Wars ’ prequel trilogy, and prequels altogether, by railing to the heavens/George Lucas that he doesn’t care where the stuff he loves comes from, he just loves the stuff he loves. That condemnation seems tailor-made for application to Fox’s new series ‘ Gotham ,’ a crime-drama that takes us back to the days when Gotham City wasn’t patrolled by a man in a batsuit, but by a stalwart young rookie cop named Jim Gordon ( Ben McKenzie ), standing true against the villainy and corruption the city teems with, including within his own precinct. Bruce Wayne is here, but he’s a preteen boy, probably a good decade away from putting on a cowl and cape. So you get to see Batman as a little kid. Just as your heart always wanted. Our first sight in ‘Gotham’ is of another youthful incarnation of a famous Gothamite, as a nascent Selina Kyle prowls the stre

Here is a new clip from the upcoming show Gotham . It's all about the villains. “Gotham” is an origin story of the great DC Comics super villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. From executive producer/writer Bruno Heller (“The Mentalist,” “Rome”), “Gotham” follows one cop’s rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering on the edge of evil and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time. Growing up in Gotham City’s surrounding suburbs, James Gordon (Ben McKenzie, “Southland,” “The O.C.”) romanticized the city as a glamorous and exciting metropolis where his late father once served as a successful district attorney. Now, two weeks into his new job as a Gotham City detective and engaged to his beloved fiancée, Barbara Kean (Erin Richards, Open Grave, “Breaking In”), Gordon is living his dream – even as he hopes to restore the city back to the pure version he remembers it was as a kid.

Fox’s Batman prequel Gotham has signed Jada Pinkett Smith to its cast, but you’ll literally never guess who she’s playing. Catwoman? Harley Quinn? A gender twist on The Riddler or Joker , perhaps? We’re told Mrs. Will Smith will play … “ Fish Mooney .” That name should leave even die-hard DC Comics fans scratching their heads. In the show, Fish is “a sadistic gangster boss and nightclub owner, she’s got the street smarts and almost extra-sensory abilities to read people like an open book. Imposing and hotheaded, she’s not one to be crossed.” Fish Mooney also the boss of a young psycho named Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor), who eventually becomes The Penguin (and we all know what penguins eat … right?). The casting marks The Matrix Reloaded and Revolution‘s actress return to TV following the axing of her 2009 medical drama TNT series Hawthorne. Sources close to the production say Fish is likely an entirely original character. But since all the other characters

MADAGASCAR 3 Movie Review By: RAMA Did MADAGASCAR 3 cause RAMA to move it? It’s kinda tough getting into this film when you’re feeling indifferent about the previous installments, but MADAGASCAR 3 has enough punch lines and jokes to make up for the weak story. And just like its predecessors, this too moves ridiculously fast, each scene comes and goes like a speeding bullet, MADAGASCAR franchise is made for those with either short attention span or ADHD condition.. Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Gloria the Hippo, and Melman the Giraffe are still fighting to get home to their beloved Big Apple and of course, King Julien, Maurice and the Penguins are all along for the comedic adventure. Their journey takes them through Europe where they find the perfect cover: a traveling circus, which they reinvent – Madagascar style. The last time we saw Alex, Marty, gloria, and Melman, they were in Africa and the story was mostly about Alex reconnecting with his dad and his lion heritage.

We couldn't be more thrilled to be working with our friends at Overbrook as they launch this new venture.” In a press release announcing that Overbrook Entertainment and Jay-Z are teaming up, Columbia Pictures confirmed that they have a remake of Annie in the
