  • “There’s something about juxtaposing something outlandish like a monster with gritty naturalism. It was so real-looking. The Spielbergian idea of the ordinary and the extraordinary is very relatable and accessible.” Cloverfield director Matt Reeves talks to Anne Thompson about using Blair Witch techniques on a studio tentpole.
  • Oh, sweet strike irony: The Newspaper Guild, which reps 19 employees of the WGA East, have accused the Writers Guild of engaging in unfair labor practices. Filings related to the dispute claim that the WGAE attempted to sneakily revise a previous ratified contract, and also “threatened a union leader and delayed paying holiday bonuses.”
  • Johnny Depp has rather shockingly beat out Will Smith as the choice of U.S. exhibitors for 2007’s the most profitable movie star. For the first time in a quarter century, each star who placed in the top ten had a penis.
  • Bernardo Bertolucci is getting a star on prime real estate of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, right in front of the Chinese Theater. For a 60-something foreign director with no current name-to-face recognition, who hasn’t had a mainstream hit in 21 years, that kind of location has gotta cost more than the standard $25k, right?
