lol Why? To piss off Jakester? :)

New Image of IRON MAN Online - Jan 09, 2008 - 04:40pm
Same thoughts, Almost. This film continues to be one of my top anticipated films of 2008. Robert Downey Jr. seems to be the perfect actor to tackle the Tony Stark character and I love the trailers given to us already at this point. I'm curious on what the SB ad will be..and I believe we're getting our first Hulk ad at the SB as well.

THE WOLFMAN Begins Filming Feb 8 - Jan 09, 2008 - 04:32pm
Heh, Greg..I understand what you are saying here. I've seen the Lon Chaney classic tale so I know where it's based out of. I'm a horror fantatic. I know what you're saying..We just don't write up or edit plot summaries given by the official sources. If it helps, I believe Universal means.. "It will be like 1941 classic...only the new film will be set in Victoria England" I can add an "only the" into the plot concept but I can tell you a lot of us don't like doing that. Check out Comingsoon's database entry for The Wolfman..or any number of other sites. We don't like to touch plot concepts or make up plot summaries. We just copy the exact wording from the studio's official site or press release. If they have it worded strange, that's something they should fix in their statements first before we touch it. In a lot of cases, we do send them notes on errors. Remember that press release about Spock's mother being human over at Variety a few months back..A lot of editors sent in the error there and wanted clarification before we published that information. This Wolfman one just happens to be a point which nobody has bothered telling Universal to correct their press releases..Because like the Trek snafu, it's a wording issue. I'll change it for you though..Just letting you know my thoughts on the whole "plot concept" and "plot summary" deal. I had a few comments a few months ago telling me about how a plot was wrong for the subject matter at hand..Had to explain the same thing..The plot may be different than the source material (book, in that case) but that's the plot given to us.
