Hey guys, it's Dagwood...In my usual online snooping, I came across this video, which, while not a legit trailer, is definitely worth a look. I, for one, am both really excited about and utterly terrified of the Transformers movie. I loved the show. I loved the toys. I just hope I can love the movie.

Dagwood, here:Donnie's been kidnapped, so I guess the booth will continue to be on hiatus until Max and I can save up some cash to buy our tickets to Panama to talk his ex-wife into letting him out. *sigh*On an entirely different note, I bought the Tremors Attack Pack, and it's amazing.

Hey guys, it's Max...Oh how much I've missed since I've been away. Where shall we start?The Matt M. Sarah Jessica P. vehicle Failure To Launch wins number one spot at the box office this weekend...which answers the question of which is the worst movie to ever to capture the number one spot for a weekend.Coming in second? Tim Allen in the new remake of The Shaggy Dog. Come on folks, take a look at

Hey guys, it's Donnie...So by now this picture has disseminated all over the internet and Max Fischer was kind enough to point it out on Friday, but I feel like I should weigh in on our first real bona fide look at Spider-Man in his third go around. To the right is the image that Sony released last week, along with the disclaimer that it is NOT a black and white picture but is, in fact, Spidey

Hey guys, it's Max..... Yeah, that's right. Introducing me: The first ever featured writer in the Movie Booth. Now Donnie gets someone to fellate him while screening these crazy things we call movies. But only if he buys the popcorn...What I have in store for you is a weekly jabbering of crazy movie related things and what I think about them. Call me the David Spade of The Movie Booth. I would,

Hey guys, it's Donnie...I know, I know, you're thinking "Donnie, you've finally lost it. You've gone completely 'round the bend."And before you ask, yes, I am aware that Paul Walker is in this movie. And guess what? He doesn't suck. He's actually pretty damn good.This is probably the best directed movie to be released so far this year, which is obviously not saying much at this point, but

Hey guys, it's Donnie...I just got back from a screening of Brian DePalma's newest, The Black Dahlia, over in Sherman Oaks. Let's get straight to the point: This movie, while FAR from finished, is a disaster of tremendous proportions.First off, I know nothing about the true story of the Black Dahlia nor have I read James Ellroy's novel. I had heard about the movie some time ago and knew basically

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Variety is reporting that Sean Penn will direct his adaptation of John Krakauer's true story Into The Wild. Emile Hirsch (The Girl Next Door) will star as Christopher McCandless, a young man who, after graduating college in 1992, gave away all of his possessions and went to Alaska and hiked up onto Mt. McKinley to live in the wilderness. His decomposed body was found

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Someone recently told me that they know someone who works for National Lampoon, to which I replied, "That's too bad. Remember when National Lampoon equaled funny?"Hey, remember when the Coen Brothers equaled awesome?Well, it seems that the Coens might be making a return to form with their next project, No Country For Old Men. Adapted from the novel by Cormac McCarthy,

Hey guys, it's Donnie...The long in development project Fanboys may have found it's cast.The project centers on four life long friends and Star Wars fanatics in 1998, before the release of Episode I. When one of the friends is diagnosed with terminal cancer and realizes he probably won't live to see the theatrical release of the new Star Wars film, the four friends embark on a cross country

UPDATE!! Alright, so after those pics surfaced yesterday, rumor has it that Theresa Russell's character, Flint Marko's wife, is actually going to be Felicia Hardy, a.k.a. The Black Cat. If true, that means we'll be seeing Sandman, Venom, Black Cat, AND Hobgoblin, along with Gwen Stacey? Jesus that's alot of new characters. I have a whole lot of faith in Sam Raimi, but this is starting to sound

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Not that I should have to point it out, but the 2006 Academy Award Nominations were announced this morning. What do I think? I think they are surprisingly pretty spot on. I'm ecstatic to see Terrence Howard and "It's Hard Out Here For A Pimp" getting nominations from Hustle & Flow. I'm glad that Clooney got a directing nomination, because he most assuredly deserves it.

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Welcome back to Trailertown!In my prolonged absence a number of really excellent trailers have debuted. There have been really too many to go through them all, but here are the big ones from the past week or so...Silent Hill: Think all video game movies suck? Think again. This trailer is nothing short of badass and scary as hell. Director Christophe Gans (Brotherhood

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Good news for all you 007 fans! Yesterday marked the first day of filming for Casino Royale, the next installment in the long running James Bond franchise.Filming will take place in the UK, Prague, Italy and the Bahamas. Daniel Craig will be taking over as James Bond and, after rewatching Layer Cake for the first time since I saw it in theaters, I'm really extremely

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Right now this is completely and totally 100% a rumor with nothing remotely resembling any kind of confirmation anywhere.Then why am I running it?Because it's awesome, that's why:A remake of Any Which Way But Loose starring The Rock.You heard me. The Rock and a monkey.I'm sure there's a Walking Tall/The Rundown joke to be made there somewhere...

Hey guys, it's Donnie...Well, look's who's back in town?Or, more accurately, looks who's in a new town?Yes, that's right, the Movie Booth has relocated to warmer climates, currently working out of Culver City, CA and loving every minute of it. What can I say? I guess I wanted to be closer to the action.I know we've been gone for a while, but between the holidays and packing everything up for

Hey guys, it's Donnie...I've pretty much run out of ways to express my excitement for Chris Nolan's upcoming film The Prestige. Everytime someone else gets added to the cast I somehow get happier. At this point I might as well just give Nolan a blowjob, but despite my college alma mater, I really don't swing that way. Really.Confirming some rumors from last week, Andy Serkis (a.k.a. Gollum and

Hey guys, it's Donnie...It's a sad day for theater owners.This past Friday, HDNet Films and Magnolia Pictures released Stephen Soderbergh's not quite 90 minute film Bubble in the first major "day-and-date" release. That is to say that the film played on 32 screens at a handful of Landmark Theaters, it ran on the HDNet television channel Friday night, and it'll be released on DVD this Tuesday. (

Hey guys, it's Donnie...In case there was any doubt, we are back in the midst of Award Season once again. The Golden Globes have come and gone and last night the Screen Actor's Guild chose to champion hollow bullshit "importance" in the form of Paul Haggis's Crash. How someone ever chooses crash over Goodnight and Good Luck I'll never understand.Today we got the nominations for one of my

Hey guys, it's Donnie...You know, Fantastic Four was a really painful film for me. I SO wanted greatness out of that movie because that's what the property deserves. One might think that I took some kind of evil glee in writing article after article tearing the film to pieces all throughout it's production and promotion, but it really did hurt me to have to sit here for a few months and slowly

Hey guys, it's Donnie...To all of you who have been checking in here despite the marked lack of content over the past few weeks, my most sincere apologies. Between the holidays, leaving my job and moving out of my apartment, things have been fairly hectic here at The Booth.But fear not! All this is merely in preparation for The Booth to relocate to bright and shiny new offices in Los Angeles!

The following will be a chronicling of all the movies I've seen in 2006. I'm not counting the countless DVDs I'll consume (because why would you count something countless?) but instead restrict myself to the new releases of 2006 that I actually travel to a theater to watch. I'll also include a rating of 1-5 stars.Let the mayhem begin...The Films of 2006The Black Dahlia **Brick ****The Hills Have
