New Heavy Metal movie has heavy hitters on board

Review: Dr. Horrible

From the moment Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog hit the intardwebz, fans of musical comedies, with a superhero hook have been in seventh heaven. While there have been a couple of attempts to tell a Dr. Horrible origin story, the official take on the villain’s past can only be found in the pages of Dr. Horrible #1 from Dark Horse Comics.

Review: Nola #1

Scorned and left for dead by the man she thought she loved, Nola Thomas returns to the flooded city of New Orleans a different woman than she was prior to the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina. What sequence of events could change a beautiful woman looking for love to a scarred woman looking for revenge?

New Heavy Metal movie has heavy hitters on board

By: Stephen Schleicher | June 8th, 2009

Film School Rejects has a tasty bit of information regarding a new Heavy Metal movie; James Cameron, Zack Snyder, Gore Verbinski, and David Fincher have all signed on to direct segments. If this is news is solid and true, then count me impressed. In addition to this this, Mark Osborne and Jack Black will also direct a comedy segment for the film, with two more directors to be announced later.

Either this is going to be one long ass movie, or the segments are going to be incredibly short. I just hope everyone takes the spirit of the comic magazine and the first movie and brings all the R-rated goodness to the silver screen.

I feel the same. The first movie was so awesome and different at the time. I hope that spirit continues.
