A Girl Named Kara?
Peter David brings his Supergirl face to face with her legendary predecessor...or does he?

Saturday, September 28, 2002

Peter David's SUPERGIRL has been for some time one of the great undiscovered pleasures of the superhero genre. With solid scripting, superb character development, excellent art and a healthy helping of humor, the series has been one of the most consistently entertaining reads in comics. Unfortunately, Linda's exploits just haven't been drawing the numbers of a SUPERMAN or an X-MEN. - [Full Story]

Hannibal in RED DRAGON 
Behind the Scenes
Dragon Slayers
Director Brett Ratner and company capture a darker, angrier Hannibal Lecter in RED DRAGON

Wednesday, September 25, 2002

When writer-director-producer Michael Mann’s MANHUNTER came out in 1986, it was regarded as a cool little thriller notable as much as anything for its ’80s pop soundtrack and future C.S.I. star William Petersen’s intense performance as a burned-out former FBI agent on the trail of a cunning serial killer. Mann’s effective, if not particularly faithful, adaptation of Thomas Harris’ 1981 novel RED DRAGON was also the second solid film based on Harris’ work, following John Frankenheimer’s well-received 1977 screen version of the author’s terrorist suspenser BLACK SUNDAY.

Oh yeah, MANHUNTER also had an intriguing minor character played memorably by British actor Brian Cox: an imprisoned second psychopath by the name of Hannibal Lecter. (Actually, he was spelling it “Lecktor” back then.)

Sixteen years later, expectations for a new film version of RED DRAGON bearing Harris’ original title are vastly different than they were for Mann’s take on the same material. As anybody with the slightest interest in the genre knows, director Jonathan Demme’s gripping 1991 adaptation of Harris’ sequel, THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, went on to become one of those rare films that achieves both blockbuster commercial success and top industry accolades, sweeping the Academy Awards with Oscars for best picture, Demme’s direction and Ted Tally’s screenplay adaptation, as well as best actor and actress honors respectively for Anthony Hopkins’ searing take on Lecter and Jodie Foster’s unforgettable work as FBI newbie heroine Clarice Starling.

Poll
What do you think of Joss Whedon`s FIREFLY so far?

Love it! It's that same old Whedon magic, but with a sci-fi twist.
So far, so good. But let's give it a few more episodes before we pray at the Whedon altar again.
Unimpressed. Space cowboys? Give me a break.
It doesn't matter what we think, 'cause Fox will wind up cancelling it anyway.
Can't they find a way for Buffy to join the cast?
