Devout comic book aficionados will immediately recognize Kyle Baker’s name from his various high-profile projects over the years, including his take on Plastic Man, “Truth: Red, White and Black,” the story of the African-American man on whom the Super Soldier Serum (the chemical which gave Captain America his powers) was originally tested, and his own creations, such as “Why I Hate Saturn.” Bullz-Eye had the opportunity to chat with Baker about his latest collaboration, which finds him teaming up with the folks at Vector City Racers to compose a comic book which works in connection with their interactive online game,…

I think we can all agree that Chevy Chase’s movie career has been, by anyone’s definition, rather spotty at best. But if you were forced at gunpoint to compile a film festival to honor the man’s best work, there’s no question that one of the best-attended screenings would be the one for “Fletch.” Based on the novel by Gregory McDonald, Chase plays reporter Irwin Maurice Fletcher, who’s taken to being called by the nickname that gives the film its title. Fletch works under the byline of Jane Doe and tends to work undercover stories. As the movie begins, he’s strolling…

The first season of “8 Simple Rules” served as John Ritter’s return to the sitcom, playing a newspaper columnist who works at home and tries to be the best possible husband and father of three kids. It was a remarkably accurate portrayal of the chasms that exist between parents and their children, not to mention between a husband and a wife. Sadly, however, the series’ second season had barely gotten underway – only four episodes had been filmed – when Ritter took ill on the set, was rushed to the hospital, and subsequently died as a result of an aortic…

If you saw “Fanboys,” director Kyle Newman’s love letter to the “Star Wars” franchise, in an actual theater, you can consider yourself very lucky. Although the film exceeded studio expectations and earned a far larger theatrical release than had originally been intended, it still came nowhere near playing in every market in the country…and that’s a shame, because it’s a very funny film which simultaneously pays tribute to the power of friendship and the power of the Force, making it all the more hard to believe that the Weinsteins sat on the damned thing for almost two years. Bullz-Eye had…

Nothing gets the fanboys more geared up to spew abuse than when the idea of a complete reboot begins to circle over the head of their favorite film franchise, not unlike a vulture. “Why would you even consider such a horrible thing?” they cry. “There’s nothing wrong with (INSERT FRANCHISE HERE) that a good screenwriter couldn’t fix!” That fallback position doesn’t work with “Star Trek,” however. The film, “Star Trek: Nemesis,” was written by John Logan, a self-described Trekkie who was also responsible for the scripts for “Gladiator” and “The Aviator,” and yet it still managed to be the worst…

“X-Men Origins: Wolverine” is the kind of motion picture that makes filmmakers loathe the World Wide Web. There’s been nothing but sketchy buzz about this film for months, thereby making 20th Century Fox’s decision to sic the FBI on the perpetrator who leaked an early print of the film to onto the ‘net seem less like an attempt to exact justice and more like a desire to make it seem like they had a product that was actually worth stealing. And, yet, when the time came to release the film, instead of offering up advance screenings to all critics, they…

He’s the man who put the “David” in “Mr. Show with Bob and David,” and, by our statistics, he’s still the only person in the world who’s ever been able to get a laugh with the words “anal rapist.” He’s David Cross, and in addition to his multiple film roles, he’s also appearing as part of the cast of the online series “Pilot Season,” which can be viewed over at MyDamnChannel.com. Bullz-Eye had a chance to talk to Cross about his history with series creator Sam Seder, his own experiences on the pilot front (including the aborted HBO reunion with…

Ah, Andy Dick. Just thinking of him makes you smile, doesn’t it? Well, maybe that’s just me. But, personally, I’ve always thought the guy was a riot, whether he was playing the ever-clueless Matthew Brock on “NewsRadio,” playing himself on his self-titled MTV series (or any number of other shows), or turning up in movies like “Old School” and “Road Trip.” Currently, Andy is all over the World Wide Web, both as part of the ensemble cast of “Pilot Season,” over at MyDamnChannel.com, as well as in his own series, “House Arrest with Andy Dick,” which can be found at…

In the 1970s, it was virtually impossible to go to the movies without finding at least one Elliott Gould film playing in your area. From “M*A*S*H” to “The Long Goodbye,” “Capricorn One” to “California Split,” the man’s name was a staple of movie marquees. These days, he’s still working regularly, both theatrically (the “Ocean’s films) and on television (you may remember him as Ross and Monica’s dad on “Friends”), but the leading roles haven’t been quite as prevalent in recent years, which is why it was so exciting to see him co-headlining 2008’s “The Caller” with Frank Langella. Bullz-Eye had…

You’d be forgiven for knowing Ron Perlman’s name without actually knowing what Ron Perlman himself actually looking like. It’s not that he hasn’t succeeded as an actor in his own right, but to be fair, he has spent a heck of a lot of his career under makeup, given that two of his most famous roles have been Vincent, who put the “beast” in CBS’s “Beauty and the Beast,” and the titular character of the “Hellboy” franchise. Lately, though, Perlman has been making an impression as one of the stars of the critically-acclaimed FX drama, “Sons of Anarchy,” which will…
