I mean, since they were created as trailers, we've already seen all of the highlights.SamuraiFroghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18313259493587442589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27176467.post-88910185065866239852007-05-09T11:56:00.000-04:002007-05-09T11:56:00.000-04:00was grindhouse even a success the first time?was grindhouse even a success the first time?Mayrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14908716319421159843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27176467.post-18506114854058224312007-05-09T08:27:00.000-04:002007-05-09T08:27:00.000-04:00Personally, I'm psyched about Edgar Wright's Ant-M...Personally, I'm psyched about Edgar Wright's Ant-Man film scheduled for 2008. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he'll sign Simon Pegg in the lead. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27176467.post-69491325851672078172007-05-09T02:00:00.000-04:002007-05-09T02:00:00.000-04:00Kevin Smith told a tale in his most recent Q and A...Kevin Smith told a tale in his most recent Q and A about how even with his marginal bombs, his movies eventually make a profit(especially because of the DVDs), so that's how he keeps making movies.
