Could we be getting…Goosebumps?

Goosebumps movie in the works (from ABC News)

Excellent news for today’s kiddies! Goosebumps were wonderful books back in my day and it’s good to see Columbia picking up this project. If only I were 11 years old again…

Memories of the Civic Theatre

Back in the day, when the Scone Civic was up and going, they played this clip at the start of each session. I have since tracked this down online at a site called FilmTech , which lists it as a generic policy trailer used quite widely, notably with a US chain called Cinema West. Sadly, the Civic isn’t being used for movies any more, but at least the owners are planning to give the place a coat of paint (according to ABC Upper Hunter).

There’s only one number one - CANNON!

Remember these “classics”? The Death Wish series? Any film starring Chuck Norris? Even Superman IV: The Quest For Peace? Then this site might be up your alley.

A British-based site is undertaking a massive cataloguing effort to preserve the vast range of Cannon Films’s work and how the company prospered and took a massive fall. There’s even a YouTube channel with the best of the studios’s trailers and promotional material. Go and check it out!
