If Hancock does succeed, it'll join a select few who have managed to nail a notoriously difficult genre. Here are a handful of films that cracked the superhero comedy code.
AMC announced today that acclaimed film actors Jim Caviezel (The Passion of the Christ, The Thin Red Line) and Ian McKellen (Lord of the Rings, The Da Vinci Code) have signed on for the network's reinterpretation of the highly influential 1960s cult classic, The Prisoner.
So summer is upon us and blockbuster season is well and truly here. Wanted has proven to have the goods though it's not really SciFi enough to include here, Wall-E has finally arrived, and all signs are that Hancock will be the summer's first outright flop - a big budget spectacle that absolutely nobody is talking about, opening to mediocre reviews against two vastly superior films. Sorry, Will, you've got another Wild Wild West on your hands. If Hancock ends up bleeding cash will studio suits re-think director Peter Berg's big budget adaptation of Dune? Time will tell ...

Like all of the movies you mentioned ...are availible on Netflix.
Love the new video! And I did check on Netflix - none of these are available to rent. You can view the movie description, but you can't add the movie to your queue. Hopefully Netflix will get enough requests to add these movies to their collection!
My goodness. They certainly don't have those titles on ChristianCinema.com. I'll just have to settle for 'Angel Wars' or 'Left Behind II.'
I'm still waiting for Battlestar Galactica season 3. Meanwhile, I put all these quality art films in my queue, then keep moving them down to watch old Dr. Who.
This was hilarious.
Awesome job, as usual Kev. Gargoyles was one of those films from my youth in which I only saw the first 20 minutes of. It scared me so much I had to stop. So, later in life, still remembering how much it scared me, I had to see the movie in its entirety. I did, and I got it from Netflix. What gives? By the way, it wasn't as scary as I remembered, but Bernie Casey ruled as the main gargoyle!
