The Projection Booth 3/24/09

The Projection Booth is nice and steamy today. Someone ought to crack a window. Perhaps it is the hefty squirt of Sriracha I've added to my microwaveable chicken burger? Possibly. Either way, here's what's happening out there in the world.

• Details about the third Riddick movie are starting to make their way around the Intertubes. IESB is leading the attack with what they say is solid inside info.
• The poster for the forthcoming CG Gatchaman feature (which you may remember as the cartoon Battle of the Planets or G-Force) popped up at TwitchFilm.
• MTV Movies expands on a glorious feature posted by Icons of Fright exposing what you always dreaded: that not all subtitled DVD releases are made equal. Looks like the American version of Let The Right One In is dumbed down considerably. Personally, I was annoyed that the default of the disc was an English dub. That just seems rude.
• SlashFilm slummed it through message boards to discover a Roberto Orci post discussing a "logical" candidate for The Fallen.
• Hollywood.com has a nice, gossipy piece about age gaps in well known movie sex scenes. Pics, too!
• The often funny Frosty at Collider grabbed the always funny Judd Apatow at the Monsters vs. Aliens junket and got him to talk about Funny People. Apatow doesn't say it, but he basically says that Get Him To The Greek is a "side-quel."
• Russ Fischer at CHUD picks Cruising, for some reason, as today's streamable "Watch This Now" movie.
• Bong Joon-ho, director of The Host and one third of the omnibus film Tokyo! chats with Movieweb.
• A 1992 Guy Maddin film called Careful is being released on DVD. TimeOutNY invited the cult Canadian director to review his own work.
