Let me just say, for the record, that I think making a stand alone Magneto movie is a bad idea. And no, adding David Goyer as director did not change my mind about that.

April 12th, 2007 · No Comments
What? She is going to pass on the chance to star on the third mummy film, directed by Rob Cohen (Stealth,xXx, other assorted crap)? What is she thinking?
Honestly now, good for her. Rachel really doesn't need to be involved with this project. I don't begrudge good actors trying to make some fun films with broad […]

Ok, I know people love top ten lists. And I know people love the new Spider-Man movies. But two movies is just not enough to warrant a "T op Ten Spider-Man Movie Moments".
