Batman! Spider-Man! The X-Files!
A few quick reports on movies in various stages of not-out-yet:
* If you just can't wait for the new X-Files movie, the opening scenes are now online at Yahoo! Movies.
* Rolling Stone movie reviewer Peter Travers has an early review of The Dark Knight. He digs it - especially Heath Ledger's performance, which he calls "mad-crazy-brilliant."
"If there's a movement to get him the first posthumous Oscar since Peter Finch won for 1976's Network, sign me up," he says.
* A fourth Spider-Man movie has been scheduled for a 2011 release. Neither leading man-boy Tobey McGuire nor director Sam Raimi have yet signed on for the sequel -- and after the trainwreck that was the last one, I can hardly blame them. Still, I'll probably end up seeing it and feeling dirty afterward. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!
