It's not as sequel-tastic as last year, but...IT'S SUMMER EVENT MOVIE TIME!!! Break out the popcorn, nachos and highly fattening cheese dogs!

I guess only seeing 3 movies derived directly from old TV shows means they haven't run completely out of ideas in Hollywired...

I wonder if DeathRace 3000 is a remake of the Carradine movie, Deathrace 2000?

Five owe their birth to the comics.

Was it worth it, ShadowDancer? That's one of the shows we were thinking about.

It turned out better than I thought it would be....you know how alot of times they "pump up" a movie made from a comic or something like that and then they end up bombing...but IRONMAN was better than I thought it would be.

Everyone, GO SEE IRON MAN! You will NOT be disappointed!

And STAY UNTIL THE END OF THE CREDITS! Major future plot spoiler!

I wonder if DeathRace 3000 is a remake of the Carradine movie, Deathrace 2000?
Good question. It also begs the question of why it's so far into September for a release if it's any good. Virtually makes it a Fall Movie release.
