EXCLUSIVE: Max Allan Collins Talks MIKE HAMMER Movie And ROAD TO PERDITION Sequel

Posted: 24 May 2012 11:30 AM PDT

Mike Hammer is a private detective created by American author Mickey Spillane and since his creation in 1947, he has been featured in several books, comics and various radio, television and film adaptations. Following the death of Spillane in 2006, Max Allan Collins was tasked with completing the unfinished Hammer novels (the latest being Lady, Go Die!). I asked him about the chances of a big screen adaptation featuring the character, and he revealed that we should expect to see Hammer on the big screen very soon. "There is serious talk going on right now. I would be involved as a consulting producer, most likely. I'd love to write the screenplay, but my credits in that area are pretty much all in the indie field and wouldn't make the grade for a big Hollywood production. There's a possibility it will be based on one of the

Pacific Rim Official Synopsis Revealed!

A taxi covered in Kaiju debris on the set of Pacific Rim

With so many awesome summer movies headed our way in 2012, it's been a little hard to look to the future without getting lost in the shuffle. Guillermo del Toro has played it smart in keeping mostly quiet on his next project Pacific Rim. Principle photography has wrapped so that Charlie Day can get back to Paddy's Pub and Charlie Hunnam can jump back on his motorcycle, yet we've barely seen any spy pics, or heard any news from the principle cast about their experience.

Today, we get our first real sign that the movie actually exists. The official synopsis. If you had any doubts that this was nothing more than a giant monster movie ode to Godzilla and his ilk, you can squelch that noise right now.

"From acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro comes Warner Bros. Pictures' and Legendary Pictures' epic sci-fi action adventure Pacific Rim.

When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes-a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)-who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Oscar&#174 nominee Guillermo del Toro is directing Pacific Rim from a script by Travis Beacham. Thomas Tull, Jon Jashni and Mary Parent are producing, with Callum Greene serving as executive producer."

Expect the movie to be presented in 3D, with the first footage screening at Comic-Con 2012.

Pacific Rim comes to theaters July 12th, 2013 and stars Idris Elba, Charlie Hunnam, Ron Perlman, Charlie Day, Clifton Collins Jr., Max Martini, Robert Maillet, Rinko Kikuchi. The film is directed by Guillermo del Toro.


Bob Dylan's Most Emo Lyrics

Emo Bob DylanFrazer Harrison, Getty Images

Bob Dylan is one of America's musical fountainheads. He distilled folk, blues, rock, jazz and more into a singular style, one that would be reduced, reused and recycled throughout the years by hundreds of artists including himself. One thing that Dylan is revered for above all else is his contribution to the lyrical canon -- many call him a poet (and many refuse to acknowledge him as anything else other than a good lyricist). So, we at Spinner decided to delve into another lyrically driven genre not often associated with Dylan -- emo.

Today, in honor of his 71st birthday, and in honor of this ridiculous picture of him that we found yesterday, we pay tribute to Bob Dylan's most emo lyrics. Some have been taken out of context for comedic purpose and brevity.

Lou Reed Has New Genus of Velvet Spider Named After Him

Posted: 24 May 2012 01:00 PM PDT

Although he hasn't had a constellation named after him, Lou Reed has joined the late Frank Zappa and Neil Young as rock stars who have had newly discovered spiders named after them.

According to Sci-News.com, a new genus of velvet spider has been recently named Loureedia "in recognition of the fact that this velvet spider lives underground." Obviously in reference to Reed's time in the Velvet Underground, Loureedia was chosen by an international group of biologists and representatives of institutions from the U.S., Hungary, Denmark and Iran among other countries.

The velvet spider -- which is described has having a "dark and shiny" appearance -- is known to be rarely encountered, much like Reed's at times testy encounters with music journalists over the years. The creature is also known to live in Africa, Asia and Europe with Brazil also home to a form of the species.
