Who cares if the story's been told 8 million times? It hasn't been told in 3-D!

Below is the poster for "The Three Musketeers" in 3-D, set for release April 15, 2011. The good news: The cast looks solid, with Milla Jovovich and Christoph Waltz ("Inglourious Basterds") set to star, and the film will be shot in 3-D (not converted), which should bode well visually. The director is Paul W.S. Anderson, who made the "Resident Evil" movies. Anderson describes his interest in the story here.

Per Coming Soon: Ray Stevenson, Luke Evans and Matthew Macfadyen are attached to star as Musketeers Porthos, Aramis and Athos, respectively. The film's villains include Oscar winner Christoph Waltz as Cardinal Richelieu and Mads Mikkelsen as Rochefort. Anderson's wife, Milla Jovovich, has been cast as Athos' old flame Milady de Winter.

I still don't think "Due Date" looks very funny, but I'm remaining optimistic for the following reasons: 1) It was directed by Todd Philips, who made "The Hangover," 2) I'll watch Downey Jr. in anything, and 3) Rumor has it the best moments are yet to come, i.e. Warner Bros. hasn't ruined the movie by showing us all the funny parts already. "Due Date" is due in theaters Nov. 5, 2010.

In typical Conan O'Brien fashion -- no flashy press conference, extremely silly delivery  -- O'Brien announced the name of his new show on TBS starting this fall. I think he's going to be completely unhinged on cable, and it's going to be great.

Is it worth $10 No

“Machete” is the first movie I’ve seen in which someone is decapitated, then the severed head is split in two by a machete before it hits the ground. 

You must admit, that’s pretty original. And disgusting. Either way, after reading the first sentence you likely immediately know if you wanted to see this movie. And if you do, it’s my responsibility to tell you the action comes in spurts, and there’s a serious rather than playful tone that takes away from the sophomoric fun. More...

Is it worth $10? Yes

There’s a minimalist, quiet intensity to “The American,” a mood and atmosphere created by director Anton Corbijn to directly reflect the mental state of the main character, Jack. As played by George Clooney, Jack is a tormented figure who longs to feel a human connection again after years of work as an assassin, but finds trouble escaping his demons in this superb drama.

With summer behind us, it’s time to look back at the mediocrity (“Salt”), ineptitude (“Dinner for Schmucks”) and brilliance (“Inception”) that left us flustered and inspired over the past four months.

Most shameful sequel: “Iron Man 2”

Downey’s charm wasn’t as fresh as it was in the original, and neither was the story or action. And was it me, or did every scene feel like a setup for “The Avengers” movie in 2012?

You were once a star and now your career sucks: M. Night Shyamalan

Hey Night, here’s a thought: Make a movie about a director whose career is hijacked by a series of terrible ideas that are poorly executed, and end it with him leaving Hollywood for good.
