The campy, low-budget TV disaster movie about a hurricane that unleashes an aerial shark attack on Los Angeles has proven that a B-movie can still be a big cult winner, especially when social media acts as its marketing machine. "You can't replicate something like this, you can't force-feed it - it just sort of happens," director Anthony C. ...http://news.yahoo.com/tv-film-sharknado-inches-cult-status-midnight-showings-001635587.htmlFri, 02 Aug 2013 20:16:35 -0400Reuterstv-film-sharknado-inches-cult-status-midnight-showings-001635587By Tony Maglio LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - SyFy's original movie "Sharknado" is in select Regal cinemas Friday for a one-night only screening. So far, ticket sales have been a whirlwind - without sharks. "Advance ticket sales are bloody good," Harry Medved, spokesperson for movie ticketing service Fandango, told TheWrap. "It's unprecedented for a TV movie to be re-released in theaters and do this well in limited engagements - but then again, cult movies are more fun to watch with a packed audience yelling their favorite lines back at the big screen. ...http://news.yahoo.com/sharknado-mania-hits-theaters-midnight-screenings-sell-more-231314438.htmlFri, 02 Aug 2013 19:13:14 -0400Reuterssharknado-mania-hits-theaters-midnight-screenings-sell-more-231314438By Jeff Sneider LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Universal Pictures is gearing up for another entry in its blockbuster "Bourne" series, setting Anthony Peckham ("Sherlock Holmes") to write the script for a fifth film in the franchise. Jeremy Renner will reprise his role as Aaron Cross from last year's "The Bourne Legacy," which was directed by original "Bourne" screenwriter Tony Gilroy. Gilroy is not involved with the latest installment, nor is Matt Damon at the moment. While Universal would love for Damon to reprise his signature action role, it'll all depend on who the studio hires to direct. ...http://news.yahoo.com/fifth-bourne-movie-works-jeremy-renner-sherlock-holmes-231047510.htmlFri, 02 Aug 2013 19:10:47 -0400Reutersfifth-bourne-movie-works-jeremy-renner-sherlock-holmes-231047510By Alonso Duralde LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - There's a great vintage "Saturday Night Live" sketch where host Kirk Douglas does a fake ad for the album "Kirk's Greatest Kirks," featuring the actor impersonating Kirk Douglas impersonators (Rich Little, Frank Gorshin, etc.). Doing so requires the actor to repeat his most famous movie lines in the hammiest and most overdone way possible.

"He's a man's man who feels best with his buddies and having fun," '2 Guns' director Baltasar Kormakur teased. "He's sometimes awkward when it comes to women." Kormakur would know. He's worked with the former Calvin Klein model on two movies, and directed a pilot of a TV show that Wahlberg is producing.
