From Variety: "In the chess match to debut the first Snow White project, Relativity has moved to checkmate Universal. Last week, U shrewdly moved 'Snow White and the Huntsman' up to June 1, 2012, leapfrogging it ahead of Relativity's untitled Snow White pic by a month. Then on Tuesday, Ryan Kavanaugh & co. countered by bumping the Tarsem Singh-helmed pic up from June 29 to March 16, 2012, putting it more than two months into the lead. The one-upping between the financing partners would…

From Sunday's NYT Magazine:

"Obviously no one involved with the making of the show wants to come right out and say it, but MTV’s getting into the teen-horror game because of the world-beating success of Stephenie Meyer’s 'Twilight' novels, which are among the most read borderline-unreadable books of the last decade, and the movie franchise they inspired, which has grossed nearly $1 billion to date and forced an entire generation of girls to pledge allegiance to either Team Edward (the…

"More than brief nudity will require at least a PG-13 rating, but such nudity in a PG-13 rated motion picture generally will not be sexually oriented. There may be depictions of violence in a PG-13 movie, but…

Rolling Stone: "Peter Travers has no love for Red Riding Hood...an incredibly stupid Twilight retread and dull in the extreme, so Travers is tossing it in his Scum Bucket."

Variety: "Intermittently enjoyable hokum at best, this mostly risible exercise in fairy-tale revisionism could stoke enough young-femme curiosity to post solid if not 'Twilight'-threatening numbers, its tepid dramatics, clumsy production values and cupboardful of werewolf…

"The King's Speech star Colin Firth is set to become a creepy vampire called Stoker for his next movie, it has emerged. The 50-year-old Oscar winner is to join Nicole Kidman, 43, and Alice In Wonderland star Mia Wasikowska, 21, in the film, which is inspired by Bram Stoker's classic horror novel Dracula. The film has been written by Prison Break star Wentworth Miller and tells the story of a girl called India and her mother who are visited by a mysterious uncle after India’s father…
