Roger Corman. Best producer you never heard of.
A and E Indie Films is releasing a documentary on Roger Corman dubbed "Corman's World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel". Roger Corman, a Stanford Grad, is notorious for shockingly quick, low-budget productions. In the case of some of Corman's films quantity out weighed quality as Corman has been known to produce 8 movies in a single year. Since his first movie production in 1954, "Monster from the Ocean Floor", Roger has been involved in epic films, helping to create many Hollywood careers, namely: Francis Ford Coppola, Jack Nicholson, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Jonathan Demme, Ron Howard, Eli Roth and James Cameron. He was also awarded an Honorary Academy Award for his body of work in 2009. "Corman's World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel" is being brought to life by Alex Stapelton. Release set for 2011.

Hangover Part II. Just as good as the first?
The first Hangover movie was epic. Its success propelled movie careers for everyone involved with the production. Will the second one be as successful? We shall see. However, it does seem that all the correct moves are being made to make this one just as good. In Part II Phil, Stu, Alan and Doug travel to Thailand for Stu's wedding. Cameo's were wisely chosen as Mike Tyson is back and Bill Clinton makes an appearance. There is no telling what we are in store for. Mike Tyson and Bill Clinton cage match? Maybe Tyson plays the piano and Bill is on the Sax? Regardless, the stage is set for a totally amazing plot again! Hangover Part II is set for release in May 2011.
