The unpredictable James Franco writes books, spoofs himself in movies and turns up on soap operas. We never know what he’ll think of doing next until he does it. This time, he’s signed for a two-episode arc on The Mindy Project that will kick off the show’s new season on September 17th & 24th. […]

Oz The Great and Powerful – Pay No Attention To The Hole In The Middle!
Pay no attention to the hole in the middle of Oz the Great and Powerful. While much of the film is admirable, James Franco is too hip, too modern and too in on the joke. While the rest of the cast are playing their (mostly thinly developed characters), Franco is winking at the audience and […]
