I love a good independent movie as much as the next girl, but I generally only get to maybe two or three a year, and I live in a neighborhood with at least three indie theaters. But with Sundance coming up, some indie movies are about to get the most press they'll see all year. The lineup for the 2009 Sundance Film Festival is rolling out, and the festival, entering its 25th year, has announced the 64 films that will be entered into competition (of the 118 feature-length films that will premiere there). 3,661 films were submitted to the festival, so if you compare the indie fest to the world of major motion picture releases for a year, you've got to figure at least five of the indies will probably be really good. Being that the festival is Robert Redford's baby, I'll actually take the over on that one.

Johnny Depp is definitely keeping himself more than busy. In addition to all of his upcoming projects and his running a secret production company, legendary producer Richard Zanuck has announced what his next next project will be. After working with Tim Burton on Alice in Wonderland, Collider.com reports that Depp will again team with the director on a film take of the 70's gothic ABC soap opera Dark Shadows.

Oh no they are NOT. Twentieth Century Fox just went and got themselves into the doghouse with me. It's like the equivalent of catching them in the act of replacing your entire wardrobe with new, trendy clothes. Sure, they thought it would be a nice surprise for you, but some of your old clothes fit really well and were one-of-a-kinds and you liked your old clothes, damn it. They were classic. These new ones won't fit right and will be out of style in a year or two and fashion will be ruined for you forever. Fox has announced that they're going to do a remake of Romancing The Stone. They might mean well, but they are totally sleeping on the couch.
