Friday, January 16, 2009 at 4:44AM Week in Review: 'Watchmen' Settlement, Eastwood, 'Iron Man' Villainy
The biggest movie news of the week just happened: Fox and Warner Bros. have reached an agreement whereby we still get to see Watchmen, and both studios will make hundreds of millions of dollars of our interest, some of which has been spurred by the existence of this lawsuit. No losers here.
Beyond that, however, there were several other newsworthy items as well as some stuff we just felt like getting off our chest:
