Long before she was a movie star, a teenage Nicole Kidman appeared in the early-’80s action comedy “BMX Bandits,” a rowdy Australian kidpic full of bicycle stunts and Scooby-Doo crime-stopping shenanigans. It’s too early to say whether any of the adorable young leads in “Riddle of Fire” will go on to have successful acting careers. Still, it’s amusing to think that two decades into the 21st century, writer-director Weston Razooli has taken inspiration from such questionable classics, along with vintage live-action Disney fare — like “Escape from Witch Mountain” and the Herbie movies, which the studio sold in puffy white VHS cases — for his own retro-spirited debut.
Spun from equal parts imagination and nostalgia, “Riddle of Fire” comes as close as any film since “Spy Kids” or “Kisses” to mirroring the kind of cinematic adventures we made in our heads as kids. Razooli remembers how it feels to...

One of my favorite movies as a kid was the 1988 movie The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking. My mom recorded the movie onto a VHS tape for me, and I watched it repeatedly and imagined marching through the town raiding an ice cream stand with my friends and singing the theme song incessantly. So I was pretty excited to hear that we are getting a new Pippi Longstocking movie for the next generation.
Studio Canal and producer David Heyman, known for his work on the Harry Potter films, the Paddington films, and Gravity, are on board to make the film based on the children’s book by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren.

Studiocanal and David Heyman are working on a new Pippi Longstocking movie.
Paddington producer David Heyman is once again teaming up with Studiocanal, this time to work on a new Pippi Longstocking feature film, according to Deadline. They're partnering with the Astrid Lindgren Company on the project, which will see the flame-haired girl bounce back into cinemas for a brand-new adventure.
Astrid Lindren wrote the original Pippi Longstocking books in the 1940s, and if you're of a certain age, you may remember that the last notable Pippi big screen offering, The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking, arrived all the way back in 1988. The film was directed by Ken Annakin (The Longest Day) and fared poorly with critics and audiences alike, bombing at the box office when it was released.

Paddington duo Studiocanal and David Heyman are teaming with the Astrid Lindgren Company to develop a movie based on the classic Pippi Longstocking story. Jeffrey Clifford and Rosie Alison will also produce for Heyday.
Red-haired Longstocking is the main character in the eponymous series of children’s books by celebrated Swedish author Lindgren. She originated from bedside stories told to her daughter Karin about an anything-but-pious freckled little girl with boundless energy, strength and bravery.
The first three chapter books were published from 1945 to 1948, followed by three short stories and a number of picture book adaptations. They have been translated into 77 languages with more than 65 million copies sold world-wide.
There have been a number of film and TV series adaptations of the stories over the years, including Columbia Pictures’ 1988 movie The New Adventures Of Pippi Longstocking.

Oh, dear. Sex tape stories are a dime a dozen nowadays but they generally don't include the star of a beloved childhood movie.
TMZ reports that Tami Erin, who starred as the title character in "The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking" 25 years ago (25 years?!), is the star of a hardcore sex tape being shopped around Hollywood.

The site says they've seen the tape, which appears to be a recently-made film and features Erin in several different sexual positions, though the man she is with is unidentified.
There is no word as to exactly why this sex tape is being shopped around -- did Erin make it on purpose for this? Did she make a sex tape with a trusted partner and now it has gotten out? Is she dressed as a cannibal princess? We do not yet know.
