We’re talking Multiple Man noir, Mary Jane’s domestic trauma, Short Round: Legacy of the Fedora, and Steve Canyon soaring back into relevance! And just when you think we’re grounded, we go full Mojo—literally—with our dream casting for the bloated tyrant of the Mojoverse (Danny DeVito? Jim Belushi?
