Ultimate fighting? Now that's a late hit.
Hollywood is so behind the curve on cultural trends that most fads are over before the movie biz can figure out how to exploit them. So I shouldn't have been shocked to discover that someone is only now -- after Ultimate Fighting Championship has become a huge ratings champ on Spike TV, made the cover of Sports Illustrated and been mocked by the Onion and "The Daily Show" -- making a film about the wild 'n' woolly sport that has gained a chokehold on the elusive 18-to-34 male demographic.
The picture, called "Redbelt," was shooting in Los Angeles last month...More?
