Lake Placid 3? Ahhh, F%$k!!


Lake Placid fucking 3?? I didn't even know there was a 2. But apparently there was. I know cause I looked it up on IMDB. It starred Bo Duke. So with all the critical acclaim that work of staggering cinematic genius brought, the producers decided to give film conniseurs what they always dreamed of... Lake Placid 3. It's filming in Bulgaria now and Bo Duke didn't even want to come back. I could list the actors in it but you've never heard of them unless you're related to them, so I'm going to skip it. I recently rewatched the orginal Lake Placid on HDnet Movies, and it didn't hold up well. If you want to watch a good killer croc movie, watch Rogue. It's the film where Hollywood discovered Sam Worthington. And it's a good popcorn muncher. If you're a cutter but you're out of sharp objects, have no fear, Lake Placid 3 will be out soon.

No News But AutoTune

Ok, I'm doing everything I can here to bring you all the fresh news items that are worth a damn. If you've noticed the lack of new articles lately, it's because there haven't been very many. So looks like I'm gonna have to revert to reviewing old horror movies for you guys. While I'm watching some old favorites, here's the AutoTune News...

The King Of Pop RIP

It's a dark day. At the age of 50, Michael Jackson, the undisputed king of pop, has died.

He was rushed to UCLA Medical Center earlier in the day. It has been reported that he suffered cardiac arrest.

Through his amazing career, Jackson has become one of the most popular and recognizable entertainers in the world. A man of his fame is impossible to eulogize. Though the later half of his life was colored by personal scandal, he will be loved and missed by the world.

The motherfucker did Thriller.

RIP Michael Jackson.

The Watchmen Director's Cut In Theaters

Lucky fans in Dallas, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and New York will get another, week long, theatrical run of The Watchmen.

On July 17th Zach Snyder's 25 minute longer running cut of The Watchmen movie will be released in those 4 cities. Yea, I was hoping for a longer version of that movie too.

The release comes a week before Comic-Con. The DVD and Blu-Ray release on July 21st.

Owners of the Blu-Ray and a player with online content will be able to, on July 25th, watch a BD Live screening of The Watchmen. They will be able to watch the movie and the Comic-Con discussion simultaneously.

Episode X

Episode 10 of The Nothing Files is live!

In this time out, Nick and Thom point their microscope at Fanboys. Also, they start out much more drunk than usually. Hilarity ensues.

The boys talk Star Wars and go off topic a little more than usual, but it's still the awesomeness that you've come to expect from your favorite web duo.

So go onto iTunes and hit subscribe. It's too hot to leave the house, stay in and listen to The Nothing Files.

Character Posters for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland


The character posters for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland are starting to come out and they look awesome. I've always loved Burton's dark visual style and can't wait for his take on this classic. If these pictures are any indication, I'm gonna love this one.

Nick Takes on Transformers 2

Ok, it's been a couple of days since I've seen the film. I've given you some time to see it or not, and I've thought it over. It's time for my review of the film. If you haven't seen it yet, Optimus Prime dies. This is going to be spoiler heavy.

So we went to Shia LaBeouf and His Wacky Giant Robot Adventures Part 2 at the 12:01 Tuesday showing. I will say this for the film, the theater that we went to had three different screenings of the film that night and all were sold out. Also, I call the film Shia LaBeouf and His Wacky Giant Robot Adventures Part 2, because like the first one, it's a bait and switch. They lure you in with a promise of a Transformers movie, but then it ends up being Sam Witwicky and his hot girlfriend, with Transformers as a side note.

Ok, this movie is huge. Sam is going to college and Megan Fox can't come with him because her dad is out of prison and she has to help run his custom bike shop or some shit. So Sam goes and his parents do some wacky fucking shit on campus. Honestly one of my favorite parts of this film was Sam's banter with both of his parents. Sure, his mom being high on pot brownies was a little strange in a movie that a lot of kids will see, but over all it was pretty funny. That's why I don't have kids. So I won't have to explain to them what pot brownies are after a movie.

So, while at college, Sam meets this new chick. Here's where the movie really starts to suck. This girl ends up being a Decepticon. Really? She looks all normal. Then she turns into a robot. WTFUCK? If Decepticons could look like people, don't you think more would. I mean, that would make it way easier for them to figure out our plans and shit. And a Transformer turns into a human? Or at least looks like a human? FUCK! They even make this thing about how Iornhide or one of them can tell that a Decepticon is nearby because he can smell them, but this robo-bitch actually rides in Bumblebee. He doesn't seem to notice anything strange. I hated that part of the film...

While all this is going on, you find out all of the Autobots, without Bumblebee, have joined forces with a secret branch of the US Government. They hunt down and destroy Decepticons around the world. While this is going on Decepticon Soundwave hooks into to some govt. satalite and starts intercepting messages. This is how the Decepticons find and resuscitate Megatron. Megatron Flies back to Cybertron to meet with The Fallen. Evidently he's Megatron's master. They talk about some thing buried on Earth that will turn our sun into Energon, and they're both going back to switch it on.

Ok, so then this whole plot goes on about how Transformers had been on the Earth a shit load of time ago and built the pyramids and such. Not really that original of an idea, but it lets them blow up a pyramid later, so I guess it works. The Decepticons are looking for Sam because he's the main character and somehow has gotten a bunch of Transformers knowledge in his brain because he touched a piece of the Cube of Life or whatever the fuck it was from the last movie. Remember how he held the whole fucking cube last movie? With no side effects to him? Well, in this one, he touches a shard of it, and gets a whole bunch of shit in his head, just like his crazy great grandpa did when he saw Megatron. Nice.

While defending Sam, in the coolest fight scene in the movie, Optimus Prime gets dead. Way to go Sam. It's your fault. So now The Fallen is looking for the Earth Sun Destructo Beam and the Autobots have no leader and still have to deal with Sam. I feel bad for them.

Eventually The Fallen and everyone else finds this Sun Killer Machine in a pyramid and Sam brings Optimus back to life. Not before he almost dies and goes to a Transformer heaven, where fallen Primes tell him how awesome he is and that they totally want to hang out after he saves Optimus. It's fucked up. Why would a human go to Transformer heaven? Yep. I don't know either.

You see, only a Prime can kill The Fallen. Not really sure why, other than that he was a prime. That's why they need Optimus back so much. But in the first movie, didn't Megatron pretty much kick the crap out of Optimus? But now, he's a prime and the only one who can stop a prime is a prime. Megatron is not a prime. None of this computes.

Optimus does come back and kick every ones ass. End of movie.

Now a lot of other stuff happens too, but come on. I'm not writing the book form of the film. But I can't leave out some of the most awful shit that I didn't bring up. Like how about Devastator's balls. Yep. You remember that big, awesome looking Decepticon from the trailers? The one that transforms from like 5 or 6 different construction machines into one huge awesome robot with a grinder/sucking mouth? How cool did that guy look? I know right. Well, guess what? He's got fucking testicles. Why? Why the fuck not. He's got a pair of wrecking balls hanging down between his legs. One character even refers to them as his testicles. Seriously, Michael Bay? Seriously?


Then there are Mudflap and Skids. Two Autobots that start out as this weird ice cream truck and then become some new kind of Chevy Mini's. They are, what can only be described as stereotypical urban kind of gang bangers. They talk kind of street, swear a lot , and are proud to be ignorant. They are a melange of racism. Great work Michael Bay. They both have faces like monkeys and one has a huge gold tooth. Fuck. Really? They are just weird.

Like I said at the start. The movie is huge. There are barely 5 minutes that go by without some epic battle or something blowing up. Most of it is actually pretty cool to watch. However the movie is about 45 minutes too long. You'll know what I mean when you see it. It's a cool concept, but man I don't know. I know Thom really liked it, and I didn't mind it. But I didn't love it. All these movies keep coming out that are huge and cool looking, I'm talking to you Wolverine, but when you're done with them, you don't really feel like anything. They looked cool and that was about it. Maybe that's the way things are trending these days. And if they are, I'll keep writing tepid reviews for movies that will make more than most nations in a year.

Michael Bay. Motherfucker.

Rooney Mara In Twice the Nightmare

As I'm sure you may be aware, Rooney Mara is our new Nancy Thompson in Platinum Dunes A Nightmare on Elm Street remake. But what you might not be aware is that Mara has recently reveled that she signed on for not one, but two movies as Nancy.

Now, of course, if the Nightmare reboot bombs at the box office, there will be no reprisal of roles. But if it does as well as the Friday the 13th remake did, well, they're already working on a sequel to that one, than you could expect Freddy vs Nancy again.

The Haunted World of El Superbeasto

If you've got a great memory, quite awhile ago, you may recall me talking about a Rob Zombie project called The Haunted World of El Superbeasto.

It's an animated comedy by Zombie based on one of his many comic series. Superbeasto was next in line in Zombies coming soon list, right by T Rex, but, like everything else, was put on hold for Halloween 2. Well, this September 22nd, it's finally coming out.

El Superbeasto will feature voice work from Sheri Moon Zombie, Rosario Dawson, Tom Papa, Paul Giamatti, Prian Posehn, Sid Haig, BIll Moseley, Tom Kenny, Geoffrey Lewis and Danny Trejo. It sounds pretty hip.

Finally, a Rob Zombie project I can look forward to again.

Halloween 2 Official Poster

Well, here it is. The official poster for Zombies Halloween 2. Coming our way in August.

Looks like they dropped the tagline "The Devil Walks Among Us." Too bad. I though that was pretty cool.

Yea, not even this poster has me very excited for this film. Don't get me wrong. I'll be there opening night. It's not like I'm not going to see it, I just don't think it's gonna be any good. After all the hype and everything I've read and reported on to this point, very little about this film has my blood up. But it's still a horror film, and ergo, I will watch it.

Also, don't expect this to be by far the last bit of promo for this one before it drops. If Zombies promotional efforts for this one are any indication, we're going to be seeing a lot more of Michael before the 28th of August.

Arkham Movie

Man, looks like DC has a new Arkham Asylum movie in the works. It's an animated film and from the trailer below, it looks amazing. I'm super happy with the quality of animated films that DC is putting out. I can't wait for this thing...
Edit...Turns out this thing is actually a fan film, which is amazing. DC, please hire this motherfucker immediately. I want this movie.

Freddy Vs Jason Vs Ash 2

Freddy Vs Jason Vs Ash 2 is coming soon to a comic shop near you! On the left you see the art from Arthur Suydam (Marvel Zombies) that will be the first cover. Jeff Katz and James Kuhoric penned the new six part story and Jason Craig will return to illustrate it. The first issue will hit stands on June 24th. Here's the official synopsis;

Beneath the bloody waters of Crystal Lake, an immortal evil wakes and begins anew the cycle of grueling violence. Six months after the events of FREDDY VS. JASON VS.

But Ash Williams has checked his monster-hunting past at the door. A Chosen One no more, he thinks that a life of domestic bliss and retail tending is his true calling ­ until the ghosts of the past show up to punch his clock again.

Yep. I can't wait.

True Blood Season 2

Sunday June 14th marks the return of True Blood to HBO. This will be the second season of True Blood, and after having just finished the first on DVD I can't wait. The show takes place in a reality where doctors have made a blood analogue called Tru Blood and after doing so, vampires choose to allow there presence to be known to the world. It's set in Bon Temps, Louisiana and follows Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) and her friends and family. Sookie can hear peoples thoughts, and her boss is a shapeshifter. They've also hinted that werewolves might be real. I know it sounds kind of weird, but the show is fucking awesome.

To get ready for the shows second season premiere, HBO has made 3 viral clip. Here are all three...

Episode 10 Incoming

Evidently we recorded a new episode last night! Episode X. I say evidently because even I have no idea what it was about. Yea, I was there. I'm pretty sure Thom was too, and Jon may have been around...

Normally I put a bunch of time into coming up with a teaser image about the episode, but I'm just too tired and hungover to do it. I figured you'd rather see the hot stormtrooper girl anyway.

Now while it would have been awesome to do our first all Star Wars episode, don't let the picture fool you. And no, sadly it's also not about hot girls that are into Star Wars. Well, we do talk a lot about one hot girl in particular... In our tenth episode we deal with one aspect of a Star Wars offshoot. It was meant to be awesome. And though I remember little of it, I'm sure it will be.

Now I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, "Oh wow. You recorded a new episode. Fuck you. It takes you guys like 5 years to get them out after recording them."

Well, all I have to say to that is Fuck You! We have a whole new way of recording where the master copy is now in my hands. As soon as I figure out what I'm doing with the software, I'll have that fucker up in a day or so. So eat it, haters! Keep you're eye out. The Nothing Files Podcast is getting drunker and faster than ever!

Snatch Wars

Well, it's Monday. Here's a great movie mash-up between Star Wars and Snatch to get your week started right.

Battlestar Galactica The Plan

During a recent interview, Adama himself, Edward James Olmos, talks a bit about the new made for TV Battlestar Galactica movie.

"I gotta tell you, not to give anything away, it is exactly what you think it is. You see the complete opposite of the first 281 days of what we went through ... seen through the eyes of the Cylons, and it is breathtaking. It's fantastic. It's not fun, but I will say that you will sit there [gasping]... The Plan is exactly that. It was how they planned to do what they did and what happened. It was monumental. All I can tell you is it's an extraordinary look at the Cylons, how they masterminded what they did.

I couldn't have imagined this kind of a situation happening at the end of a show, where you would actually start at the beginning. That's a masterful piece of understanding, Ron [Moore]. Genius. Because after you see The Plan, you'll want to go back and view the whole series again."

Ok, that sounds pretty awesome. A retelling of the events from the Cylons perspective. Yea, I can get behind that. From what I can dig up it looks like Olmos directed it too. Hope that was a good move. All I can find that he directed was four Battlestar Galactica episodes, a Miami Vice episode, American Me, Jack and Marilyn and Walkout. Oh, well, I'll check it out this November when it's supposed to drop anyway.

The Final Destination 3D Trailer

Ok, this looks pretty cool. You know the Final Destination formula. Some jackass has a vision of him and his buddies dying. He forces them to exit the death scenario and they think he's crazy. Then what he saw happens and everyone goes "Holy Shit!" and freaks out. Then death comes ripping for the assholes that circumvented its plan. The kid keeps having visions of how people are gonna die and tries everything he can to stop death. While these movies haven't always been great, what's awesome about them are the creative ways they come up with to kill off the survivor kids. Lot's of big, Rube Goldberg deaths. Well, the newest installment is in 3D. Awesome. Here's the trailer for it.

The World Is Less Cool

Marshal Artist, actor and overall badass David Carradine was found dead today in Bangkok, reportedly from hanging himself.

As you all know Carradine was most famous for his 70's television show Kung Fu and playing Bill in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill.

As I'm sure you notice, high profile people die all the time, and we don't report much of that on here. I just think Carradine was bad as hell and the world is a much less awesome place without him.

I'm calling today national David Carradine day. Even if you don't know martial arts, all you have to do is go around and act like you do and beat the hell out of stuff. Now I'm not condoning person on person violence, don't put that on me, I'm just saying, be a tough ass today. RIP David Carradine.

The Vampire Diarys


Yep. Fucking Twilight. Everywhere you turn there's some new Vampire thing popping up. Remember back in my Twilight review, I said that hopefully there would be some pretty cool Vampire stuff that happens because of that movie? Well, there really hasn't been yet. Sure, True Blood is great, but that's not overly Twilight. I'm pretty sure without Twilight, True Blood would still exist.

Well, here's a show that goes full Twilight. The CW wants a vampire show. Sure, you're thinking well, they had Angel? Why the fuck did they cancel it if they wanted a vampire show? Well, kids, that was years ago. Pre-Twilight as it were, and the CW thought that the awesomeness of Angel made the rest of their lineup look even worse. At least that's how I remember it happening. So now, Angel-less the CW has picked up The Vampire Diaries. It's about two vampire brothers who both want to control the same town and are both obsessed with the same girl... Super. Well, there are three clips on the web for it, and damn it if I don't have all three here for you. So turn off your brain and get in Twilight mode. Time for some tweening and some creatures that probably aren't Brahm Stoker's vampires...


Captain Clegg and the Night Creatures

Rob Zombie, you may be derailing the Halloween franchise, but damn it, you won't stop with one of the most pervasive promotion machines I've ever seen. Here we have a music video for Captian Clegg and the Night Creatures, who if I recall are supposed to be playing Haddonfield's Halloween Bash. Zombie even reports that they are in the finishing process of a full length Capt. Clegg CD. Man, I hate to say it, but that's pretty above and beyond. Making a CD for a fictions band for your movie... So here's more from the mind of Rob Zombie...

Ashes To Ashes

While messing around on the internets I found this Batman fan film. It's super dark and filmed in a very Frank Miller style. It's also in French. I'm not sure that I can tell you what goes on in it. It's really not for kids at all and pretty fucked up. But it's totally worth seeing once, so here you go. Batman: Ashes to Ashes...

Anthony Stewart Head Wants Ripper

In a recent interview with scifiwire.com Anthony Stewart Head talks Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

If you remember, since 2001 we've been hearing rumors of a BBC made Ripper movie.  More than likely a one shot made for TV deal that follows the character of Rupert Giles, aka Ripper.  

Here's what Head had to say;

"I hope that one day it gets made, whether it's in the guise of Ripper or whether we just tell it as a one-off TV movie.  It's a lovely, lovely story.  It's kind of a ghost story.  It's also about a man investigating his own soul."

I'm with you Anthony.  With all the weird Buffy news flying around, it's good to hear about something that sounds awesome.  Definitely better than the whole Kuzai Buffy without Buffy movie idea.  Odds are the stars won't end up aligning to ever get this made, but I'm just happy to hear that Giles himself is still fighting the good fight.

Left 4 Dead 2

Yep. Left for Dead is coming back this November and it's set in one of my favorite cities, New Orleans! Hot damn I'm excited...

...And if we run outta bullets, they're gonna wish we hadden't...


Here's the press release:
Coming exclusively to Xbox 360 and PC, L4D2 promises to set a new benchmark for co-operative action games and become one of 2009's marquee titles."

A large part of how Left 4 Dead became 2008's top-selling new IP on Xbox 360 and the PC was the custom-tailored gameplay made possible by the AI Director," said Gabe Newell, president and co-founder of Valve. "With the knowledge gained from creating the original, new technology, and a passionate team, L4D2 will set a new benchmark for cooperative action games."

Set for release on November 17, the title adds melee combat to enable deeper co-operative gameplay, with items such as a chainsaw, frying pan, axe, baseball bat, and more.

Introducing the AI Director 2.0, L4D's dynamic gameplay is taken to the next level by giving the Director the ability to procedurally change weather effects, world objects, and pathways in addition to tailoring the enemy population, effects, and sounds to match the players' performance. The result is a unique game session custom fitted to provide a satisfying and uniquely challenging experience each time the game is played.

Featuring new Survivors, boss zombies, weapons, and items, Left 4 Dead 2 offers a much larger game than the original with more co-operative campaigns, more Versus campaigns, and maps for Survival mode available at launch.

Supported by a $10+ million marketing campaign, Left 4 Dead has sold over 2.5 million retail copies since it was released in November of 2008. Left 4 Dead 2 is targeted for release on Xbox 360 and the PC on November 17, 2009, and will be launched worldwide with a multi-million dollar marketing campaign across TV, Outdoor, and Online.

"Left 4 Dead was backed by our most aggressive advertising campaign to date, and resulted in a top 5 showing on two platforms during holiday 2008," said Doug Lombardi, VP of marketing at Valve. "Left 4 Dead 2 is a larger game and will be supported with even more consumer and retail advertising programs than the original."

Twilight and Let The Right One In Review


Last night I sat down to finally watch Twilight. My wife is a big fan of the series (as most females over five are apparently... I think chick fandom goes from Dora the Explorer directly to Twilight now) and a couple of months ago she suggested I read the books. She knew I liked vampires and thought I would like the series. Well the first one was a rough read. Real rough. I don't know if it was so much written for junior high school girls or written by a junior high school girl. The characterizations, descriptions, pacing, and about everything else were amateur at best, laughable at worst. The book picked up a little at the end, but really not enough to save it for me. I didn't read anymore of the series. 

So I wasn't really expecting much from the movie, but you know what? It wasn't that bad. In fact it was kind of entertaining.  The premise is basically Pheonix transplant, Bella (played by Kristen Stewart) moves to the small town of Forks to stay with her dad. She's your typical, angsty, almost goth-y, moody teen who seems bored by everything. Cue high school bad boy Edward (played by Robert Pattinson). Only instead of smoking weed in the pines and listening Wu Tang, he drinks blood (only animal's blood though) and listens to Debussy. Yep. Edward is a vampire who can read minds. Everyone's but Bella's. And he thinks she smells really good. So he loves her. And she loves him back. But they shouldn't be together. And then some nasty vampires come to the area. And one of them wants to kill Bella. End of synopsis.

You're probably thinking that sounds incredibly fucking lame. And I'll give you that. It does. But somehow it works. The direction of this movie is solid, and the northwest is shot beautifully. The actors actually give decent performances, finding things in their characters that were never on the page. And the nasty vampires are actually way more nasty than they ever were in the book. And the movie is filled with little touches that add depth where there was none in the book. For example, things go south for Bella and she is fleeing her home in Forks, leaving her life behind. On the way out of town she glances at her former high school friends coming out of a diner. They're laughing, happy, carefree. A very nice way to illustrate the road not taken. 

I was entertained by this movie. It's very much a bubble gum, Hollywood, vampire love story, where the vampires aren't really vampires, and the danger isn't really that dangerous (as the entire movie is narrated by the character of Bella, so we know she makes it) but it was better than I was expecting. I'm sure low expectations had a bit to do with my reaction to this film, but fuck, I'll take what I can get.

So after the sugary, Hollywood version of vampire love, I was ready to cleanse the palette. So I fired up the 360, opened up the Netflix watch now, and booted up Let The Right One In (actually in HD, and the transfer of this film was easily the best looking movie I have ever watched on netflix watch now).

Let The Right One In follows a young boy named Oskar who is relentlessly bullied at school. He's a victim and unhappy. He hides a knife and a folder full of newspaper clippings about murder in his room. At night he likes to take his knife into his apartment's courtyard, where he pretends he's stabbing his tormentors. One night a young girl appears on the playground and asks him what he's doing. Her name is Eli. She's not wearing a coat. It's winter in Sweden. Oskar asks her why she's not cold. She says she supposes she's forgot how.  Slowly over a couple weeks, they strike up a relationship. She's a vampire. And not a Twilight vampire either. She drinks human blood (usually in a brutish and violent fashion). She'll burn up in the sunlight. If she goes into a person's residence uninvited she'll seep blood out of every pore. So in essence, a real vampire. Edward wouldn't last two minutes if he ran into Eli in a dark alley. Anyway, Oskar and Eli fall in love.

I can't say anymore about this film except that it was one of the most powerful vampire movies I have ever seen. The cinematography is simply amazing, using tripods and almost no hand held. Each scene is shot like a photograph. Square sterile buildings are shot like works of art. Long shots are used liberally to really illustrate the isolation of Oskar and the Sweden of 1982 (this is a period film). It is just a jaw dropping, beautiful film. 

And the score is fantastic. It just really stands out. In fact the entire sound design is stunning. Every frame of this movie was loved, was cared about. You can tell Tomas Alfredson, the director, crafted each shot, thought deeply about each shot. It is really just a gorgeous film and I can't recommend it enough.

And I didn't even get to the pool scene at the end. I'm not going to give it away but that scene is now one of my top ten scenes of all time (and yes I have a top ten scenes of all time... shut up). You'll know it when you see it. Just a-fucking-mazing. I can't recommend  it enough. Watch this movie. Watch it now. If you consider yourself a film fan, then it's required.

So in summation, Twilight was a entertaining piece of fluff and Let The Right One In was a staggering piece of art. And we live in a world where fluff trumps art. Fuck.


Ryan Reynolds Talks Deadpool

When asked if Wolverine would have any part in a Deadpool movie, Ryan Reynolds had this to say; "Without saying too much, I can't imagine that there's gonna be any tie-in to the Wolverine movie at all."

Ok, I get that. There really isn't a great reason Wolverine should be in a Deadpool movie anyway. But man did Deadpool suck in Wolverine: Origins.

Reynolds doesn't come out and say that here, but read between the lines...

"There's so many variables to play. It's tough because when you have a character like Deadpool, to the greatest extent of your power, you want to bring as much authenticity to that character as possible. And by 'authenticity,' I don't mean that you'd want to make him somebody that you'd have a Starbucks coffee with, I mean that you want to make him as close to the comics as possible. And there's nothing that I wouldn't do to make sure that ends up on film, but sometimes things are out of your control, things that you can't change. But I'm really happy, in these early talks, that the studio is as obsessed with making it as close to the comic book source material as possible. And that's all I really needed to hear. Cuz I will husk-f*@k a herd of cattle to bring Wade Wilson to life as the real deal."

Wow. I agree with you Ryan. Um, any thoughts on the mask that you would pretty much have to wear to make your previous statements at all true?

"There's no way to do this without having the scarring, having the mask, having it all. And it can be done. It's a no-brainer in that sense. You gotta have the character of Deadpool. You don't want to just invent something new and call it Deadpool."

Wow. I totally agree with you. That whole inventing a character and calling it Deadpool thing is what pisses me off so much about Rob Zombie's Michael Myers. As usual Mr. Reynolds, you are the shit. I hope this movie is made how Ryan seems to want it to be, and not how I'm sure the studio would love to fuck it up. Good luck, Deadpool. You deserve better than Wolverine: Origins.

The Fallen

MTV give us a good look at The Fallen from the upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie. Wow. He kind of looks like a robot Ron Perlman. More than kind of really, except for the ass wings. I'm pretty sure Ron Perlman doesn't have ass wings.

Well there is is. The title character of the new Transformers movie is a robot Ron Perlman with ass wings. Ain't Hollywood grand.

Full GI Joe Trailer

So earlier last week I posted the into to this trailer up on here. For those of you who watched it, there's not a lot I need to say about it. It's kinda dumb looking. Well, here it is again, but with more on the end of it. A little more Baroness, which is nice, and the rest of the Joe team, which is kinda ok. Really other than Snake Eyes it could be pretty much any action team. So here you go. Good thing those outfits that the Joes wear look exactly alike. I hate being able to tell characters apart in movies anyway.
