And now.... some news...
Mar. 25th, 2009 10:01 amI Love You, Phillip Morris, a movie I've been looking forward to, appears to be headed direct-to-video, due to being unable to find a buyer for it. It got a generally positive reception at recent film festivals but seems to be shaking people views of Jim Carrey as an actor. There are realistic portrayals of male gay sex in the movie which seems to be causing some surprise because they're used to seeing him be wild and crazy guy and seeing him being serious actor is causing cognative dissonance. Really, though, another case of violence and bloodspatter all okay in your movies and sex, especially gay sex, not okay in your movies. Meh.
The creator-friendly nonprofit HERO has announced a new promotion for ECCC. For $1, you can buy one of four Hero badges. You wear the badge at the Con and you're elligible for a prize package! DUNdunnuhdunNUH!
Jamie Hernandez and Stan Sakai will be at the Fantagraphics Store after ECCC, 6-8 April 4th for sort of a post con signing party thing.
Variety reports that MGM and the Farrelly Brothers are getting close to casting The Three Stooges movie. Offers are out to Sean Penn to play Larry, Jim Carrey to play Curly and Benicio Del Toro to play Moe.
Marvel is now planning to launch their MMO in 2012. This has been attempting to get off the ground for awhile now....
Vanessa Redgrave is joining that Ridley Scott Robin Hood movie that keeps getting changed up all the time. She will play Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, which is an excellent role for her.
Brian Austin Green has been cast in a new pilot, Body Politic. That doesn't mean he's leaving The Sarah Connor Chronicles but it is a bubble show for renewal at this point. I guess it pays to have a back up plan?
And now, the Star Wars Cantina theme on a harp!
