Movie stuff...

This is a fascinating article about M. Night Shaymalan. It explains tons of things for me.

There are apparently tons of lovely Ghost Rider scripts going around. I hope one of them gets picked. Ghost Rider = better movie that Namor. Hell, I really don't understand why they aren't making a Captain America movie right now.

Apparently Buffy tomorrow is going to be gory in an amazing fashion. Just a warning. Those of a squeemish midset might want to have someone to wince into or hold onto or something like that.

"According to the latest Entertainment Weekly, The Rules of Attraction director Roger Avary is looking to take on the adventures of the great Scandinavian warrior of the sixth century. Along with author Neil Gaiman, Avary has written an adaptation of Beowulf." Wow. That's all I can say about that.

Variety reports that dancer-turned-actor Will Kemp has signed to star alongside Hugh Jackman in Universal's Van Helsing, directed by Stephen Sommers.

I've read even more that Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan are saying about the second X-men movie. It says something when actors fromt he Royal Shakespearan Company say things like this about a comic book movie.

It's flattering that we're tasty enough to come halfway across the universe for.

Well, there's an AWFUL lot of us.

And if you trace back the word "war" to sanscrit, it means, literally, "a desire for more sheep."

I loved Signs.

With Neil Gaiman tampering with it, then it's guaranteed to be better than Christopher Lambert's Beowulf -- Even if they were to cast Dolph Lundgren in it, it'd be an improvement over the (Direct-to-video) version that Christopher Lambert starred in. Even if it starred Christopher Walken and [Insert Rap and/or Sports Star Here], it'd be an improvement.

Hell, I'd almost rather watch Ishtar than the Christopher Lambert version. Almost.

I guess what I'm saying here is ...
Beowulf starring Christopher Lambert = Bad

We should have a movie night sometime and watch it.

me too.

I still think it's just cause we're damn tasty, though.

But they had mysteriously-powered circular saws on the ends of metal rods! =p
