Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Trailer

Here is the first trialer for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows.  Note that this contains scenes from both parts.

Robert Pattinson is Related to Vlad the Impaler...WTF?!?!?

According to ancerstery.com, Robert Pattinson is distantly related to Vlad the Impaler.  I call bullshit on this one.  If they are related, I bet Vlad is spinning in his grave.

EPIC FAIL: ThinkGeek Gets Cease and Desist Letter Over Unicorn Meat

The National Pork Board is angered over the misrepresention of unicorn meat.  Specificaly, they don't like it being refered to or discribed as being 'the new white meat'...because somehow people are going to corelate this to pork.  They are so angered that they sent a cease and desist letter to ThinkGeek, the company selling the product.  The joke is on them, however, being that the product in question is actually an April Fools joke and is not actually being sold.  Here is the first page of the c&d, which happened to be 12 pages long, in all it's halarity:

ThinkGeek has also posted the following apology:

"It was never our intention to cause a national crisis and misguide American citizens regarding the differences between the pig and the unicorn," said Scott Kauffman, President and CEO of Geeknet. "In fact, ThinkGeek's canned unicorn meat is sparkly, a bit red, and not approved by any government entity."

You'd think they would have gotten one for either the Dharma Initiative Clock or the Tribbles 'n' Bits.  It just goes to show you how stupid the members of the National Pork Board are.  Someone needs to explain the concept behind April Fools to them.

ThinkGeek has declared this to be the best c&d they have ever gotten, and are offering $10 off a purchase of $40 or more to all of those "offended by [their] portrayal of Unicorn Meat as 'the new white meat'".  Use the code PORKBOARD to get your discount.

Movie Review: A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)

Starring - Jackie Earl Haley, some kids, and that guy from The Sarah Conner Chronicles


They made such a big deal about this one being 'scary' that I was looking forward to it. Jackie Earl Haley looked pretty good in the trailers. Yes it's a remake of a classic horror movie, but they couldn't screw it up any worse than they did Friday the 13th...right?? Well...I don't even know where to begin with this one folks.

One of the first things I noticed was that they never showed a close up of Freddy's face in any of the trailers that I saw. Now I know why:

Green Hornet Trailer is...well...Seth Rogeny

Here is the first trailer for The Green Hornet.  While I'm impressed by the fact that Seth Rogen has lost a great deal of weight, this movie looks stupid.  It's going to suck major balls.  Don't believe me??  See for yourself:

Miley Cyrus Mad Over Criticism

Miley Cyrus is mad about the mass amount of criticism she's gotten over her new onstage look and routines.  She saids that she's not allowed to be sexy because she's a woman:

"On Access Hollywood's "The Billy Bush Show," she said: "Girls are immediately going to say, 'Oh, she's trying to sell sex.' Well, I love Zac Efron, but what's he selling? He's gorgeous, he's hot, I don't go see his movie because I'm like, 'He's such a fantastic actor.' He's a great actor, but he's hot. He's just not in a leotard with his legs out. He has his shirt off. So what's the difference?

"In 'High School Musical' ... he's in basketball shorts and his cutoff tank top and all the girls are dying."

Okay Miley, here's the thing:  you are a 17 year old girl...GIRL...G-I-R-L.  No one except pedophiles whats to see a little girl dress like that.  Besides, your still trying to market yourself as a role model to young girls.  How is making out with other women and dressing like a $2 whore role model material?  Congradulations, your on the fast-track to being the next Britney!  I can't wait till you shave your head.

'Breaking Dawn' Now Has Twice the Suckage

Copying Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, Summit Enternainment has decided to break the finial Twilight film into two parts.  Part one will release November 18, 2011.  I wonder what the rating will be, because a baby half-breed vampire chewing its way out of its mother womb just screams 'family movie'.  Maybe they will make it like the diner scene in Spaceballs.

Les Grossman Film is Further Proof that Tom Cruise is Batshit

So there really is going to be a Les Grossman film.  I do beleive that this will be the finial nail in the coffin of Paramount.  Don't know what will happen to Cruise though...he's a turd that just won't flush.

"HOLLYWOOD, CA (June 9, 2010) - Paramount Pictures and MTV Films announced today that they are set to develop a movie around mega-producer Les Grossman. The announcement comes on the heels of Grossman’s groundbreaking and visionary production of the soon-to-be Emmy® award-winning 2010 MTV Movie Awards Sunday night. Tom Cruise, along with Ben Stiller and Stuart Cornfeld of Red Hour Films will produce and have secured the life rights to Grossman.

Grossman, best known as a mega producer, has most recently mentored talents such as Rob Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. In 2008, Grossman was introduced to the masses by Stiller in the comedy “Tropic Thunder” where the famed producer had a cameo playing himself. Said Ben Stiller: “Les Grossman's life story is an inspiring tale of the classic human struggle to achieve greatness against all odds. He has assured me he plans to quote, ‘F**king kill the sh*t out of this movie and make Citizen f**king Kane look like a piece of crap home movie by the time we are done.’ I am honored to be working with him.” When asked what the screenplay was about Grossman responded: “To quote my great friend Kirk Lazarus, ‘I don’t read the script, the script reads me.’”Adam Goodman, Paramount Film Group President said, "Everything I learned in this business, I've learned from Les. I started out as his assistant, and from the first day he threw his desk at me when I got his lunch order wrong, I have loved him like a father. I am forever grateful to Ben and Stuart Cornfeld and their ability to secure his highly-coveted life rights,"Tom Cruise is said to be in talks to portray Grossman in the film.Michael Bacall (“Scott Pilgrim vs. the World”) will write the script."

Ozzy Osbourne A 'Medical Miracle'?

Well, he seems to think he is....and he wants to donate his body to science.  He believes that scientists may be able to learn something from him.

"By all accounts, I'm a medical miracle. When I die, I should donate my body to the Natural History Museum. It's all very well going on a bender for a couple of days but mine went on for 40 years. At one point, I was knocking back four bottles of cognac a day, blacking out, coming to again and carrying on."

Hmmm...I just chalk it up to the fact that he's rich and can afford a shit load of detox.

Totally Random: BEAR ALERT!!!

Poor bear didn't get a chance to ride the trampoline.

'The Goonies' - Reunion and Deleted Scenes

Apparently, there was a "Goonies' reunion over the weekend.  During the festivities, a documentary of the making of the film was shown.  It was also mentioned that a possible sequel may or may not be happening, and that there is a Broadway play in the works.  There were also several deleted scenes that were shown.  One, featured below, is a fight scene with a giant octopus:



Another deleted scene was of two gorillas.  Yes...two gorillas:

"...[Spielberg] himself originally filmed a scene involving two escaped gorillas that steal a "red convertible and go tooling around town," according to the film's director, Richard Donner.

In that now-lost scene, the primates escape from a circus act when a police officer hears "frantic pounding and agonized screams" from the back of a van. Ripping open the door, the gorillas bowl over the cop and take off in the convertible of the preppy jock character (Steve Antin). Why was such a wild scene cut out? "I don't think the ape suits really worked," Donner admits. Considering the ape suits came from the justifiably forgotten movie "Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes," it's easy to see what he's talking about."

Also, Corry Feldmen was there and took a moment to bring up Corey Haim as is his custom these days.  Nothing kills a party faster than bringing up your dead friend whose memory/legacy (if he had on) you constantly mooch off of.

Guillermo del Toro's 'Hobbit' Statment

Here, in it's interiety, is Guillermo del Toro's statement about his decision to leave 'The Hobbit':

"So, here I am again. As promised, I am posting a longer message before the week's end.

I have to thank those of you that have supported me from the start as well as those that converted along the way. And even say farewell to those that never did convert or believed.

I will miss Mr. Crere, the faith of Compa and Sir DennisC, the wisdom of Voronwe, the joy of Grammaboodawg, the support of Kangi Ska and so many, many others

Tony Jaa is a Monk...IRL

Actor Tony Jaa, best known for the kick-ass film Ong Bak, has apparently lost his marbles completly and has becoem a monk.  This is fairly common practice in Thailand, however this made much more interesting considering all the crazy rumors on the Ong Bak 2 set:

"The initial footage from that film looked fantastic but it didn't take long for strange stories to emerge from the set - stories of Jaa sacrificing chickens before shooting for the day could commence - and things rapidly fell behind schedule and way over budget. And then, with pressure mounting and debts adding up, Jaa simply crumbled under the pressure and disappeared. He was gone for two solid months - during which time the wilder stories explaining his absence involved black magic in Cambodia - before his mentor Panna Rittikrai managed to track him down and bring the wayward star home."

From there, it only got worse.  He broke down on television, then he later issued demands to the movie production house, and shortly there after was taken away in a car...an incident that lead many to believe he was kidnapped.  The fallout from this lead to Ong Bak 2 to be split into two movies.  While the second film did marginally well, Ong Bak 3 sucked.

Hopefully, Jaa will get what he needs while at the temple and will return to acting.

More 'Smurfs' FAIL

I vaguely recall The Smurfs being in a forest, living in mushroom houses, and Gargamel living in a decrepit castle with a cat.  So why in the hell are they filming in Manhattan??  And why is Neil Patrick Harris in it??

Victoria's Secret Jumps the Gun

Victoria's Secret is congradulating Rosie Huntington-Whiteley on replacing Megan Fox's fired ass in Transformers 3.  However, someone forgot to mention to them that Paramount has yet to confim if she has indeed been cast.  I sense the possiblity of an EPIC FAIL here.
