Michael Douglas will finally make a return to the leading roles after a long hiatus from Hollywood. Over the years he has done small roles for a few other films. Michael Douglas already starred in one of Soderbergh’s earlier films “Traffic” which is about the drug war.

Report: Brian Johnson & Angus Young of Ac/Dc on the Howard Stern show…

The leading frontman Brian Johnson and guitarist Angus Young spoke with Howard Stern in a live interview on Sirius last Tuesday. They all talk about a variety of topics on why Brian Johnson would be a married man when he could have all the women he wanted, they discuss the new album “Black Ice”, they talk about Brian Johnson’s smoking addiction and how he drinks alcohol, Angus is the only member of the band that doesn’t do drugs, smoke or drink. Brian talked about living in Sarasota, Florida and how he’s into race cars as a hobby outside of music. Other than Howard’s typical sex talk, they talk a bunch of different things and joke around.

Brian Johnson does most of the talking. Angus is pretty much quiet throughout the interview.

To listen to the interview, go to Blabbermouth:

Report: The Governator visits “Terminator: Salvation” set…

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife Maria Shriver visits the cast and crew of “Terminator: Salvation” on their filming set.

In these pictures, you can see Arnold himself chatting with Christian Bale. Bale is the man wearing the black shirt, wearing sunglasses and has a shaved head. Seems like Arnold and Christian are just hanging around, just joking around and laughing.

Thought: America’s Got Talent is better than American Idol…

So I’ve been finding myself watching America’s Got Talent a lot recently. To my surprise, I am actually enjoying the show. It is actually entertaining and 10x’s way better than the crappy American Idol. Both of these shows are similar, but I actually like seeing a variety of performances on a talent show. I also enjoy the judges too, Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne and David Hasselhoff. A lot of the acts on the show are horrible and laughable, but they are fun to laugh at.

Nuttin But Stringz is actually a pretty cool act. I’m predicting they’re gonna win the whole thing this year.

Report: “The Dark Knight” to be re-released in theaters in January to be ready for the Oscars…

Warner Bros. and the film makers of “The Dark Knight” are planning to re-release the film in theater hoping to attract the voting session of the Academy Awards. The studio not only wants Heath Ledger to win for Best Actor in a Leading Role, they are desperate in getting Oscar nominated for more categories such as “Best Picture”, “Best Director”, “Best Adapted Screenplay”, etc.

The film is aiming for a DVD release date in December.

More on it here:

I’ve said it once before that “The Dark Knight” deserves “Best Picture”, I’m glad Warners is pushing for it.

Report: OJ Simpson – Vegas Robbery Trial – Day 3

The jury selection for the Vegas Robbery trial continues for day # 3. And more jurors just won’t keep quiet about the 1995 murder trial. Poor OJ Simpson must be having a headache in the Vegas court room.

A young ponytailed juror says he remembers his parents denouncing the verdict at the dinner table, and said he could be fair on weighing the current, unrelated charges on Simpson.

While more jurors disagree with Simpson getting acquitted back in 1995 there is one jury member who agreed that he was acquitted, the juror said he’s a huge fan of Simpson’s football career. He also said Simpson had a fair trial in 1995 and the justice system worked.
