Report: Angelina Jolie is going to San Diego Comic Con, confirmed…

 

Lots of rumours and speculation hits the internets that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt both maybe at this year’s San Diego Comic Con to help promote “Salt”, the action spy thriller. It is confirmed that Angelina will indeed be there to promote “Salt”, in person.

Not sure if Brad will be there though, he probably will. Maybe Brangelina and their kids will be at Comic Con to help celebrate the other movies being celebrated at the panels. I’m sure Brad will be there to support her.

More on it here:

Brad and Angelina maybe a weird couple because of their super stardom, but I’ve admired both of their works for years. I’ve seen Angelina’s movies for years and watched Brad’s films for years too. Brad’s been in many great movies. Some of my favorites he’s been in are: “Inglourious Basterds”, The Ocean’s trilogy, “Fight Club”, “Sleepers”, “12 Monkeys”, “Legends of the Fall”, “Kalifornia”, and that’s about it. No, I still haven’t seen, “Curious Case of Benjamin Button” yet.

Thought: About all this Mel Gibson drama…

I have been following all this Mel Gibson stuff in the news, and it doesn’t surprise me. When he got pulled over for DUI, when he did that rant about Jews, that was a sign to come that Mel is not a very nice guy in reality.

Now you know what it might be like to work with Mel on a movie when he’s on the director’s chair. Can you picture in your head when Mel tells an actor to do something, if the actor makes a mistake or said his lines wrong, I’m sure Mel gets pissed at that too.

Mel to actor: “Ok, in this scene, I want you to walk over there, say your lines in the script and that’s it.” Actor does what Mel says but messes up a few words in the speech. Mel screaming through megaphone, “THAT’S NOT HOW YOU FUCKING DO IT! YOU MESS UP AGAIN, I’M GOING TO FIRE YOUR ASS ON THE SPOT, NOW GET IT RIGHT!!!”

Yep, I bet Mel treats his film crew the same way, abuses them with hate speech. Keep in mind that in Hollywood, not everyone is friendly as you think. Everyone is different. Some actors/directors can be friendly, some can be assholes, etc. You know the deal. So for those who are hurt and offended over Mel’s temper tantrum’s, don’t be. This is nothing new, he’s probably been this way his whole life. I always hear stories that he was never a friendly guy at all.

Report: Edward Norton himself, finally speaks out about his feud with Marvel studios…

Edward Norton the man himself, went to his facebook page to write a statement for his fans. He thanks his fans for their support and he admits that he is sad that he will no longer play the Hulk. He says he loves the character and “The Incredible Hulk” film, he was really looking forward to playing on “The Avengers” movie.

Read what Ed has to say here:

Marvel, bunch of ego driven assholes. They don’t care about their cast. All Marvel cares about is money. I don’t think any other actor to take over the Hulk role will be as successful. Ed helped make “The Incredible Hulk” movie get millions in box office.

Fuck MARVEL! Ed’s a great actor, he’ll have better film projects up ahead of him.

Maybe Ed will get on a superhero movie for DC Comics? Could Ed Norton get a role for Chris Nolan’s “Batman” and “Superman” flicks? That be sweet!

Thought: How did Roman Polanski get himself free in Switzerland? Money and power…

So the not so surprising news announced yesterday that Roman Polanski will not be extradited to the US. How is this possible? Well, I’m 100% positive that Roman payed Switzerland millions or even billions of dollars just so he won’t get extradited and to help get him free. His fame is part of how he has done it, money and power is another reason. It’s insane that this guy thinks he did nothing wrong, he’s delusional for sure.

BREAKING NEWS: Ed Norton is no longer starring the Incredible Hulk ever again…

Marvel Studios President, Kevin Fiege, announced that Ed Norton will not play The Incredible Hulk in the “Avengers” or any other type of Hulk movie ever again. Fiege claims that the reason they fired Ed Norton they needed an actor that has the creativity and the collaborative spirit of other cast members. They want a team player that is able to work with other cast members in the film. In other words to keep it simple, Marvel plans to go for a new direction for the Hulk character and they feel Ed no longer fits.

Read Fiege’s statement here:

Ed Norton immediately fired back by having his attorney hit back at Marvel with an angry rant, Ed’s lawyer claims Ed was all up for the “Avengers” movie and it was something he was looking forward to.

http://www.hitfix.com/articles/2010-7-11-exclusive-edward-norton-s-agent-responds-to-marvel-ceo-s-statement?m=k

I’m totally on Ed’s side. I thought Ed made a perfect Bruce Banner. Ed was like a young Billy Bixby. I thought Ed’s “Incredible Hulk” movie was fantastic. I LOVED IT!  It was definitely better than the Ang Lee/Eric Bana version.

Besides, Marvel movies suck anyway. Marvel only made like a few good superhero movies. Movies I liked that Marvel has done:  “The Punisher” (Thomas Jane version), “X-Men” (the first one only), “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” (it was actually a fun movie), but that’s about it.

Watch out Marvel, I smell a big lawsuit coming by Edward Norton!

Report: Kevin Bacon in talks to play main villain in “X-Men: First Class”, is he Mister Sinister???

Actor Kevin Bacon is in negotiations to star as one of the main villains for Marvel’s, “X-Men: First Class”. It won’t be Magneto ’cause that role is already taken by, Michael Fassbender. It is rumoured that Kevin will be playing Mister Sinister, a villain from the X-Men Comics.

Deadline reports:

Mister Sinister wikipedia, the character that Kevin might be playing:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mister_Sinister

The villain that Kevin will be playing is being kept anonymous for now, but I’m sure the film makers will reveal what character he is playing soon.

This isn’t the first time, Kevin Bacon played a villain in films. This is where his acting is best at, playing the badguy. Kevin’s played the villain in such movies like: “The River Wild”, “Sleepers”, “Stir of Echoes”, “Hollow Man” and maybe a few others.

Kevin is an underrated acted and a talented one. I always admired his work. It’s about damn time he’s got a new movie role for the big screen, though. He hasn’t done anything new in a long while.

At first, I was never interested in the new X-Men movie since Bryan Singer dropped out, but now I’m interested again since Kevin maybe joining the cast!

Report: Michael Caine says Batman 3 to shoot in April…

Look like Christopher Nolan gave ,Michael Caine, the permission to let the media know when “Batman 3” will start shooting. Caine says they will start shooting “Batman 3” in April.

More on it here:

http://www.collider.com/2010/07/09/michael-caine-batman-3-filming-begins-april/

Well, it definitely looks like Caine is on board to coming back to the 3rd one. I’m sure the rest of the cast: Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman and hopefully if Chris Nolan brings back Two-Face, maybe Aaron Eckhart will return too. I hope he brings Two-Face back ’cause that was a cool character. Plus Aaron Eckhart is a great actor. Hopefully Cillian Murphy will be back as Scarecrow too.

Would Maggie Gyllenhaal return? You asked yourself, how? She died in the “Dark Knight”. Well Chris Nolan could possibly bring her back to turn her into a villain. Maybe Maggie would be Catwoman? It would make a lot of sense if Catwoman was the next villain with Maggie playing her as, Rachel Dawes in a catsuit. Rachel was killed in an explosion at Harvey Dent’s home, Batman tries to save them both but he got there too late. Maggie could come back to destroy Batman for revenge and she could take the blame on him for her death. Harvey Dent/Two-Face could possibly bring her back to life somehow.

I think Catwoman should be the next villain, but if they use her, they need to use her right. Make it a different Catwoman. Maggie would make an interesting Catwoman if you think about it. I’m sure we will know who the villains will be soon.

Report: Gore Verbinski says “Bioshock” movie is still in the works!!!

So we haven’t heard much news of Gore Verbinski’s “Bioshock” project lately? Well we finally here something! Gore says, the planned “Bioshock” live action movie is still happening. Guess what folks? Gore vows to make this movie a “hard R” rating. He doesn’t want this movie to be Pg-13. He wants the film R rated so the film can be edgy just like the game. He also says, he will make the film stay true to the game for the die hard gamers that love to play it.

Read more on what Gore have to say here:
http://www.darkhorizons.com/news/17662/-bioshock-movie-still-in-the-works

That’s very cool, the film is going to be R rated. There’s no nudity in the game, but there’s plenty of violence and blood. Plus the enemies you have to kill which are called Splicers are disgusting looking that won’t be for kids.

I’m a HUUUUUuuuugeeee fan of the Bioshock franchise. I think it’s the best first person shooter game ever made.

Speaking of “Bioshock”, I’m still playing “Bioshock 2” currently. I love these games ’cause they’re very hard and pretty challenging to play. I wonder if Gore plans on making the live action movie in 3-D as well? The City of Rapture is taken place underwater like Gore said, so there’ll be plenty of green screen and CGi when they make the film. One thing I worry, I hope they don’t make the Splicers enemies CGI, they should be human actors wearing makeup. Hopefully the Big Daddies won’t be CGI either.

Report: Colin Farrell rumoured to play Ozzy in Ozzy biopic???

Perez Hilton was the first to catch the news of Colin Farrell being casted as Ozzy for the upcoming Ozzy biopic that’s in the works. Keep in mind that this is fucking Perez Hilton we’re talking here. He could be full of shit. Starting rumours just to get attention to his site.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Colin speaks out on the rumour the next day, denying this.

More on it here:

I hope it’s not true ’cause I don’t like Colin as an actor.
