    So it looks like Ron Howard might be directing Stretch Armstrong. You know... the movie based on the toy that stretches.

    So we got Ridley Scott directing Monopoly, Kevin Lima directing Candyland, Gore Verbinski directing Oujia, and Peter Berg directing Battleship.

    I hope Len Wiseman is currently jobless so he can direct Crossfire.
    Sure why not?

    STRONGER (David Gordon Green) - 6
    THE DISASTER ARTIST (James Franco) - 7
    THE FLORIDA PROJECT (Sean Baker) - 9
    LADY BIRD (Greta Gerwig) - 8

    Scott's and Lima's efforts will be the best of the bunch.

    And the South Park episode mocking Heavy Metal was indeed hilarious. The dream sequences were the best.

    Hahahaha, Fox just greenlit a 3rd Darko movie.

    I guess S. Darko had healthy sales?

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Oh, man, I haven't laughed this hard in a long time.

    Britney to star in new film?

    Britney Spears has reportedly been offered the starring role of a new film, entitled "The Yellow Star of Sophia and Eton."

    "The Yellow Star" --according to the Nation Ledger-- will place Spears in her first starring role since the ill-recieved "Crossroads" as Sophia, a time-traveling woman who tragically falls in love with a man imprisoned in a concentration camp..

    The film is alledgedly set to enter production sometime after the Circus tour's second North American run. There is no director attached to the picture.

    This. Does. Not. Exist. Neither does the 2nd movie. I can't believe it...I WON'T believe it.

    The first Donnie Darko was good enough to warrant sequels?

    Since these Darko movie's aren't made by the same people, isn't getting outraged about it a bit like getting angry at the existence of fan fiction?

    Well, it was never really on my radar, but these latest rumors -- if true -- pretty much puts the Poltergeist remake off my list permanently.
