Why the Mass Effect Film Has Me Worried…
January 15, 2010
Mass Effect, the hit rpg/third person shooter/ all around awesome game produced by the geniuses at Bioware impressed a lot of people, not the least of which was me. I’m not impressed, however, with the man who managed to option the movie rights.
Green Lantern Cast Grows, No Need For Alarm… Yet
January 14, 2010
Hitfix reports that Jackie Earle Haley (best known recently for playing Rorschach in Watchmen) is being eyed by Warner Bros. to play Sinestro in the upcoming Green Lantern movie. This addition adds to an already staggering list of characters that are said to appear in the film including (but not limited to) Abin Sur, Kilowog, Tomar-Re, the Guardians of the Universe, Legion, Hector Hammond, Guy Gardner, Clark Kent, and of course Hal Jordan. There is also apparently another, yet unnamed, villain that will appear in the movie.
This movie runs the risk of pulling a “Spider-Man 3″ by throwing way too many characters at you without giving any time to flesh them out. Don’t run to the bomb shelters on this one unless news breaks that Topher Grace has been casted as anything in the film, especially if it’s a character who wears a mask because that thing will never stay on.
And trust me on this one, the moment a grainy still of Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan is released we’ll be the first people to report on it. Now that’s something you can take to the bank.

RIP Spider-Man 4, We Hardly Knew Ye
January 12, 2010
Don’t plan on watching another Spider-Man movie starring Toby Maguire and directed by Sam Raimi because the Associate Press reports that both men have left the franchise. Sony plans to reboot the series in 2012 with a new cast, and is scrapping the current screenplay for one written by James Vanderbilt.
Really, James Vanderbilt? That guy is very hit or miss with his screenplays. Hit being Zodiac, and miss being that travesty of a movie Darkness Falls. Can he do Spider-Man justice by writing a movie focusing on Peter Parker in high school? But then again, it’s not like he has a tough act to follow. The first three Spider-Man movies were a gross portrayal of a very unique and rich cast of comic book characters that eschewed cannon and got too caught up in creating vulnerable villains. I say as long as Sony Pictures has the rights to make Spider-Man movies there is no reason to be surprised when they suck.

Malkovich/Vulture Rumor Makes Me Happy
January 10, 2010
According to Screenrant.com, John Malkovich has basically confirmed his involvement in Spider-Man 4. I am pleased that Vulture is getting a film adaption and pleased further still that Malkovich is in the role. It’s a logical choice and one that will bring in some positive energy to the film. If the writing is faithful to the character then all should be well. That’s asusming of course the studio doesn’t cram in more villains. In my opinoin they should stick with Vulture and maybe one more supporting villain. Any more then two is asking for trouble. Besides, a talent the level of Malkovich deserves a sizable amount of screen time.
Awesome Video: Sweet Dreams Cartoon Montage
January 9, 2010
I recently rediscovered this masterpiece of a video. Using Marilyn Manson’s cover of Sweet Dreams and an amazing array of cartoon footage, this video highlights the sinister edge that exists in a medium often mislabeled as “just for kids”. Kudos to MrSawyer88 for the hard work. This was clearly a labor of love.
