So this weekend was completely seized by our swede. Spending all weekend in front of the computer or behind the camera really wears a person down on you but it’s all for a good cause, right? Yup, indeed our 1st Swede Festival is right around the corner and the entries we’ve received so far are phenomenal! Can’t wait to see what tonight’s deadline will bring us tomorrow. (If you look hard enough, you can find the entries online but I’ll hold off posting them here in order to keep it spoiler free for those who rather wait) Now, let get into the weekend:
• Seems like those Batman rumors continue to swirl around (Jolie as Catwoman? Philip Seymour-Hoffman as Penguin?) as the film continues to dominate the box office. Well SlashFilm has an excellent article dispelling all of those Dark Knight sequel rumors and what might actually happen (if it happens) when we see the caped crusader on the big screen again.
• And speaking of The Dark Knight, the Batman curse has struck again and this time, it’s put Morgan Freeman in the hospital after a car crash and left him in serious condition. Man, if I were Michael Caine, I’d be watching my back right about now.
• A photo from Evil Beet gave us a chuckle this morning as a movie theater marquee was switching from Hancock to The Dark Knight. Reminds me of another incident with a Hancock sign.
• SuperHeroHype has some cool ass hi-res images of the character posters that were shown at Comic Con for Watchmen. They’ll make some cool desktop images to decorate with!
• So the last Spider Man film sucked donkey balls, right? Well, it looks like Sony is looking to head in another direction with the franchise and give Venom a chance to star in his own film, The Hollywood Reporter is reporting. As long as they recast Topher Grace (sorry, that was one of the most horrible casting fuck ups in a long time) then that might be cool…
you can say that morgan freeman is one of the most versatile actors that we have today “
