Buffy assemble !?!??!?!?



Deadline New York's Mike Fleming was reporting today that Joss Whedon is in final negotiations to direct THE AVENGERS.
it has since popped up in a few reliable sources.

on paper it reads two ways.

1. A dream come true. Comic book fan handling what could be the greatest comic movie of all time .

created buffy
launched astonishing X-men
doll house
fire fly

his writing is perfect for a group dynamic. witty fast paced with a unique ability to juggle multiple personalities and exploit the innate humor in in cultural differences (whether it be lesbians and strait folks or cowboys and aliens )

2. he has not really proven to be a "mighty" director

I loved serenity but it sorta just looked like a tv show on the big screen I can't think of a single buffy episode he directed and thats probably a bad thing ( though i'll admit I have not seen every episode of the program so perhaps he has lensed one that will floor me upon first viewing)

so In closing excited if he writes it worried if he directs it .
anxious to see what happens

bring back the zombie

WWE sent out the following press release today…
SMACKDOWN GOES SYFY

World Wrestling Entertainment(R) and Syfy announced today a multi-year agreement that brings Friday Night SmackDown(R) to the "Imagine Greater" network beginning in October 2010.

Syfy's original Friday night drama series will move to Tuesday night, where hit series such as Warehouse 13 and Eureka have yielded unprecedented ratings success. WWE NXT(TM) will leave Syfy in October as Friday Night SmackDown joins the schedule.

"WWE(R) is the ultimate in imagination-based sports entertainment. The fantastical thrills of Friday Night SmackDown provide an ideal addition to the Syfy slate, as it targets the younger male and female demographics, which are the fastest growing categories for WWE," said Dave Howe, President, Syfy. "With Tuesday night, a proven winner for our original drama series including Warehouse 13, there is bigger opportunity for series such as Stargate Universe, Sanctuary and Caprica to thrive on a night with a significantly larger number of viewers available to watch live."

"Syfy is a terrific partner and we look forward to bringing our proven ratings winner and ten year television institution, Friday Night SmackDown, to the network," said WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon. "With this move, WWE is thrilled to be expanding its long-standing relationship with the NBC Universal family."

Friday Night SmackDown averages more than 3.4 million viewers a week and is currently the most watched TV program on Friday nights among Males under 55 and beats all Friday primetime programming on ABC, NBC, FOX and CW among Men 18-34*. The two hour television program will be presented weekly on Syfy and features a star-studded cast of WWE Superstars and Divas including Undertaker(R), Edge(R), Rey Mysterio(R), Chris Jericho(R), CM Punk(R), Michelle McCool(R), Beth Phoenix(TM) and Layla(TM).

The Tenement


The Tenement (2003 BRAIN DAMAGE FILMS)

A paranoid nerd who thinks he's becoming a werewolf, a beautiful serial killer who preys on serial killers and the nefarious Black Rose Killer are just some of the inhabitants of The Tenement, the new anthology by promising newcomer Glen Baisley. The Tenement has all the dark wit and twisted morality of classic EC comics with all the self awareness and continuity of Stephen King's interwoven short stories.

The best of the bunch is the story of a young mute girl named Sarah who is terrorized by an obsessive stalker but the tables are quickly turned as the predator realizes his prey may not be as alone as he thinks. As he does throughout the film, Mr. Baisley uses the “cat and mouse” struggle, like the one between Sarah and her attacker, to travel across a lot of film history. What starts in the territory of 70's exploitation fare (see "Last House on the Left" or "I Spit on Your Grave") quickly steers into dark realms first traveled by Fulci and Argento.

Let me take a second to talk to any one out there who's over 30, has loved this stuff since they could walk and hate the state of horror right now....

Ok Reagan/Bush era young couch potatoes: are you listening?

The Tenement is a good old fashioned, late night, make out with your girl, drink beer with your buddies, turn it into a drinking game, found it on the bottom of the shelf in the horror section of an old mom and pop video store, would see it at a drive in if they existed, pre Blockbuster, old-school, anything goes film making, titties bouncing, gory good time.

Roughly translated: The Tenement is a horror film by a horror fan, for horror fans.

Only time will tell if Mr. Baisley will make the jump to the big screen or if he will stay a small screen hero in the punk rock like environment of digital video “do it your self revolution.”

Either way there’s no doubt that he has a very bright future, making very dark movies.

this is a real bad idea

they are gogin to remake The Toxic Avenger

the goal is to "turn Toxie into a green superhero for these environmentally conscious times."

thats really all I have to say

While further information is under wraps, the plan is to keep the show extremely faithful to the Kirkman and Adlard’s comic book series.

Rogue has Teeth

Rogue (2007)

Greg McLean’s first flick was Wolf Creek and though I didn’t care for that cliché ridden piece of garbage, something about him tackling Nature Amuck had me intrigued.

Rogue is the story of a group of tourists shipwrecked by a giant cranky salt water crocodile who wants nothing more than to feast on the Australian branch of central casting’s disposable characters (the A.B.C.C.D.C). We’ve seen this setup a billion times before but McLean pulls out the stops and delivers what may be the best animal amuck film since Jaws.

Mr. Aussie Horror uses quirky pacing to fuck with our expectations to give us some legitimate popcorn in the air, jump out of your seat moments. This flick is by no stretch of the imagination gore free either (plenty of chopping and rendering) and the crocodile itself is one of the most convincing pieces of CG I can remember. So even though I am in the minority, and could care less for my visit to scenic Wolf Creek, Greg’s second stop on the Australian terror tour has me anxious to travel Down Under next time around.

Marvel iPad App is real

well let the digital comic wars begin . ( i stole this from newsarama)

Marvel confirmed this morning through a press release that their iPad App is real, is ready, and is a launch title for the device.
The App itself is free and will be similar to ComiXology's current iPhone application for digital comics, as ComiXology handled development of the App. Individual issues will be offered at $1.99 each !!!!!!!

"Over 500" titles will be available at launch, with new titles added every week. Books will range from classic titles from the 1960s to issues as recent as 2009 and possibly even more recent releases. While no specific timeline was given of how long an issue must be on the stands at comic shops before it will show up on the iPad, and it will likely vary from title to title for the time being. Jonathan Hickman's run on Fantastic Four, which launched only last fall, was specifically cited as coming to the device, for example.

“The iPad is the first device that offers us a chance to present digital comics that are even close to replicating the experience of reading a print comic," said Dan Buckley, publisher and CEO of Marvel Publishing in the release. While the screen is slightly smaller than a standard comic book page, readers have the option of viewing entire pages (the screen's about the same size as a digest, the format most manga and many of Marvel's all-ages books are reprinted in), or in a panel-to-panel guided read.

Also included in the App is a comic shop locator, hoping to bridge the gap from digital to print. The locator will allow users to find a comic book specialty store with easy address and phone listings to "journey even further into the Marvel Universe."

Early adopters get a few comics for free, with New Avengers #1, Captain America #1, Invincible Iron man #1, and Thor #1 all available for "a limited time." Those without an iPad can also get the new App for their iPhone or iPod Touch, though with obvious limitations due to the size of the screens.

Sebastian Stan is Bucky Barnes !!!! who the hell is sebastian Stan

Over at newsarama they are reporting that sabastain saw has lead the roll of Captain Americas sid kick
BUCKY BARNS


for those of you who don't know bucky Barns was captain Americas lil brother In arms during WW2 (think robin with A bit more fashion sense). the heroically named "Bucky" was created by Joe Simon and Jack "the king" Kirby in 1941 he was killed trying to to defuse the bomb the evil Baron zemo had lunched at the good guys, this was the same blast sent cap flying into the freezing waters of the North Atlantic.
as you know the magic waters of the North Atlantic are so cold that if you get tossed in you will flash freeze and be preserved in suspended animation (like ice tupperware ware) . the capsical floated around for till the Avengers found him decades later in a block of ice.

Ms barns favorite son was not so lucky and was just plain ol blownuped.

Bucky's death had been notable as one of the few comic book deaths that the dead folk in question stayed dead,
that was until recently when he was brought back In a story that climaxed with CAPTAIN AMRICA dying !!!!!! now why the writers thought we were going to be worried about Caps demise when they didn't even have the gumption to keep his kid side kick dead is beyond me .
but they brought him back and made him the new cap. but now the real cap is back and awwwww who cares really. not me. not even a little.. ok I care a little I still by the Book but l.....well lets get back to the kid i have no idea who he is

You might have seen this up and comer on Gossip Girl or the briefly-aired show Kings on NBC.....


I have no clue what any of that is but I'm sure it's all very good

so guess Stan has signed on for five films, this could mean a couple of things

this could mean the cap films will all take place in WW2. or it could be that we will see stan take a shot at buckys Winter Solider persona
this will give stan the opportunity to really show his chops and a great deal of range. A crazy Russian General Vasily Karpov found Bucky in the Magic suspended animation ocean and rebuilt him into a cold war 16 million dollar man.
it is a huge leap from bright eyed gee whizz side kick to cold blooded terminator like hit man it's the type of character arc careers are built on. it may also just be a case of him appearing in flash back sequences.

at any rate Im getting pretty excited for this flick. one would think we could hear who the bad guy is and what bad guy he will be playing (let's go red skull clap clap clap let's go red skull clap clap clap let's go red skull clap clap clap ) any day now

stay tuned for more info as i get it

but hold on.....

as all these super hero casting revelations come down the pike It has become very apparent that i don't watch enough teen drama because i don't know who any of these fucking people are. i was equally baffled when the excitement rose over WATCHMEN casting I heard that at the comiccon announcement folks went ape shit but I had no clue who any one other then the bad kid in the 'bad news bears" was

perhaps I read too many comics and don't watch enough movies and TV.
or I may just not give a fuck.
But i fell i have an advantage . because for me Thor will be Thor and not the guy from X thing or Y thing and thats the way i'd really like it to be at the end of the day

I hate

me : yea i hate them.

K Quick : how do you hate mars Volta ?

ME : his voice irritating .. it's drives me nuts. reminds me of robert plants shitty howling

DAME-e-uhn it reminds you of robert plant ?

Me : just in the way it grates on me . it hate it . one note makes me want to kill my self

K-quick : I jus.. hey wait you just slammed mars volta by slamming led Zeppelin ?

Me : yea

DAME-e-uhn : thats pretty bold

Me: thats the way I roll Kids
