news:blended 7.21 - 7.27By Ed Perkis: 2007-07-28 09:25:57
 If you haven’t managed to catch it yet, don’t miss Once, an Irish film playing at the little theater that is hard to get to and plays independent and foreign films in your town. It’s a different kind of musical and you’ll find out what happened to that guy who was the guitar player in The Commitments. SATURDAY Bourne is no Kirk. Matt Damon is being bandied about as the next James T. Kirk in the J.J. Abrams version of Star Trek. Unfortunately, one of the people who is not bandying that about is Matt Damon. He says he’s too old for the age that Abrams wants to start the movie story. SUNDAY Steven Chow is the new Bruce Lee. You suck America. Bruce Lee once played the Green Hornet’s sidekick Kato on American television. Some guy played the Green Hornet. Now word comes that Seth Rogan, who will write and star in a big screen version of the crime fighter radio program, serial, and television show, wants Steven Chow of Kung Fu Hustle fame to be his stereotyped Asian number two. Number two is also where Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ended up thanks to some idiotic drivel starring Adam Sandler. We deserve everything we get in this country. Look for a pile of shit starring Lindsay Lohan next week. MONDAY Jason Morgan is super impressed with Spawn. Where they are going, they don’t need roads. Jason dissected Todd McFarlane’s MTV.com interview about a Spawn sequel and came away thinking that Todd has his head up his own rectum. This is a guy who way overspent on some meaningless home run ball a few years back, so rectum head seems on point. Even scarier than a rectum head is that motion capture thing they did on Polar Express a few years back. That’s demonic; we all know it. But Robert Zemeckis seems to love it and may be doing yet another version of A Christmas Carol using the technology and the voices of Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. TUESDAY Your grandfather’s horror. Bad guy will play good guy. It wasn’t all just bomb shelters, racism, and malts down at the corner drugstore back in the 1950’s. They also had some hella scary movies. Not knife through the head scary, but scary none the less. Jason Morgan puts together another Dementia of the Dammed for you to sort it all out. Zachary Quinto wasn’t in any 1950’s horror movies, but he was Sylar in “Heroes,” which makes him popular right now. He is attempting to continue with the popular thing by getting himself cast as Spock in the Star Trek movie that Matt Damon won’t be doing. WEDNESDAY Mickey Mouse quits his three pack a day habit. Screw the rumors, here’s the real Watchmen deal. In order to be more family friendly, Disney has banned smoking in all their movies. I think it would be friendlier to MY family if they made their theme parks affordable to four people at the same time. I shouldn’t have to take out a second mortgage just to ride Splash Mountain. After tons of rumors and counter-rumors, the Watchmen cast has been confirmed. I’ve actually heard of half of they people listed, including Kelly Leak himself, Jackie Earle Haley. No confirmation that they are also considering roles for Lupus and Ogilvie. THURSDAY Casting schmasting. Miller says do as I say, not as I do. Another example of why a lot of things we do on sites like this is a big waste of time. On Wednesday it was running across the net that POA Naomi Watts was going to be Draco Malfoy’s mother in the next Harry Potter cash machine. Then on Thursday everyone took it back. So it goes from being probably true to only possibly true in less than 24 hours. What is true is that Frank Miller is going to adapt Will Eisner’s comic “The Spirit” for the big screen. Miller got screwed by Hollywood early and refused to give up control of his comic adaptations. But since Eisner is dead, Miller has no problem making the movie without any creator input. FRIDAY Snyder, Watchmen, and Comic-Con fans threesome. Pictures of where you can’t be. There is a comic book related convention going on that you may have heard of. It’s right in my own hometown, San Diego. Unfortunately, I have an actual job that keeps me on the sidelines, but through the power of the Internet we’ve brought you some news, pictures, posters and other Comic-contastic stuff. That’s all for another week of news blending. It’s like what you get at Jamba Juice, but cheaper and not quite as healthy. If you liked it or didn’t, leave some feedback.
