--- Yet another poster for The Ruins (-->) has appeared over at BD... I'm at about critical mass where my wanting to see this flick already is concerned; they need to stop with the toying with me and just get this sucker into theaters already.
--- There's a hi-def (read: clearer muscles!) version of that Wolverine pic I posted yesterday, as well as a new one (<--- right there), over at JJ.
My biggest fear regarding the writer's strike was that Joss Whedon's triumphant return to television would somehow get marred, lost in the shuffle, that the extra time to let it sit would lead to his becoming distracted and wandering towards other shiny things... so I'm terrifically pleased to see some news breaking on the show - if you'll recall, Joss cooked up Dollhouse as a vehicle for his Faith, Eliza Dushku, over a lunch with the fine lady way back in November - this morning in Variety. From AICN:"Writer-producers Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain will reteam with fellow “Angel” vets Joss Whedon, Tim Minear and Eliza Dushku for Fox’s sci-fi vehicle “Dollhouse.”
Craft and Fain, who most recently oversaw ABC’s “Women’s Murder Club,” wrote “Underneath,” a 2004 “Angel” episode I rank at five stars.
Fox ordered seven episodes of “Dollhouse” in late October, days before the writers guild went on strike. Variety described its premise thusly:
""Dollhouse" follows a top-secret world of people programmed with different personalities, abilities and memories depending on their mission.
After each assignment -- which can be physical, romantic or even illegal -- the characters have their memories wiped clean, and are sent back to a lab (dubbed the "Dollhouse"). Show centers on Dushku's character, Echo, as she slowly begins to develop some self-awareness, which impacts her missions."
The series could hit Fox airwaves as early as autumn, assuming the Screen Actors Guild does not strike this summer."

First, there's news on the sequel to The Descent, still ridiculously titled The De2cent; Marshall is NOT writing this one, and BD gives some details on the plot:"In the sequel to Lionsgate's terrifying film, Shauna Macdonald's character of Sarah returns as a rescue crew finds her and takes her back into the cave to find survivors - where terror ensues once again. We've also been tipped that in the sequel you'll get to see "little" cave monsters in action. And lastly, there is a chance that Lionsgate may not distribute the sequel here in the States as Pathe is currently shopping the project around town."
"Hopefully, my dream project [is next]. "Eagle's Nest". My version of the Indiana Jones action films, except my Indiana Jones would be named Jack Ravenscroft. Now that the WGA strike is over, whoever wants to take a look at the script is welcome."
I've really got to get better at looking up things like this of interest to myself that are just random enough to escape my usually grabby brains: Lee Pace, wunderkind of Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies, apparently stars in The Fall, the second feature-length film by Tarsem Singh, he of The Cell fame (or infamy, depending upon your appreciation of visuals ripped off from a couple dozen other artists and blendered into an acid-trippy buffet of sensory-overloaded nonsense... and/or Jennifer Lopez), a fact I only discovered upon watching the trailer and having an "Is that... could it be... crap it is!" moment.
"I too quit smoking (2013) AND find this type of pictures cool. Also, PSA: if you're feeling like you want to start smoking again, just remind yourself "I do not want my body and house to stink like stale horseshit", then go drink one more glass of water to entertain your hands and lips. Congrats, btw."--- Anonymous congratulates us on another year of not smoking, which we celebrated with an enormous photo-dump of sexy smoking pictures as we're wont to do, annually. .
