I Am Link

.
--- Space Jock - No idea on what he's doing there but Patrick Wilson's joined the cast of Ridley Scott's Prometheus. Hopefully his role involves him and Michael Fassbender just making out on the right-hang side of the screen for the entire running time. All the action of the movie can be over to the left, while to the right it's just Patrick and Fassy going at it like wild animals. Perfect!

--- Bippity Boppity Boo - Even though I loved it Mark Romanek's adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's masterpiece Never Let Me Go is generally considered a failure, I guess because it failed to light that bastion of "good" "taste" the Oscars on fire. So now Romanek's reduced to having to maybe make a live-action version of Cinderella as his next movie, it seems. There is no way that is not ridiculous to accomplish this.

--- I Walked With A Tilda - Glenn takes on several of the most recent movie poster releases over at Stale Popcorn, including the delightful Rosemary's Baby flavored one for We Need To Talk About Kevin. I wouldn't have thought of the I Walked With A Zombie reference so kudos to him for doing so because now I can't see anything else.

--- To The Max - This week's Take Three at the Film Experience takes a look at cinematic legend Max von Sydow, who never gets enough credit I don't think. And dude's still at it hard - maybe he can get some love for David Fincher's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo finally.

--- Big Blues - DH rounded up some recent quotes from Sam Worthington on the Clash of the Titans sequel and where James Cameron stands with the second and third Avatar movies he plans on making. As for the former Sam keeps being mighty defensive about how much better this one'll be than the last; as for the latter it sounds like true to form it's gonna be a long time before we see the next Avatars.
