I Am Link

.
--- Red Snappers - I watched about fifteen minutes of the Scream Awards last night and it happened to be the fifteen minutes where they showed the teaser trailer for Piranha 3DD, which you can watch here. Let me rephrase that - it happened to be the fifteen minutes where they showed the utterly ridiculously teaser trailer for Piranha 3DD. As if we'd want it any other way. I can't believe they're swiping the "machine gun leg" bit from Grindhouse! It's shameless, it's terrible, and I love it. Sad that the movie's now moved to an undisclosed date next year, though. Just release it this weekend, dammit!

--- And speaking of the Scream Awards, our pal Jarett hit the red carpet for the show and asked some stars what their favorite scary movies are and what their favorite Halloween costumes were, and got some great replies!

--- The Iceman Go-eth - James Franco's dropped one of his billion point five projects, this one being The Iceman, in which he would have played mafia contract killer Richard Kuklinski, who apparently killed over a hundred people. All i wanna know is, when does his blowjob movie come out? That's what I want. The blowjob one.

--- Bring It On, Brad - BD is right when they say it's nuts how little movie work we get out of director Brad Anderson - he does TV all the time (most notably a lot of episodes of Fringe), but he's only made six features in the past fourteen years. For such a talented genre film-maker, that's positively Malick-ish. More! We want more! Anyway he does have a couple projects lined up - he's currently filming Jack, with Sam Jackson and Liev Schreiber, and BD reports today that he's putting together a super secret horror project called Unsound, about which we know nothing, hence me saying it was "super secret."

--- Pulling Out Polanski - I only head over to Sunset Gun about once a month because Kim Morgan doesn't update it that often, so I'm always linking to things weeks after they've been posted, but they're always worth it. Especially when she talks about Roman Polanski, which she does often, when she does anything.

--- Matty Matters - If I want to take a moment to insert that picture of Matthew Bomer here and pretend there's more to the link where it came from than just a couple more pictures in the same vein, I think you'll forgive me. I mean, look at that picture. He terrifies me he's so pretty.

--- Staring At Charlize - It's always a celebration when we hear Charlize Theron's making another movie, because we just love her. She's picked up the remake to a Dutch thriller involving dead twin ghosts called Two Eyes Staring which showed at Fantastic Fest earlier this year. Yay for dead twin ghosts!

--- A Trip To The Alps - I won't be watching it - I wanna go into this movie as cold as possible - but Slash has the new trailer for Yorgos Lanthimos follow-up to Dogtooth called Alps, and also word that the movie's been picked up for American distribution sometime early next year. I want this shit bad.

--- Singleted Out - Channing Tatum has joined the cast of Moneyball director Bennett Miller's next movie, Foxcatcher, which already has Steve Carrell set to play convicted murderer, schizophrenic, and heir to the Du Pont fortune John du Pont. Tatum will be playing an Olympic champion wrestler who got shot and killed by him. No motive was apparently ever sussed out for the crime. Anyway, singlet please.

--- Loki Madness - It's everybody's favorite comic book character actor ever, much to Chris Evans' annoyance, Tom Hiddleston! Hooray! io9 sat down with Loki at Comic Con and got him to talk about The Avengers a bunch.
