--- Guy On Girls - Will I hear any news as thrilling as this - Patrick Wilson is joining the cast of HBO's Girls - this week? Somehow me doubts it. See, this is how it's done, everybody - you get some success, and then you hire Patrick Wilson to hump on you, in public. Lena Dunham is the smartest girl around, period. Period!

--- Robo Gold - Nat's talking what he talks best (or at least goodest amongst lots of good) lately with some Oscar chatter, first with regards specifically to Ridley Scott's Prometheus - could Fassy get a nom?) and then a more broad overview of the year here at the half-point. Wait, what? The year's half over. Goddamn.

--- He Came - Christopher Meloni's reteaming with his Wet Hot American Summer director Daivd Wain in the already-posted-about movie starring Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler called They Came Together, which will be spoofing rom-com tropes, supposedly. Meloni is playing Rudd's boss, and what's cracking me up is the name of the company they work for - CorporateCo Corporation and Co., Inc.

--- Vamping Viggo - Well I'm glad to hear there are actually developments developing with regards to a new Neil Marshall movie - The Last Voyage of the Demeter, about the lil' ship ride that Dracula takes to get to London and chase his beloved Mina, is courting Viggo Mortensen as the lead dude, who one assumes fights against the fanged foe. Also, Ben Kingsley's already officially on board as the ship's captain.

--- Shower Scene - It's never until I sit down to rewatch Brian DePalma's 1980 movie Body Double that I recall how much a remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho it really is, so I'm glad Glenn went and wrote this post about that very thing. Now I can be all, "Oh yeah, like Glenn said," when that happens. That will be helpful to me.
