I Am Link

--- Nuke Em - A good point to stop watching trailers for something is when you can buy tickets for that something, I think, so I'm not watching any more trailers for the new Godzilla movie since I just bought my IMAX tickets for it. There was one on TV last night that I wish I hadn't seen - they're starting to give away too much! But if you're not like me then here, a new trailer for the movie. I saw some people very excited about it, so maybe there's something good in here, but I doubt it's Aaron Johnson's bared ass so I'm not running.

--- Breaking Sex - While I find the news of Sarah Silverman joining the second season of Masters of Sex exciting enough, it's the tid-bit inside that article stating that apparently Breaking Bad's Betsy Brandt was recently cast in the show as well that's the humdinger. Make her wear purple, dammit!

--- Sweat Weather - Frank, the movie where Michael Fassbender is giving us all a lot of head, or something, just got a release date - it will be out towards the end of August, on the 20th. I don't know that Michael Fassbender movies should be released in the Summertime though - I'll be sweaty enough already, even before he gets me going.

--- Everybody Come - Wet Hot American Summer director David Wain's new comedy They Came Together, starring Amy Poehler and Paul Rudd in a spoof-of-sorts of romantic comedies, has a trailer huzzah - you can watch the exclusive over at Buzzfeed. I'm surprised this movie is being released on demand the same day it's being released in theaters - that's a starry cast for such a thing. Interesting...

--- The Switch - Nicole Kidman and Gwyneth Paltrow have both tried to get the The Danish Girl (the story of the first sex-change operation in 1931) made, but now comes word that The King's Speech director Tom Hooper is going to make the movie, and the only name attached is Eddie Redmayne. Well it's about time Eddie Redmayne played a girl, anyway.

--- Snow Job - The dude who wrote the book that the terrific little thriller Headhunters was based on is apparently also known for a series of detective novels in Norway; one of them is called The Snowman, which martin Scorsese was going to turn into a film, but now he's moved on and Let the Right One In director Tomas Alfredson is attached. Honestly I'm more excited at this point to see what Alfredson will do than Scorsese.

--- Bet On Black - After Cary Fukunaga directs that child-soldiers-in-Ghana movie with Idris Elba next month, he's going to make a movie called The Black Count, which tells the true-story of Three Muskateers author Alexander Dumas father Thomas-Alexandre Dumas,who was a general during the French Revolution and the highest ranking person of color to ever serve in the European army. Maybe he'll like working with Idris so much he'll work with him again! And then they'll get married, and I can visualize Cary and Idris being together, like together together, and all will be fine and good in the land, halleluiah.
