I Am Link

.

--- Strange Bedfellows - I don't know why it hadn't occurred to me that Deliver Us From Evil director Scott Derrickson might carry along one of the hunks in his supernatural-cop movie to his next gig, directing Marvel's Doctor Strange, but that's the word via Edgar Ramirez who says he's in talks with them about an unspecified role. Ramirez wouldn't say whether he's talking o them about the Doctor role or his nemesis called Baron Mordo, but I am guessing it's the latter because god forbid a non-Caucasian play a hero.

--- Money Pits - Business Insider (yeah I can't believe I'm linking there either) figured out the thirty most expensive movies ever made, adjusted for inflation, and I can't believe that gigantic heap of garbage that was the third Pirates movie cost that much money. Everyone involved with that should be so enormously ashamed. (Ha, as if.) It's enough to make me never want to watch another Gore Verbinski movie (although Lone Ranger accomplished that already).

--- Fury Furloughed - David Ayer's Fury, that tank movie starring Brad Pitt's haircut, is getting some re-shoots next month even though we've already seen a trailer (of sorts) and it's supposed to be out in November. As that link points out Brad Pitt's been through this recently with World War Z and that worked out well for him (biggest hit he's ever been in) so he's probably okay with this.

--- Goodbye Leto - Any day that I can report that Jared Leto will not be in a movie is a good day - he's supposedly turned down the lead in Brilliance, which Will Smith had also recently turned down. I can actively ignore him when he sticks to his stupid band, unlike the nightmare that was this past )scar season, which I'm still trying to forget happened.

--- Nothing More Than Feelings - I missed this run-down of what Pixar's next movie Inside Out is all about over at Vulture, and what it means specifically for little girls (the film has a female lead and she's not a princess) until a good girl-friend of mine just emailed it to me making me laugh by screaming about how "Of course their movie about girls is all about EMOTIONS." Lolz.

--- I Wonder - I could google this but I'd rather just ask y'all (lazy bones) if you've seen any pictures of our Wonder-Woman-to-be Gal Gadot in public in the past couple of months? I ask because all the pictures I've seen of her before she was cast make me CRAZY she is so model skinny, and I want to know if they've managed to beef her up at all. I bring this up now because of the word circulating that apparently Wonder Woman's role in Batman Vs. Superman is turning out to be much bigger than we'd originally been told; this is a mixed bag since I really want the character to get carried out of the inexplicable ghetto she's been trapped in, but I don't really trust Zack Snyder anymore as the man to do it.

--- Mr Vicious - I guess we can check another actor off the give-a-damn list - I don't give-a-damn about Gary Oldman anymore after his gross rant defending the rights of poor downtrodden straight white male assholes in the upcoming Playboy. All you need to know Katey Rich says about it over at Vanity Fair. Fuck him. 

--- And Finally lucky all-of-us, the Rosemary's Baby miniseries is going to be released onto Bluray in mid-August! It was called, "The year's best miniseries!!!" by blind deaf people who had better things to do and didn't actually watch it.
