You might’ve realized it by now, but Real Steel is a ridiculous premise for a movie. So ridiculous it worked , in fact. Twitter blew up this weekend with comments about Hugh Jackman’s and the sweet science of robo-jousting, and Ryan Gosling’s effectiveness in The Ides of March . We tally the best five tweets after the jump.

Netflix CEO Reed Hastings probably wasn’t prepared for the earful (or Internetz-full) he received last month when he announced plans to spin-off Netflix’s DVD rentals into a new company called Qwikster. “It is clear that for many of our members two websites would make things more difficult,” he wrote in a blog post today. “So we are going to keep Netflix as one place to go for streaming and DVD s.” Read on for more flip-flopping, and rejoice?

My first reaction to the new poster for Steve McQueen’s acclaimed drama Shame was natural, perhaps obvious: “But where’s Michael Fassbender?” The guy only ran away with the Venice Film Festival award for Best Actor and is on a track for serious contention in this year’s Oscar Index and is one of the brightest rising stars in all of cinema and makes women and men alike swoon with his bracing good looks. (To say nothing of similarly absentee co-star Carey Mulligan.) But that reaction seems forever ago, lodged in the hours since I haven’t been able to stop looking at it .

The line “I AM the law!” might yet still be spoken in Lionsgate’s 2012 Dredd , the Karl Urban-starring remake of the gloriously cheesy Sylvester Stallone vehicle about a decorated officer wrongfully accused in a dystopian future, but it looks like director Pete Travis won’t be uttering any iteration of that forceful declaration of authority. According to the L.A. Times , Travis has been booted from the remake, which is currently in post-production, while screenwriter Alex Garland steps in to make such significant changes that he might even seek a co-director credit.

Since news broke that a Lady Gaga biopic may be in the works, I’ve fretted. The 25-year-old superstar is ripe for a big-screen toasting, but she’s only been a phenomenon since the latter half of 2008. Would you want to watch a Madonna biopic that stopped after the release of True Blue ? Of course not. Lady Gaga has a gnarly, couture-bedecked arc ahead of her, and I say if she’s destined to be a cineplex draw, why not adapt her eight-track mini-album The Fame Monster into a full-fledged film?

The Lion King 3D ‘s box-office success is admirable on its own, but Disney is looking to ramp up its output of 3-D reboots in a staggering way: Beauty and the Beast , The Little Mermaid , Finding Nemo and Monsters Inc. are all coming back to theaters in 3-D within the next two years. That’s fine, but I can think of 10 great Disney visuals from other animated classics that deserve full-bodied renovation:

Real Steel calls upon Hugh Jackman’s ability to tame and train robots, but this isn’t his first time at the robo-dome. He first conquered a borg named Nicole Kidman in Baz Luhrmann’s failed epic Australia . Ha! Now, now, that’s the first and last Nicole Kidman joke you’ll hear from me because 1) Nicole Kidman is awesome, 2) Rabbit Hole is under-appreciated, and 3) BORGS ARE VINDICTIVE. Let’s reinspect the joys of this looooong movie without ever caring about the story!

“Bottom line, and not that this is any of your fucking business weirdos, but my wife and I want to start a family and we ABSOLUTELY CANNOT have an animal that shits all over the house. Sorry. If you are a parent you will understand. And if not, that probably explains why you have such a hard on for cats. Just sayin’.” And that, Internet, is why Moneyball star Chris Pratt gave up his 15-year-old cat Bella for adoption on Twitter . The actor ultimately gave Bella to a Twitter user named Meghan who is a “perfectly reasonable, sweet and friendly cat lover.” Pratt’s wife is What’s My Number? star Anna Faris. [ ChrisPratt.com ]
