Today In Sketchy Dark Knight Rises Rumors: Is This The First Look At The Lazarus Pits?

Posted on May 8, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

I honestly have trouble remembering what we wrote about before comic book movie rumors took over our lives–was it Proust? Maybe a thoughtful analysis of the Free Soil Party in the mid-nineteenth century? At any rate, I’ve got your latest piping hot rumor, this time for the just-started-filming Dark Knight Rises. Is this a Lazarus Pit I see before me?

Brendan Fraser Has William Tell In His Sights

Posted on May 8, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Well, you learn something new everyday. Everyone knows about William Tell shooting an apple off his son’s head, but unbeknownst to many Americans (read: me) is that he was also something of a continental Braveheart, fomenting a revolution against the Austrian empire and leading to the creation of Switzerland. And now Brendan Fraser is going to play him! Way to go, William! You’re not a real historical figure until there’s a big budget American movie about you. Anna Paquin is in talks to co-star in the family action film that will be (of course) released in 3D. However, whenever I think of William Tell, I immediately flash to this Far Side cartoon . [ Coming Soon ]
