Edward Norton Won't Play Hulk In 'The Avengers'

Jul 9th 2010 10:13PM (Cinematical)
Recasting Norton would essentially prove, after the Iron Man 2 recasting, that Marvel is unwilling to satisfy its actors (both Howard and Norton), and its fans. Both Howard and Norton were/are extremely interested in replaying their respective characters, almost guaranteeing repeat great performances, but Marvel hides behind its checkbook. (Now undoubtedly larger with Disney's backing.)

Failure to recast Howard in Iron Man 2 has shown fans that Marvel doesn't want to spend money to make money. Hardcore fans weren't too pleased with that move. (Though it didn't stop the ticket sales.) Following up with a recast of Norton would prove that Marvel doesn't care about continuity, its actors, or its fans. I guess loyalty doesn't mean too much to ANYONE anymore.

...What's with Hilary Clinton in the game?

Sam Worthington to Play Flash Gordon?

With names of places like Mongo, and a plotline like that, how can it NOT be camp? The beauty of a franchise like Flash Gordon is that it is camp. Embrace it, don't fight it. Also, bring back the Queen soundtrack

Sam Raimi to Use 'District 9' Model for Uruguayan Director?

It's visually interesting for a while, but I'm not seeing much of a storyline...not to mention the soundtrack is stolen from 28 Days Later (or was it Weeks?)

New Microsoft Courier video details tablet interface, exciting life of a shoe designer (Update: Windows 7 underneath, might run Microsoft hardware)

Oct 1st 2009 1:40PM (Engadget)
If you look closely, the Apple website is open in the browser of the Courier. Now really, why would Microsoft do that? They wouldn't. This is either a fake, or Apple toying with us.

Gearbox doesn't deny Halo involvement, speculation ensues

They're developing Halo 3 for the PC. They show Halo 3 footage in some of the Windows 7 promotional videos on the Microsoft website.

The First Teaser for M. Night Shyamalan's 'The Last Airbender'

Jun 23rd 2009 10:44AM (Cinematical)
This makes me cry...cry foul that is. Part of the greatness that was Avatar: The Last Airbender was the brightly animated world that contrasted the dark content. Moving it to live action could have been done, but the color scheme shown here really messes up the mood and tone that made it so great.

Midway Newcastle reveals new IP: Necessary Force

Looks decent to me, assuming they get a good plot going to match the gritty gameplay. (Bad Lieutenant the game essentially.)
