From Fark comes the news that The A-Team will be coming to the big screen!. Ah the memories!
Excerpt:
Eighties’ TV show The A-Team is being remade for the big screen.The series, which featured the action-packed adventures of “Hannibal” Smith, “BA” Baracus, “Faceman” Peck and “Howling Mad” Murdock, will be placed in a contemporary setting.
I guess during the stperbowl pepsi had a pretty bad ad featuring people sued by the RIAA for downloading/sharing music via a P2P network. Well, “someone created a great parody blasting the RIAA for it’s actions”:http://nmc.siu.edu/~pepsi/
I say ‘The Matrix: Revolutions’ on Wednesday. I’ll see if I can post a review later (in short, I thought it was bad). For anyone needing a review of the 2nd movie I thought I’d share “a short cartoon review of ‘The Matrix: Reloaded’”:http://www.chud.com/graphics9/matrixspoof.jpg
I saw this on Friday but was too lazy to blog it. “The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers are going to be rereleased”:http://www.theonering.net/staticnews/1061560805.html in the two weeks prior to Return of the King. They are being rereleased in theyr 3+ hour director’s cut version! That’ll be a long movie but a very cool idea.
Here’s a German site that’s got a great collection of “new Lord of the Rings – The Return of The King photos”:http://www.herr-der-ringe-film.de/v2/de/news/news-detail_710.php. There’s about 21 new photos with descriptions on German (which doesn’t help me much) but it looks pretty cool!

Just saw this over at “Digital Theater”:http://www.dtheatre.com/read.php?sid=2106. The LOTR: “The Return of The King trailer”:http://www.lightsoutentertainment.com/movies/film.php?3 is available online.
From the ‘Someone has too much time on their hands’ dept comes, “The Matrix, Subtitled”:http://colofinder.net/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=album35 Over 125 screenshots from the original Matrix, adorned with humerous (usually) subtitles.

Slashdot’s got a link to “Gollum’s Acceptance Speach”:http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/08/1449202 from the MTV Awards recently. Very funny! (”Here’s a transcript”:http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=66879&cid=6143952)

“Phil Grahm”:http://www.themorningnews.org has a “great review”:http://www.themorningnews.org/archives/reviews/unloading_on_the_matrix_reloaded.shtml of what was wrong with ‘Reloaded’
Just say The Matrix Reloaded last night. Good movie. The part that impressed me the most wat what The Register talks about in “this article”:http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/55/30747.html. Trinity used a real exploit to break into a computer system! Finally hollywood display’s something accurately.
Mark the calendar. The ‘Special Edition’ DVD set for The Two Towers is coming out on November 18! (”link to slashdot article”:http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/04/23/2336203)

THe “CBBC”:http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/chat/hotseat/newsid_2853000/2853041.stm has a good interview with Andy Serkis of Gollum (Lord of the Rings) fame.
This is just too strange not to share. Somebody has too much time on their hands.
Here’s a couple cool shots showing how Andy Serkis played the part of Gollum in the Movie Lord of the Rings before Gollum was CG’d.
