Did you know that Mark Strong is going to play Sinestro in the upcoming Green Lantern movie? Because Mark Strong is going to play Sinestro in the Green Lantern movie, which is EXTREMELY EXCITING. I hate to be all DC biased and everything but MARK STRONG GREEN LANTERN MOVIE EEEEEE.
I refuse to admit that the prospect of Ryan Reynolds wearing essentially body paint has anything at all to do with it.
Oh, and when I brought up the Green Lantern movie, my brother informed me that a lot of his classmates were puzzled that the Green Lantern in the movie wasn't a black guy. That makes me a bit happy. Though I will be a touch disappointed if John Stewart isn't in this movie, at least tangentially.
Two other brief points:
1. Rango is a rather charming Spaghetti Western pastiche with really good voice work, a fantastic Ennio Morricone-style score, and some beautiful animation, and I quite recommend it, particularly if you're a fan of Westerns.
Although it's pretty sad that I'm able to pick out Bill Nighy's voice, while he's using a different accent, solely by the way he pronounces his vowels. I need to get out more.
2. The first Transformers movie is on ABC right now. My mother has insisted we keep it on because she likes it, because she likes the CGI and she finds Frenzy cute.
I'm not even sure what to do with this.

I've heard rumors that they're planning on setting it up so that Guy, John, and Kyle can appear in sequels. I'm not sure if that means they're planning on having cameo appearances by any of them or not, but it's something at least.

And while I'm dreaming a Martian Manhunter movie and a pony and a plastic rocket would be nice too.

But at some point, Mark Strong is going to play a "nice' character, right?
To me. Bill Nighy's Rango voice sounded EXACTLY like his Davy Jones voice.
I love the first Transformers, it tricked me into thinking I'd like the second.

Oh thank goodness it's not just me. Because any time he ended a word in a vowel sound it was exactly the same thing - that same "-ah" carryover at the end there. I'm glad someone else saw it and I'm not needlessly obsessive.
Better Frenzy than Wheelie, anyway. >__>

Why don't the DC movies cater to our fannish needs again? I don't understand.
