Seriously Mattel's WWE are amazing. The sculpts are just amazing and rather than being bloated 7" monstrosities that Jakks produced these are Inline with the much loved 6 inch range. So if a wrestler is billed at 6ft 4" then the figure comes out at 6.4"....ok i'll shut up now

Yeah he should have been number 3 FFS im so blind!! Number 1 was Trapjaw. Still that Mark Henry is a superb figure and was the hardest one to find seeing as i sold two on the bay for £20 each

Im all about WWE for 2011. dunno why, i dont watch wwe LOL just like the figs

Yeah it's been so much better since RTD left & the classics are ace

I can't see it getting another series .

Really?funnily enough i havent watched it since RTD left. Gonna have to get back into it.

I reckon it will but just one more. Scored very high ratings (according to Digital SPy at least) so fingers crossed.

I just watched Scott pilgrim. THat film is beyind brilliant and in the realm of big pile of shi...err I mean genius fucking loved every minute of it!!

It's a lot better imo, not bashing RTD he did some good stuff but I'm feeling Moff's take more & there are less annoying chavs

The problem is with advertisers not wanting to be associated with it irregardless of the ratings, L'Oreal & Nestle have pulled ads from 4OD because of it.

Yeah you're right. And I also forgot the BTTF figures won't be ready 'til '12. Fuck.
Well, if all goes to plan and if they figure out how the hell to sell passes without their site crashing...then maybe I'll get to comiccon this year and see what both lines look like.

And yeah I love Scott Pilgrim. If you've never read the books you should pick up all the volumes. I got all 6 on amazon for around $20!

Oh yesh, I has the pilgrim comics, despite not being a fan of the art I really dug the comic!!

Will you give me £4 if I don't like it?

I can give you a half eaten sandwhich is that OK?

Yeah that'll do.

I saw that dude in Youth in Revolt and hated it . It really put me off watching him in anything else.

Honestly, I had given up on Michael Cera after so many movies where he's basically played the same mumbly akward character he did in Superbad.
And I had first had reservations about him playing Scott Pilgrim...but trust me - he fits the part, and he even shows some range in this one!

Brandon Routh is a scene stealer, too. I swear if he doesn't come back as Superman it'll be a big mistake on Snyder's part!

Agreed Gol he plays the part perfectly. I do like Michael Cera. Some actors tend to just be able to play just certain parts and although he pretty much does play a similar role in this film he does add some arrogance to it which works even better. couple those two factors together and i reckon he'll go a bit longer.

Again, i couldnt agree more on Routhe he was brilliant in is cameo but alas they are casting someone else for the part of superman unfortuneately which i think is wrong!

Oh, I remember what I'm looking forward to most this year...THE MUPPETS!

The guys that did Forgetting Sarah Marshall are making a new Muppet movie and it's coming out this Thanksgiving!
Screw Cap & Thor, I'm looking forward to this more than anything else this year!!




Just seeing this pic makes me giddy as fuck! Glad to see they're using old school Muppets.

The new guy holding the phone is Walter, I think he's voiced by Paul Rudd.

Check this out:

Quote :

Here’s the updated plot synopsis:
On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world’s biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets’ former stomping grounds. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino house band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate. With secret, signature, celebrity cameos that include Zach Galifianakis, Jack Black, Robin Williams, Ricky Gervais, Emily Blunt, Alan Arkin, Jean Claude Van Damme and more.
The Muppets hits the big screen Nov. 23, 2011.

There's also a rumour of a drum solo duel between Animal & Dave Grohl.
Lady Gaga's supposedly in it, too
This is gonna Kick. Major. ASS!

My nipples seriously got erect!! The story (apart from the cliched oil story) sound cool, especially the part about animal LOL

Can't wait, the last Muppet film sucked ass

I love the muppets, I've got loads of Muppets DVDs and figures. Yeah those made for TV films were shit. The new one sounds a lot better.

It'll be fun seeing Chris Cooper as the oil tycoon, though. I heard they tried to get Daniel Day Lewis to riff on his "There Will Be Blood" character but he said no.

The last one I saw was Muppet Treasure Island. I liked it, but still not nearly as good as the older ones.
I didn't see the one in space or the Christmas Carol. I imagine Disney neutered the fuck out of them. Plus I can't stand Pepe or the reggae dude. I swear they're like the fucking Jar Jars of the Muppet gang.

Muppets in space is pretty good. Pepe is in that quite a bit at the beginning so you might not enjoy it. I hate Scooter he's completely and utterley pointless.

IMF you ARE a muppet

Since Disney took the muppets, they lost their balls and became a neutered hollow husk of their former selves

Thanks, I like it when you say nice things.

I've got on the Animal slippers I got for Xmas
