I just remembered; you know how they remade Knightrider into a TV movie so they could turn it into a TV series? Well, they’re doing the same thing to Ten Things I Hate About You. It has the same Dad, but otherwise, all new cast. The girl who plays Kat is in a popular Nickelodeon TV series and the guyplaying Patrick is the grandson of Gregory Peck. Now, while it’s been getting publicity because it’s his grandson, I don’t think people will see it. It was Julia Stiles’ breakout, but it was Heath Ledger’s Hollywood breakout film, too.

Taylor Lautner is definitely playing Jacob in New Moon. There were some doubts, but it has been confirmed. Ben Barnes (aka Prince Caspian in tha last Narnia movie) wants to play Aro.

Speaking of confirmed, so has a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Now there are all sort of rumours as to who will be in it. There was a minor Robert Pattinson rumour, but there was a bigger rumour that Russell Brand would play Jack’s brother.

Well, Teresa Palmer is doing well for herself. She started getting attention as Melody in 2:37. She then got noticed in the Grudge 2 and December Boys, being Daniel Radcliffe’s first on-screen kiss (although Order of the Phoenix came out before December Boys). More recently, there was Restraint/Guests/Ravenswood and Bedtime Stories. Now, she’s in the latest Just Jeans fashion campaign, has finished Young Americans/Kids in America (with Topher Grace from That 70’s Show) and has two or three movies in the works and is appearing in magazines more frequently. Nice work. Although the poor thing has had people spreading rumours about her love life even though she’s not really big yet, saying she’s going out with co-stars from pretty much each of her movies. Hopefully, it’ll get better for her.

The song Decode by Paramore (responsible for the song Misery Business) featuring as the song for the Twilight soundtrack featuring clips from the movie in the film clip (funnily enough, the song isn’t actually in the movie) is doing supremely well. It’s a good song, but the fact that it’s for Twilight has made it bigger.

Okay, let’s see. Emily Blunt is going to play Black Widow in the next Iron Man movie. As everyone knows, Don Cheadle is replacing Terrence Howard as Rhodey. Mickey Rourke is playing Whiplash. Samuel L Jackson might not be in the sequel like everyone originally thought. Tim Robbins is still a rumour, but Sam Rockwell has been confirmed as Justin Hammer. The fans for some reason have been wanting/keep mentioning the Mandarin (who was apparently indirectly referenced in the first) and Crimson Dynamo.

Rachel Weisz looks like she’ll be nabbing the role of Catwoman in the next Batman movie. Rumours of the Riddler are rife, with names like Johnny Depp and David Tennant (yeah, the latter is an oooooold rumour).

More cast members confirmed for the Tim Burton version of Alice in Wonderland. We already knew Australian Mia Wasikowska (In Treatment TV Series, Defiance, Rogue) would be Alice, that Johnny Depp would be the Mad Hatter (not exactly surprising) and Helena Bonham Carter will be the Red Queen. Well, since then, this is what has been confirmed:

• Anne Hathaway – the White Queen
• Michael Sheen (Underworld, Frost/Nixon) - the Cheshire Cat
• Alan Rickman – Caterpillar (he’d be pretty good in that role)
• Crispin Glover (Charlie’s Angels) – the Knave of Hearts
• Matt Lucas (Little Britain) – Tweedledee and Tweedledum

Other cast members include Christopher Lee (unknown character), Frances de la Tour (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire; she will play Aunt Imogen) and Eleanor Tomlinson (while in a couple of small things and had a small role in The Illusionist as the younger version of Jessica Biel’s character, she’s best known for Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging. She’ll be playing Fiona Chataway).

Kristen Bell’s been busy. She’s got SIX movies in the works. One is Astro Boy. I’m really hoping they’ll release Fanboys out here soon. There might even be a Veronica Mars movie, if we’re lucky.

I’ll post more movie news later.

Yes, I know, I haven’t posted lately. Well, I’ve been getting social. Anyway, I saw Marley and Me with friends and it was good. Jennifer Aniston was especially good.

Okay, music. Um, I’m really liking the song You Found Me by The Fray. Nat Bassingthwaighte’s song Someday Soon is fairly good. Oh, My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson is awesome! Others to check out are Miss Independent by Ne-Yo and Please Don’t Leave Me by Pink.

Recently saw Jurassic Park and it’s full of suspense. I love it. We’ve got out Lost World (Jurassic Park 2) and Jurassic Park 3, so I should see them. The Bank Job is well done (Jason Statham and Saffron Burrows are in it). I recently saw a new Ice Age 3 trailer involving a female squirrel which is funny. Another movie I’ve just watched on DVD for the first time is Soapdish. My Grandma had it and she doesn’t watch the same movies often, so she gave us a few and that was one. It is funny as Hell.

Yes, I’m back. My email account got hacked into by people trying to scam everyone on my contact list for money. I’ve lost nearly all the weight I’ve put on over Christmas and New Year (quite impressive). I tried on a dress not made for people with boobs and so it got stuck. Looking forward to the movies coming out this year. Back at the gym. Yep.
