The latest Empire magazine features two covers from Zack Snyder’s Watchmen adaptation, one of which presumably required Billy Crudup to get a bikini wax. His character was created using motion capture CG though, so how much of that is his actual crotch is debatable.  I’m not sure what’s hotter, the thought that I’m seeing Billy Crudup’s actual crotch bulge, or a sweaty basement full of Korean teenagers lovingly animating Billy Crudup’s dick bulge.  Oh boy, daddy needs a cold shower.Scintillating bonus footage from Comic-Con

Ever wanted to see Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, and Hugo Weaving work with the director of Hidalgo and Jumanji?  Yeah, me neither, but fuck you, here’s some Wolf Man footage from Comic Con (opening April 2009).

I don’t get what’s up with his claws.  Wolves don’t have claws. Wolves have paws with little fingernails that at worst might scratch up your hardwood.  This looks more like a bear man than a wolf man. I saw a movie about a bear man once.  It had this really hairy gay guy doing unspeakable things to the well-hung high school quarterback.  But I have to admit, it was terrifying.

It appears that Freddie Prinze Jr. has retired from acting, at least temporarily, after… wait for it… landing a gig as a writer for the WWE.  A moment of silence while I light a candle and pop in my Summer Catch DVD, please.

"Bringing on board an experienced Hollywood writer, actor and producer like Freddie Prinze, Jr. will only increase the level of entertainment to millions of viewers and passionate WWE fans every Monday on USA," said Chris McCumber, Executive Vice President, Marketing Digital & Brand Strategy, USA Network.

Prinze has already worked with the WWE as a blogger with their Fan Nation site, and is a reportedly a huge fan of the WWE, which doesn’t surprise me. He’s always seemed like the kind of guy that sleeps in a racecar bed.  They should do a cage match between him and Ryan Seacrest, both in their Spider-Man underwear, winner gets the loser’s Fruit Roll-ups.  Loser has to kiss a girl on the mouth.

Hulk Hogan is taking a break from raising his horrible idiot children to star alongside Kimbo Slice in the 3-D action-adventure Kung Fu U.  Don’t quote me on this, but I think the "U" might have a double meaning.

The plot for the film sounds pretty standard. A bunch of well off nerd kids get sent to a special boarding school by their parents where Kimbo and Hulk are the self defense instructors who will teach them to kick ass. [Movie Blog]

If your solution to any of your child’s problems is to send them to live with a pro-wrestler and a giant hairy black guy, your kid’s probably gonna get molested, I mean I’m just sayin.  But I’m sure this will be great for Kimbo’s career.  In the world of cagefighting, it’s showing your kid-friendly side that really separates the superstars from the wannabes.  

In a decision which I can only assume was based on the number of times a day Howard Stern hears, "Hey, you know who you look like? Joey Ramone," Stern is producing a remake of the 1979 Ramones classic Rock ‘n’ Roll High School, along with Larry Levinson. Stern has hired Alex Winter to write the script. And yes, that’s the same Alex Winter who played Bill in Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure and Marco in Lost Boys.

The only reason I can see for hiring Winter is if Stern thinks he still has access to that time machine telephone booth thingie, because the only good thing about the original Rock ‘n’ Roll High School was that the Ramones were in it, and all the original members are dead. I mean, I guess they could point the camera at grafitti that says "fun" and zoom in and out again.  That was pretty cool.

Maybe in the new one Good Charlotte can teach kids that drugs are bad and Jesus is cool with the help of eyeliner, ProTools, and a good publicist.
