As I pointed out in my original review, the only sense the ending of the Incredible Hulk made was as a setup for a sequel.  In a recent interview with MTV, Iron Man writers Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby (best. name. ever.) say the plan is to make Hulk the villain in an Avengers movie.

“I hope ‘The Avengers’ embraces that,” Fergus said of having the Hulk as misunderstood baddie. “You don’t want like 10 super-badass good guys fighting together. Where’s the fun in that? Let’s break it off a little. Friends or colleagues [Dammit, Thor, did you finish those TPS reports? -Ed.] who become enemies is always an interesting thing because you know it’s based on love and friendship and that’s always the worst thing to have turn bad — is someone you actually care about and someone you actually believe in.”
“I personally like when good-guy characters have to fight each other,” he went on. “Good guys going against good guys who both believe in an issue is way more interesting than a villain clearly into evil and I like when former friends become committed enemies.”

It’s funny, sometimes I’m tempted to weigh in on how I feel about which superheroes should fight each other. And then I remember I’m not seven.  To make this interesting I say they make the Hulk a closeted homosexual.  “Why’d you turn into the Hulk, Bruce?  We were just hanging out all calm when Tony Stark came out of the shower in a towel and… hey, wait a second…”

After Afghanistan banned The Kite Runner and the studio delayed production while the stars basically ran for their lives because of a fictional rape scene, I can’t imagine the Muslims are gonna be thrilled about this latest news.

First Run Features has acquired U.S. theatrical and DVD rights to "A Jihad for Love," the first doc to explore the lives of gay Muslims.

"Jihad," which preemed at the Toronto fest and is set to unspool in the Panorama section at Berlin, was filmed on many continents, often in secret, because many local governments would not sanction the filming.  [Variety]

I know the gays are supposed to be all flamboyant and stuff, but I’m pretty sure if I was a muslim and a gay I’d be walking around with a burqa on, talking in a high-pitched voice all day.  Getting my dome chopped off in the town square wouldn’t be my idea of “giving head”, you know what I’m saying? Ha ch-cha-cha-cha!  *sad trombone sounds* 

In case you were looking for a way to make lacrosse gayer (and, frankly, I didn't think it was possible), take a hint from this clip from Solarbabies.

Kathy Griffin had her award speech cut from the pre-taped Emmy awards telecast for making the following statement:

"A lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus.  Suck it, Jesus. This award is my god now."

Wow, that's shocking.  I mean, Kathy Griffin won an Emmy?  I didn't even know she was on TV.  

But since this is a movie blog, I must report that Kathy Griffin will be appearing the the 2008 movie Dixie's, about a cabaret, alongside Andy Dick, Janice Dickinson, and Margaret Cho.  You know who'll be happy about that?  The gays.  

^{Watch the Feast of Love music video thingie} 

I don't get it; this was posted in the movie trailers section on Apple, but it looks less like a movie trailer and more like the worst music video I've ever seen.  Tits and fire? Nope, sensitive folk singer and Morgan Freeman – he has freckles! 

And please people, don't be too harsh on Mr. Sensitive here.  When you have a busy schedule of writing songs and staring pensively at the floor, it's hard to find time for things like haircuts, shaving, and not eating easy cheese straight from the can.
