Oogity Boogity? Er. News and shit!
Lets see…yesterday Casino Royale came out, the latest James Bond movie and first official MGM Bond movie based on that particular Ian Flemming book. However there was a previous non-MGM adaptation of Casino Royale that turned the book’s story into a comedy including Woody Allen as James Bond Jr.

Daniel Craig is the bond in this one, with blonde looks and stony attitude as in Layer Cake, which was directed by Guy Ritchie.

DOn’t know who the bond director guy is for this film, but I do now that the theme “You Know My Name” (something to that effect at least) is by the singer guy from Audioslave.

In other news theyre working on a Punisher movie sequel, the Iron Man movie seems to be continuing along in it’s pre-production process. OOOH OOH. That’s the thing. Favreau has confirmed the Mandarin as the villain. HELLS YEAH! Screw politically correctness, the Seven Rings of the Mandarin is the best kind of Iron Man villainly one can get. I mean besides Mandarin you got Titanium Man and Fing Fang Foom and that’s about it.

As much as I hate Ben Stiller and hate Robin Williams as everything but a standup comedian and a serious drama actor, there’s a family movie type comedy upcoming that actually looks pretty decent- Night at the Museum. Stiller plays a new night security gaurd at the New York City Museum of Natural History where the exhibits come to life at night. Robin Williams plays a wax dummy of Theodore Roosevelt.

Hmmm…Battlestar Galactica (new version) continues on Scifi, as does Doctor Who. As for shows already done getting replayed for the first time on other network, you’v got Threshold on the Scifi and Scrubs on the Comedy, both really good shows.

In December the miniseries Lost Room, about weirdness in the modern day with a sort of conspiracy theory superantural vibe, and the miniseries adaptation of Harry Dresden (a wizard PI in modern day Chicago where like in reality mnost people “think” the supernatural doesn’t exist, however in this world it really does) will be coming up.

Um..hm…

The Wii came out. Or is coming out. Or came out? Coming out? Something along that lines, soon.

PS3 will be out by christmas? I havent been paying attention, but that’s a lucky guess.

Hmm…

More good games for the DS have been coming out. Yggdra Union looks interesting. And if you havent picked up Contact, from the looks of it it’s a spiritual cousin to the Earthbound/Mother games.

That’s all for now, peace out my homies.
