FailBlog - Mascot Fail
I have wanted to post this for a long time but it is notoriously hard to find these days due to copyright issues.
Here it is for a limited time, I'm sure.

Blast From The Past, Bitches--Thunderdome
I once met a girl who REALLY loved Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. I should have married that girl.
'Ninja Assassin' training video.
What we have here is over five minutes of training and stunt choreography for the new Wachowski Bros (The Matrix) movie 'Ninja Assassin'. Only The Wachowski's would make a movie named 'Ninja Assassin'...and that's why it's awesome.
So apparently this is how you train to be a ninja...

Producers Guild Nominations
Pay attention because these are important. 99% of the time, the movies that are chosen by the Producers Guild wind up as Best Picture nominees. The winner--statistically--will win Best Picture.
1. The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button - Voters love the whole 'Extraordinary man, extraordinary life' bit.
2. The Dark Knight - It's hard to find someone who didn't love The Dark Knight but it makes you wonder if the voting academy can get past the fact that it's a Batman movie.
3. Milk - Although Milk was only as good as Sean Penn's performance, the subject matter is socially relevent and important.
4. Frost/Nixon - Two powerful performances; if I were a betting man I'd bet on Frank Langella for Best Actor this year.
5. Slumdog Millionaire - Another Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, 28 Days Later) masterpiece about the never-ending quest for true love. This flick is genuine and guaranteed to make you smile.
There are two definite wild cards out there...
1. DOUBT - Loaded (somesay overloaded) with strong performances, Doubt has landed a ton of Golden Globe nominations including Actor, Actress, Director, and Picture. Add all of this to the fact that the Academy loves (repeat LOVES) Meryl Streep and will nominate her for anything, and you've got a Best Picture Nomination.
2. WALL-E - Arguably the best Pixar movie--some would argue it's the best Disney movie since their Little Mermaid rebirth in 1989. This has already been picked by Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago Critics Associations as their Best Movie Of The Year. It's a shoe-in for Best Animated Feature, but with any luck it'll slip in for Best Picture.

Iron Man 2 Villians
Jon Favreau has just cast Mickey Rourke (Sin City, The Wrestler) and Sam Rockwell (Choke, Frost/Nixon) as the dual enemies of Tony Stark in Iron Man 2. Rourke will play a Russian soldier that will become the Crimson Dynamo--basically an evil Iron Man. Rockwell will play Justin Hammer, billionaire and professional rival of Stark.
