Penis biting snakes, flipping golf carts, and pooing in a plumbing store. If these things interest you, then Jackass 2.5 is your DVD.

Don’t you feel like you’ve been here before? How many times can we take a half-baked movie centered around a semi-pro sport? How many times can a bully be defeated in order to save a girl and earn back the pride of a chubby hero? How many times can we really watch a film about ping pong? I know what your saying, “But Josh, I love ping pong. I always watch it at 3 am when I’m drunk and laying next to a woman… well I think she’s usually a woman”. Ultimately though, that’s how Balls of Fury would best be taken in… totally drunk.

Okay, I promised more JLA rumors and I never fail. IESB has a snoop over at the studios and seem to be getting an incredible amount of detail about the movie and how it’s being forced through, due to an impending strike. I wont spoil the actual story in the article, so you can scroll down if you want to read script notes and someone DYING in the movie!!!!

Where is Carmen Sandiego could have been one of the most formative franchises ever. I would wreck on 5th grade Geography because Carmen would always be hiding in Cairo, Egypt. But, why has it translated to music, TV, and other pop culture but not movies? Mostly that the people who write the movies, are monkeys with typewriters. I firmly believe this is one of the biggest ball drops since The Oregon Trail stopped getting made.

I’m a 24-year-old guy sitting behind the computer I paid for — I realize that other than the occasional episode of Rocco’s Modern Life that I see, I really have gotten past the childhood I had. Occasionally I go back to the nostalgia of seeing my He-Man set, and Castle Greyskull, or the GI Joe hovercrafts. I have a few Lion-o minis in moving boxes, but that’s the extent. Why can’t we be happy with that? No, you just can’t, can you?

First, today news broke that Brandon Routh may stay Superman, but wouldn’t agree to JLA at the moment. Now on the denial bandwagon is Christian Bale. In talking to the boys and girls at IESB, he came out with a very flat and meaningful quote. After saying not only he wouldn’t do JLA, but he’s not even been approached about it.

Batman, Superman, Thundercats, JLA, now we’re talking the Flash. Apparently, IGN has an exclusive interview with Ryan Reynolds from the debut of the movie, The Nines in which he, in no uncertain terms, makes clear that he is definitely involved… somehow.

There seems to be a glut at the top of the Comic movies as of late, and it seems we’re on a crash course with another one? Why does this matter to me you ask? There is more money to be made, and production companies want their fingers in as much as they can. There has been talks of a Wonder Woman movie, Aquaman TV show, and everyone knows The Green Lantern.
