He is the blood spatter analyst we love to watch murder people. He stabs his way into his victims… and our hearts. Of course, I am talking about DEXTER! That’s right, our favorite serial killer-killer is coming back to Showtime this fall, and is bringing a famous Hollywood son into the mix.
Colin Hanks (Mad Men, The Good Guys), the son of Tom Hanks (Forest Gump, the guy who made BFFs with a Volleyball), is joining the cast of Dexter for Season 6. His character details were kept under tighter wraps than Dexter’s victims up until one website leaked some information. According to TV Somniac, Hanks will be playing Travis, Dexter’s main nemesis: a highly intelligent expert on ancient artifacts who gets linked to a series of grisly murders in Miami.
So the trailer for Horrible Bosses is out and my boss needed an excuse to post the above picture
Admittedly, a bit underwhelmed by the trailer, as it seems a lot more formulaic in terms of comedies. But then I thought about Kevin Spacey being a douche, Jennifer Aniston fellating foods, and a Colin Farrell combover. I’m still willing to get a bit excited for it, because it just looks fun.
And Charlie Day just needs more play, right?
Although not to go back and forth between good and bad, I just saw Brett Ratner is a producer. NOOOOO!!!!! YOU KILLED CYCLOPS!!! HOW DARE YOU WORK AGAIN!!!!
First off, I want to see a photoshop of De Vito with T-Rex arms hugging the Terminator. I digress though because yeah, that’s right, according to FilmDrunkTwins 2 is out there for the taking and apparently 6 Fast 6 Furious: Terminator Boogaloo isn’t the only sequel being offered to the Governator. Well, before we get into this, let’s just sit on this idea for a second.
Okay, now that we’ve thought about this, because I am not inebriated nor on any sort of hallucinogen, I can’t think of a comprehensible way to reintroduce this sequel. I have a better time selling Miley Cyrus as the next Sarah Conner (picture it then immediate fetal position crying). But then again, I never put anything past Hollywood these days and I’m sure someone will crank out an idea that may be absolutely ridiculous by nature, but due to product placement, tax credits in Vancouver, and a little bit of soul selling to the devil, we’ll have a screenplay in about two weeks with a green light in a month. Ugh. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll still watch it. But it’s because I’m pot committed to any Arnold movie. At least that’s how I justify watching Junior and Jingle All the Way.
Regardless, this isn’t even the real news of the story. According to FilmDrunk and the Hollywood Reporter, Cry Macho apparently will be the first thing the we see newly-separated Schwarzenegger in at the movie theater. He will play a washed out horse trainer that decides to kidnap his old boss’s son from his ex-wife, only to find out that the ex-wife does not want the kid back. They end up getting chased by the Federales and start bonding.
So it’s Seabiscuit mixed with A Perfect World, and maybe a dash of Dutch? Fair enough then. I do think it’s interesting that he’ll choose this over the action flicks he has in the pipeline, as if to say that he’s a versatile actor and will take any role, action or dramatic and can still pull it off. I still don’t know what to make of this, and if anything it makes me want to watch A Perfect World again…
None of the shows being canceled are surprising considering the ratings were never there to begin with. If we had to be surprised on a show, it might have been The Chicago Code, because it was a universally liked show and as a midseason replacement, Fox might give it another shot but alas, it was not meant to be. Personally, I never got into Lie to Me or Human Target.
With Breaking In, it looks to see Christian Slater continues in his failed conversion to television. Maybe that will open the door to Kuffs 2. Maybe a Hollow Man 3. I did like Traffic Light though but not necessarily enough to complain about it being canceled. Although it wouldn’t be as awesome as The Wizard 2.
As for the replacements for the fall lineup, Fox has announced a few including a Bones spinoff called The Finder, which was based off an episode that aired earlier this season. It stars Geoff Stults, the dude with the sailor vows in Wedding Crashers. He’s also from Detroit, so Kronner will probably watch it now because of loyalty to the D ,and his odd affection for Bones. [
The next J.J. Abrams drama – Alcatraz will also be on the fall slate, with comedies I Hate My Teenage Daughter starring Jaime Pressly…
That’s a lot of hipster going on the Fox fall slate. Personally, I’d like a television adaptation of Broken Arrow. We need to get Christian Slater some work! He can reunite with newly unemployed Chicago Code star Delroy Lindo!
Welcome to the first edition of the Urban 30 Weekly Update here at Grizzly Bomb, and it’s something I’m definitely excited to bring you. For those of you that don’t know, The Urban 30 is a superhero blog that tells the story of a team of superheroes based in DC (the city, not the comics), with each character brought to you by a different writer with their own style and strengths.
The everyday lives, loves, friends and enemies of these heroes are covered every day of the week. The sky is the limit when it comes to the type of stories featuring the different members of the team. Back at Action News I started the weekly (sometimes monthly) update and I really enjoyed summing up the week for everybody, so I’m going to keep doing it here. If for no other reason than I love to shamelessly self promote anything I am involved with.
If I thought that Real Steel looked pretty horrible before, paint me excited after this latest trailer release. It revealed a little more story and more importantly a lot more robots beating the crap out of each other. And all these robots do is beat the crap out of each other, not like the Transformers who talk then fight and then talk some more. The scenes we see in here are total robot slug-fests, and they look sweet.
The movie stars Hugh Jackman as a retired ex-boxer in a world where the fights now happen between robots in the ring. I know if that happened right now I’d love that a lot more than watching these crappy boxing matches we are served nowadays and I absolutely refuse to get into UFC. The movie also stars Evangeline Lilly whom I haven’t seen a trace of since Lost, so that’s a plus. There is also child actor, Dakota Goyo, who is not the typical annoying variety of child actor. He also has one small part from a recent hit under his belt in the form of Thor, where he played the young version of the God of Thunder himself. But enough of my babbling, check out the trailer:
I’ll be there in October to see how this movie pans out. I’ve always enjoyed Hugh Jackman, even when he was in a movie that destroyed Wolverine for me, but he’ll have the chance to turn it around in the sequel. Real Steel will have to hold us over until then.
He is the blood spatter analyst we love to watch murder people. He stabs his way into his victims… and our hearts. Of course, I am talking about DEXTER! That’s right, our favorite serial killer-killer is coming back to Showtime this fall, and is bringing a famous Hollywood son into the mix.
