Check out this photo that MovieWeb has posted of Tony Stark's GP racer from the set of ‘Iron Man 2’.What do you guys think of it?

20th Century Fox's "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" looks like it is posed to bring down Paramount's "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" this weekend at the box office.

The third "Ice Age" sequel brought in $13.8 million on its opening day.  It outperformed "Transformers 2's" S10.9 million.  Overall, its opening day is the biggest opening day for an animated movie in history, besting the $11.8 million of "Shrek 2" on May 19, 2004.

The Johnny Depp starring "Public Enemies" grossed $8.2 million on Wednesday as well.  This means that the "Transformers" sequel should face stiff competition.

It truly is not novel to have Crispin Glover playing an unhinged role, and having him play two characters who both fit that description is only repetitive.  This entire film – from the tired title to the oft recycled serial-killer plot devices – carries that powerful whiff of redundancy and you will wonder; does this smell like rotted ricotta or is it the stench of a gym bag forgotten in a car trunk?  What won’t have you wondering is why this mess was festering since 2006 waiting for a release date.  (A desperate attempt is made to highlight Blake Lively from “Gossip Girl” in the cast to drum up business, but don’t get excited Jason – she appears for nothing more than a couple of moments in a cameo at the end of things.)

We get introduced to five characters on a road trip that are clearly offered up as bait.  There is The Jock, The Priss, The Slut, and The Stoner, as well as the lone girl who is the clear logical thinker of the group, except for why she is hanging out with these zeros.  The crowd is heading out to a remote campground to “party with no rules” and they run into every indicator that they should just keep driving through to Branson, Missouri.  They see ghosts, encounter locals who warn them away, and then, after meeting Glover who plays both of a pair of mentally addled twins, they still feel it is a swell idea to camp out in this environment. 

Our sources, from deep within, have once again exclusively told NukeTheFridge.com a nice little tidbit involving the casting of an upcoming Marvel movie.  According to our source, Jessica Biel is in talks about joining the cast of "Thor."

Reportedly if cast, Biel will play the love interest of "Thor."  The most probable love interest for "Thor" would more than likely be "Jane Foster," a nurse and girlfriend of "Thor" alter ego Donald Blake.  But the problem is that our source was not sure of the character's name, but seemed to believe it was the same female character from the animated "Hulk vs Thor."  If that is the case, since "Jane Foster" was not in the animated movie, Biel is more than likely playing either "Amora, The Enchantress" or "Sif."  Those characters did appear in "Hulk vs Thor."  "The Enchantress" is a powerful sorceress who seeks to make Thor fall in love with her.  When Thor rejects her for "Sif," an Asgardian warrior whom Thor falls in love with, "The Enchantress" helps Loki in his plot against Thor.

Considering that all rumors say that the first "Thor" movie, directed by Kenneth Branagh, is dealing with the title character's time in Asgard and will not feature Donald Blake at all, or not until the very climax of the film, it is more likely that Biel would be either "Sif" or "The Enchantress."  Personally, I think she would make a great Enchantress.  What do you think?

Hey, all, Bobo_Vision here.  I caught the much anticipated world premiere of “Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl” at the New York Asian Film Festival, the latest by the director of “Tokyo Gore Police”, so here's my review.  Let me start by saying, this is one of the most racist movies I’ve ever seen, definitely the most racist one that I’ve seen in this century.  And now, on to the review – I’ll get back to the racism in a moment.

Those of you who have seen “Tokyo Gore Police” or have even heard of it know it created quite a sensation and has built up a cult following.  It was like a cross between Evil Dead and RoboCop, taking place in a violent future where society is under siege by mutants who can regenerate body parts as fleshy weapons, including a large penis gun, and a vagina like the mouth of a crocodile.  It was a gore-filled splatter flick that was loads of fun, and created a shared movie experience where you could sit with a theater full of people in awe of what you were seeing while thoroughly enjoying yourself.  So the packed theater of people waiting to see “Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl” were very excited, some commuting all the way from Pennsylvania to see it.  The director was in attendance and said a few words before the film, and held a Q&A afterwards.  During the foreword, director Yoshihiro Nishimura made a Michael Jackson joke, just the day after he died, and you could feel some of the goodwill leave the theater as a few groans were heard, but the majority of people laughed and applauded, because they came ready to see and hear all sorts of wild and offensive things.

 UPADATE: We have contacted Daniel Logan ( Young Boba Fett ) and he has NOT yet been ask to be involved with show.

Oh look! Now there's a rumor that the live action 'Star Wars' TV show is in production!!!

I found this over at scifiwire:

"Rumours about the pre-production of Star Wars, the live action series, to be shot in Australia, have been confirmed by several inside sources.

The quality and style of writing that will be used will be of the highest quality, and local, and writers will be sourced from outside traditional Science Fiction shows. Several big names within the Australian industry (including writers from the Award-winning Love My Way and the Award-winning Secret Life of Us) have been approached by Star Wars uber-producer, Rick McCallum.

Love My Way and Secret Life of Us can be characterised by the focus on relationships and emotional landscapes (traditional 'chick shows', if you will). Bringing this element into the world of Star Wars sees a marked departure of the final three films and animated Clone Wars, where the primary audience was children.

This throws the new series into a whole new spotlight, and should excite fans of the Star Wars universe looking towards

Thanks to MovieWeb, here’s an extended 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' clip. Lets hope this film lives up to it's expectations because so far this summer has given us more films that ‘Nuked the Fridge” then usual.

For what it's worth, our source from the set of Rob Zombie's "Halloween II" sequel just passed along the following piece of interesting information to us.  It seems that the entire movie is really just a dream sequence inside the mind of Michael Myers.  This would explain why Michael Myers walks around in the film smoking Cuban cigars. 

Supposedly this storyline was the excuse Zombie needed to bring his wife, Sheri Moon Zombie, back as Deborah Myers.

Variety is reporting that Sony has shifted the release dates for a couple of its upcoming movies.

The Adam Sandler led comedy, "Grown Ups" will move from March to June 25. 

Sony has also decided to shift the release date for the Seth Rogen starring "The Green Hornet."  That movie has been moved to July 9.

Both moves are seen as showing confidence in these films.  Sony obviously thinks they have a couple of hits on their hands.

Veteran actor Harve Presnell passed away Tuesday at age 75, due to complications with pancreatic cancer. 

Presnell was a bartitone singer who appeared in numerous musicals including "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" and "Annie."  Unfortunately, Presnell came along at a time when the movie musical was fading.  Otherwise he would have been a huge star.  Instead Presnell became a character actor, appearing in more than 60 film and television series.  He is best known for his roles in "Paint Your Wagon," "Fargo," and "Old School."

Harve Presnell is survived by his wife Veeva and his three children.  Our hearts go out to his family.

Our source has exclusively told NukeTheFridge.com about the cameo that Stan Lee will be playing in the upcoming sequel, "Iron Man 2."

Iron Man creator and Marvel comics legend, Stan Lee will be playing "Larry King" in "Iron Man 2."  Lee as "King" will interview Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) on "Larry King Live."   Stan Lee will be questioning Stark about his new, modified "black" Iron Man suit.

Our source has also told us that Stan Lee will be a hidden character in the upcoming video game, "Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2."  Stan Lee will play a senator in that game.

Remember you heard these scoops here at NukeTheFridge.com.   

Uncapie here with some extremely sad news.

Legendary Oscar and Emmy Award winning actor, Karl Malden has passed away at the age of 97.

Born Malden Sekulovich on March 22, 1912 in Chicago, Illinois, Mr. Malden was the quintessential actor that was the mainstay of many classic films who had worked with some of the greatest directors in the world such as John Ford, Elia Kazan, Henry Hathaway and Alfred Hitchcock.

A World War II veteran and semi-pro boxer, he married the love his life at 27 where they continued their marriage until his passing today for 70 years.

An amazing actor of great range, Mr. Malden appeared in over 70 films in  such classics as "The Gunfighter," "Baby Doll,"  "A Streetcar Named Desire," "On the Waterfront," "Fear Strikes Out," "The Halls of Montezuma,"  "One-Eyed Jacks,""How the West Was Won," "Bombers-B-52,"  "Ruby Gentry," "Phantom of the Rue Morgue," "The Birdman of Alcatraz," "Cheyenne Autumn," "The Cincinnati Kid,"  "Hotel," "Billion Dollar Brain(A personal favorite of mine where he played the wily, double-crossing 'Leo Newbigen.')," "Patton(As 'General Omar Bradley'.)," "The Wild Rovers" and co-starred in Alfred Hitchcock's, "I Confess."

Someone sent me this scoop.  I am not sure how legit it is. It's from a person that said he/she is close to the production of ‘Iron Man 2'. If all this is true, the following contains major 'Iron Man 2' spoilers:

“For the story on how Robert [Downey, Jr.] had to come in and save someone from evil robots well, in the scene, We are at the Tony Stark World's fair in New York and it is mainly a technology expo. Hammer technology is there too. All of a sudden there are "Drones" that fly in and attack the spectators. These drones were made from Tony Stark's Iron Man suit and they look very similar to his suit but the difference is that there is almost no head and the color is beige and silver. The "bad guy" has taken over these "drones" and he is making them attack the crowd.

Also Mickey Rourke will definitely be armored in his second battle because on Wednesday he had a scene where he had to do an evil walk. Mickey had on his same Whiplash costume(Whips and all), but this time he had the same tracking markers that Robert had when he was in the half suit, inside Randy's Donuts. The tracking markers will be used for the CGI that will make up crimson dynamo/ whiplash armor.

Also D.J AM. will have a cameo as a DJ in a scene that takes place at a club, where Tony Stark is celebrating his birthday. When Stark shows up in his alter-ego costume, all hell breaks loose). And I guess the music stops!? Or Stark busts a move to some acidic trance mega-mix!?”

Production Weekly is announcing that "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse," the third part in the popular teen vampire series will go into production on August 17, 2009. 

David Slade ("30 Days of Night") is set to direct.  Principal photography should wrap on Oct. 31, 2009, before the second film in the series is released.

The third film will see the return of series stars Robert Pattinson (Edward), Kristen Stewart (Bella) and Taylor Lautner (Jacob).

The New York Post this week had an exclusive where they found that the heads of NBC/Universal Group are getting very impatient with their Hollywood studio division.  Peter Lauria reported that the head, Jeffery Zucker was dispatching the corporate CFO, Lynn Calpeter from New York to Hollywood in order to look things over.  Sources inside the company state that the Studio boss Ron Meyer was going to have to suffer having his hand held, as well as explaining the projects that he has been green-lighting lately. 

This concern of Zucker’s has to stem largely from the failure of Universal’s summer tent-pole release, “Land of the Lost”, which has been in the pole position as this year’s biggest summer bomb.  The article states there have been differing opinions from those inside NBC/Universal what exactly Calpeter’s West Coast visit portends.  Some have said she regularly spends time at Universal, while others have declared that Meyer has had free reign in California and now Zucker has gotten nervous while looking at the bottom line.  As Lauria writes, even those sources downplaying the visit admit, “Universal is going through a tough patch, and Calpeter’s visit is longer than usual”, all because of Zucker’s concerns.
