M.C. Hampster writes "[0]Fox News is reporting in this [1]article that
Superman is back in the planning stages at Warner Bros. with a possible
[2]Keanu Reeves playing the title role. Is this possibly the worse fit
for an actor in a superhero role since Michael Keaton in Batman?" Perhaps
they too will rotate in a new actor for each feature.

[0]farrellj writes "According to [1]this CBC story it seems that De Niro
is looking for the next 'A Beautiful Mind, Memento or Good Will Hunting.'
The script must have a scientist, mathematician or engineer as the lead
charactor...And a finished script with synopsis and writer's resume must
be in by Nov. 1. Submission info in the CBC story above. Now, who is
writing the 'Cowboy Neal saves the world' script? "

kiddailey writes "What do you get when you [0]combine standard Lego
bricks with Lord of the Rings? A really cool version of [1]Bag End that
would make any LOTR and Lego geek as happy as Smeagol with a stomach full
of fisheses. If only I could be so creative... or have so much spare
time. Be sure to check out [2]his whole gallery of cool lego builds."
