KICK-ASS

As the publicity for the film gears up, Myspace Trailer Park has a new poster for the film.

SMALLVILLE

Michael Ausiello at Entertainment Weekly says the JSA two-parter will now air as a single "Smallville" movie airing January 29. "According to "Smallville" insiders, CW execs felt they could get more mileage out of combining them," says Ausiello.

Starring Rain, release date: November 25th, 2009

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD

HIS SOUL IS STILL DANCING

Continuing yesterday's theme of movies I'm excited about, I cannot wait to see "Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans." While not comic related, it combines the forces of director Werner Herzog and actors Nicholas Cage and Val Kilmer, all of whom should be comic book characters. It'll be in a limited release in a couple of weeks. Meanwhile, if any of you in the great, wide Internet discover something awesome, disheartening, let us know! Take credit, come up with a clever nickname, or go anonymous. The choice is yours. Fresh rumors and movie news every weekday morning. I am Erik Amaya bracing for the future threat of Nicholas Cage.
