Apr. 15th, 2011 10:55 pm1. Wait, so no one mentioned that Fright Night is being remade with a scheduled release of this summer? And Colin Farrell, David Tennent, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and Anton Yelchin are involved?? I am tentatively excited about this. Fright Night was one of *the* movies of my childhood (I thank WPIX for replaying this, Firestarter, and The Howling over and over again during the summer). Good times.
2. A Game of Thrones is premiering this Sunday on HBO. Sort of "meh" on this one, probably because my disappointment in the later books in the series is seeping through. The reviews seem to be positive and state that all the violence and sex and political machinations are alive and well. Uhm, guess that's okay? Just give me some Jon Snow and I'll be okay.
And Aidan Gillen is playing Littlefinger. AND how did I forget Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister. Okay, I'm in.
3. Speaking of actors in A Game of Thrones, does anyone think Jason Momoa is getting tired of being cast as the barbarian/warrior type? He's cast as Khal Droga in Thrones and he's staring as the title character in the Conan motion picture remake due this summer. Or is he just happy to be making enough money to pay this bills?
4. I'm not going to front: I'm looking forward to the Thor movie next month. The commercials have slow-mo hammer action! Hair flowing in the wind! Cameos from S.H.I.E.L.D. agents! And stuff getting blown up real good. Can't ask for more than that.
5. Still loving on Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World v. v. hard. Also, the video game continues to garner brownie points.
