Douchebag Screenwriter Hired To Pen The Movie I Wanted To Write
Slashfilm is reporting that probable douchebag, Mark Bomback, has been hired to write script for “The Umbrella Academy” movie. Based on the graphic novel scripted by “My Chemical Romance” frontman, Gerard Way and illustrated by Gabriel Ba, “The Umbrella Academy” is the story of a dysfunctional family of washed-up superheroes. It’s “The Royal Tenenbaums” meets “The Incredibles” (which I would have been perfect for!).

Wall-E Case Mod Looks Amazing
This post requires the obligatory Soviet Russia joke: In Soviet Russia, case mod makes you.
That didn’t quite work, although I imagine I’ll be doing that for all posts remotely related to Russia. Easy jokes are fun. Like easy girls, except without the STDs.
Anyway, check out this sweet Wall-E case mod. It’s really impressive when you realize the parts were all machined out of real metal. This isn’t so much a case mod as a complete case fabrication.
Love the cricket, too.
New Poster for ‘Where the Wild Things Are’
And we’ve got another poster for “Where the Wild Things Are.” Fun, but I preferred the earlier one with the kid. Something about that one felt more…real, whereas this one looks a lot more manufactured and “clean.”

Wes Anderson Loves Slow-Mo
Found over on kottke, Moving Image Source has put up the first in a five-part series of video essays on Wes Anderson and his influences. Not many would argue that he is one of the most imitated directors in recent years, and it’s interesting that his influences go beyond New Wave directors like Truffaut to Orson Welles and even “Peanuts” creator Charles Schulz.
‘Transformers 2’ Full Robot List Revealed
A list of the robots in Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen has been revealed courtesy of Yahoo! Movies and USA Today, along with a buncha photos from the new movie.
The first movie wasn’t anything I considered spectacular, but it was good fun, and we all know The Bay doesn’t under-deliver when it comes to explosions and things going boom.

Full Hangover Trailer Injuring Babies in HD!
The full theatrical trailer for Todd Phillips’ new bro-venture comedy, The Hangover, has now hit the ‘nets. And if the name Todd Phillips rings a bell, it’s because he directed Old School and Road Trip. Also, “Todd Phillips” is a very generic sounding name.

Nick Cage Loves Japan, Money.
It is a pretty well known fact that famous actors sometimes whore themselves out for a quick buck doing Japanese commercials. This would be pretty irrelevant if Japanese commercial directors were sane. But they’re not.
Did You Leak Wolverine? Fox Is Pirate Hunting!
A DVD-quality workprint of X-Men Origins: Wolverine leaked onto the internets yesterday. All of them. By now the tubes are being clogged with illegal downloads of this version, which supposedly lacks final SFX and numerous reshoots, but still probably contains most of the disappointment found in the trailer. Nikki Finke’s Deadline Hollywood is now reporting that Fox is releasing the sentinels to track down the alpha pirate.

Sweet Spider-Man Desktop
Over on Lifehacker, one if their loyal readers submitted their customized desktop that looks like nothing more than a comic panel at a quick glance. On a closer inspection though, he cleverly used the word bubbles to display system information like CPU usage and his To-Do List.
