Gay Hutts, Franco's Fake Penis and Feldman's Bastardly Denial

Plus Bees swarm MGM and Downey doesn't get 'The Dark Knight'

Welcome to another batch of worthless yet seemingly entertaining batch of movie news/rumor stories that keep the blogosphere alive and well.

We begin with a massive swarm of bees huddling over and around their queen at MGM Tower in Century City. Bzzzzzz.

Next we have a quote from Robert Downey Jr. with regard to The Dark Knight that I am sure will gain the respect of many but will also set the actor in the sites of many a fanboy. Oh the line is drawn between Iron Man and Batman:

"My whole thing is that that I saw 'The Dark Knight'. I feel like I'm dumb because I feel like I don't get how many things that are so smart. It's like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and script writing and I'm like, 'That's not my idea of what I want to see in a movie.' I loved 'The Prestige' but didn't understand 'The Dark Knight'. Didn't get it, still can't tell you what happened in the movie, what happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy. I'm like, 'I get it. This is so high brow and so fucking smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.' You know what? Fuck DC comics. That's all I have to say and that's where I'm really coming from."

Speaking of Downey, here is a clip of him from his first film called Pound in 1970. He was 7-years-old and in the clip he asks, "Have any hair on your balls?" Good question if you ask me.

More pictures of the Tom Cruise flick Valkyrie are online. People are still calling his character a Nazi Colonel even though Stauffenberg and his conspirators were attempting to remove Hitler and the Nazi Party from power in Germany. I guess it is a thin line, and perhaps technically accurate, but it doesn't exactly support the story being told.

We also have a first look at Prince Caspian in Dorian Gray as Dorian Gray, but since he is white I think it may be racist.

James Franco puts his fake penis in Milk with Sean Penn and according to Franco they "did this scene, where we're both dancing and we're naked, and we both have prosthetic penises." Sounds like a wild ride, and to think I turned down a test screening her in Seattle. This is Oscar cock gold!

I never even heard of a rumor involving Corey Feldman and Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Bastards and I guess there was good reason since Feldman doesn't even seem to know about it either.

Brett Ratner wants to produce a Mother's Day remake (it's a horror film). Meanwhile Darren Bousman is said to want to make a Leprechaun remake and then he squashes that rumor only hours later.

Apparently Zero the Hutt is gay in the new Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which would explain the makeup and the fact that he doesn't say, "Hee hee, ho, ha jabba do wocky, babba doe." I wondered what was going on there.

Joss Whedon sorta squashes all the Serenity 2 rumors saying, "The rumors are there because people really wish it would happen." What? That doesn't prove anything? Well he also called it an "improbable fantasy" too. So, does that help?
