This Week In Links

I’ve been in a movie-watching mood lately. I saw Grindhouse last Saturday (which was hella-awesome, and deserved a bigger payday at the box office. Stop giving Will Ferrell money, people), then saw 300 a few days after that (also amazing, but millions of you already know that.) Tonight I’m going to the Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters. I’ll probably be one of the few people over the age of 22 seeing the movie, but I don’t care. I love me some [adult swim].
Here’s This Week In Links, for Friday, April 13, 2007:
USA Today has a first look at Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway in their spy gear for the upcoming Get Smart film adapatation. Anne looks awesome in the white Agent 99 trenchcoat, but couldn’t they at least give Steve a shoe-phone to talk on? He just looks like Michael Scott [USA Today]
Christina Ricci as Trixie in the Speed Racer movie? Strange, I always had a weird attraction to the character in the cartoon, but picturing her as the chained-to-a-radiator-sexpot we saw her as last, my thoughts about Trixie suddenly got that much dirtier. [Sci Fi Wire]
iTunes signs a deal with MGM Films to offer their line of movies in the online store that is destroying all others in the marketplace. You can now download Dances with Wolves and Rocky via the iTunes Store. Joy. [apple.com]
Shia Lebouf (Transformers, Disturbia), currently being cast in every single movie in production, has also joined the cast of Indiana Jones 4. After denying the rumor for weeks, he finally revealed why: he was ordered by Speilburg and Lucas to keep quiet. [USA Today]
Kevin Smith (Clerks, Dogma) puts the pwnage on the everyday internet troll on Cinematical’s website in response to a snarky comment someone left in discussion of his proposed horror flick, Red State. He not only responds, but starts answering other random questions by the other commenters. I’m glad Kevin only “likes” ponies, too. Scroll down to the “comments” section to see the craziness.
