WAY TO ****, ZACK!

I hate both of you Ebony and Ivory modda ****as!! I TELL YOUUUUU!!!

if you are thinking about renting Apaloosa with Viggo and Ed Harris. I'd recommend not wasting your time. I thought it was terrible. Boring, Zellwigger or whatever her name is looked terrible and it was overall blah.

LMAO

I'm so stealing that.

BTW, I think my favorite character in Zack and Miri was Justin Long as a male pornstar with a deep voice. Totally hilarious character and he totally nailed the character. His gay superman boyfriend was funny, too.

Watched Gangs of New York for the second time tonight. Hadn't seen it since the first DVD release and definitly didn't recall it being nearly as good as I felt it was this time around. Damn good.

Really? I thought it was kind of hokey. I like mad passionate violence as much as the next guy, but I wasn't impressed.

Caught Gomorrah last night.

I really enjoyed it. While I don't think it's as good, the widespread comparisons to City of God are on point.

Has the new Iron Man sequel been discussed yet? Mikey Rourke, Scarlett Johansen, Don Cheadle and yes Sam L Jackson. I like Rourke and Cheadle but the other 2 bothers me.

****ing Don Cheadle. I love the guy, but man, do what it takes to get Terrance Howard back.

Did they ever say why he was booted out of the movie?

I liked him in Iron Man 1. He fits WarMachine better anyway IMO.

He's not listed on IMDB at all. And Cheadle is playing Rhodey, the character Howard played in Iron Man.

But did anyone ever say why Howard wasn't reprising the role? I heard he was upset about not getting the nod, just wondering if there was a reason.

I thought Howard was good in Iron Man 1.

When a summer blockbuster grosses more than $300 million, putting together a sequel is typically as simple as throwing buckets of money at your stars and signing a few pieces of paper. That hasn't been the case with Iron Man 2. It took months for Marvel Studios to lock in director Jon Favreau for the sequel. And reports that Don Cheadle will replace Terrence Howard as Col. Jim Rhodes — a supporting character who seemed poised for a big role in the follow-up after he muttered ''Next time, baby'' to Iron Man's steel suit — hint that IM2 isn't quite as infallible as the superhero at its center.

Hollywood insiders believe the exit stems from Terrence Howard's difficult behavior on the set of Iron Man. But those with intimate knowledge of the situation suggest a far more dramatic backstory: Howard was the first actor signed to the film and, on top of that, was the highest-paid. That's right: more than Gwyneth Paltrow. More than Jeff Bridges. More than Robert Downey Jr. And once the project fully came together, it was too late to renegotiate his deal. It didn't help that, according to one source, Favreau and his producers were ultimately unhappy with Howard's performance, and spent a lot of time cutting and reshooting his scenes. (Favreau could not be reached for comment, while Howard's publicist says: ''Terrence had a tremendous experience working on Iron Man.'')

As such, when Favreau and screenwriter Justin Theroux went to map out the sequel they found themselves minimizing Howard's story line. Once Marvel learned that Favreau was thinking of curtailing the role, the studio went to the actor's agents with a new and drastically reduced offer — a number that's similar to what supporting cast members were paid for the first movie. The agents, according to sources, were so taken aback by this new figure — estimated at somewhere between a 50 and 80 percent pay cut — that they questioned it. Why did they blanch? Multiple sources say that Marvel execs never told Howard's reps that they had issues with the star's on-set conduct. (Marvel would not comment for this story.)

It's unclear whether Howard's team walked away first, or if Marvel ended the discussion at that point. Either way, the studio moved quickly to secure Cheadle and the story leaked out the next morning, Oct. 14. And alas for Howard, there will be no next time.
