The inevitable Tron remake is upon us:
Commercial director Joseph Kosinski is in final negotiations to develop and direct Tron, the follow-up to Disney's 1982 movie. Sean Bailey is producing via Live Planet along with Steven Lisberger, who co-wrote and directed the original film. Lost scribes Eddie Kitsis and Adam Horowitz are writing the script. Story details are being kept under wraps. The original movie was about a computer programmer thrust into a computer and forced to fight in games he helped create. It was the first movie to use computer-generated images instead of models and other optical effects in conjunction with live action. Kosinski is a former architect who worked with director David Fincher at commercial house Anonymous Content. Kosinski has directed award-winning spots for Nike, Apple, and Nintendo known for their use of computer technology that erased the lines between reality and CGI. (Hollywood Reporter)

I rented the orginal Bourne Identity, with Richard Chamberlain. Man, I only previewed the first five minutes, but I think some tequila and chasers and it'll be a fun evening:
When Bourne's shot off the ship in the beginning, he falls straight to the bottom of the ocean.
This is gonna be good.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In the Chamberlain version, Jason Bourne is a cyborg?

Finally finished watching La Meglio gioventù ( The Best of Youth ) this weekend. Although long (it was originally a 6-hour miniseries on Italian TV), I highly recommended it. It follows an Italian family (primarily two brothers) from the 1960s to 2003. The drama really picks up in the second half, and throughout you gets loads of Italian history as a backdrop. Plus, pretty pretty people.

I hope he doesn't get rusty down there.

If Richard Chamberlain is playing him, I'd say wood rot is the likelier risk.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I knew nothing about Ironman, but I just saw a trailer for it on the tv. It looks motherflippin' awesome. Downey Jr. rules in it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The character's one of the few alcoholic superheroes, but they don't dwell on that in this movie. Still, there is an alcohol shot right there in the trailer.
He's in interesting character in that he's flip and brusque and not like Spidey or Supes or Bats or Wolvie.
Hell, his most obvious nick sounds like irony.
