Despite the miserable selection of films from last Friday, this weekend’s releases offer something for everybody including a scary children’s flick (“Monster House“), a fantasy thriller (“Lady in the Water“), a superhero cheesefest (“My Super Ex-Girlfriend“) and a scabrous comedy (“Clerks 2“). Of course, while all of these films seem poised to take home top honors after opening weekend, there’s still the big bad “Pirates” sequel to worry about. Will Johnny Depp and Co. win first place for a third week in a row, or can one of the four new films finally bump the swashbuckling actioneer off its throne?

It’s official! Well, sort of.
“A very trusted source” over at Latino Review has confirmed that Heath Ledger was offered the role of The Joker in the sequel to “Batman Begins.”
The rumor comes courtesy of the same guys who delivered the first scoop about Brandon Routh winning the role of Superman before anyone else, and I must say, it’s a very interesting casting decision. Ledger is a much younger actor (as I’m sure director Christopher Nolan was hoping for), and he’s got both the talent and the smile to deliver the goods. But is it true? I guess we’ll just have to wait around to find out…
Imagine if they had played Space Invaders.
That’s it. Nothing more needs to be said.
The folks at Newsarama – one of the best sources for comic-related news out there – have an interview with John Hefferman, screenwriter of “Snakes On A Plane.” It’s far from exclusively about the film, but it does offer a little bit of info you might not have read before.
Hot on the heels of his seafaring fun as Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean sequel, Johnny Depp has made plans to move his family to a private island he purchased in the Bahamas in 2004.
So does this mean that if he had instead starred in, say, Apollo 13…Johnny would now be moving his family to outer space?
