Watchmen Posters
Live Action Cowboy Bebop to Star Keanu Reeves
Both IF Magazine and First showing are reporting that a live action film of Cowboy Bebop is in development.
When IF magazine spoke with producer Erwin Stoff He had this to say..
“I’m developing COWBOY BEBOP for Fox, but doing it as a live-action film, so I’m working on that at the moment,” Stoff tells iF. “I’m really excited to be working on it, and it’s in the really early stages. We just signed it the other day.”
“I have such an enormous admiration for its creators, that our first and foremost concern is going to be a real degree of faithfulness to the tone of the movie, to the mix of genres, and so on and so forth,” he says. “When I met with them in Japan, one of the first things that I brought up was the experience that we had on A SCANNER DARKLY, and how hard we worked to remain faithful to Philip K. Dick, and that was our big concern here.”
First showing broke the news that Kenau Reeves is rumored to be attached with this statement
Just last week we discovered that Fox is developing a live-action Cowboy Bebop movie based on the popular anime series. Remarkably, the project still isn't officially announced and Fox is still keeping it under wraps.
However, a good friend inside the industry who is a very reliable source wrote in to tell me that the film is being fast tracked inside the studio and will most likely be out by 2010.
He also revealed that Keanu Reeves has been attached as the lead character Spike for over eight months now and is still set for the role. Unfortunately there isn't a writer or director attached yet, but with some new forward momentum coming from last week's announcement, I don't think it will take too long.
Venom Spinoff In The Works
The Hollywood reporter is reporting that Sony is developing a Venom spinoff. Jacob Estes (The Gifted, Mean Creek) had been commissioned to pen a draft, but Sony is looking for writers to take another shot at it.
Sony hopes that this spinoff can provide a boost to the Spider-Man franchise the same way the Wolverine movie is being used to prolong the X-Men franchise.
The reporter further points out that the studio faces a few hurdles in developing Venom, including casting: Sony apparently isn’t sure Spider-Man 3’s Topher Grace could carry a tentpole feature.

Teaser Posters For Red Sonja
Nike Pulls Hyperdunk Ad "That Ain't Right"
In a move that further proves We've become over sensitive in the United States Nike recently pulled a ad for the newly released Hyperdunk.
The ad in question depicts a man dunking on another with the face of the defender close to the crotch of the dunker with the caption of “That Ain’t Right.” The accusations are that the said caption may cause people to think that homosexuality “ain’t right” due to the placement of the defenders face.
Nike had this to say about the ad: Nike is strongly opposed to discrimination of any kind and has a long history of supporting athletes regardless of their sexual orientation. The advertisement in question is based purely upon a common insight from within the game of basketball - the athletic feat of dunking on the opposition, and is not intended to be offensive.
Ironically, Nike recently was honored with a perfect score of 100 by Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index

The Show Must Go On!
Initially I started the "Dairy Pillows of the day" posts as something to fill space while I was away on vacation. But, to my surprise it ended up being even more popular than I anticipated.
Having said that, I will continue with these threads but, I don't think it'll be on a daily basis. Besides, who doesn't want to stare at Somaya Reece?

Dairy Pillows Of The Day: Denise Milani
Instead they'll be a new feature on this site that I have dubbed Dairy Pillows Of The Day that will feature a photo or photos of a different model each day. First up, Denise Milani...obviously.
So Cal Bound
Posts are likely to be fairly sparse over the next five days as I will be attending Comic Con International in San Diego, CA as I have for the past 13 years. Yes, there is cause to be jealous. I'll be knee deep in Cos Play geeks, fan boys and the entire population that have yet to discover the benefits of soap and running water.
In addition I'll be on a personal quest to meet some of the A List stars slated to make appearances. Most notably Hayden Panettiere and Jennifer Love Hewitt. Provided I don't get arrested I'll resume posting regularly next Tuesday.
Until then here are a couple of pics to hold You over.

It was bound to happen sooner or later, I've been exhausted from work the past couple of days. As a result I haven't been posting as frequently as you may have become accustomed to seeing.
Not wanting to neglect this site or it's readers I'm going to fall back on what always seems to work, pictures of Denise Milani. Below you will find 2 of My favorite galleries from Denise's official website which, I highly recommend. Enjoy.

Hey Kids, It's A Milestone. Which Means, Free Boob Pictures!
This very entry marks a bit of a milestone as, it is officially the 100th post since I started this blog just a little over 4 months ago. Long time readers will have noticed that originally this blog started out as a personal blog.
But, as time went by I realized that I didn't want this to be another personal blog. There's tons of those already. I wanted My blog to be different. So, I started blogging about things that I like.
And, that appears to be what My "niche" is as My readership has nearly doubled. Evidently many of you share the same fondness for the things I do namely sneakers and boobs.
So, as a thank You and by very popular request here are a few more hosted galleries of Denise Milani as a "Thank You" from Me.

Stand Up To Cancer.Org Joins The Social Vibe Movement.
StandUp2Cancer.Org has recently teamed with the charity based site Social Vibe that will allow users to effortlessly help raise money for this cause.
For those still unfamiliar with Social Vibe I'll break it down in a nutshell. Social Vibe is a twist on social networking websites.
Several major brand names such as Nike, Coca-Cola and Apple teamed with Social Vibe to allow it's users to be "sponsored" by them. The users place a small badge/banner (similar to the ones I have displayed at the bottom of this page) on their social network pages such as Myspace, Facebook or live journal.
Every time those badges are viewed the user earns points which are in turn turned into money donated to the user's charity that they also choose from a list to represent.
StandUp2Cancer.Org is a cutting-edge movement that is determined to attack cancer once and for all by urgently pushing cancer research forward! Endorsed by an impressive group of A-list celebrities, Stand Up To Cancer has some exciting projects coming up to increase awareness.
