Twentieth Century Fox has teamed up with Marvel Studios to begin production on the second planned X-Men spinoff, this time focusing on the superbaddie played by Ian McKellen.

The long-gestating Magneto has no official start date and will wait until the first planned X-Men spinoff, Wolverine, is completed before revving up production. However, that film has yet to find a director.

Ian McKellen kicks ass. Gandalf, Magneto no one else could have played them. But a whole movie? I have no doubt Ian can pull it off, but I don’t like spin-off movies. What happens to the rest of the X-Men story? Professor X is dead? Phoenix/Jean Grey is Dead? I think they painted themselves into a corner and are now just avoiding the situation.

I love this idea. Magneto has such a great past, it will be awesome to have his character fleshed out on the big screen. Besides… Ian McKellen is bad ass.

Lindsay Lohan has dropped out of the movie The Best Time of Our Lives, just weeks before shooting. Apparently the Lesbian scenes were too much for her to handle. (with Keira Knightley) She is being replaced by Sienna Miller, who doesn’t mind the scenes.

What a shame, what a shame. This movie was rumored all over the net for a long time now. I guess the pressure on Lindsay to do it got too much for her. Since she doesn’t drink anymore, she probably couldn’t relax enough for the scenes. (cough)RIGHT!(cough)

Awww…. poor Linds. What does she have against women? I think she’s a sexist. Besides, it’s Keira Knightley. I mean it’s not like Keira is curvy. If Lindsay closed her eyes, I’m sure she could pretend it’s Aaron Carter.

Jessica Beil starring with Adam Sandler in I Know Pronounce You Chuck and Larry

I gotta say, Jessy may have a bit too masculine of a body frame for my tastes, but these caps from the movie trailer sure makes it hard for me to not want to drool a bit. Did I just say “make it hard”? Snap.

Oh yeah Jack… those ‘fit’ girls are just gross. WTF? Biel can kick my ass any day of the week… and I’d love it. She can tie me up and beat me, ride me like a dirty cowgirl, slap my face and call me daddy… ah damn. Where’s the lube?

‘Spider-Man 3′ is rumoured to be the most expensive movie ever made.

According to reports, the film - which is based on the popular Marvel comic book series - cost more than $500 million to make. However, the sum has been much disputed with some Hollywood insiders struggling to accept that so much money was spent on it.

‘Spider-Man 3′ producer Laura Ziskin told the New York Post newspaper, “I refuse to say the real number because it makes me choke. ‘Spider-Man 3′ was a super-expensive movie - the most expensive film we’ve ever made. But there’s no way you can get to $300 million.”

A Sony representative claims the film cost $270 million.

One movie source is adamant the actual total was higher, with production costs alone reaching $350 million, while New York location shoots cost upwards of $1 million a day.

Radar magazine reported the final bill for ‘Spider-Man 3,’ which stars Kirsten Dunst and Tobey Maguire, was $500 million.

I love Hollywood. This article makes me sick to my stomach and yet happy and awed at the same time. What a country. If it really does check in at ½ a BILLION dollars, that’s quite the feat. Egypt has its pyramids, Rome its Coliseum, France its Salad Dressing, and the good ole U.S. of A. has its Hollywood Feature Films.

Wait a minute… who cares? If I was a billionaire, I would certainly not WANT a movie to cost 500 million, but if it was Spider-Man 3? I would happily invest. I am currently drinking Spider-Man 3 “green Apple” soda, and snacking on some Spider-Man 3 fruit chews. The bottom line is that the revenue doesn’t stop at movie tickets. Spider-Man is so much more. 500 million to make? I doubt it. 300 million sounds more realistic. Either way, I don’t think Sony is sweating it.

Laurence Fishburne will provide the voice of the Silver Surfer in “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer,” which opens June 15.

Internet rumors had the actor voicing Galactus.

Also, his voice is heard as the narrator in the computer-animated film Teenaged Mutant Ninja Turtles.

I like Laurence Fishburne, but I always thought he was a touch of an over-actor in certain roles. We’ll see how he does on a Voice Over, but knowing the comics and Fishburne, I think he may fall flat.

Well this is quite the development. For those that don’t know, the Silver Surfer is the herald of Galactus, a being who eats worlds. Galactus is a gigantic bad ass, that is literally gigantic. But the makers of FF2 have decided to depict him as clouds. That’s right… clouds. Lame.
