The Avengers Trailer Is Out


The official trailer for The Avengers was released today. They play Nine Inch Nails over it, so you know they mean business. Or there's a possible scene where somebody cuts themselves to feel then cries in the shower. Who's to say, really?

The Avengers Has A Poster


Marvel released the first poster today of their much anticipated flick, The Avengers today, and as you can see, it features Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) Captain America (Chris Evans), The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo ), and the artwork of the guy who airbrushes 2Pac on t-shirts at the mall.

Lindsay Is Crying, Needs Iron Man


Lindsay will be getting out of jail in less than a week, but based on her incessant whining and crying all hours of the night, you'd think she was tied over a cliff on Skull Island. Oh, boo hoo, you spoiled cunt. The Sun reports:
The actress has reportedly kept prisoners at LA County jail awake at night as she wails over the taunts chanted at her repeatedly throughout the day. As a result, Lindsay's been put in lockdown as officials bid to make conditions more bearable for all, says former inmate Cheryl Presser. She revealed: "Lindsay would lie there shivering all night, crying and covering her face with her hands. "Her wailing was keeping everyone awake. She had a hysterical fit, crying and yelling, so she got put in isolation." One US report claims Lindsay is being monitored around-the-clock and has even spent a short time in hospital.

In other Lindsay news (there always is), Michael Lohan is still trying to keep his name in the news by attempting to get Robert Downey, Jr. (who went through drug rehabs like condoms back in the 90's), to speak with his troubled daughter. Us Magazine reports:
"My people are reaching out to Robert Downey Jr. and to Mark Wahlberg. I know both of them and Mark is a tremendous human being," Michael says. "Hopefully they'll see her before she gets out and she'll get in this rehab and get off these prescription meds, and she'll get her life back." "Once she gets out, which will be Thursday or Friday, of course I'm going to fly back and I'll be there for her," Michael says. "She's only on two [medications] right now. Ambien is for sleeping, so I can understand that," Michael says. "But this Adderall stuff has got to be stopped. Seven out of 10 kids in college are on this stuff and it's no more than methamphetamine! It's speed."

"My people are reaching out to Robert Downey, Jr."? Dude, you wear acid-washed jeans and a braided belt with a cell phone holster on it, who are these people you're talking about? Crockett and Tubbs? Are they still parking their DeLorean? Are they Vietnam vets who now solve mystery cases with an orange robot? I'm so confused right now.

Iron Man 2 Trailer Is Online


The first full official trailer for Iron Man 2 hit online today um,...HOLY SHIT! It's gonna be hard to top the first one, but Robert Downey, Jr. owns as usual then you add Mickey Rourke as Whiplash, Scarlett Johansson (pictures) as Black Widow, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and Don Cheadle as Col. Jim Rhodes/War Machine. The only way this trailer could be any more awesome is if it showed Iron Man blowing up Osama Bin Laden at a party where Megan Fox is going down on Kelly Brook.



You're Not Gonna Believe This


You might want to sit down for this, but America's beloved actress Gwyneth Paltrow is acting like a raging bitch on the set of Iron Man 2. I know, I know. Breathe. C'mon, breathe. Fox News reports:
A source says some of the "Iron Man" team had secret hopes of her character being recast, or even killed in the movie, but are resigned to the likelihood that she is locked in as the character Pepper Potts. Gwyneth did nothing to make friends with fellow superhero Scarlett Johansson, playing the Black Widow, says the insider, and crew actually preferred to be around her husband, Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin. "Gwyneth is extremely cool at work. She's just a step above professional, too snobby," the on-set source tells FOX411. "Gwyneth is not friendly to anyone, and tends to make people feel awkward and uncomfortable. She wasn't outright rude to Scarlett, she just didn't ever speak to her. Gwyneth went out of her way to avoid Scarlett, and they had zero contact, at Gwyneth's choosing." The source says that she also put undue pressure on the hair and makeup staff and other members of the crew. "Gwyneth would be very put out if hair and makeup were running behind or things were not on schedule. Usually, nothing was drastically late, but Gwyneth can instantly say something that lets everyone know she is put out," the source explains. "Much of the crew didn't mind hanging out with her husband, Chris, but if Gwyneth ever came around, they scattered! Chris is so chill and relaxed and she is just the opposite. Chris has been a crew favorite since the filming of the first movie." And while the insider says there are definitely people on the movie who would love to see her replaced, Pepper Potts is a very important character to Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark. "She is not going anywhere," sighs the source. "As long as Gwyneth wants to be in the movies, she will be, and the crew has to learn how to handle her."

Seriously, is there even any reason Gwyneth Paltrow is even in movies besides her famous parents using their Hollywood connections like high-speed internet? She can't act, she's ugly, freakishly pale, and I'd rather hear the a doctor tell me he's gonna have to amputate that hear this bitch's annoying ass voice. If her parents weren't Bruce Paltrow and Blythe Danner, she'd be asking me if she could box up my steak at Outback. Why, yes. Yes, you could.


Note
: And don't please justify the reasons for why she can act because she won an Oscar. Three 6 Mafia won an Oscar too, so let's don't get carried away.

Iron Man Killed This Weekend


Iron Man raked in $100.7 million during it's opening weekend, making it the second-highest opening for a non-sequel (Spider-Man) and the tenth-highest opening overall. Adding the $96.7 million it made in 57 other countries, the film made $210 million in 5 days. FOX News reports:

We could not have hoped for a better way for Marvel Studios to blast off," said David Maisel, chairman of the unit, a division of Marvel Entertainment, which stands to pull in a greater share of box office receipts and merchandising money by financing movies itself..."Iron Man," which won rave reviews from many critics, features Downey as billionaire arms designer Tony Stark, a boozy womanizer who builds a high-tech suit and becomes a superhero, mending his ways after he's taken captive and sees firsthand the devastation his weapons cause."

For a movie about a man whore who makes a metal suit then blows up terrorists, Iron Man kicked as much ass as you might expect. It's a comic book movie though, so it's probably not as good as the movie you saw this weekend, Mr. Smartypants. That documentary about the two paralyzed Wiccan lesbians who live in a tree house and teach socialism to squirrels is sure to make people think.

Robert Downey Jr. is Black


Here's the first promotional picture of Robert Downey Jr. in the upcoming comedy, Tropic Thunder. As your discerning eye has no doubt already noticed, Robert Downey Jr. is in blackface. I have no idea what this movie is about, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's about Gene Simmons posing as a black guy to get a scholarship to the Army? Sure. Why not.
