In today's TV news, according to Deadline, ABC has signed a deal for MEN IN SHORTS comedy series inspired by the life of professional soccer player Robbie Rogers, who became the first openly gay man to compete in a top North American professional sports league.

NEW ELVEN POSTERS FOR
HOBBIT BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES WITH CATE BLANCHETT, LUKE EVANS, LEE PACE
If you follow our official Facebook and Twitter accounts you've seen a new HOBBIT character poster each day this week, and now Elven posters and banners have been released too for the final epic chapter THE HOBBIT THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES which arrives into theatres this December. You can see Elven Queen Galadriel (Cate Blanchett) coming to help Gandalf (Ian McKellen) in the heat of the battle, and also Elven king Thranduil (Lee Pace) leading his fearsome army of mighty Elven archers into war! These elven armies will unite with the armies of men, lead byBard the Bowman (Luke Evans), and dwarvish forces in order to defeat the dark legions of Orcs sent by evil Sauron!
I can definitely see Ewan McGregor as Doctor Strange.
ReplyDeleteI truly hope he gets the role, I don't like any of the other choices!
DeleteI can't really see him as Strange, might be just me.
DeleteRyan Gosling is the new name added to the list over night
DeleteI'm so ready for another Hobbit flick!
ReplyDeletehope we finally get a good one! The first two were mildly boring and lacking in dynamic :(
DeleteYes. I agree.
DeleteThis one should be better with all the battle dynamics
DeleteYep, and those elven ears! (sigh)
DeleteI do watch it only for my Elven people.... I cannot stand them pesky hobbitses and smelly dwarves....
DeleteThose Hobbit posters really are amazing. It would be cool to have the collection. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for Wonder Woman getting her own movie. :)
they're the part of that huge tapestry I've posted some time ago!
Delete"Men in Shorts" sounds like it has promise! And my, my, my that Lee Pace is a handsome king of the elves indeed.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the new sitcom :) And we do kneel in front of our Elven king! If there's one role I'd ever want to play in my life - it would be the role of the Elven king :)
DeleteThe last Hobbit looks good. Thus far. And even though it's nice to see Orlando Bloom, he always looks like a rabbit in headlights!
ReplyDeleteit is so very true... he doesn't have the elegance and depth of his daddy Thranduil :)
DeleteOrlando Bloom IS a rabbit.
Deletetotally
DeleteEspecially in Troy.
DeleteI think I'll stick with my Grant Gustin and wait til Ezra's "Flash" can be seen on television for free. That's how unexcited I am for Ezra's Flash. Ayep.
ReplyDeleteyep, I don't expect much from him either, he seems so absolutely miscast....
DeleteThat SKINNY GUY is the Flash? (I'm lost for words...) I guess there's no limit to what FX can do...
ReplyDeleteEwan McGregor's got my vote of confidence.
yep, skinny as a bone... not that we don't like skinny, but he seems so lacking in charisma. He should borrow some from Ewan
DeleteSo we've got... a bony ass guy playing The Flash and an elf playing Wonder Woman? Someone needs to be fired, right?
Deletewe shall supply the gasoline and matches!
DeleteMuy bien.
DeleteThe hh is definitely going to have to see The Hobbit.
ReplyDeleteHope it doesn't last for three and a half hours like the previous ones :)
DeleteEven though I don't like the lady chosen for Wonder Woman, I am excited that she will have her own stand alone film. That means cool merchandise will hit the shelves that I can buy :)
ReplyDeleteThe Hobbit always has the best posters!
could be the first super hero flick I might watch in years.... I've only seen GREEN LANTERN and MAN OF STEEL in recent years
DeleteShe should play a hobbit or an elf!
Deletean elf it is
DeleteDoctor Strange isn't a hero I keep a close eye on but Ewan McGregor, Jake G., and Ethan Hawke are top choices. So excited Justice League and Wonder Woman are confirmed. Congrats also to new star for The Flash movie in 2018. Hopefully this upcoming SF series gets enough viewers so it doesn't end up like another FOX SF series...remember Almost Human. The final Hobbit's movie looks amazing!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI will never forgive Fox for cancelling ALMOST HUMAN... I cannot live properly without my weekly dose of Karl Urban!
DeleteThey're all pretty good choices for Dr Strange. Only time will tell which one they choose. And those are some awesome Hobbit posters :) Can't wait!!!!
ReplyDeletewe do love Hobbit posters!
