Sep 29 2009 Method Discovered To Make 'Marmaduke' Movie Worse

Christ, the dogs are going to talk, too?

To date, only Judy Greer had been mentioned to play Debbie Winslow in the movie, while Lee Pace from "Pushing Daisies" is playing Phil Winslow, but a small throwaway piece in Variety about Anjelah Johnson joining the cast, mentioned some of the voice cast and with a little more searching around, we found a very long list of those involved with providing voices for various animated characters in the movie, none of whom we know anything about except for their names:

Amanda Seyfried voices "Mazie," Jeremy Piven is "Bosco," Ron Perlman plays "Chupadogra," Christopher Mintz-Plasse (aka "McLovin") is "Guiseppe," while Black Eyed Peas singer Stacy "Fergie" Ferguson is "Jezebel." Steve Coogan voices "Raisin," George Lopez is "Carlos" and Damon Wayans Jr. provides the voice for "Thunder."

AND Fergie is a voice? Does this mean there's also an auto-tuned dog? You would think any attempt at a Marmaduke movie would start at the bottom of dignity's well, but it turns out there was a little lower to drop.

Dec 10 2008 Red Mist from 'Kick-Ass' Shops at Halloween USA

Over at Ain't It Cool News, Moriarty has a lengthy report from the set of Kick-Ass that includes the above first look at Christopher Mintz-Plasse's villainous character, Red Mist. I can't help but be reminded of another popular comic book character: Kid in a $52 Robin Costume.

Aug 22 2008 Nic Cage is 'Kick-Ass', as if You Didn't Know That

The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Nicolas Cage, Aaaron Johnson, and Lyndsy Fonseca have joined McLovin in the cast of Kick-Ass:

Written by Millar and drawn by John Romita Jr., the Marvel Comics' Icon imprint book centers on a high school dweeb named Dave Lizewski who decides to become a superhero even though he has no athletic ability or coordination. Things change when he eventually runs into real bad guys with real weapons.

Johnson plays the dweeb and title character, while Fonseca plays the object of the teen's infatuation who believes Dave is gay. Cage is a former cop who wants to bring down a druglord and has trained his daughter (Chloe Moretz) to be a lethal weapon.

Man, Nic Cage? I hear the comic is supposed to be pretty solid, but going in with Cage is like boxing with one arm behind your back, and that arm is held by wig glue and Wicker Man reviews.

Then again, I've got a good feeling Bangkok Dangerous will redeem him.
