May 20 2008 David Lynch Puts Some Still Warm Panties in His Mouth
As much as I try to keep abreast of developments from big-name directors, sometimes, despite my best efforts, things slip between the cracks. I missed that Frank Darabont will be directing Law Abiding Citizen with Gerard Butler in the lead; that Spielberg plans to return attention to his long-rumored Abraham Lincoln biopic once he finished work on Tintin; oh, and that David Lynch put a pair of a fan's still "very warm" panties in his mouth.
I find out the very day Lynch releases a video monologue complaining about the iPhone, but somehow no one thinks to send me the one where he shoves a girl's unmentionables in his mouth--even when it's been around long enough to be re-mixed with Twin Peaks music. (IT HAS.) Thanks for nothing, internet denizens.
Disturbing video below the cut.

Oct 1 2007 AM Poster Post: The Mist
With apologies for drifting slightly into the PM comes the poster for Frank Darabont's The Mist. This also serves as the introductory promotion for Universal Studio's newest attraction, "Parking Lot: The Ride," if you change the slogan to, "When the car stops, the ride begins..."
Aug 31 2007 The Mist Trailer
Thanks to Joe for sending along the trailer to The Mist, the film about mysterious creatures hidden within a looming vapor that isn't The Fog. With Frank Darabont, director of The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile, trying his hand at yet another Stephen King property, this one definitely can't be mist. Feel free to use that line in your personal blogs or conversations.
Aug 6 2007 Tom Hanks Stretching for Fahrenheit 451?
Will Tom Hanks lead Frank Darabont's adaptation of the Bradbury classic Fahrenheit 451? So says an AICN tipster, who claims the actor will play the novel's fireman protagonist Guy Montag. If the rumor proves true, it will remain to be seen if Hanks can pull off playing a sort of "everyman" role. And if so, will the moviegoers be willing to look past his parts in Bosom Buddies and Bachelor Party to see him as a different character? God I hope so! I, for one, like this Tom Hanks fellow, and I think he should be getting more famous leading roles like this.
