The Fangirly Diary of a Geek Girl: All your lists are belong to us!
MONDAY
Tom Hiddleston is the first Hero of the Year for MTV! That is an individual “who made a major impact on the comic book movie community in 2012”. Yup, Hiddles, you are one of us now, you big geek! Also in the link you can see the famous Loki’d video~
Samuel L. Jackson confirms Nick Fury will have a decent role in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, similar to the one he played in Iron Man 2… that is, not just a cameo.
News on Sherlock Holmes 3: they are writing a script! And waiting for RDJ to finish working on Iron Man 3. OMG! RDJ and Jude Law will be all bromantic in Victorian clothes again! Woohoo!
I miss their press together~
Jackie Chan would be in Expendables 3 and homeboy ain’t doing a cameo!
Sly had invited me to be in Expendables 2, but I was too busy filming CZ12 and couldn’t make a commitment to the film. But he did extend his invitation to the third movie, which I agreed on the condition that I will be appearing as more than just a minor role with a few scenes.
Dammit, Tarantino could have made a Luke Cage film eons ago! Alas, it was not meant to be~
After Reservoir Dogs. I had considered doing a “Luke Cage, Hero for Hire” movie. [Producer] Ed Pressman owned the rights at that time, and we talked about it. I talked to Larry Fish [Laurence Fishburne] about being Luke Cage, and he really liked that idea. Then I ended up writing Pulp Fiction.
Jamie Foxx talked a bit about what Electro’s costume might look like in The Amazing Spider-man sequel:
It won’t be green and yellow. It will be a different color. They (the producers) want something for the future. They want to have it more grounded and not as comic bookie, so it won’t be green and yellow.
Ok, we got it. No green and yellow for you.
So, remember the pink covers Marvel did for Cancer Awareness Month? It doesn’t stop there. Apparently Marvel will have one of the heroines get the awful disease… Yep, this comic could be very good or very bad, depending on how it’s handled.
Wooo! Another Doctor Who prequel of the Christmas episode. A “minisode”, as they call them.
I found it full of lulz~
aw man Marceline and Lizzie Bennet and all the geeky things
@Diandra Rodriguez, Duuuuuude, the Marceline & Ice King song killed me! KILLED MEEEEE!!!
This magic keeps me alive //
But, it’s making me crazy //

Please forgive me for whatever I do //

@mirella, tearrrsssssssss
“Top Ten characters of the year by MTV! I like them all except for 3 and 8.”
What’s wrong with Matthew McConaughey (Magic Mike) and Ezra Miller (Perks)? Both were easily the best parts of the movies MTV ranked them. Is it because they’re not geek-friendly?
@Rodrigo, exactly XDDDDDD Also both were pretty “meh” for me.
@mirella, Still better than nearly everyone in The Hunger Games. Considering this is MTV, I’m surprised they managed to ignore the people from The Hobbit (great film, btw) or Twilight (whom MTV sucks dick to).
Oh wait, it’s a Top 50 ranking. Joe (Looper), Silva (Skyfall), Bilbo (The Hobbit), Calvin (Django Unchained) are a bit too low in this last. And the likes of Snow White (Huntsman) and Arthur Kipps (The Woman in Black) shouldn’t be there, lol.
@Rodrigo, @Rodrigo, Yes about The Hobbit. I guess it was too soon for they to chose one character? I’m surprised about their lack of Twilight too even if I don’t give a fuck about that franchise :P
@Rodrigo, I would vote Ted off the Top10, push Silva up and kick Snow White out to include Theron’s Evil Queen instead.
@amy, Speaking of voting people off the Top 10, Loki needs to be lower — Silva shits all over Loki literally as a villain — and I’d add either Joe or Cid from Looper.
@mirella, Freeman’s Bilbo and a Twlight character appear lower in MTV’s ranking. But characters from Django Unchained are there and the film premieres on Christmas. I’m sure MTV has passes to see films in order to put them there.
@Rodrigo, Oh, I didn’t mean they mean they haven’t watched The Hobbit. Just that the buzz for those characters ain’t that hight yet, because they movie has only been there for a week. I’m guessing the lists is not only about MTV’s dudes personal favourites alone but also what generated more buzz on their sites. I guess while Twilight was a good buzz generator in MTV, the dudes doing the actual ranking didn’t like it that much XD
