Spectacular Halo Live Action Trailer
This video will most likely not fit in this post box, but I encourage you to watch it at other sources. It is easily the best thing I have ever seen out of Halo. It has all the poignancy and story that are missing from the majority of the games. If Halo Reach is awesome as this trailer, I'll tkae back everything I've said about the franchise.

Around the Web- 4-26-10
It's Monday again, and that means, more pointless web videos! Great joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains. Well there are no bad Watchmen references in this batch of videos, but there is some rather funny stuff.

1. The Shake Weight
Yes, here's the Shake Weight. Trust me, I'm not the only one out there who found this hilariously perverted. Even Ellen Degeneres commented on this disturbing peice of excercise equipment.
2. Parking Fail
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As much as I hate the internet rapage of the word "fail", that is truly the only word to describe this video of driving at its worst.
3. Orchestra Teacher Freak Out
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy is amazing. Seriously, I wish he was my teacher. Even though I don't play an orchestra instrument, I would love to have this guy teach my history class or something. Either way, kudos to him and the student for pulling off this amazing prank.

Ghost Rider 2 Moving Foward-Without Nicolas Cage?
Although never hailed as one of Marvel's better films, Ghost Rider was a commercial success when it was released in 2007, and has even gained a small cult following among the comic book fanbase. Talks of sequel have been thrown about since the film's release, but have not gone far until now.
Columbia studios loses their control over the Ghost Rider property this November, if a sequel has not begun production. This creates a problem seeing as the films star, Nicolas Cage, is currently busy with other projects such as the third film in the National Treasure franchise. Columbia has now apparently accelerated talks to create a sequel, without the first films leading man. However, noone seems to be asking, should a sequel really be made?
Will We See District 10 Sooner Rather Than Later?
Shortly after Neill Blompkamp's fantastic science fiction film, District 9, rumors have been flying regarding a sequel to the highly successful movie. Blompkamp has expressed interest in returning for a sequel, or prequel set years before the original film. However, the young director announced last fall that he would be working on another science fiction film unrelated to his first. Hype and news began to simmer down, and many assumed that it would be a while until we returned to the alien infested streets of Johannesburg.
However, the film blog Marketsaw claims that in recent talks with WETA digital, the title District 10 was mentioned. The project supposedly is scheduled to start shooting in South Africa this fall, and the creative team from the first film will be attached. This at the moment remains as little more then a rumor, but we will keep our eyes peeled for new details about this highly anticipated project.

Marvel Discusses Film Ideas Ranging from Ka-Zar to Doctor Strange
According to CHUD.com, it looks like Marvel may be making large steps towards expanding their film franchise. Apparently the famous comic book industry has been in talks with directors and screenwriters this week on adapting some of Marvel's lesser known characters to the silver screen. Each film would have a reported budget of around $20 to $40 million, and reportedly would feature characters such as Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Ka-zar, Dazzler (?), and the famous former sorcerer supreme Dr. Strange. While it is likely we will not receive a film adaptation of any of these comics for years to come, it is exciting to hear that some of Marvel's second tier characters will get their time in the spotlight. Of all the character's discussed though, Dr. Strange's name was reportedly the one with the most interest and excitement. There are even some rumors of a large budget adaptation being created following Marvel's Avengers film in 2012.
Ridley Scott Returns To Direct Alien Prequel
For many years, it has been rumored that Ridley Scott would return to direct a prequel to his 1979 horror classic, Alien. Although it existed as little more then a nerd fantasy until recently, details for the project have been hazy for months. However, Thursday Scott held an interview with MTV, where he dropped the following information: "It's set in 2085, about 30 years before Sigourney [Weaver's character Ellen Ripley]. It's fundamentally about going out to find out 'Who the hell was that Space Jockey?' The guy who was sitting in the chair in the alien vehicle — there was a giant fellow sitting in a seat on what looked to be either a piece of technology or an astronomer's chair ... Our man [Tom Skerritt as Captain Dallas] climbs up and says "There's been an explosion in his chest from the inside out — what was that?" I'm basically explaining who that Space Jockey — we call him the Space Jockey — I'm explaining who the space jockeys were ... [The film] is about the discussion of terraforming — taking planets and planetoids and balls of earth and trying to terraform, seed them with the possibilities of future life."
In addition to that awesomeness, Scott confirmed that famous creature designer H.R. Giger would be assisting him with the effects in the new film. Looks like fans of the Alien saga will finally get the sequel they deserve.
