Madden 10 Roster Update #7 Details
The next roster update for Madden 10 is slated to release either today or tomorrow and as such the weekly ratings details are now available. Of note is a boost to an 86 for Cedric Benson and 76 for Miles Austin. Michael Crabtree lost two points which is curious since most everyone thought he was too high coming back in. However he was not expected to play in the game this past weekend so how that would affect his rating is odd.
This time EA has provided the changes in the form of images w...
Jon Favreau Will Not Direct The Avengers
With the current and coming crop of Marvel superhero movies leading up to them combining forces in The Avengers, common thought was that Jon Favreau would take the project on as director. Favreau was the one who sculpted Iron Man and created a believable world wherein all the heroes could unite. He currently is working on Iron Man 2 which will release next summer while The Avengers will be out in summer 2012.
In an interview with MTV Favreau states that he will not be the director for The...
Heroes Major Character to Be Killed Off
Heroes continues to drop in the ratings and following the girl-on-girl kiss (ratings desperation) comes another supposed shocker. Ausiello reports that a major original male character in a one-time hit show is set to be killed off in the near future. Apparently this development came a surprise to the actor who only learned of this from reading the script. E Online confirms and reveals that the series in question is in fact Heroes.
So what characters are in danger? Peter and Nathan, Sylar,...

Script for ID4 Sequel Complete
When a movie becomes a blockbuster hit of the magnitude seen with Independence Day there will always be talk about a sequel. As director Roland Emmerich begins his rounds promoting 2012 questions on that topic are coming up again. In an interview with LatinoReview he discusses the stage they are now at with a script having been completed.
Dean Devlin and I are still set to make a sequel likely because we’ve found some sort of idea and we approached FOX and FOX has not quite figured o...
Week Five Ratings Change Suggestions
Normally one game wouldn't result in a ratings upgrade but what Miles Austin did will almost certainly get him one. He basically took over the role as #1 receiver with Roy Williams out and turned in a Cowboys record breaking 250 yards with 2 TDs. Austin right now sits at a 70 and could end up matching teammate Patrick Crayton at 77 now that he has taken his starting spot with Crayton possibly dropping down. Cedric Benson became the first RB to go over 100 yards against the Ravens defense in ...
