Superman's Lois Lane Has Been Cast!!!
Director Zack Snyder has found his Lois Lane in his 'Superman' film starring Henry Cavill, Kevin Costner, and Diane Lane. Snyder has confirmed that Amy Adams will portray Lois Lane.
Here is what he said about Amy Adams: "Second only to Superman himself, the question of who will play Lois Lane is arguably what fans have been most curious about. So we are excited to announce the casting of Amy Adams, one of the most versatile and respected actresses in films today. Amy has the talent to capture all of the qualities we love about Lois: smart, tough, funny, warm, ambitious and, of course, beautiful."
'Superman' is slated for a December 2012 release. Stay tuned for more 'Superman' info!!!

Battle: Los Angeles!!!
Director Jonathan Liebesman and writer Christopher Bertolini created a film, 'Battle: Los Angeles' that could have been brilliant, but instead opted to make a typical war flick with a weak storyline, no character development, and no heart. 'Battle: Los Angeles' centers around a Marines Staff Sargent Michael Nantz, Aaron Eckhart, who decides to retire after having four of his troops die in a mission. While his retirement is processing, aliens invade the city of Los Angeles and the marines force Staff Sgt. Nantz into battle with a Lieutenant and platoon of men. Can Staff Sgt. Nantz fight in combat against alien intruders and prevail or will he lose an epic fight in battle?

Elizabeth Taylor Dies, 79
Legendary screen actress Elizabeth Taylor died this morning at age 79, from congestive heart failure. Elizabeth Taylor was known for her violet eyes, double set of eyelashes, her troubled love life, and her incredible acting. She was a two time Academy Award winner, ('Butterfield 8' and Who's Afriad of Virginia Wolf') and a major contributor to HIV/AIDS research.
Her family released the following statement:
Legendary actress, businesswoman, and fearless activist Elizabeth Taylor died peacefully today in Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles. She was surrounded by her children- Michael Wilding, Christopher Wilding, Liza Todd, and Maria Burton. She was 79 years old. In addition to her children, she is survived by 10 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren.
The actress had been hospitalized six weeks ago with congestive heart failure, a condition with which she had struggled for some years. Though she had recently suffered a number of complications, her condition had stabilized and it was hoped that she would be able to return home. Sadly, this was not to be.
Her son, Michael Wilding, said tonight:
"My Mother was an extraordinary woman who lived life to the fullest, with great passion, humor, and love. Though her loss is devastating to those of us who held her so close and so dear, we will always be inspired by her enduring contribution to our world. Her remarkable body of work in film, her ongoing success as a businesswoman, and her brave and relentless advocacy in the fight against HIV/AIDS, all make us all incredibly proud of what she accomplished. We know, quite simply, that the world is a better place for Mom having lived in it. Her legacy will never fade, her spirit will always be with us, and her love will live forever in our hearts."
A private family funeral later this week. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that contributions be made to the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation (elizabethtayloraidsfoundation.org). People wanting to send personal messages can log onto Facebook.com/pages/ElizabethTaylorTribute.
It is respectfully asked that the public allow the family privacy at this difficult time.
Details of a memorial service will be announced at a later date.
