Movies
Gravity
Sandra Bullock could make up to $70 million for her performance in the Oscar-nominated movie. She made $20 million for signing on and will make 15% of the total gross which sits at around $700 million worldwide as well as about $20 million from DVD/Blu-Ray sales, TV deals, etc. And yet, I will still feel like she got robbed if she loses the Best Actress race at the Oscars.
Ant-Man
Patrick Wilson, who played Nite Owl in Watchmen, has signed on for an unspecified role in Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man. Could anyone see him playing a young Hank Pym? Me too.
Jurassic World
Vincent D’Onofrio will play the villain in 2015’s Jurassic World joining Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. One would guess he will not play a giant cockroach…or Thor.
James Bond
Ralph Fiennes has said that Bond 24 will begin filming in October for a November 2015 release. It has to follow Skyfall, one of the greatest Bond films ever made. No pressure guys.
TV
Parks and Recreation
First lady Michelle Obama will guest star on the season finale. This is just leading to the inevitable team-up of Michelle and Burt Macklin.
Games
Nintendo 64
There will soon be a way to convert you N64 to accept HDMI connections. This is the wonders of the human brain at its finest.
Titanfall
Developer Respawn has announced that a Season Pass will not be released for Titanfall. You will, most likely, purchase the DLC packs individually. To me this says that there is no set number of DLC releases. Could be one, could be eight.
Halo
Phil Spencer from Microsoft has said that 343 Industries has some big Halo news coming at this year’s E3. If this is a big build up to a Halo 2 Anniversary announcement, I will be disappointed. Halo 5 or go home.
