I think Shadowcaptain has some competition in the Gollum costume contest...

So, aintitcoolnews.com had a contest. To win a life-size Gollum bust, people had to send in a photograph of themselves eating "Gollum food." I.E., somethin' "raw and wrigglin'." Yeah, I know, I too was afraid of the extent that geeks would go to win crap, and, well... see for yourself.

After seeing the winner, I couldn't stop laughing for three minutes. In retrospect, it's kinda fucking gross. Check it out, but don't say I didn't warn you.

Man, and people call me a geek...

More casting "OOH"-ness!

So far, the cast for "Batman: Intimidation" has been pretty exciting. Christan Bale as Bats. Michael Caine as Alfred. Katie Holmes as Harvey Dent's assistant D.A. Cillian Murphy (resident clammy sunken-chested zombie-fighting Englishman) playing the Scarecrow in a small role. Directed by Memento helmer Christopher Nolan and told in a year-one rubber-suit-less style. Add to that, the script is supposed to be awesome. But all this has still left one glaring question: who's gonna play the real villian?

According to chud.com, Liam Neeson has been cast as Ra's al Ghul. *foams at mouth* Oooh, it may not be David Warner (the voice of Ra's on the animated series, and he was the Evil guy in Time Bandits), but I could be very, very content with "Priest" Vallon himself playing The Demon's Head.

*does the evil happy dance*
