Culture: Let’s hope Mickey Rourke wins tonight so he does this again

  • He is one tough son of a &(%^* and he don’t like it when I say that ’cause he goes, ‘Mickey, you’ll scare all the other actors away from me.’ But Darren, you know what, if they ain’t got the balls to bring it, then &*^& ’em, you know.
  • Mickey Rourke • discussing “The Wrestler” director Darren Aronofsky during his best actor acceptance speech at the Independent Spirit Awards last night. Rourke’s lengthy rant also included odes to his dead Chihuahua and a plea to give Eric Roberts a second chance, too. He’s up for a best actor Oscar tonight, too. • source

Regarding Pattinson, she noted that “He’s fabulous!” Next, Hilton will do the Macarena for us. source

Culture: “Veronica Mars” fanboys, rejoice! A movie’s getting made

  • The series creator switches gears. Back in the mid-naught days of UPN, a much-loved cult series named Veronica Mars captured the attention of a few. Of course, like many loved things, the Kristin Bell crime-solving series got canned, but now that series creator Rob Thomas’ latest TV project, Cupid, is getting scaled back, he’s ready to revive it in film form. “I suddenly find myself with enough time to write that script,” Thomas said. “That’s the next project.” While he has no confirmation that the cast will sign onto the project, they’ve expressed interest. source
