Hey, DC fans!  Do you still have hope for the New 52?  Do you still think something good can come out of this gigantic clusterfuck of truly awful retcons and redesigns?  Well, then allow me to squash that hope once and for all.  Allow me to introduce the gritty, edgy, New 52 version of:



Captain Carrot.  Yes, that Captain Carrot.  For those of you who don't know, this is Captain Carrot:



^  That.  That right there is getting a dark, edgy reboot.  What the shit, DC?

Nevermind, there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you
It's a shame we have to die, my dear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
It's a shame we have to disappear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time, this time, this time

I don't see why they'd think it needed a dark & edgy remake, they clearly say that it's NOT just another funny animal comic.

If news that Arrested Development was going to get 10 brand new episodes didn't make you want to celebrate by doing the chicken dance, how about this: Netflix is expanding its order of episodes for Season 4. Now there'll be anywhere from 12-15 new Arrested Development episodes as opposed to 10.

Seriously? Ugh. Oh well, at least Awake is in second. And even then, it had some definite flaws. But it's the best new series, IMO. Which just goes to show that this year was not that good for new stuff.

... Archer's not even listed?!?!?!?! FUCK YOU STUPID PONIES >:[
ok apparently you can only be listed in one category, and Archer was in comedy. Fine, whatever, but still, 2 million votes is insane. There are way better animated shows on right now.

Alphas is in last, which is total bullshit. It's super great. It also has, no joke, the best written and acted autistic character in a TV show. None of that Big Bang Theory bullshit.

I'm not shocked at the least.

But I am disappointed in humanity.

EDIT: No Transformers Prime? >:[

Anyway, David Cronenberg tells us why there's no modern Sequel to The Fly by him:

Quote
"It wasn't really a remake, it was more of a sequel or a sidebar. It was a meditation on fly-ness. None of the same characters or anything and, of course, with an understanding of modern technology. It was something I was very pleased with and it was a disappointment not to get it made."

(using this link since Bleeding Cool had to remove the picture)

Quote
A teaser for the upcoming Hollywood reboot of king of kaiju, Godzilla, screened at this past summer's Comic Con. It opens with shots of a destroyed city and the voice of J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atomic bomb) heard reading from the Bhagavad Gita – “Now, I am become death.” A centipede-like creature crawls through the rubble, then the dust clears and Godzilla roars in. That fades to the English and Japanese movie logo. For the first time, we can see that damage.



The new Hollywood Godzilla will be directed by Gareth Edwards, who previously wrote, directed and created visual effects for 2010 indie kaiju/road trip movie Monsters. Concerning the teaser, Edwards told the SDCC audience, "I wanted to see this movie this way all my life." The director continued, "I've never worked this hard and this long that lasted this few seconds since I lost my virginity."


"We're going to take it seriously. If this really hapened, what would it be like? It's very grounded [and] realistic." 


“There is nothing sci-fi about this movie,” Edwards said. "If this really happened, what would this be like?"



Drew Pearce (Iron Man 3) signed onto the project in October for a rewrite of the script. David Callahan (The Expendables), David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight) and Max Borenstein (The Seventh Son) scripted earlier versions.

 

According to Variety, the polish wasn't being done because studio Legendary Pictures has any major problems with the script; it wanted to age up the characters so that they fit the prototype of the actors they would like to target.

 

Casting is expected to begin soon with the movie slated for May 2014.

At least it isn't as bad as Morrisey making everyone working at a venue or TV station or whatever refrain from eating meat 24 hours before he appears there. ;D
