Empire has been bringing us really good coverage of the new Wolverine film. As part of its Wolverine coverage in the magazine’s new issue, Empire has debuted this first official photo of Taylor Kitsch (“Friday Night Lights”) as Gambit.
He isn’t quite how I saw Gambit but I will keep a very open mind because I loved the way X-Men was handled for the films. Read the whole story and see the photo by clicking below.

Baz Luhrmann’s wannabe epic Australia has tanked on its first day at the US Box Office. According to news.com.au, Variety and the Herald Sun, the film made $3.4 million on its first day (Thanksgiving). This works out to an average of $1318 per screen. Compare this to Twilight’s takings of an average $35.055 per screen and we start to realise that it really didn’t open.
Even Oprah’s endorsement couldn’t get bums on seats it would seem.
Thanksgiving is a tough weekend at the US box office and Australia was competing with Twilight, Four Christmases (Reese Witherspoon’s new film that has been renamed Four Holidays in Australia), Transporter 3 and Quantum of Solace.
I am going to see Australia tonight, I’ll review it on the next podcast (episode 17) in detail.

This was a pretty neat little article in the Sydney Morning Herald. Also, if you go to the Dell site you could win a computer.

Empire magazine has revealed some new shots (including the cover) from “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”.
Forget the movie “Australia,” Hugh Jackman was born to play Wolverine! He had this to say about the new film, “There’s a scene in the first X-Men movie, where Wolverine’s introduced in a bar, fighting in a cage, and you felt that he did this every night of his life. If this movie is successful, you should feel that this guy can walk straight off the end of this film and into that bar.”
I don’t know about you, but as a comic geek (and a huge Marvel fan and a even bigger X-Men fan) I am suddenly excited about this. Please don’t mess this up!
