Apparently Marc Webb fails at being a director already. He decided to choose Lindsay Lohan as the new Mary Jane. I can only imagine who will play Peter Parker. Maybe it will be Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner or just throw in Justin Bieber (seriously hate that little dude and his high-pitched girly voice) just to piss me off. Maybe we can have a twisted romance with Gwen Stacy being played as Miley Cyrus. Seriously, this news has made me lose all faith in any reboots, possibly any superhero movies that contain superheroes I actually like. I really don't know what Webb was thinking considering this was what he had to say about it:
"Lindsay hasn't really been up to much in the past few years — even if you count the straight-to-DVD Labor Pains — but when I think Mary Jane Watson, Lindsay Lohan immediately comes to mind. Well, OK, maybe not the current version. But certainly the Mean Girls/Herbie version. She was available. She needs a reboot worse than this franchise. It just made sense."
Oh wait yes I do. He just picked her because he felt sorry for her sucking and being an alcoholic or something. I'm glad other directors don't just go with people because they're "available". I mean I'll give him the fact that Mean Girls was pretty funny, but I still can't see Cady Heron as being anything like Mary Jane unless he means when she was being a bitchy "plastic". We can only hope that this is a bad April Fools day joke.

Marvel fans should be weeping!
The big news today is that Disney plans on buying Marvel for 4 billion dollars. Some people say that Marvel fans should be rejoicing since this will get Marvel out into the general market. I am saying no way! Think about the good it did Transformers by using Shia Labeouf (former Disney teen in case you never watched Even Stevens). There's so many people jumping on the Transformers bandwagon now that it's ridiculous. I can only imagine how many people would jump on the Marvel bandwagon once Disney vouched for it. I'd think that a lot of people would start reading comic books and this could be good and bad. It could be good since higher sales would hopefully mean more and better comics. It could also be terribly bad since writers might get complacent and not have as high quality comics since so many bandwagon readers wouldn't demand it. Also some Marvel characters just aren't "Disney friendly," such as Stacy X. I mean come on she can manipulate pheromones, which enables her to be the biggest whore ever.
Hopefully if this deal goes down it will be a good thing for Marvel. I can imagine a sweet animated Marvel film and get really excited. But, I can also imagine them trying to squeeze Miley Cyrus or Ashley Tisdale into roles that they really don't belong in or even deserve to be considered for.

Worse than Cher as Catwoman
I Promised Comic Con stuff but something more dire has come to my attention. British newspaper The Globe is trying to say that Miley Cyrus auditioned for Batgirl. I have to say that this is worse than the Cher rumors I mentioned awhile back. According to the British newspaper,(Wasn't it also a crazy British newspaper that announced the Cher news? Yes, yes it was.) Miley showed up in costume and “stunned” the producers by spouting out her self-written lines for the part. I highly doubt that anything coherent could come out of Miley Cyrus' mouth, much less Batgirl lines that would impress Christopher Nolan.
Also, we have to take into consideration that Christopher Nolan doesn't like Robin at all, so there's no reason for him to want a Batgirl unless they're pushing for some sex appeal(and please tell me nobody thinks Miley Cyrus is sexy *shudders*). Besides, if they wanted that then they could just add Catwoman(just not Cher!). Seeing as Gary Oldman announced at Comic Con that Batman 3 starts shooting next year, I'm betting this is just Miley Cyrus'(or probably her dad's) sad attempt at attention. Either that, or it's just another crazy British newspaper. Either way, enjoy this awesome Batgirl picture I found :D.
