WTF?

Noel "tidybeard" Edmonds says he has RSI (or Work Related Upper Limb Disorder (WRULD) as it's properly known) through picking up the phone on Deal or No Deal. I think it's more likely due to counting the money he's made from it. You have to admire how he spins a five minute premise into a forty-five minute, almost surreal experience.
Jumping on the bandwagon of "we can't risk something new let's rehash something old" that pervades hollywood nowadays, they've remade The Wicker Man, with Nicholas Cage in the lead role. If you want, you can catch the trailer here. That they've actually made the thing is the true horror. While we're with Nick Cage, he's also the lead in the movie version of Marvel comics Ghost Rider (trailer here). On this admittedly brief look, I think it'll fall into the "Hulk", rather than "Spidey", camp of conversions....
