Tue, 22 July 2008  BATMAN star Christian Bale has been arrested by detectives investigating a claim of assault, police sources said today. Bale, 34, faces questioning over the claim — made by his own mother and sister. A Metropolitan Police spokeswoman said: “A 34-year-old man attended a central London police station this morning by appointment. “He was arrested in connection with an allegation of assault. He currently remains in custody.” Bale was arrested just hours after he attended the first European screening of the new Batman blockbuster, The Dark Knight. But he was able to attend the first European screening of new Batman blockbuster The Dark Knight in London’s West End. He is alleged to have lashed out on Sunday night at Park Lane’s Dorchester Hotel — where he has a suite. Mum Jenny, 61, and sister Sharon, 40, who lives in Dorset, went to a police station in Hampshire yesterday to lodge the allegation. The matter was referred to the Met Police. Detectives, well aware of last night’s glittering bash, took the decision not to approach Bale yesterday. But they were expected to make attempts to quiz the Wales-born actor today. I know what you're thinking: Batman's WELSH??? -- FuzzyDave

Sun, 20 July 2008 We all have our gaming Guilty Pleasures. Mine is Animal Crossing. I simply adore the game. It's so kawaii you need two bumps of insulin to play it. At E3 this week, Nintendo announced Animal Crossing: City Folk for the Wii -- supposedly due out November 16th or thereabouts. One of the features in this new game is the ability to transfer your character and accumulated items from your DS to the Wii. Here's the Official Nintendo footage from E3: Here's the presentation video: More videos can be found at gametrailers.com -- FuzzyDave Category: games -- posted at: 7:09 PM Comments[0] |
Sat, 19 July 2008  The latest report on the box office for Dark Knight have the film grossing $66.4 million on Friday, that's including the $18.5 million it took in on midnight/3 a.m. screenings (which beats the $16.9 million record set by Revenge of the Sith). Dark Knight is expected to take in well over $100 million this weekend. The question is, how much over 100 and will the film set a new record for biggest 3-day opening? The record to beat is Spider-Man 3, which bagged $151 million its opening weekend. As you can see, virtually every one of us at the GD Labs lowballed our prediction, making TheQuarterMexican the winner:
TheQuarterMexican: $120 We'll keep updating as new figures roll in. Saturday Update: Unofficial Saturday estimate: $48 million That puts the total to 114.4, which means DK needs to make $36.6 million to tie Spider-Man 3 Sunday Update: $155.3 million! NY Times story here. -- FuzzyDave Category: movie news -- posted at: 9:52 AM Comments[0] |

Mon, 7 July 2008  Justin Long and Drew Barrymore have amicably called it quits. Drew's rep confirmed it to People magazine. But cheer up, Justin... you'll bounce back in no time. You didn't really want that Tom Green tainted gal anyway. You can do better. But I got dibs on Megan Fox. Category: Justin Long -- posted at: 11:08 PM Comments[1] |
