In the continuing quest to remake every Arnold Schwarzenegger movie ever made, Hollywood's now remaking Total Recall.
But check out this cast list. The role of Ahnold will be played by Colin Ferrell. Kate Beckinsale (Underworld) will play Ferrell's wife; Jessica Biel (Blade Trinity) his girlfriend. John Cho (Harold & Kumar, Star Trek) plays the rep that talks Ferrell into the implant process. Bryan Cranston (Malcolm In The Middle, Breaking Bad) is the lead villain. Ethan Hawke has a small undisclosed role. And Bill Nighy (Underworld, Love, Actually) is in talks to play Kuato, the revolutionary. The project is being directed by Len Wiseman (Underworld, Mr. Kate Beckinsale) and is in production right now.
I have to say, that's a whole lot of actors that I really like. Though I don't think anyone can replace the awesomeness that is Michael Ironside. Who's up for another Philip K. Dick flick?
Here's the original trailer in case you need a refresher:
So while you were getting all your last-minute Memorial Day weekend crap taken care of on Friday, Weezer was releasing their cover of Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" on YouTube.
I know lots of people are probably dying to see this trailer, but for me, I was more interested in hearing Trent Reznor and Karen O performing Led Zeppelin's "The Immigrant Song."

Today, a new version of the video was released that got rid of Bruno and the monkeys and replaced them with Leonard Nimoy. And can I just say how much I love the child-scaring, porno-mag-reading, middle-finger-giving, beer-drinking, fan-dissing, pot-smoking Spock?
And to get you ready for a weekend of fun in the sun, here's a trailer for the upcoming Shark Night 3D, a film about a great white (or several?) terrorizing a lake. Have fun!
