Midweek Entertainment report 3/24/10

The Human Torch becomes Captain America, Pirates replaces Keira with Penelope, Miley mentors the Idols and Ol' Joe drops the F-Bomb

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Midweek Entertainment report!

The crowd goes nuts, just like in Rex Manning's head!

Chris Evans has been cast as the new Captain America, set to be released in May 2011. The guy played the annoying Human Torch in the Fantastic Four movies and was the Freddie Prinze knockoff in Not Another Teen Movie. Anyways, THIS GUY for Captain America? Over Chace Crawford? Really? But the crazy thing is that the movie studio signed Evans to a NINE picture deal. he is going to be in NINE MOVIES? Really? Throw him in an Iron Man sequel or something? WOW?! NINE MOVIES....

For the next Pirates movie, apparently Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom are out and Johnny Depp gets a girlfriend. Yep, Penelope Cruz has signed on to be Capt Jack's love interest. OK, two beautiful people (and not the Gideon-type of BPs), I can see that. Also, Jack will go up against Blackbeard, played by Deadwood's Ian McShane. I never saw No.3, so I'm not certain how this one will turn out. No.2 was turribull enough to turn me off of the series.

Hey, Miley Cyrus was the Idol mentor last night. I wonder what advice she gave them: Have a quasi-famous one-hit-county-music-wonder, father who then forces you down Disney's throats so you then get hooked up with Nick Sparks? Is that how it works? I didn't watch, only because I will NOT support Miley's takeover of the world.

Finally, Joe Biden was caught on camera saying to Obama that the health care plan was a big f-ing deal. Joe, you aren't so good with the words and the saying things, are you big guy? Maybe you stop talking for a while?

Thanks everybody have a great day and tune in to NPR later for my Braves season preview, likely around 3:45ish on WABE 90.1 FM. SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION!
