Not really geek news, but this had me rolling - a well-meaning but misguided Italian woman attempts to restore a fresco in her local church with hilarious results :

Wasnt that from a Bean movie?[/quote]
Yes but Mr.Bean managed to get away with it scott-free. She said she had permission to carry out the restoration because nobody tried to stop her.
That’s like saying bank robbers have permission to commit an armed robbery if nobody tries to resist.
Brilliant Cap deleted scene from The Avengers blu-ray:
Who says that Marvel can’t deliver the pathos? Joss Whedon could’ve made Captain America 2 out of the deleted scenes alone… and they should’ve let him.
The ‘waitress with a crush’ gets saved by Cap in the theatrical cut. Stan Lee giving dating advice is a bonus.
Haha agreed! I got to say I am surprised they are releasing multi platform and the fact that I thought if Hideo ever made another Metal Gear Solid game it would have been on the "next, next, gen systems, graphics look seriously impressive… Must be a really far release date though like thinking fall of 13 probally in time for christmas of next year, It is open world gameplay too thats crazy!! I still think MGS4 was the best game I have played as of yet.

MGS4 was amazing! I am stoked for Ground Zeroes! Anyone else here getting Halo 4 in November?

Wasn’t the original draft of avengers very cap centric?

Yes, there’s supposedly about 30 mins of extra footage with Cap acting as a narrator of sorts and a reuinion with Peggy in the present day (hinted at in the clip). Whedon scrapped it because it unbalanced the movie. I’d like to see the cut as a special feature at some point(I don’t know whether they plan to release the full cut on DVD or if the footage will be packaged as an extra. Whedon did say though that the theatrical cut is his director’s cut)
At a very early stage of script development, RDJ pushed hard for Avengers to be focused on Stark, but Whedon couldn’t make it work. He said Cap was the perfect touchstone for the audience because his experience of ordinary life was as alien to him as the movie would be to someone who’d never had any contact with the comics or the previous movies.
Gonna go pre-order this bad boy right now.[/quote]
I like how they made mention to the avgn he is a huge tmnt fan and did a bunch of videos on the turtles. I might have to order this since I used to love the cartoons and the comics
