Fans Will Appear In The Hobbit!
Guillermo del Toro had a Q&A session with MTV and revealed some rather good news for Hobbit fans.
“Who do I have to kill or sleep with to get a role as an extra?” user Mike Moore asked.
“Oh my god, well that’s a good question only in that it’s asked often,” del Toro said, chuckling. “[But] I believe as the film comes to happen, in either of the two films, [fans] have a good chance of being there.”
“Sleep with a lot of people if you can! That’s a very good piece of advice. But don’t bribe anyone. It will be wasted money,” del Toro said, laughing. “We will set some rules and some contests and some fans will definitely get the chance of being extras. Go and apply for those roles!”
Contests will be the better option for Hobbit fans as there is more chance of Gimli getting a back, crack and sac wax than a Hobbit fan sleeping with anyone.
The Transforming Aircraft-Carrier That Never Was
Remember when Michael Bay revealed that his Awesome idea to have a transforming aircraft-carrier in Transformers was cut due to budgetary concerns? Well, apparently the idea was more than just an idea, because Transformers artist Tim Flattery recently released a batch of his concept art from the original film, and one of the pieces shows a aircraft carrier which transforms into a massive Decepticon (or is that Autobot Broadside?). How cool is that?
Bay teased last year, that the idea might end up “maybe [in] another movie, that’ll get the fans talking!” But earlier this year producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura denied rumors that the idea would find a home in the sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

Wade Robson on Star Search
I know fans of So You Think You Can Dance have noticed that one of the best choreographers from show is absent this season. We know why Shane Sparks isn’t on the program this summer, but what about Wade Robson? Many fans of the show agree that he has put together some of fiercest couple routines and group performances that So You Think You Can Dance has ever seen.
Unfortunately, I don’t know where Wade Robson is. Believe me, if I find out if he’s coming back to Fox’s hit show, you TV readers will be the first to know. I thought in the meantime we could enjoy some of his other work, including his performance on Star Search as a little boy. It’s adorable.Here’s Wade Robson on Star Search in 1990:
And here’s another tribute to Michael Jackson from The Wade Robson Project:
I love watching him dance. His movements are so fluid. You can see Michael Jackson’s influence in his SYTYCD choreography too.
So You Think You Can Dance airs on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. and Thursdays at 9 p.m. on FOX.
