After a slew of roles were recently cast, Jessica Biel has become the latest name to join Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine.
Biel will play Viper, who'll be familiar to fans of the comic. Also known as Madame Hydra, Viper has been an enemy to both the Avengers and the X-Men, and she has had an allegiance to the Silver Samurai, which will see her slot nicely into the sequel's Japan setting.
Snaky in more than just name, Viper's loyalties have been known to wobble, giving her something of a Catwoman 'friend-or-foe' duality.
The Wolverine picks up with the amnesiac antihero in Japan. Not only will this provide the opportunity for some insanely cool bad guys and spectacular backdrops, it's also a way of getting some distance from the shambolic X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Back from the show... Had to give the teen twerp sitting behind me a talking to, since he kept kicking my seat.
Very good finale to the trilogy, but the villain Bane wasn't anywhere near as threatening as Heath Leger's Joker... And Bane was hard to understand most of the time with that mask he was wearing, even with the (obvious) dubbing.
The twist at the end and the epilogue were very interesting, but since it's the conclusion of the trilogy, does it mean anything?
I saw an action movie from Indonesia named The Raid: Redemption. The story is pretty standard: take down the crime/drug lord on his own turf. The movie follows a SWAT unit on their mission. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys mindless action. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1899353/

I went to go watch this documentary last night with a buddy. It is fantastic. Excellently made, informative, and really captivating. The sushi showcased is simply sublime.
The dedication and the utter devotion of this man to the art of sushi is awe-inspiring.
I highly recommend it to foodies and general devotees of Japanese culture alike.
Just watched this on Netflix. It was excellent! Jiro is one amazing man!

As if to prove that the Japanese aren't the only ones that came make cheesy monster movies, the Koreans came up Yongary, Monster from the Deep. And the whole movie is on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zLOTI6wFNM
The monster doesn't show up until about the 28 minute mark, but rest assured there's plenty of low-budget action prior to that, and you won't want to miss a minute of it!!

LOL, I saw a commercial for that movie on Antenna TV... They had a Jerry Lewis movie marathon yesterday.
