"We were earning our living together, this young woman and I, we made a rather good living, I must say."

Apparently he almost helmed Basic Instinct 2, but he script was rejected for being “too interesting.” Where would Sharon Stone be now if he had? Oh, the humanity. Also up: American Gangsters, the Son of Dracula, and that hot chick from Transformers is set to play a cheerleader who kills boys due to demonic possession. It’s a comedy, yo.
• And the Hooksexup Video Blog brings us some very special public service announcements…Please, eat your crackers responsibly.
