David Goyer Talks Magneto, Jumper, Super Max, Invisible Man, and More

David S. Goyer is one busy man. No, let me rephrase that: I don’t know how anyone can work as hard or on as many projects at once the way David Goyer does. I swear there must be two or three Davids out there running around scripting “Magneto” and “Jumper” and scouting locations for “Magneto” [...]

The guys over at IESB, who has been plugged in to the studio system for some time and have gotten a lot of very good (and confirmed) bits about pretty much everything before anyone else does, brings you two more bits about the Justice League movie.

Shia LaBeouf as Yorick in Y: The Last Man?

It would appear that way. That is, if Shia LaBeouf wants to do it, chances are the Powers That Be will fall all over themselves to give the role to him. And why not? The kid has been churning out nothing but hits, from “Transformers” to “Disturbia”, to the upcoming “Indiana Jones” sequel. “Y: The [...]
