This week on Film Junk, Diablo Cody’s recent rant about the Diablo Cody backlash sparked plenty of discussion, as did Adam’s article on Top 10 Movie Douchebags. Speaking of douchebags, Brett Ratner somehow found himself in the news once again, as he is apparently under consideration to direct the upcoming Conan movie (what we didn’t know, however, is that he’s only one of a handful of names being considered). Vin Diesel signed on for a third xXx movie, while Jude Law is reportedly close to signing on to play Dr. Watson. Also, the new Bond theme song leaked online this week, and hey guess what… they might do a sequel to Watchmen! What else is new?
