apocalypsosSpotted on IMDB ...
Teen actress Lindsay Lohan's breasts have been digitally reduced for forthcoming Disney film Herbie: Fully Loaded, to avoid offending family audiences. Test screenings for the new movie, the fourth sequel to the 1968 film The Love Bug about a Volkswagen Beetle car with a mind of its own, indicated that some parents felt Lohan's character Maggie Peyton was too raunchy for a children's film. Disney technicians were forced to plough through numerous scenes - especially those showing the busty actress jumping up and down at a motor racing track, reducing her breasts by two cup sizes and raising revealing necklines on her T-shirts. Amused at her digital bosom reduction, Lohan says, "I don't know how Renee Zellweger kept swelling and shrinking for Bridget Jones. It's no fun. Bring on the computer guys."

Reading that makes my head hurt.
EDIT: Casting news per AICN for the Poseidon Adventure remake. Richard Dreyfuss playing a dumped gay guy! Kurt Russell playing the Ernest Borgnine part, except with an Emmy-Rossum-shaped daughter instead of an ex-prostitute wife! Dude, I adore the original to pieces, but if they have those guys, plus that rumor about Clive Owen playing SuperPriest, I would soooooooo see this. (Especially if they do what they did in the book and kill the annoying kid, who I might add is the only cast member listed on IMDb. The storyline about the weird rape of the older sister, though ... that I don't know if I'd want to see. Not because of the rape so much as because the dumbass rapist runs off and falls into a hole in the wreckage and the older sister ends the movie hoping he knocked her up so that there's a piece of him left behind. Um, EW.)
OTHER EDIT: Oh, for crying out loud. According to the IMDb forum for the remake, Clive Owen is out and Josh Lucas is in for ... somebody, although from looking at everybody else, I'm terrified it's supposed to be the Gene Hackman parallel role, and ... uh, no. Also, it says something about Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas playing the singer. If any of that is true, excuse me while I go cuddle my DVD.
THIS IS MY OTHER BROTHER EDIT: Wait, now they're not even basing it on the original movie or the book? Oh, fuck it.
