· Sony Pictures Classics has picked up North American distribution rights to Roman Polanski's Carnage, which is based on the play God of Carnage and stars Jodie Foster, Kate Winslet, John C. Reilly and Christoph Waltz (All seen above in the best picture ever). Now, Polanski is reportedly considering directing an adaptation of a New Yorker article titled True Crime as his next project.

· According to Neve Campbell: "There are sequels and all theses prequels to all the sequels. It's a terrible situation, it truly is. It makes me sad because there are so many great stories out there waiting to be told." My sentiments exactly! You can catch Campbell in um, Scream 4 this month. [NZ Herald News]

· Surprise! The alleged naked picture of Elizabeth Taylor that surfaced just days after she passed away probably wasn't Elizabeth Taylor. [The Telegraph]

· Zach Galifianakis will not be starring with Ryan Reynolds in R.I.P.D. because of scheduling issues. However, there's still plenty of good news for fans of supernatural cops. First, Movieline favorite Robert Schwentke is still directing! (Schwentke! Schwentke!) Second, Maniac Cop is still available on DVD! No way R.I.P.D. will top the tagline, "You have the right to remain silent... forever!" [Deadline]

· If that's not enough supernatural cop news for you, Willem Dafoe is apparently up for the role of Sheriff Wyatt Porter in the film Odd Thomas, which is based on Dean Koontz's recurring character who uses clairvoyance to help solve crimes. Yep, supernatural cops are the new aliens. [Variety]

· Have you been wondering how accurate child birth scenes are in films? Salon has launched an investigation just for you. Apparently, exaggerated scenes from movies like Rosemary's Baby and Nine Months are making women decide to go for an epidural before they even get pregnant. [Salon]

· Disney is close to giving the green light to Ice Cube's gritty, urban drama set in the culture of tricked out cars called Chrome and Paint. Though, Cube is now retooling the film from a hard-R to a PG-13 rating, so I guess we can just call it a normal urban drama from now on. [Deadline]
