Rumors, Dumb Criminals & More

• From Dark Horizons: Looks like Tuesday's rumor about "Big Trouble in Little China 2" was just a rumor. That's too bad since it was such a good rumor!
  
• There's been a lot of discussion about Mel Gibson's next film, "The Passion." Mel hosted a special preview and the crowd reaction was very strong and very positive. I, for one, can't wait to see it!
  
• The Z Review posted an interesting tidbit: "There's no truth to the rumor that Sly Stallone is attached to star in "Beverly Hills Cop 4". The idea did come up, and I believe it was mentioned to Sly as part of a new 3-pic deal Para has talked to him about but word is he ... passed." Interesting to note that Paramount may have floated a 3 picture deal at Sly! [A tip of the hat to Dark Horizons]
  
• From Yahoo's "Notable Quotes for today: "I went to check with my 6-year-old about whether I should take the job... . They (his children) don't like to sit through my other films. But this they think is great." -- SYLVESTER STALLONE telling The Philadelphia Inquirer about playing the villain in "Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over."
  
• OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - What was that again? Julia Roberts accused Richard Simmons of stealing her car and wanted Ronald Reagan to arrest him. Believe it or not this is a true story! [Although those named above are NOT the celebrities but every day people caught up in life.]
  
• FORT WORTH, Texas - A bank robber made the ultimate bad career move when he wrote a holdup note — on the back of his resume. OK... so now he has something else to add to his resume.
