New details are coming out about the long-awaited sequel to the movie "Tron." AICN has all of the spoilers. The original movie was about a hacker who is literally abducted into the world of a computer and forced to participate in gladiatorial games. That was 1982! Now think about all of the new dangers of the internet in 2009: viruses, worms, midget porn, Nigerian Scams, and TheView.com. It's all pretty frightening.
We don't have clear footage from the sequel yet, but we do have video of what we only wish was an audtion clip.

The 10 Funniest Casting Decisions You Didn't Know About
Michael J. Fox wasn't the original choice to star as Mart McFly in "Back in the Future." They actually shot many scenes first with actor Eric Stoltz, but his chemistry with Christopher Lloyd ("Doc Brown") just wasn't working. You've probably heard this story before. But you haven't heard of these other casting decisions in Hollywood that didn't work out for obvious reasons. Here are the 10 Funniest Casting Decisions You Didn't Know About.
10. Shaquille O'Neal as Paul Rusesabagina in "Hotel Rwanda"
Shaq was awesome in his movie "Kazaam," and producers of "Hotel Rwanda" wanted to have a high-profile celebrity star in their film to draw mainstream audiences to a film about genocide. However, Shaq was unable to capture the emotion of the character as his vocabulary at the time was only up to 36 words. Afer ad-libbing several lines about "being fouled under the baskey," producers had to let him go.
9. Steve Buscemi as Spider-Man
Steve Buscemi is one of our finest actors, but the choice to cast him as Spider-Man was a huge mistake. Despite 9 months in the gym, this is the best he could to fill out the Spider-Man costume. The breaking point for producers came when Buscemi's teeth ripped through five Spider-Man masks. Buscemi still refuses to fix his teeth.
This should have been a warning sign about Mel Gibson. While playing the role of Oskar Schindler, Gibson laughed his ass off everytime a Jew was killed. He didn't make it past the first day.
1. Clay Aiken as Randy "The Ram" Robinson in "The Wrestler"

8. Mel Gibson as Oskar Schindler in "Schindler's List"
This should have been a warning sign about Mel Gibson. While playing the role of Oskar Schindler, Gibson laughed his ass off everytime a Jew was killed. He didn't make it past the first day.
7. Flavor Fav as "Troy Bolton" in "High School Musical"
Before they decided on Zac Efron, producers tried out Flavor Flav for the role of Troy Bolton in "High School Musical" to bring the film a more urban feel. However, Mr. Flav refused to remove the giant clock around his neck. One producer said, "For continuity purposes, every time we made a cut in editing, the time on his clock would skip forward or jump pack. It just didn't work out." Also, Flavor Fav reportedly wasn't happy on the set, saying, "Don't get me wrong. I love bitches, but this is way too many in one movie."
6. Paris Hilton as the Virgin Mary in "The Passion of the Christ"
Paris Hilton did a screen test for the controversial Mel Gibson film "The Passion of the Christ." However, she quickly discovered she had auditioned for the wrong role. She reportedly said, "Oh, not this Mary. The other Mary, that one that was a filthy whore."
5. Rosie O'Donnell as "Sue Storm" in "Fantastic Four"
Producers wanted to create a lot of comedy in "Fantastic Four" and picked funny woman Rosie O'Donnell to play the role of "Sue Storm." However, the cinematographer objected to O'Donnell as the Ben Grimm character completely disappeared when Rosie stood in front of him.
4. Larry the Cable Guy as Harvey Milk in "Milk"
Larry the Cable Guy, whose real name is Daniel Whitney, attempted his first dramatic role as Harvey Milk. But Larry didn't quite get the message of the movie when he observed that there "sure were a lot of fags on this movie set, don't you think?"
3. John Goodman as "Andrew Beckett" in "Philadelpia"
"Philadelphia" was a touching and truly amazing story. But before Tom Hanks signed up to play a lawyer, Andrew Beckett, who is fired by a conservative law firm because of AIDS. Goodman had challenged himself to lose an incredible amount of weight for this AIDS-stricken character. However, this was also the year that McDonalds came out with the McRib and Goodman actually gained weight.
2. Amy Winehouse as Queen Elizabeth II in "Elizabeth: The Golden Age"
Director Shekhar gave singer Amy Winehouse her first dramatic role in a feature film. However, Winehouse's drug problems spread to the movie set.
1. Clay Aiken as Randy "The Ram" Robinson in "The Wrestler"
Director Darren Aronofsky wanted to really challenge himself by originally choosing Clay Aiken to play the role of beaten down wrestler. "I wanted to prove that as a great director, you can take any actor and make them thrive in that role." Unfortunately, Aiken didn't work out too well in the wrestling scenes, insisting on creating his own signature wrestling move called "The Rim Job."

The 10 Wackiest Japanese Commercials Starring American Actors
They're American movie stars who are more than willing to sell their image with a product -- on Japanese television, that is. The commercials may air halfway around the world, but with the magic of youtube, we get to see Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, Nicolas Cage and others star in these funny commercials. Here are the 10 Wackiest Japanese Commercials Starring American Celebrities.
10. Hulk Hogan Singing
He became a reality star after all of those years of tanning and oiling his body to tangle with other men. That was just in his bedroom. Hulk, we kid, we kid. Hogan shot this wacky Japanese ad while singing to a baby. What it's for? We have no friggin' idea.
9. Nicolas Cage overacting
We've seen the overacting of Nicolas Cage in, well, every single movie he's ever been in. Watch "The Family Man" for an especially touching performance. He brings his overacting skills to this crazy Japanese commercial.
8. Harrison Ford Creepy Ad
This is one of those ads that really creep us out. Why is Harrison Ford naked with a middle-aged Japanese dude in sauna?
7. Michael Jackson
Before he went completely nuts and totally white, Michael Jackson was dancing off the wall and told Japanese viewers in this commercial that love is his message. Yes, man boy love.
6. Wham!
Years before he was caught in a Los Angeles men's room looking for a gay blowjob, George Michaels was appearing in the gayest commercial on Japanese television.
#5. Kiefer Sutherland
Kiefer Sutherland's "Jack Bauer" character will eventually hit the big screen. One of the complaints we have about the show "24" is that you never see Bauer eating or taking a dump, that's until now. The eating part, that is.
4. Natalie Portman
Okay, this one is not super wacky, but we decided to include it because Natalie Portman looks super hot!
3. Tommy Lee Jones
Wow, Tommy Lee. You really went all out to perfect your Japanese accent. We're super impressed by your huge acting effort in this commercial.
2. John Travlota
This one of those commercials with John Travolta that you watch and then feel the intense desire to smash your computer screen. It's that amazing!
1. Arnold Schwarzenegger
Finally, there's the governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Watch as he makes a total ass of himself in the wackiest Japanese commercial starring an American celebrity. All that's missing is an appearance from Mr. Freeze.
10. Hulk Hogan Singing
He became a reality star after all of those years of tanning and oiling his body to tangle with other men. That was just in his bedroom. Hulk, we kid, we kid. Hogan shot this wacky Japanese ad while singing to a baby. What it's for? We have no friggin' idea.

The 10 Funniest Bad Spoofs of Bad Movies
No doubt about it, these are some bad movies. But what happens when we find spoofs of these bad movies that are, well, bad spoofs? We post them, that's what! The spoofs are funny, but it's more of a "we're laughing at you" instead of "with you." Here are the 10 Funniest Bad Spoofs of Bad Movies.
10. "Batman & Robin"
"Batman & Robin" was a huge bust with George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell under the direction of Joel Schumacher. As bad as this spoof is, it may be better than the actual movie.
9. "Pearl Harbor"
Michael Bay dropped a bomb on moviegoers with "Pearl Harbor." Even Ben Affleck's powerful acting abilities couldn't save the film. As you're about to see, the guy in this spoof puts a huge effort into the video.
8. "Scooby Doo"
The big screen version of Scooby Doo was an expensive turd of a movie with a computer-generated dog. The kids in this spoof try to show us how it's done without those fancy effects or any talent whatsoever.
7. "Godzilla"
In "Godzilla," starring Matthew Broderick, the monster attacks New York City with an awful screenplay. For some viewers, this film was more painful than 9/11. Enjoy this Matthew Broderick-free spoof of the giant lizard.
6. "The Incredible Hulk"
We'll take Lou Ferrigno's television Hulk over the big screen CGI Hulk any day. What kind of clever satire can a bunch a kids come up with to spoof the Hulk? Let's just say video cameras shouldn't be made available to everyone.
5. "Hannah Montana: The Movie"
"Hannah Montana: The Movie" is not even out yet but it will suck -- unless you're a teenager or a creepy old guy. If we were going to do a Hannah Montana spoof, would we dress up a guy as a girl? You betcha!
4. "Speed Racer"
"Speed Racer," starring Emile Hirsch and Christina Ricci, bombed badly at the box office. Now,
the kids in this spoof of "Speed Racer" are destined for greatness. (We think they may be retarded so we wanted to say something nice.)
3. "Basic Instinct 2"
Ah, the aging vagina of Sharon Stone. Who could forget it? It's burned into our consciousness. Forget Stone and get ready to view the strangest movie spoof ever made.
2. "Snakes On a Plane"
All that hype and the movie stunk the joint out. Now here comes the spoof with a decent lookalike actor, real snakes and -- oh yeah -- they forgot to include some funny ideas.
1. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
We still don't understand why "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" got an Oscar nod. A "Forest Gump" ripoff without Tom Hanks' talents. Still, we're glad the film got made or we would never have seen this "Benjamin Button" spoof.
10. "Batman & Robin"
"Batman & Robin" was a huge bust with George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell under the direction of Joel Schumacher. As bad as this spoof is, it may be better than the actual movie.
9. "Pearl Harbor"
