THR.com is reporting that the Farrely brothers (There’s Something about Mary, Dumb & Dumber) are directing “The Three Stooges,” scheduled for release in 2010.

Casting is rumored to be  as thus:

Moe: Benicio del Toro

Larry: Sean Penn

Curley (the fat bald one): Jim Carrey – at least he is in talks to play Curley

Surprisingly, I think that Penn and del Toro can pull it off. Carrey on the other hand is no Curley.

If it were me, I would cast Don Rickles, if he is up for it. Maybe an unknown could be found.

I like Jim Carrey, I just think there is too much Jim Carrey in him to portray Curley.

Why am I posting this? It’s gossip. It’s trashy journalism. However, it is related to tech, social networking and most other stuff we cover here on talkingDigital. Telegraph.co.uk has all the juicy details.

According to this article in the Dallas Observer blog, Unfair Park, Blockbuster is blaming their $359.7 million loss for last quarter on the lack of good movies to rent.

You see, previously numbers had been higher because of titles like, Atonement and I am Legend.

I must say I agree, I would rather pay Netflix a monthly subscription and see all the crappy movies I want for $9/mo. as opposed to $5 for a single crappy movie. Better yet, I can stream tons of crappy movies on Hulu for free.
