Arnold Schwarzenegger continues to "be back," and today he proved as much by signing onto yet another film. This time it's the David Ayer-directed "Ten," which sounds curiously a lot like "The Raid."
Also, Martin Scorsese gets tortured by The Dictator and we learned about anatomy from an "Alien" xenomorph in today's Dailies!

Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis are not playing nice in "The Campaign," and their latest political ads are showing just that.
Instead of first releasing a trailer for the movie, the folks behind Jay Roach's latest film are opting to play up the flick like the epic showdown it promises to be. "The Campaign" is appropriately about the competing campaigns between two rival politicians—Ferrell and Galifianakis—seeking a South Carolina congressional seat.
The movie's Facebook page is up and running, and the competitors -- Cam Brady and Marty Huggins -- have their own personal pages featuring the previously mentioned ads. We're definitely torn as to who deserves our vote.

The stars of "Star Trek 2" took a break from filming the highly-anticipated sequel and headed out for a bite to eat. Where did they go to unwind, you ask? Hooters. We bet the actors had a jolly good time. Zachary Quinto tweeted, "i am at a hooters in northern california watching a boxing game. i have never felt more at home. cc: @simonpegg."
If we could grab food and drinks with one cast, these guys would definitely be at the top of our list. But they don't just hang out during mealtimes (despite Simon Pegg's morning after tweet, "Eggs with Benedict"), Pegg also let followers know about his gym time with Chris Pine. "Right, me and Pine are off to the gym to lift heavy things and grunt and sweat in a veritable Kirk/Scotty slash fest of homoerotic exercise," he wrote. Looks like Benedict Cumberbatch isn't the only one looking forward to racy fanfic.

According to a new interview, James Cameron plans on only making his own movies for the rest of his career. For the time being, that seems to mean making his "Avatar" series.
In an interview with The New York Times, Cameron said that he is solely working on these movies since they've been such a focus of his life for so long.
"I’ve divided my time over the last 16 years over deep ocean exploration and filmmaking. I’ve made two movies in 16 years, and I’ve done eight expeditions," he said. "Last year I basically completely disbanded my production company’s development arm. So I’m not interested in developing anything. I’m in the 'Avatar' business. Period. That’s it. I’m making 'Avatar 2,' 'Avatar 3,' maybe 'Avatar 4,' and I’m not going to produce other people’s movies for them. I’m not interested in taking scripts."

Ridley Scott fans should rejoice at this latest "Prometheus" news: presale ticket stubs indicate that the upcoming Fox film will be rated R.
The revelation came (via Collider) when an IMDB user posted an image of their advanced midnight screening ticket for the movie with an R rating clearly displayed. There had been some speculation that the film would be PG-13 in an attempt to draw in a wider audience, but we're glad that it will have the same mature rating as its predecessor, "Alien."
However, there is some other news floating around pertaining to "Prometheus" and Guillermo Del Toro's "At The Mountains of Madness" that is bumming us out a bit.

May the Fourth be with you! Crack open an old issue of "Bantha Tracks" for International Star Wars Day! Or it's new name: AVENGERS DAY!
— KevinSmith (@ThatKevinSmith) May 4, 2012
It could not be a better day for franchise fans everywhere. Not only has "Marvel's The Avengers" finally assembled in theaters, but it's "Star Wars" Day! May the fourth be with you, friends!
A slew of actors are tweeting about both grand events, including Tom Hiddleston who plays Loki. He asked fans in the USA, Russia, Canada and Indonesia to assemble to theaters to check out the flick. (You might want to listen to him so you don't get Loki'd.) And "Begin Human's" Sam Huntington who wrote: "Happy Star Wars day T-Woks!! And remember: if you play with your light sabers too much you'll get Wookie palms." Duly noted.
