Pirates of the Carribean

The fourth installment of Disney’s highly popular Pirates of the Caribbean series made $35 million in theaters Friday. The film may be this year’s biggest opener so far.
According to Inside Movies this installment of the series has made less than the previous films. Dead Man’s Chest earned $55.8 million in theaters on its debut and At World’s End brought in $42.9 million.
The film series is gaining large profits overseas where it has earned $92.1 million in three days.

British actor Ian McShane is likely to join the cast of Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Even though concrete details about the film adaptation of ‘The Hobbit’ are very much undecided, Orlando Bloom has shown extreme interest in wanting to reprise his role as Legolas, the quiet, quick with a bow elf from the previous movies.

There’s just one problem I see with this. Being a fan of the book, I’m pretty sure Legolas does not actually have a part in ‘The Hobbit.’ Of course, since elves live to be hundreds of years old, he probably would have been alive during the events of the story, so writing him in is somewhat plausible if the writers choose to deviate from the actual book.
