    I expect FIFA to step in soon... and let them host the 2026 World Cup.

    The YouTube link turned up. Better late than never!

    Stephanie Leonidas was born in London, England on 14 February 1984 to a Greek Cypriot father and a British mother. Her brother Dimitri Leonidas and sister Georgina Leonidas are also actors, and her other sister Helena is a teacher. She currently plays the role of Irisa Nyira on Defiance. Leonidas started acting in community theatre when she was eight; at nine she acquired an agent and began to work in television. Notable credits include the television drama Daddy's Girl, the soap opera Night and Day and a 2004 episode of Doc Martin in which she plays Melanie, a local Portwenn 15-year-old girl who develops an unhealthy fascination with the surgeon. More recently she has starred in Neil Gaiman and Dave Mckean's MirrorMask in the dual roles of Helena and the Dark Princess, and a BBC adaptation of Dracula, as well as Crusade in Jeans. Her theatrical roles have included Adela in a production of Lorca's The House of Bernarda Alba at Coventry's Belgrade Theatre, and Dani in The Sugar Syndrome, staged at the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs, London, in 2003. In this latter production, reviewer Lizzie Loveridge said she gave a performance "way beyond her years". She has also starred in the BBC made for TV film Atlantis, which aired on BBC one and BBC one HD on 8 May 2011. In 2011, she was in a play for the Transatlantyk Festival called "Influence", written by Shem Bitterman. More recently, Leonidas has once again teamed up with Dave Mckean to work on a new film entitled Luna, expected to be released sometime in 2013.

    I agree, and I think casting a new Batman is the one thing they'll really have to nail if there's going to be any hope for this. They'll also need to be confident enough to give him his own reboot first, because it'd be extremely difficult to bring him in during the events of a collective movie. As for Green Lantern, I wouldn't be surprised if Reynolds was already signed up for a multi-movie deal with a view to the eventual release of Justice League. I'm not his biggest fan, but he packs a bit of star power and brought some humour to otherwise iffy superhero movies like Blade Trinity and Wolverine. Though of course, my expectations would be far, far higher for JL than for either of those films.

    ^What with all the recent talk of a potential Justice League movie, I'm beginning to think Jaimie would make a great Wonder Woman.

    Here's another recent one from the set, of messrs Hoult and Jackman.

    The two recently released (and very cool) movie posters.

    Official trailer #3 and featurette. I can't help feeling that the bar has been raised in the 'superhero goes off grid and grows big beard' stakes.

    As a precaution, I've placed this in spoiler tags.

    A nice one for fans of Fleet Foxes and Grizzly Bear, by Half Moon Run.

    ^I haven't heard a great deal of the old stuff but I'm familiar with their signature sound, of course. Judging by this, it's still very much intact.
  18. I'll be there.

  20. Hello, good evening and welcome!
  21. As with any hairstyle or item of clothing, a lot depends on who's wearing it. For Julia Stegner or Isabeli Fontana, I greatly prefer the 'long and parted in the middle' look, but for someone like Zooey Deschanel, it's hard to imagine her sporting any other style than the fringe. In fact, witnessing a few recent pictures of her with it swept to the side triggered a slight malfunction somewhere in my brain. Respectfully disagree on Karlie’s current cut though, I actually think she suits the shorter hair more.

    Quite honestly, the only memory I really have of his spell at Hull was from the time we played them at the KC (he got himself involved in a decidedly childish spat with Alan Hutton, which led to a double sending-off), but like any self-respecting armchair observer attempting to run the rule over a potential new signing, I’ve been watching assorted videos of his AZ exploits on YouTube. He looks to have all the necessary ingredients to make a go of life in the Premier League - pace, quick feet, brute strength, finishing - even a somewhat unlikely talent for curling free-kicks into the top corner. In a perfect world, he’d do for us what Lukaku did for West Brom last year, though of course, time will tell!

    I'm browsing with Firefox, and it looks alright to me.

    The 4-3-3 system seemed to serve AVB pretty well towards the back end of last season, and a midfield trio of Sandro, Paulinho and Dembele behind a front three of Bale, Lennon and AN Other sounds to me like a winner. If you could also find the time to sell us Danny Rose at a knockdown price, then all the better.
