Joe here with the news of the weird.  Er, weekend.  Whatever.

Zombieland attacked the Box Office this past weekend and scored several million brains, to the tune of $24.7 milllion in earnings.  Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs fell to second place with $15.8 million (bringing it's three week total to $81.5 million).  Pixar's re-release of Toy Story and Toy Story 2 in 3D took third place with $12.5 million, which is pretty remarkable if you think about it.  Surrogates fell from second to fourth, earning $7.2 million, and the comedy The Invention of Lying took fifth with $7 million.

On to broader movie news:

Anything produced or directed by Guillermo Del Toro has my interest.

Tarantino has promised that Kill Bill 3 is coming...though it's about three years away, at least.

That Arrested Development movie that's been in development hell for...ever?  Might actually happen.

Green Hornet, in costume.  Meh.   Liam Neeson as Zues.  Less meh, more "please be awesome."

John Woo.  Shooting people.  With arrows.

And news that Activision has filed a trademark for the Call of Duty film, leads me nicely to this recently released (as in, yesterday) 2-minute gameplay trailer from the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.  Lots of drama in those two minutes, my friends.

Left 4 Dead 2 may be available for pre-order and on its way, but that doesn't mean the mod community has to take it sitting down.  There is a huge, 36 map, 6 campaign mod called Cold Case coming for the the first Left 4 Dead coming out October 31st.

And GameInformer has the first review up for Bioware's spiritual successor to the Baldur's Gate series: Dragon Age.  They like it.
