Having already had a fine supporting role in a Canadian-ish comedy film (see above), Cancer Boy's move to Tinseltown will also prefigure his move to the action genre. If The Rock can play a hockey player-turned-tooth-fairy, certainly a cancerous hockey player can play a wisecracking, gun-toting piece of meat.
His first role: a sequel, filling the shoes (and tights) of another actor in a compelling franchise. Basically, Val Kilmer taking over Batman (that worked out well, right?). The franchise:
The other big move of the weekend: Dion goes to Toronto. This will be her first appearance there since September of 2008, which went a little something like this:
Listen to that crowd response! She'll be a hit, we're sure. More importantly, the fact that Jamal Mayers is headed to Calgary means that I'll have to re-vamp my MLK day analysis, and create an entirely new category for the Flames: I'm thinking of calling it Funkadelic. Hell, even those honky mofos Darryl and Brent will have to get down to this.
