I’d been putting it off for years and since Pegg is coming to Dallas next week, I figured this would be as good a time as any. So, after having rediscovered my admiration for Pegg, imagine my disappointment to learn that he would not be part of Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming movie INGLORIOUS BASTARDS.
According to Simon Pegg’s Myspace blog , there were scheduling difficulties that were impossible to work around. Pegg would have been a great addition to the growing cast, but this does leave him with time to work on his next movie PAUL! Even more exciting is the announcement that Greg Mottola (the man who brought us SUPERBAD last summer) will be directing PAUL.

When most kids go to college, they go to live their parents’ dreams of becoming a lawyer or a doctor. Â Sometimes they form terrible bands that they take way too seriously and play in nasty little bars. MGMT (pronounced Management) didn’t. Ever. Â
Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser met and formed the duo while studying music in college. Â MGMT would often play at the college dorms, but usually played covers. Â By that I mean they would only play the Ghostbus...
