The spirit of BOP News lives on in
This is So Last Week,
our pop culture week-in-review,
presented in a pleasing quiz form.
Arnold Schwarzenegger is apparently not quite the shoe-in for governor of
California as some would have it. Out on the campaign trail recently,
Ahnuld was egged by protestors as he pressed the flesh. Trouper that he is,
the Terminator kept on working the crowd whilst an aide wiped egg from
Schwarzenegger's jacket and then finally whisked the jacket away.
Questioned by reporters regarding the incident, Ahnuld joked, "That guy owes
me bacon." Of course, Arnold forgot to mention that he's already provided the ham.

In an incident that likely gave studio bosses heart palpitations, Cameron
Diaz broke her nose while surfing in Hawaii. The Charlie's Angels star was
celebrating her birthday with some friends when she was struck in the nose
by a foam surfboard. What has the star upset over the incident, though, is
the fact that she can't keep surfing with her damaged nose. Ladies and gentlemen, this has to be the most well publicized facial ever.

Bruce Willis' production company, Cheyenne Enterprises, is producing a pair
of upcoming flicks, one of which will star Willis. First up is the drama
Hostage, which will star Willis as a hostage negotiator who retires to the
quiet life of a small-town chief of police after a negotiation in which he's
involved ends badly. Of course, as is the norm in these types of films, his
search for peace and quiet goes awry, as he ends up negotiating with the man
who kidnapped his wife and daughter. The change of the film is being changed to "Worst. Luck. Ever."

In what must surely be a sign of the coming Apocalypse, Scary Movie 3 is
reportedly testing extremely well with audiences, and more scenes are being
filmed in response to audience reaction to certain characters. The movie,
which will include spoofs of 8 Mile, The Ring, and Catch Me If You Can, is
due to be released October 24th. The most positive scores were allegedly given by audiences in Lowestcomondenomenatorville.
