Intense spoiler-packed STAR WARS images
A lot of pictures and information has already slipped out about STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH, but these images are pretty intense and packed with spoilers. They will also give you a good idea of why this movie will probably be rated PG-13. These were apparently scanned from a German ROTS book and have been quickly popping up on all the Star Wars message boards. I’ve put all the pictures after the jump, to keep them hidden from people who don’t want to see them. But if you can’t wait… click away!

Weekend Box Office >> March 25-27
Bernie Mac and Ashton Kutcher grabbed the top slot at the box-office this weekend with GUESS WHO. Their update of the 1967 film GUESS WHO’S COMING TO DINNNER raked in $21 million dollars. Sandra Bullock’s MISS CONGENIALITY 2: ARMED AND FABULOUS opened Thursday and needed the extra day to pull in $17.6 million. The miserable excuse for a horror film THE RING 2 fell to third place in it’s second weekend.
Scanning the Top 10 list, it’s almost amazing how bland and flat out bad all the movies in the list are (with the exception of MILLION DOLLAR BABY). That should all change next weekend when SIN CITY comes thundering into theaters.

Tony Jaa's workout routine
In case you wondered how ONG BAK‘s Tony Jaa stays in great physical shape, we now have the answer. It’s not from lifting weights or any of those tricks puny white people try. His exercise technique consists of meditation, kickboxing moves and jumping on the backs of his pet elephants. No joke! The truth is revealed in the April 2005 GQ Magazine.
"Right now I have two elephants at home, and I practice jumping from one elephant to the other to hone my balance. I can kick a pad that’s eleven feet in the air, but the power isn’t all in my legs. The art of muay Thai is as much a mental as a physical discipline. If I meditate and convince myself that I can do something, I usually can."
