It’s Memorial Day weekend. News is unbelievably slow. Yesterday, one of the top stories was how an extra in “Spider-Man 3″ killed herself. That’s how slow it is. And when news is slow, you gotta get creative. And by “creative”, I mean “Take minor incidents and speculate like you’re on cable news.”
Today’s speculation comes courtesy of Golden Apple Comics who witnessed actress Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck from “Battlestar Galactica”) buying all of their Typhoid Mary comics and then saying she wanted to get a part in a Marvel movie. Then, ComingSoon proceeds to speculate that since Typhoid is a foe of both Daredevil and Deadpool, this could be a part in either a new Daredevil movie or the upcoming Deadpool spin-off.
Because an actress bought some comic books.
All actors and actresses who read Collider: you have a grand opportunity. Go to your local comic store and just buy a bunch of comics. Even better, pick up the most obscure, confounding characters you can. Buy Namor or Dazzler or Rawhide Kid. You have the power to send the geek world into a frenzy for less than $50.

IESB reported months back that Fox plans on rebooting Daredevil and Fantastic Four…remember Jason Statham was interested in the Daredevil reboot…Fox has to make these films before the right revert back to Marvel….it’s not that crazy to assume Katee is researching the character…I mean who cares about Typhoid Mary enough to buy her comics? it makes more sense than she’s just shopping for comics

So by your logic, Typhoid Mary comics are so crappy they have to be making a movie with her character? Well NOW I’m excited.
I just think it’s great that at this point some folks are just making up news based on what an actor or actress purchases. If Zac Efron rents “Back to the Future”, does that mean they’re making a sequel? They’ve been talking about it for years! Why else would he rent “Back to the Future”?! I don’t buy Efron as Marty McFly’s son! Will they bring back Christopher Lloyd? DISCUSS!
And that’s how you manufacture news based on nothing. For more on this, please tune on any of the major cable news networks.
