Novoselic aside, the Republicans "celebrity" support is just as laughable as usual. I forget, who's the Chuck endorsing this time out?

Italian horror site Bad Taste spoke to Robert Englund while he was in Rome scouting locations for his new directorial project THE VIJ, and the actor revealed that he won't be reprising his classic Freddy Krueger role in New Line and Platinum Dunes' recently announced NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET remake (first reported here). "I think there is always room for new interpretations by using the new tecnology," he tells the site. "In the past, they were talking about a prequel. Anyway, I'm too old for this new version, otherwise it would be FREDDY VS. VIAGRA."

Englund does say he's game to make a cameo, though: "It would be a lot of fun. I'm a great fan of [Dunes'] Michael Bay; I took my nephew to see TRANSFORMERS on the opening day, and I thought it was terrific. So, yes, I would be delighted to."

Sad news for Englund/Freddy fans, though it seems like his experience and fame in the role is paying off: "I wouldn't be auditioning some gorgeous Italian actresses [for THE VIJ] these days if I hadn't played Freddy," he says.

Obama for the win. Jonny von Doom has planted the seed and he will see the harvest.

I'll definately still be buying it, Neemo. Usually, any major mag with Axl or the Guns on the cover gets an immediate spot in my collection. The cover alone is badass.

Damnit. Blur.
