This spin stuff just doesn't make any sense to me. either announce so we can be happy or announce so we can be pissed and tell them how stupid they were ya da ya da. I mean its not like anyone from WB would read this. So it would just be everyone of us in here being pissed. and the few occasional trolls coming in to say how happy they are and what a good decision it was to cast someone else instead of Welling
The frustrating thing is, I don't understand the purpose of the misinformation if true. Then again... people create I-Net viruses just for the helluvit too, so there might not be any purpose behind it at all.
That said, the Welling rumors are all over the freakin' place; they're not just from one source. So what gives? The rumors get bigger and bigger every day and ironically, there's enough evidence out there right now that if Welling
isn't in the running, he SHOULD be!
I'm still not sold on this Ed Gross guy, but Gough's alleged response IS in character with how he acts. He DOES talk like that and he DOES fly off the handle when he gets pissed - and seeing as that a lot of rumored blame seems to be falling on Gough's head, it almost makes sense in my mind that he would have an angry response. And there is a possibility that Gough truly knows *nothing* about what (if anything) has been going on between TOM WELLING and the people he's contracted through: WARNER BROS.
But WTF? Why is Gough telling Ed Gross? Why not tell Sanchez. It's not like Sanchez wouldn't LOVE to dispel the rumors. But Sanchez has been making phone calls every other day and now he's getting the run-around, not to mention a feeling that they're "stalling." If I called somebody's reps in Hollywood, I wouldn't know what the standard response would be, never mind how to interpret the way in which it was spoken, but Sanchez has been doing this for years. I'm going to trust his instincts. Could the delay be that they haven't told Gough yet? Geeze, wouldn't that be funny?
Anyhoo, today is October 6th. If JL is going to happen - and I believe it is - we WILL know soon. It's frustrating having to sit on our hands while other rumormongers pull the strings and laugh at the pandemonium they've caused, but at least we know it shouldn't be long now. Plus there's that early strike thing that's happening at the end of this month, so Warners is staring down at the crapper with the knowledge that it's time to poop or get off the pot. LOL
