Whiz of the Web: Wednesday Whiz-Up

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you.

• Are we still talking about Comic-Con?! Yes, yes we are. Scarlett Johansson on Iron Man 2. Cinematical interviewed costumed fans at SDCC. We've already posted links to pictures of the hot ladies of Comic-Con so, in the interests of equality, a gallery of the hunks of Comic-Con. Yet another gallery of general Comic-Con photos. The winners of the Comic-Con Masquerade. An amusing sketch by Roger Langridge. Peter Jackson on District 9. If you have a spare hour to spend, you can now watch the entire Caprica/Battlestar Galactica panel online. Russell T. Davies on Doctor Who. The worst of Comic-Con advertising: badvertising.

• A woman has been sued for $50,000 over a tweet. She claimed an apartment owned by Horizon Realty was moldy. The company did not contact her or ask her to remove the posting, but instead went right to its lawyers. A spokesman for Horizon said, "We're a sue first, ask questions later kind of an organization." Wow. We're guessing that dude is not in the PR department. (Via)
• Universal Pictures has pushed back the release of The Wolfman again, to February 12, 2010. The company is also teaming with Illumination Entertainment to turn the Dr. Seuss book The Lorax into a 3-D computer-animated movie.
