There’s no denying that 2012 was a strong year for film. We had great, big genre franchise stunners like ‘The Avengers’ and ‘The Hobbit,’ small and compelling surprises like ‘Looper’ and ‘Holy Motors,’ as well as great works by top-tier filmmakers like Spielberg's ‘Lincoln’ and Tarantino's ‘Django Unchained.’

'The Muppets 2' originally had Oscar-winning actor Christoph Waltz cast as the film's new villain, a bumbling Interpol agent. But Waltz was forced to drop out due to scheduling concerns and was replaced by 'Modern Family' star Ty Burrell (interesting choice for a replacement...). But now it appears that Waltz may star in 'The Muppets 2' after all, in a different role.
This is a real heart-breaker: a terminally ill 'Star Trek' fan has one final wish to see JJ Abrams' sequel, 'Star Trek Into Darkness' before he passes away and doctors don't believe he will live until the May, 2013 release date. So let's help this Trekkie see the film now!
