* Speaking to wizarduniverse.com, Tim Roth, who played Abomination in this summer's The Incredible Hulk, revealed he was a big fan of the original TV series, which featured Lou Ferrigno as the not-so-jolly green giant. One of Roth's friends then was a bodybuilder who painted himself green and scared people in London parks. "We became quite obsessed with the Hulk," Roth said. "We thought he was brilliant."

* Appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Arnold Schwarzenegger told the anvil-jawed host he plans to retire from politics when his term as California governor ends in January 2011, fueling speculation he will return to acting then. Leno quipped, "Maybe we can work together. We can to Twins 2."
