CSotD: Coming straight to a DVD near you

My Cage may seem to be reaching with this gag, but it's not easy to exaggerate the horrors of Hollywood.

Consider that Universal Pictures is currently filming "Stretch Armstrong," a movie starring "Twilight" heartthrob Taylor Lautner as a plastic toy. (Yes, the role will be a stretch.)

Lautner told MTV.com "The awesome thing with toys is it doesn't give you a story line, so you get to
create it. The development process for this movie has been awesome and it's
going to continue to be. I just can't wait to see a script… I just want to see
it."

Awesome.

In order to take the role, Lautner backed out of a deal to play the lead in Paramount's "Max Steel," based on a Mattel action figure that spawned an animated TV series.

It's awful hard to stay ahead of Hollywood these days.
