Shia LeBeouf *cringe*

While not confirmed by Warner Bros., Shia LeBeouf is in talks to play Robin in next installment of Batman, to be released in 2010.

I can't tell you why, but I hate this man-boy named Shia. It's deep, it's irrational, but most importantly, it's passionate. Shia ruined the essence of Indiana Jones 4. (Granted, if he hadn't, Harrison Ford's overwhelming ora of Bengay would have.)

If Shia is in the third installment of Batman, they might as well throw Katie Holmes back in the mix and I'll just sit in the theater with little coffee creamers, hold them up to my eyes, and stab at them with a fork and scream for the 2.25 hour duration of the movie as other audience members think they're being sprayed with my exploding eyeballs.

Casting directors, directors, producers, everyone involved in the movie might as well just set themselves on fire if Shia is brought on to play Robin...

Just like Harvard and Yale- these institutions should seriously consider setting themselves on fire for graduating George W. Bush, or at least consider some serious self-flagellation. Maybe they should forgive tuition to students who go into education or public service and have to work to correct all of Bush's mistakes. Which brings me to a very legitimate point for the press. Why haven't you criticized Yale for allowing Bush to graduate? As his undergraduate institution, it was your responsibility to engender him with a civic sense of responsibility and empower him to make thoughtful rational decisions.

Have I mentioned how much I dislike Shia Lebeouf?
