    Electronic Arts has announced the new stars that will be featured in the upcoming movie sequences of C&C Red Alert 3: Uprising. Most promiment to CIC visitors will be the addition of Malcolm McDowell to the game's cast. EA's press release spends most of its time talking about how live-action movies are considered a critical component to the Command & Conquer franchise's storytelling. It then goes on to mention McDowell's previous acting role in the Wing Commander series. EA's C&C Battlecast Minute show also breaks the news with a brief shot of McDowell in action. Lucky C&C fans!

    Is it just me, or does the symbol on the podium where he's speaking bear a striking similarity to something....

    "It's you."

    <spits>

    Just kidding. (In case people don't know, think Maestro and Maniac in Prophecy.)

    Well spotted, BTW. I'm actually kinda bemused Holly Valance is in it...

    The Space Marshall looks quite good for his age...

    Very interesting indeed.

    I'm amused Malcolm McDowell thinks Ric Flaire is a "first rate performer".

    And now one of my inspirational quotes, from the mouth of your president, John Henry Eden, straight to your heart.

    Well, compared to the assclowns that he works with in the ring...

    (And out of the ring, after WWE's takeover of ECW. :p )

    You mean after WWE totally bought out the competition? ~~~. Seriously Flair needs to retire completely what is he 70 now? He may only be a spokesman now, but I guarentee you we'll see him in the ring again at some point, even if its just for a single confrontation.

    Flair will be 59 as of 20 days from now. (DOB: Feb 25, 1949)

    As for ECW, I was thinking of the wrong fed. Flair was with WCW. By the time WWF took them over, in 2001, WCW's ratings weren't that far from qualifying for "in the toilet", so for all practical purposes, WWF would've killed WCW with or without a purchase. "With" just let the post-Turner AOL/Time-Warner get a little cash for the fed when it went away.
