This is outside our usual wheelhouse of videogames, technology and super-hero movies, but it's such an interesting story, we have to share it with you.
There is a rumor that documentary film-maker Morgan Spurlock (Super Size Me) has actually found Osama Bin Laden.
Here's the (admittedly scant) evidence: In the director's latest documentary, Where In The World Is Osama Bin Laden, Spurlock travels the Middle East in search of public enemy number one. At a recent industry screening, reportedly, studio heads and other big-time Hollywood types signed iron clad "We won't tell anyone!" agreements. The Weinstein Co bought the movie after watching only 15 minutes of footage.
So far, everyone has been very, very quiet about Spurlock's film... except the film’s director of photography, Daniel Marricone, who told the press that Spurlock “definitely got the holy grail.”
Weird...eh?
We'll know what Holy Grail Marricone is talking about at this year's Sundance film festival in January.

Oh, wait the election is NEXT year. They'll wait till then.
Isn't his bounty like 100 billion or something insane?
The Rewards For Justice Program, United States Department of State, is offering a reward of up to $25 million for information leading directly to the apprehension or conviction of Usama Bin Laden. An additional $2 million is being offered through a program developed and funded by the Airline Pilots Association and the Air Transport Association.
27 million.... the movie would make more money... you would think all of those lives would be worth more than what Will Smith makes in a single film.
I would love to have the money, don't get me wrong, but I lost a friend up in NY during that... no amount of money will bring them back, but I know she'd chuckle seeing Bin Laden with the flag protruding from his ass.
give morgan spurlock an oscar.
