Today’s spoilers include Spock’s childhood, and a new perspective on Wolverine. Plus two Transformers actors speak! Doctor Who filming reports! Lost answers! Proof that Slusho! is coming to Fringe! Plus Heroes, Smallville and Chuck. OMGspoilers!
Star Trek:
The movie includes “toe-curling” childhood scenes, including one episode of Vulcan playground bullying against the young Spock. And there are lots of homilies about realizing your true self. And apparently Scotty’s alien sidekick is “cornflake-faced.” [Guardian]
X-Men Origins: Wolverine:
They’ve busted out the big guns now: Patrick Stewart does a voice-over for the mutant movie’s latest TV spot. (Is that voice-over taken from one of the previous X-movies? I don’t recognize it.)

Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen:
Keychain spoilers! No really! A new keychain image reveals just what Optimus Prime will look like when he combines with Jetfire, the jet Transformer. [Transformers Movie Chronicles]
Ramon Rodriguez plays Leo Spitz, Sam’s college roommate who runs a website about paranoid conspiracy theories, including the existence of aliens and robots. (And I’m guessing this is the role Jonah Hill turned down.) But then he realizes it’s all true, when Sam tells him his whole story. Says Rodriguez, “I end up getting sucked into [Sam’s] crazy world with real robots and finding out he’s involved in the real thing. My complete world is flipped.” In one scene, a spike pierces the roof of Rodriguez’s car, close to his head. Meanwhile, Isabel Lucas says her character, Alice, is a “seductress” who takes an interest in Sam even though he’s already got a girlfriend. She has “mysterious intentions.” (Having to do, perhaps, with a cyber tentacle coming out of her chest?) [MTV]

Doctor Who:
More filming! Bernard Cribbins filmed a scene where he wanders down a Christmassy London street with his shopping, and then he seems to spot something. Then he peers at something, and it’s possible we see him from an alien POV. One theory is he looks at a bookstore and sees one of those two books about the Doctor that have come out recently. [Doctor Who Forum]
Lost:
We really will eventually learn how Richard Alpert stays so ageless, and what his relationship with the island is. We’ll also learn why Sun was the only O6-er who didn’t travel back in time. Also, the whereabouts of Rose, Bernard, Vincent and Daniel will all be addressed in the coming weeks. On the other hand, we’ll never learn any more about Libby. We also won’t find out what Boone was trying to say to Shannon, and we may never see full frontal four-toed statue action. [Bullz-Eye via SpoilersLost]
Fringe:
Some pics from episode 19, “The Road Not Taken.” And yes, that is a Slusho! that Walter Bishop is drinking. Supposedly. [Fringe Television]
In upcoming episodes, we won’t run into quite so many weird sciencey things that Walter worked on back in the day — it’ll be more Walter figuring out stuff as he goes along. And Walter will be going out into the field more. And we won’t get much more of the Walter-Nina Sharp backstory until season two. We may see more Young Walter flashbacks, however. [TV Guide via Fringe Television]
Smallville:
Here are some pics from episode 8×21, “Injustice.” Bondage! And pleather pants! [OSCK]
Heroes:
Here are a bunch of images from the season finale, “An Invisible Thread.” [Herosite]
Chuck:
EW’s Ausiello presented an exclusive clip from next Monday’s season finale, which I can’t figure out how to embed and couldn’t really get to play, for that matter. [EW]
Plus some sneak peeks are on YouTube:
