They won’t be showing this on your next flight!
Despite this link, you don’t really want to watch this Flightplan trailer as it gives away far too much of the movie’s story. I’ll sum it up for you: Jodie Foster (with some sort of youth implant so she looks 25 now) is in an ultimate locked-room-mystery: her daughter disappears in the middle of a…

Jason Apuzzo blogs…did I say blogs? I meant to say “does a doctoral thesis”…on Star Wars and the end of Hollywood’s last great age. Why We’re Going to Miss ‘Star Wars’ The opening where he recalls what it was like to watch a movie in the 1970s, in the days before piracy, home theaters and…

According to an alleged e-mail from Devin allegedly reposted over at alleged Geoff Johns alleged board, there is the slight possibility that Devin Grayson will be off Nightwing as of issue #117.

The Force is with Madagascar
The Sith is in its third week…and third place, below a moderately interesting animated film and a remake of a 1970s football movie. This has got to be disappointing for Lucasfilm. Yeah, yeah, it’s making money, but as John Derbyshire (no fan of Star Wars at all) points out: STAR WARS IN TODAY’S DOLLARS [John…

Getcha doughnuts today!
Oh yeah, it’s National Doughnut Day! That means you get free Krispy Kreme doughnuts today! Now, two warnings: 1) Krispy Kreme regularly hands out a “free sample” when you go in on any given day. Their free sample is an entire doughnut, which is disconcerting because I usually go in to buy one doughnut. Krispy…
