I can see some uses for this for film making . Tie a rope on the pan and it might be kind of useful for some low angle outdoor tracking shots.

Well, we know who this is now don't we?

I think the important thing they need to remember with this remake is keeping the theme of these very normal, working class people facing down these horrors of our worst nightmares. The idea of women who are the traditional victims in horror movies actually getting the upper hand is kind of awesome

Funny Fact: Chuck Lorre producer of The Big Bang Theory, co-wrote that song. He also got zero residuals from it.

Even NPR's Carl Kassel is getting in on the trend

The one person I know who saw it said he liked it when Sam Raimi did it 22 years ago.

And nobody in the media cares about Lizzy Seeberg's actual rape by Notre Dame players and her resultant suicide

And probably the only GI Joe: Retaliation igure you will find on the shelves! I work at Target, and I noticed they already started clearing out the figures they were shilling for the movie that didn't come out last summer.

Cumberbatch is not an 18th Century clock maker! It should be obvious from the name he is the last surviving descendant of the Beatles, and he's still upset over Shatner's cover of "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" being the only extant recording of the song to survive to the 23rd century.

What's funny is that the Texas Education Board Members know they have all this buying power with school book publishers. Lots of other School districts use their books rather than order their own. So these Right Wing Evangelicals on the Board think they can use this status to push their agenda not only in Texas but…

Make the Thing all CGI and give the voice job to John Goodman. He's the one man in Hollywood I could see saying "IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME!!!!" with the correct gusto.

Just the other day I had this idea of doing a story about a zombie apocalypse on Black Friday. I was going to blame the zombism on tainted turkeys.

Oh yes, Bob Larson. Back in the 90's he was pretty big in Christian radio circles. He was sort of a Christian Shock Jock; he had confrontations with Satanists, New Agers, and what have you on his show. He did one of his first exorcisms on the air (over the phone even!)

But I thought some more recent research suggested the specimen they had dubbed the Hobbit might actually have been some kind of little person? Not that it would make any difference to the Asylum.

Hey, a job's a job. I'm sure he has a mortgage just like everyone else. Though my personal dream casting for him would be as Luke Cage in a full on 70's Grindhouse version of Power Man and Iron Fist.

I expect they still try and get their flicks in RedBox, and work on the same principle.

Thankfully rerun network MeTV has M*A*S*H* and Remington Steele as part of their prime time lineup, so I've been catching a lot of that. Plus big Bang Theory on Thursdays.

Odd, but amusing

Any serious attempt at terraforming on either planet will require tons more data on the environmental factors before we can even begin any kind of plan. And data on Venus is going to be hard to come by when all your testing equipment ends up slagged within hours of landing on the surface.

One of the books I go to for an improved state of mind is Lois McMaster Bujold's "Memory" At the heart of it the story is about the destruction of Miles Vorkosigan's life as he knows it and how he ends up reinventing himself. I find the story really helps pick me up
