If Indy 4 is indicative of present-day "fun" Spielberg, I'm fine with him not making any more movies like that.

Obligatory Viral Campaign
For those who enjoy sperging out about things like this, the flashing frames on the camera at the end reveal a few more images, including what some people are claiming is the alien/dinosaur/Cloverfield monster. It doesn't really look like anything to me, but I'm sure you could see an alien…

From horror auteur Larry Cohen comes the next classic in pre-natal cinema: THE SCREAMING WOMB

Speaking of nerdy shit and death, Brian Jacques passed away today as well. Don't know if he'll warrant a write-up here, but Tasha likes that YA stuff, so who knows.

She's got a job. What am I, an ATM?

Hmmm
Dinner and a movie tonight is going to cost me around 30 dollars. Good thing I'm broke.

Pitching him screenplays constantly as we speak
I figure that even if he doesn't recognize my genius and sign me to a multi-picture development deal, I can point to vague similarities between what I tweeted and something in next Avatar movie and sue his ass into the third dimension. I'll be the next Harlan Ellison.

Twylight Zones? Yeesh
This sounds promising, but that title is horrible.

100%.
