Fling (review)
Poor Brandon Routh. He caught the Superman curse.

watch it: “Madoff With America”
Sometimes you bring the crazy, and sometimes the crazy brings you. I don’t know what that means, except that this is one of the nuttier things I’ve seen online, and I’m scrambling for some way to describe it: See, writer-producer Edmund Druilhet wants to make a documentary about “scumdog Ponzi-aire” Bernard Madoff, and this is … more…
question of the day: $72.5 million for ‘Fast & Furious’? Really?
$72.5 million for ‘Fast & Furious’? Really? It’s an estimate, but my great fear, when the actual box office numbers come in later today, is that that early guess at Fast & Furious’s humongous weekend box office take will be revised upward, as happens sometimes. $72.5 million for ‘Fast & Furious’?

weekend open thread: April showers edition

Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from one of the DVDs in my collection (and it’s definitely from a movie, not a TV show). Guess the movie for fun and, well, fun. No prizes, just bragging rights. But hey: one guess per comment — no fair hogging all the guesses.
watch it: “Kitties HATE Mermaids!”
It’s cat-video Friday! This one could alternatively called “How to Terrify Your Cats”:
trailer break: ‘Doctor Who: Planet of the Dead’
Take a break from work: watch a TV trailer… Woo-hoo! New Doctor Who! Ummm, I’m getting a strong vibe of “Midnight” off this: stuck on a bus with a bunch of strangers in the middle of nowhere, with a deadly environment outside? I hope it’s gonna be more than that.
