your WTF of the day: what Darth Vader eats, I guess
Holy God, that black bun has got to be one of the least appetizing things I’ve ever seen in my life.
WTF
deep thought (re our ratings systems)
In what universe — except for the bonzo one we live in — are “intense prolonged sequences of sci-fi action violence, mayhem and destruction” the equivalent of “some violent content” and “brief strong language”?
wtf: AOL is still in the dialup business?
I feel like I’ve just discovered that folk are still using buttonhooks to secure their shoes to their feet.
wtf: ‘Clash of the Titans 2’ will be converted to 3D
Our Hollywood overlords hate us.
wtf: Harvey Weinstein doesn’t want you to see the version of ‘The King’s Speech’ that just won Best Picture
If you despair of the lack of smart, mature movies for adults now, just wait till The King’s Speech, reedited for knee-jerk prudes afraid of their own shadows and unable to competently parent their children to explain how words work, makes $100 million at the box office.
wtf: Natalie Portman shouldn’t want to win an Oscar?!
Of course not, insists John Luchetti at The Film Stage. Because it’ll ruin her love life. *grrr*
wtf: Glenn Close to portray Susan Boyle
We can be assured that while Close will certainly be deglammed to play Boyle, she won’t be deglammed anywhere near enough…
wtf: Disney going after the lucrative newborn demo
Next up: Disney encourages wannabe moms to track their menstrual cycles on DisneyPeriod.com, so Mickey Mouse can be the first to congratulate them on being a few days late…
wtf: ‘The Stand’ as a feature film?
The six-hour miniseries ABC did on TV in the 1990s wasn’t long enough. Unless Warner Bros. and CBS Films are proposing to do three three-hour films à la The Lord of the Rings, I don’t want to hear about this.
wtf: Keith Olbermann off the air?!
Is it time to be scared yet?
