Maleficient is Disney’s most popular, and most iconic, villain.

As the child of Angelina Jolie (one of the world’s most beautiful women) and Brad Pitt (one of the world’s most handsome men), Vivienne Jolie-Pitt is no stranger to the attention of the press.  I imagine everywhere she goes with her parents, people are there taking pictures of her.  Now, she’s wanting to get paid for it.  Vivienne Jolie-Pitt is set to make her acting debut in her mother’s Maleficient movie.  For the record, Vivienne is only 4 years old, and yet there she is, making her acting debut.  I guess she, like her mother, is going to start the acting game young.

“Angelina thought it would be a fun experience for her and Vivienne to share, and Viv is a natural,” said an inside source to the UK’s The Sun.  ”The other kids are now nagging Angelina and Brad to land them roles.”

Maleficient tells the story of the villainess of the 1959 animated classic Sleeping Beauty; Vivienne will play a younger version of Princess Aurora, who Maleficient would later curse with the sleeping spell.  Maleficient, with her unusual horn hat and good looks, is one of Disney’s most iconic villains, and a dead-ringer for Angelina Jolie.  Maleficient, which will be directed by Robert Stromberg from a script by Paul Dini and Linda Woolverton, is currently filming in London, England.

Every year, when the NBA has to decide who gets the top draft pick, they turn to a series of ping pong balls, each weighted according to the odds that it will come to the top of the machine.  Obviously, it’s a strange system, but there we are.  It keeps teams from taking too hard [...]

The Doors were a distinctive band, but there were two aspects that stuck out more than others in their awesome sound.  The first was the baritone caterwaul of poetry coming from the mouth of Jim Morrison.  The other is the awesome keyboard work of Ray Manzarek.  Morrison died in 1971, but Manzarek was able to [...]

There are a lot of scary things about tornadoes.  They’re just a big, scary force of nature that cannot be reasoned with, cannot be controlled, and can rarely be predicted.  Once a tornado is on the ground, you don’t really know where it’s going to hit or how hard it is going to hit.  A [...]

When Cody Wilson, the 25-year-old crypto-anarchist and University of Texas law student behind Defense Distributed, helped create the world’s first 3D-printed plastic handgun (called The Liberator), one of his more audacious ideas was to release the blueprints online to allow anyone with a computer and a 3D printer to make their own gun.  Turns out, [...]
