Kristen Bell, known to TV fans as intrepid teen detective Veronica Mars and the Sarah Marshall of Forgetting Sarah Marshall fame, is as cute as a bug’s ear.  There’s no getting around that, especially not after her recent appearance on Ellen.  The only thing cuter than Kristen Bell is Kristen Bell meeting a sloth.  During [...]

Well, guess who won’t go away?  If you said Casey Anthony, you might be correct.  A video diary post surfaced on a pay-per-view website that is reported to be Casey Anthony’s actual video blog; it was quickly reposted to YouTube and later confirmed by Casey’s attorney, Cheney Mason.  Looks like that whole “go into hiding [...]

It’s been a long time since director Ridley Scott mined the science-fiction and horror universes for film ideas.  After all, since blazing a trail with Alien in 1979, Scott did Blade Runner, Legend, and not a whole lot taking place in fantasy worlds.  However, Ridley Scott is returning to the sci-fi horror genre with the [...]

Summer is right around the corner, so that means it’s time for the summer movie blockbusters to start poking their heads out around the Christmas tree, smile, wave, and remind you that soon, the explosion-filled movies will be greeting you at the multiplex.  One of the most eagerly-awaited blockbusters is Christopher Nolan’s final tilt at [...]

I’ll be the first to admit I’ve never really heard of Elf on the Shelf until recently.  Apparently, it’s a stalker elf that watches children in a creepy, evil fashion to make sure they’re doing good and not misbehaving like a drunk Frosty at a Christmas parade.  That’s all well and good, but I need [...]

Once upon a time, there was a legendary comedy team.  They had honed their act on Vaudeville stages before finding success in Hollywood making short features for Columbia Pictures.  The best known incarnation is Larry Fine, Moe Howard, and Curly Howard, AKA the Three Stooges.  Their life story is fascinating; this is NOT their life [...]

When it comes to marketing, the department store Kohl’s generally puts on good ads.  However, sometimes they make mistakes; everyone does, but Kohl’s mistake is more egregious due to the presence of viral video superstar Rebecca Black.  That’s right, Kohl’s went all out with a Black Thursday/Friday ad featuring Rebecca Black’s Friday.  Kohl’s Rebecca Black [...]

Let the year of butt-kicking female heroes begin!  First, you had the trailer for Snow White and the Huntsman, starring Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth.  Now, you’ve got Thor’s little brother, Liam Hemsworth, and Jennifer Lawrence taking on the task of bringing the international best-selling novel The Hunger Games to life on the big screen. [...]

When it comes to television series, no show has quite the cult following that 21 Jump Street has.  It was created by Stephen J. Cannell way back in 1987, yet it has maintained a cult following thanks to it being the show that launched Hunter S. Thompson-loving Johnny Depp’s vampire career.  Well, now it’s Jonah [...]

Hell hath no fury like a guy with a circular saw!  That’s not how the old saying goes, but it’s true.  When it comes to parking tickets, everyone is at risk for them.  From Optimus Prime and Batman to dead people, everyone gets parking tickets, especially in New York City.  However, one crew of construction [...]

It’s the kind of wreck fans live for, but it had the results that no fan would ever want.  At Las Vegas at an IndyCar race, there was a huge, fiery multi-car wreck that took out nearly half the field, but rather than simply wrecking a few expensive cars and shaking up a few drivers, [...]

When it comes to super hero teams, nobody does it quite as well or as often as Marvel.  Disney’s newest subsidiary has also become one of Hollywood’s most powerful movie studios, turning its army of properties, mutants, and costumed heroes into big-budget blockbuster after big-budget blockbuster, with a surprising amount of success.  Joss Whedon might [...]

When it comes to stars, there are normal stars and there are the more unusual astronomical phenomenon.  Among the more unusual things to be found within our great and beautiful universe, there’s the concept of the yellow hypergiant star.  Think of the sun, then make it a star 1000 times as big as the sun [...]

Well, that was quick, wasn’t it?  Much like Jerry Springer in years past, Los Angeles Lakers forward Ron Artest, currently known as Metta World Peace, might have set a record for futility last night on Dancing With The Stars.  The locked-out NBA player turned dancing star found himself on the wrong side of a 14-point [...]

When it comes to kicking a football between a pair of uprights, there aren’t many people better than Sebastian Janikowski.  The Poland-born placekicker for the Oakland Raiders has a penchant for kicking the ball for miles, and last night in the thin air of Denver, Colorado, he kicked himself into a spot in the record [...]
