First, Nike made the Air Jordan.
Now it looks like Nike will be making the John Lennon.
I promise I'm not making this up.

The upcoming fourth, will be the final season of The Osbournes.

My new favorite blog can be found here.
Who's it belong to?
None other than Green Arrow!

The guy that brought us Batman : Dead End has put his incredible movie making skills to use again.
This time, instead of teaming the Aliens and Predators against Batman, he's teaming Batman with Superman against the combined villiany of Lex Luthor and Two-Face.
Watch the incredible trailer for Sandy Collora's SUPERMAN/BATMAN.

Further Seems Forever have a new album coming out Tuesday called Hide Nothing, and I'd be remiss if I didn't recommend it to you all.
I mean, I know I'm going to be buying it.
Check out the site.

An interesting article on why you may not have liked Alien vs Predator.
Go read it if you're one of the people who said it sucked.

A page full of monkeys shouting "I need more comics!" as drawn by a mess of different artists. Like you've got anything better to look at on the internet.

MSNBC reviews the many (possible) faces of Superman.
My pick, Jude Law, is among the candidates.

CBSNews also looks at this particular issue.

While I'm talking about Superman, I saw a bumper stiker the other day that said WWSD?
Except, the "S" was Superman's emblem. It was pretty rad.
If anyone knows where I can get one of these, please let me know!

In fact, I'd be willing to wager that some of you are, in fact, of the female persuasion.
And if you're reading this, I feel like I can safely say that amongst this lot of actual females and females known of, that at least a few enjoy video games.
It is for you that I present this t-shirt.
For yourself or as a gift.
Or if you're an RPGer, how about this one.
Or if you're an old school arcade fan.

The trailer for the new film from the creators of South Park has just been released.
It's called Team America : World Police.
I'm already excited.
Go see it at a theater near you in October.

Coming even sooner though, is a film who's jump across the pond I've been anxiously anticipating for some time now.
That film is Shaun of the Dead, a twisted UK horror romantic zombie comedy which will finally see a US release on September 24.
The film boasts a soundtrack that featuers some of my favorite bands, as well as cameos in the film from members of Ash and Coldplay to name a few.
Watch the trailer here.

Have a look at these pictures from Fox's next computer animated movie, Robots.
Picture 1
Picture 2
The flick is the work of Ice Age's Chris Wedge and will feature the voices of Ewan McGregor, Halle Berry, and Greg Kinnear among others.

I'm serious!

Absolutely nothing should keep you from watching the teaser trailer for BATMAN BEGINS.
It's so good it almost made me cry.
I don't see how this movie can be anything but amazing.
 
Check out the final design for Nintendo's new handheld system, the Nintendo DS. Expect it in stores in early 2005.
 
Star Wars fans should have a look at this.
Is it true?
Who knows.

I'm looking forward to this movie very much.
 
How has everyone been?
Good I hope.
 
Read the entire sorted history of the fantastically bad Highlander 2 as well as a review of the new "Ultimate Edition" DVD.
 
Robert Rodriguez' silver screen version of Frank Miller's SIN CITY may become the best comic adaptation ever.

Things are on the move.
Stickers are available.
Buttons are GO!

The site is almost up and jogging.
The first official show with the new name and line-up is just around the corner.
Keep August 7 open.
 
"The SuperFriends are Superman, Batman, Aquaman, Wonder Woman... and a host of characters who don't even deserve their own pamphlet, let alone a comic book. This collection of four color legends and heaps of racial stereotypes exist to battle the forces of evil in any way they can, usually by talking in a stoic voice and seeing the flaw in their master plan. Or by punching them in their goddamn face. That works too."

Okay, here's the deal.
Imagine Rocky, but instead of boxing, it's wrestling.
Then set it in Japan instead of America.
Then replace an Italian guy with a giant squid.
After you've stopped going insane, watch the trailer.
 
Speaking of Asian insanity, you might as well watch this trailer also.
 
Check out this e-card for the new ASH single, Starcrossed.
You can also enter to win an XBOX.

Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects, Apt Pupil, X-Men 1 & 2) has been named as the director to restart the Superman franchise for Warner Bros. He'll be bringing Mike Dougherty and Dan Harris along with him to write the script after the three worked so well together penning the second X-Men flick.
 
It's come to my attention that The WB has a new show based on "The Blue Collar Comedy Tour" called "Blue Collar TV". After hearing about this show I decided, in my infinite generosity, to help The WB by sending them my idea for a new name for the show that I think will really help bring in those key demographic numbers: Idiot TV. Doesn't that say it all so much more succinctly?
 
For those of you that are all about the bargain, Best Buy has Starsky & Hutch for $15.99 and both of the new Adult Swim releases (ATHF S2 & Sealab 2021 S1) for $24.99.
Circuit City has Old School, Super Troopers, or Zoolander for $9.99.
 
The loooooong delayed Special Edition Ed Wood DVD will finally be hitting store shelves (fingers crossed) on October 19.
Mandy Moore's Saved! will be coming to DVD on October 5. Also look for Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends Season 2 on August 31, Super Size Me! and Ellen Season 1 on September 28.

VAN HALSING : The Abridged Script
(Note: If you've never read one of these.. they're funny.)


Before Nancy Reagan came along with her left-field "Just Say No" campaign, it was common practice for children's shows to not only condone, but actively endorse, the virtues of hard drug use.

If you enjoyed Spider-Man 2 or think Legos or stop-motion is cool or if you'd just like to watch something that's pretty rad, I'd suggest you visit this little link here.

Another great interview with MST3K's Mike Nelson.

I don't think I'm wrong in thinking that commercials were pretty great in the 80s. Here's one now.. for Bonkers!.. a candy you may recall.

That's right. This is the company that employs me.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail is being made into a Broadway musical called "Spamalot" and some pretty talented folk are going to be starring in it. Read more, won't you?

An editorial piece on Van Halen that I read. Perhaps you'd like to read it as well.

Get a load of Steve from Blue's Clues these days. Not a bad transition.
