I do not think Bob Hope would have done something like this.
“Last Airbender” now 3 for 4 at the #razzies. Yikes.
I think we’re finally taking care of that I’ve-never-seen-“Predator” problem tonight. Hoorah.

Just realized the only way I could ever get excited for “The Bodyguard” remake — if they cast @ladygaga.
Time to brush up on my Portal jokes!
Remember when I spent two weeks last year working as a writer on Attack of the Show? Well, that’s happening again, starting next Monday. I’ll be there for at least a month. It should be a lot of fun. I am writing this while watching today’s show and trying not to be intimidated by how funny it is.
The guys at GigaOM are being incredibly generous in letting me take this...

This broke yesterday, but I didn’t get around to clicking until today. I suck. I knew the name looked familiar; it was in the credits of every Justice League Unlimited episode (one of the greatest animated series about superheroes modern animation has achieved). Really brilliant guy, not just because of stuff like this. Rest in nerdy peace, sir.

Sorry, Firefly Fans, But Nathan Fillion Can’t... →
Telling Firefly fans that their dreams are futile kinda broke my heart, but that’s because I’m one of them. I currently have copies of the complete Firefly series on Blu-ray, DVD and VHS — VHS tapes I made during the show’s original airing in 2002, which I would share with friends because “ohmigod, you have to watch this show!”
Still kind of miss it, but...

What not to say about Lara Logan - Media Criticism... →
shananaomi:
Like countless women around the world, Lara Logan was attacked in the line of duty. She was assaulted doing her job. It was a crime of unspeakable violence. And your opinion of how she does that job, the religion her assailants share with a few million other people, or the color of her hair has nothing to do with it.

"WTF" and the Joy of DIY Ad Sales →
So recently, in my coverage of this space, I’ve been trying to focus more on the business models that creators are using to stay afloat while following their passions. This is a topic I throughly enjoy, because it leads me to stories like Daniel Delaney’s.
The “micro-sponsorship” model Daniel’s created for WTF might not be a model that works for anyone else. It...

So, everyone knows I’m a sucker for animals of all sorts. My cats certainly know it. But there are thousands of animals out there looking for homes, and many wonderful organizations who tirelessly advocate for them, give them comfort and shelter, and place them with new families.
