MTV: Kissing the Asses of Teenies and Twimoms...
So, MTV.com has been doing this “countdown” for their man and woman of the year. I’ve been keeping an eye on the list, especially the Women’s list, because big names like Rihanna and Beyonce failed to crack the top five and Britney, who’s comeback is in full effect, only hit number two. “Who,” I asked myself, “could have topped those...

Whatever Happens, Happens...Whoa
Okay, I get it. Keanu Reeves is a geek and likes sci-fi and comics. And takes parts that reflect those interests. He’s done The Matrix, Constantine, A Scanner Darkly, The Day the Earth Stood Still and more.
That doesn’t mean he should get his hands on Cowboy Bebop.
I had the extreme joy of telling Varius last weekend that Reeves is slated to play Spike Spiegel, one of the four...

Sometimes Things SHOULDN'T Come Back from the Dead
I have an extended list of movies that should not be remade. Somehow, I think Hollywood got a hold of that list and is sitting there going “Yes! Yes! We can screw this up SO BADLY.”
Case in point: they’re talking about remaking The Crow.
For those of you who only know The Crow from the 9.8 Gazillion items in Hot Topic with the movie’s logo on it? The Crow is one of my...

GREAT SCOTT!
So, I on occasion find fanfiction simply fascinating. Like, “why would you write that?” fascinating. I am, unfortunately, of the mind that as soon as you think “there can’t be fanfiction for THAT,” you will find fanfiction for THAT. And possibly a thriving fandom with all kinds of creepy ass politics.
In the past, I have been accidentally exposed to Nightmare...

Sometimes Experts are Dumb: "Women With Short Hair...
So, there’s this long standing tradition that women seem to have when they make a huge change in their lives. In most cases, it’s when they get rid of a bad relationship. It’s part of the process of letting go of the past and looking to the future and taking some weight off of your shoulders. Literally.
Yes, I’m talking about the tried and true “post-break-up...

'Twilight" in Comic Form: You Had to See it...
So, with all the Twilight mania going on, I’ve been waiting for something and so far have been thanking any deity I could think of that it hasn’t happened yet. But then, MTV.com had to go and spoil it for me, like they normally do.
Ladies and gentleman: there’s rumors of the possibility of a Twilight graphic novel.
Like I said, I was waiting for it. After all, graphic...

I See Your 7 and Raise You 1
So, as I’m checking my e-mail, I come across a link on MSN.com about “7 Things Men Will Never Get About Beauty.” And as I clicked through, I realized that they didn’t need to name 7. They only needed to name 1.
The 7 “Things” on the list include body waxing, bangs, prep time and at least two nail-related gripes. But included with every item is a quote from a...

Round 2: Fight! Or Better Yet, Don't!
So, apparently I’ve been living under a rock. Because if I had been anywhere else, I would have known about the 2009 Street Fighter movie and I would have done anything in my power to stop it.
For those of you who don’t understand my issues with this? You likely don’t remember the 1994 Street Fighter movie. Which was so bad and had so little to do with the game one might have...
