Robert Kirkman, the writer of “The Walking Dead” comic, is being sued by Michael Anthony Moore, a co-writer of the series. I guess that more money does bring more problems.

Today is Martin Luther King Day, and I wanted to post this because too often I have either heard someone deliberately (or not. I am not sure that it makes a difference) misinterpret what he said. It bothers me because it’s so easy to hear–in King’s own words–what the man had to say, minus the […]

No matter what one thinks of Tyler Perry’s films and television projects–and to be honest I don’t think all that well of them–the man clearly has business acumen. He’s currently listed as Forbes’ highest paid male in entertanment, earning an estimated $130 million dollars from May 2010-2011. You would have to be pretty prolific to […]
Man! Yesterday there was an earthquake in Washington, DC, and now Steve Jobs is no longer Apple’s CEO. Could this be a sign of the Apocalypse that the religious-minded have been talking about for so long? I hope that his health wasn’t the primary motivator and that he continues to play a role at the […]
Here’s the link to the trailer for “Footloose,” the remake of Herbert Ross‘ 1984 film. It’s directed by Craig Brewer (of “Hustle & Flow,” and “Black Snake Moan” fame).
Here’s the latest poster for Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson’s “The Adventures of Tintin” (It appears that they dropped the “The Secret of the Unicorn”). Tinin, an intrepid reporter that goes on various adventures accompanied by his dog, Snowy, and assisted by an eccentric assortment of characters, was created by Hergè. The character has seeming […]
