I just watched Banksy's Exit Through the Gift Store movie and I feel...somehow. Kinda dirty, maybe. Actually, I kinda feel like I did during my brief Andy Kaufman obsession, like I'm pretty sure I'm being laughed at, but I might be okay with it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
ABC Family did some reasonably interesting YA SF with Kyle XY. Don't judge ahead of the evidence.
I'm not sure how to sustain a TV series on any station with the the premise, and on any station other than pay cable the violence is going to have to be pretty much implied, but we'll see.

OK, so we've got these new Avengers posters.
Am I nuts, or does that last one have Tony Stark doing the classic look-at-my-chest-and-butt-at-the-same-time twist?

Pretty much. Which I would appreciate more if he were OUT of the tin suit. (Dang, there better be a tank top scene in this movie. Pander to me, Whedon. Pander to meeeeee.)
