Neil Finn has written a song for The Hobbit.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This looks like a great idea for a franchise: [link]
Though I might be stretching the definition of "idea" there.

Hey. New board.
So Michael Arndt isn't just writing the next Star Wars film, he's set out a three film treatment.
But...but...but... the various novels in the Expanded Universe have been officially crowned canon by Lucas! This would... mess that up.
Once I would really have cared about this. Once, the Expanded Universe was consistent and awesome. That started to fall apart about the time I stopped paying attention (right after The Phantom Menace removed any joy from the universe for me) so it's probably really awful now, but in my brain the expanded universe - especially the Thrawn trilogy - IS what happens after ROTJ.

Just so no one else has to do it, I'm taking the b.org bullet and seeing the last Twilight movie. It has been an odd tradition with K-Bug but this is the most disturbed viewing yet. Our audience is almost half my age or older. And they are giddy. I'm here for the mockIng fodder. I need to go hit the bar that is in the theater lobby but I don't want to pay their crazy prices.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I don't think I'm violating FERPA or HIPAA if I say that I have knowledge of a certain imperial personage who is also seeing the Deluded Fairies movie.

And I'm home. Oh my. Ummm...there were a lot of laugh points that I don't think were supposed to be laugh points. It was nice to see KStew and RPatz, sorry, Bella and Edward smile instead of all the angsting . Some of the CGI was pretty painful though.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
When I first read that, I got the impression you were saying that they had to use CGI to get Bella and Edward to smile. (For the record, I pictured something along the lines of the Quiznos spong monkeys. Silly, I know. They're totally Team Jacob.)
I just finished watching Crash. I had no idea that the total population of Los Angeles was approximately twenty people.

Also? When it rains there, it rains anvils.

It awesomely does. And yet - and this is something I had never remotely imagined that I might one day say - I was really quite moved when Ludacris freed the slaves.
