Sweet Calliope on a Pogo stick.

ETA: Aaaaand cue wank stage left!

3:05PM - Lotsa Trek spoilers! No, seriously...A LOT.

Empire, Den of Geek, and TrekMovie describe four clips of Star Trek in detail.  The clips are introduced with even more spoilers. After reading these three articles, you'll know about half the plot, including [ETA: maybe] the climax.

Even if you are a spoiler-phobe, I recommend reading about the first clip.  It isn't all that spoilery, but it's very WTF. There is a Budweiser product placement. In Star Trek. LOL.

Here is a small sampling of spoilers from all three articles:

The spoilers make it pretty clear this is a canon reboot.  From what I've heard, there is an in-story explanation. Surprisingly, this has caused little gnashing on the Trek BBS.

Spoilers in comments, but only of the first three clips.  I think that is fair.

4:06PM - When fandoms collide

At the Borders last night, I saw a YA display of Twilight and some suggested alternatives. One of them was the first in Ms. Clare's City of Bones trilogy.

Color me amused.

4:27PM

Batman Sues Chris Nolan!

Current mood: *sporfle!*

7:16PM - You must be @$%^ing me

Just when you thought it was safe with the 'The Graysons' being cancelled, another potential comic book trainwreck has emerged just to screw with us all. Right now DC is seriously talking about making a Wonder Woman movie, and one of the women coming forward to apply for the role is ...

Beyonce.



... Yeah. Comic fans, begin your wailing and gnashing of teeth.
