It's that time of year.....Sometime in the next month I'll be watching "The Ten Commandments" followed by "The Passion of the Christ". Two of my favorites for some spiritual uplifting.

Looks like Kathryn Bigelow's ZERO DARK THIRTY (her movie on the Osama Bin Laden raid) is already in production with a December release date planned. And some trouble with the locals while shooting in India.

Don't forget The Robe.

Cameron said during last night's show that he does not support gay marriage, and when it comes to homosexuality in general ... he said, "I think that it's ... unnatural. I think that it's detrimental, and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization."

J.R. was an all time bad guy. I loved the show; and that's saying something, because everyone here knows how I feel about the State of Texas .

Yes PB, you are on our list.

That show was so perfect for the 80s - the women with the big hair and big-shouldered suits, the men with that "greed is good" attitude, fighting over their millions.

Sign #47 that there is No God

Porno studio Vivid Video is making...I am not making this up...a Pee Wee Herman-themed porno "parody."

Jesus I feel dirty for typing this.

When you ask industry veterans why it has been so difficult for Hollywood to turn out a new crop of megawatt male stars, the fast answer usually involves the state of movies. Stars like Matt Damon, Russell Crowe and Tom Hanks came up in medium-size dramas and comedies that let them build a fan base, the kinds of movies Hollywood has all but abandoned as it pursues bloated special-effects extravaganzas that play increasingly to an overseas audience. Actors, even good ones, get swallowed by that machinery or have trouble delivering a memorable performance because they are acting against little more than a green screen.

Then there is what Jeanine Basinger, the chairwoman of the film studies department at Wesleyan University, describes as the “pretty boy problem.” In the studio system heyday leading men were distinctive, she noted, pointing to Gable, Cary Grant, Humphrey Bogart and Jimmy Stewart. The last generation of A-listers includes quirkier types like Mr. DiCaprio, Mr. Depp and Robert Downey Jr.

I just surfed by a 1971 rerun of hte Partridge Family. Low and behold, who did I see in the episode? Richard Pryor and Richard Roundtree. I don't know if it was Roundtree before or after Shaft, but he looked a little different.

Far out, man!

Talk about "spoilers." This is really random since I am the only one here who watches "Desperate Housewives" Sunday night. Nicolette Sheridan (a former cast member) is suing producer of the show for she claims, slapping her and unfairly firing her. The trial is over and jury in deliberations now with verdict due any time. James Denton who played Mike Delfino (husband to one of the housewives) testified in the producers defense as did other cast members as I understand.

ANYWAY, in the course of the trial it was let out that a major character was going to die on the show very next episode (yesterday) and they were forced, I guess to say which one. What a spoiler. So, last night we said goodbye to to Mike Delfino (James Denton).

They said a couple jurors who watched the show "gasped" at the news, and the lawyer asked (jokingly ?) for a gag order which the judge said he "couldn't do."


TIS

I am a DH fan, too! (Mostly because of Eva Langoria, ha!)
Seriously, been watching since day 1. Sorry to see a good guy like Mike go away. I hope they catch the wiseguy who popped him. It looks like a few of them may be off to the big house! Murder, obstruction of justice, disposal of a body... if they were smart, blame it all on Mike Delfino!
