Good news for Kevin!

Quoted: Sean Connery is set to shake and stir this year's Edinburgh Book Festival by unveiling an autobiography on his 78th birthday.

Wow. Quite a harsh review. I didn't see anything this bad about that last David Lynch one and it was completely unwatchable. Well, we will always have Wings of Desire.

Quoted: It's well known that once-revered German auteur Wim Wenders doesn't make films like he used to.
...
The director of such cinema classics as "Kings of the Road" (1976), "The American Friend" (1977), "Paris, Texas" (1984) and "Wings of Desire" (1987) hasn't made a decent film since "Buena Vista Social Club," his 1998 documentary on music in Cuba.
...
However, Wenders has reached a new low with "Palermo Shooting," a film of startling and embarrassing banality and, yes, even silliness. One is hard-pressed to imagine any commercial future whatsoever for this film, and a pickup by a U.S. distribution company seems virtually impossible.

Cool. I still want Rock Band for the songs though.

Quoted: Activision Inc is adding drums, bass guitar, and microphone to its popular "Guitar Hero" video game, a move aimed at winning away fans of MTV's rival musical title "Rock Band".

This was one of my favorite movies as a kid but I'm not sure that it will have the same intensity with The Rock in the remake.

Quoted: Kim Richards and Ike Eisenmann, the original kid stars of Disney's 1970s "Witch Mountain" movies, are coming back for the studio's re-imagining of the adventure tales.

This could be awesome or it could be really, really bad ...

Quoted: LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Saturday Night Live veteran Jimmy Fallon will take Conan O'Brien's place on NBC next year when O'Brien succeeds Jay Leno on The Tonight Show, a person familiar with the deal said on Thursday.

I can't wait!

Quoted: The truth about "The X-Files" sequel -- some of it, anyway -- is now out there. ...

"While this is not a mythology movie, it's true to everything that's come before," Spotnitz said at the William S. Paley Television Festival. "It's true to Mulder and Scully, who they are and where they would be this point in their lives and all of the experiences that they've had."

My money would be better spent on a bet that this theater won't last long at Redmond Town Center ...

Quoted: Would you pay $35 for a movie ticket, plus extra for popcorn?

What if it guaranteed no one could kick your seat?

An Australian theater chain opening in Redmond this fall is betting affluent audiences will pay three times the typical ticket price for plush, reclining seats equipped with call buttons for service, allowing them to order gourmet food, wine and cocktails from the theater's restaurant.

Village Roadshow Gold Class Cinemas will open at Redmond Town Center in October, replacing the AMC theater that closed earlier this year. ...

Exclusivity is key. Each of the eight auditoriums will have wide screens but no more than 40 seats arranged in pairs with ample legroom. The theater's restaurant and lounge will be open only to moviegoers. An online booking service will enable people to choose their seats; valets will park their cars.

The theater will offer some matinees, Burke said, with admission discounted to $20 or $25.

RIP Vampira.

Quoted: Maila Nurmi, whose "Vampira" TV persona pioneered the spooky-yet-sexy Goth aesthetic, has died, coroner's officials said. She was 85.
