What I'm Watching: Thursday night, 30 Rock
There were plenty of funny moments, don't get me wrong. It was, for one, a Kenneth-intensive episode -- always a good thing. And the show was worth it just to hear Kenneth (aka Jack McBrayer) speak in the tongue of "the hill people." But generally it
Jon Favreau Discusses"Tricky" CGI-Completion Phase
The Iron Man 2 director says he won't really know how the film is shaping up until action sequences are done.
At the end of September, director Jon Favreau escaped his "Iron Man 2" edit bay and took a couple of days for an island getaway, traveling
TV: The Prisoner:"Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling" / "A Change Of Mind"
Alas, that was not to be. "Forsake" isn't a total wreck--at the very least, the story makes rough sense and we get some of the trippy sci-fi stuff the show often dabbles in. But without McGoohan, a crucial piece of the puzzle is lost, and to make

Best Interview Ever?

Random-access memory powers them both.
In the same way computers connect scattered bits of information, this celebrated
Oct. 16, 2009: The Internet?s like that
?I?ve been doing a bunch of interviews recently and they?re all being sat on until the books come out. I?m sure I?ve repeated myself all over the place. I remember watching an old Hollywood songwriter, when his memoir was published, doing the rounds of
New Super Mario Bros. Wii video will make you want it now
So this isn't colored by the fact that I played a four-player game of New Super Mario Bros. Wii with its creator, Shigeru Miyamoto, but I'm pretty sure this game is going to be awesome.
Like a lot of people, playing Super Mario Bros. on the Nintendo
Wicked Transformer Halloween Decorations
This is a video of some guy in Cleveland that made giant Bumblebee and Optimus Prime Halloween decorations. They are most impressive. Granted, some teenage jerks in the neighborhood are gonna wreck them, but they're still cool while they last. Not
