This makes me sad:

BURBANK, CA, August 14, 2008 – Warner Bros. Pictures today announced that it has moved back the release date of “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” to Summer 2009. The sixth installment of the blockbuster Harry Potter franchise will now open day-and-date domestically and in the major international markets on July 17, 2009. The announcement was made by Alan Horn, President and Chief Operating Officer, Warner Bros.

In making the announcement, Mr. Horn stated, “Our reasons for shifting ‘Half-Blood Prince’ to summer are twofold: we know the summer season is an ideal window for a family tent pole release, as proven by the success of our last Harry Potter film, which is the second-highest grossing film in the franchise, behind only the first installment. Additionally, like every other studio, we are still feeling the repercussions of the writers’ strike, which impacted the readiness of scripts for other films—changing the competitive landscape for 2009 and offering new windows of opportunity that we wanted to take advantage of. We agreed the best strategy was to move ‘Half-Blood Prince’ to July, where it perfectly fills the gap for a major tent pole release for mid-summer.”

More on the moving of the release here. And I was so ready to sport my Team Edward shirt to opening night and start some fights. :P

EWWWWWW! Manga eyes should be relegated to things like this:

Not real people. (Manga Mandy is so much cuter than I am IRL. Sad.)

I love Twilight enough that I can take a good joke. Key word here: good. Thankfully, this is.

Remaking Rocky Horror is not a good idea.

The 2008 winners of the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest were posted earlier this week. This is my favorite:

Dimwitted and flushed, Sgt. John Head was frustrated by his constipated attempts to arrest the so-called “Bathroom Burglar” until, while wiping his brow, he realized that each victim had been robbed in a men’s room, thereby focusing his attention on the janitor, whose cleaning habits clearly established a commodus operandi.

Toilet jokes and literary humor? Oh snap.

This project needs to come to fruition:

Two cute (see what I did there? Nice, huh?):

Torchwood Babiez

I <3th Darth (I know, I know. I’m uber behind the times with this one. Deal.)

I love this little dude:

I’ve seen revamped My Little Ponies of Dr. Horrible and Captain Hammer, but these are great. It’s a phenomenon. More here.
