Re: Fox picking up Narnia news: Am I really the only person who enjoyed Prince Caspian? I'm not saying either of the two Narnia movies are perfect, but I love them both and didn't find either one of them to be any kind of travesty.

(Although, yeah, Aslan's headgames in the second movie were kind of bullshit.)

(From annlarimer: Madame Alexander made two Narnia dolls? Hmm. Lucy really works at that size, and the White Witch... really, really doesn't. It's kind of... chibi!Jadis. Needs moar evil.)

made_of_fail_pc: Episode Twelve: Buckets Of Explosions!

From foresthouse: Michael Dirda at the Washington Post has a new book discussion group. "The Reading Room is relatively new, so it needs to build up sufficient numbers to keep it open. I'm trying to spread the word. : )"

Headset Vince fighting Church of Scientology through ShamWow proceeds: "He filed suit against them in 2004 for ruining his movie, his life, his business, and being dickholes. I couldn’t find any information on the outcome of this lawsuit, but according to ESPN, Vince is still fighting the good fight. And he is using every dime he makes from selling ShamWows and SlapChop as well as all the proceeds from Underground Comedy to fight them." (What's a ShamWow, you ask? Why, it'll absorb your fucking DOG!)

T-Shirt Hell is closing with a massive flounce: "Anyway, rather than cater to the masses, I'm just going to stop making shirts. It's not enjoyable anymore and I have enough money to move on to something more rewarding. Maybe I'll start my own hooker farm or maybe I'll practice sleeping. Whatever I decide to do, it will be better than this."

And expensive. And sparkly.

Related: Kristen Stewart Hangs With Joan Jett, Preps For ‘Runaways’ Biopic; 'Ohio' movie cast may include Robert Pattinson, and apparently there's some professional jealousy involved? "Zac [Efron] and Justin [Timberlake] have been working for a lot longer than he has. There is a bit of jealousy there. Zac’s people want him to have the lead. And Justin’s people have asked that he get a lot of screen time.” Given that the movie is "based on the 1970 murders of anti-Vietnam War protesters at Kent State University," I'm sensing some award-bait jostling here.

What I loved was the little mouse fanfare theme that played every time they did something, even sneak through the castle.
