How many ways is New Moon (the movie) better than New Moon (the book)? We ran the numbers , and the answer is 34. This is less a testament to the vagina-less Chris Weitz than it is a credit to Kristin Stewart's much improved demeanor and Taylor Lautner's not-at-all restless abs.

For example, as CNN reports, Courtney Love is being sued for sending a defamatory tweet out on Twitter (she accused a clothing designer of being a drug dealer). CNN claims that the suit confronts "new and unaddressed areas of American law."...
