Angel (TV series): List of Minor Angel Characters, Los Angeles, Buffyverse, Hyperion Hotel, Undeveloped Buffy the Vampire Slayer Spinoffs, Hugo Award, Douglas Romayne
Buys The theme of this week's buys is people fighting the supernatural on tv. I got the Sarah Jane Adventures Series 2 and for really, really cheap, all seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I've probably watched less than a season of Buffy over the years, but I've never disliked it, and recent Whedon discoveries like Firefly and Dr. Horrible made me jump at the chance of getting all seven seasons essentially...
We can't even remember what music we were into in 2002. One thing's for sure, we'd never heard of ANY of the above artists. Except for Christina that is. Oh and ['the'] Sugababes. We suppose we may have been vaguely aware of Missy Elliott, but overall the year of 2002 was more about Shakira's "Whenever, Wherever", and the world-shaking significance of Avril Lavigne's debut than any 'serious'...
One of the common practices in the independent movie industry is to share favors to keep production costs low. I loan you use of a camera and you later do some editing for me on the cheap. Of course, it is often actually less direct then that: I loan you the camera, the community knows that I am generous, and when I need some editing time on the cheap, my social capital in the film community makes...
Back in the day, Interview with the Vampire was one of my fave movies while Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the TV show, NOT the movie!) was my obsession. But I must admit that I came to the Twilight saga a little later than most. And while I can’t claim that the books are “good,” there is a certain addictive quality to them that can’t be denied, so I quickly made my way through all...
In grade school, we were all big Clash of the Titans fans…playing Perseus vs. the Kraken in the pool, checking out Edith Hamilton’s mythology again and again and again from the school library. The nuns just loved that, let us tell you. “Can’t you read something on St. Sebastian or St. Thomas of Whatever?”. Nope, [...]
After a failed attempt to see the film on Thursday night, I finally was able to see The Twilight Saga: New Moon yesterday afternoon so that I could weigh in on all the hoopla. Long story short, I really enjoyed New Moon and found it much, much better than the first Twilight film: To be [...]
David Letterman: Sarah Palin says that she felt ambushed when Katie Couric asked her what newspaper she read. This coming from a woman who shoots wolves from a helicopter! That's not a joke, it's an x-ray of the conservative soul: Implicit double-standard view of the world? Check! Implicit sense of entitlement? Check! Casual violence? Check! Casual violence towards those helpless to fight back? Check!...
So … let me tell you about my night. As I mentioned earlier, I was allllllllllllll set to see The Twilight Saga: New Moon with my good friend Amber (who I hadn’t seen in many months so I was really excited to have a fun night with her) last night and, well, the night [...]
Thanks to a little movie called Twilight, vampires have become a bigger pop culture phenomenon than ever before. But Edward Cullen isn’t the only good looking vampire on the scene. There were many others before him who were equally attractive and powerful with their own moves, sad histories, and terrible romances. In celebration of Twilight: New [...]
We've got this Buffy the Vampire Slayer poster at home (you can click on it to see it bigger), and it's funny, before we bought it, it looked perfectly fine.. but when you have a closer look, there are at least 4 really weird things about it, and probably more that haven't spotted yet too! Unbelievable for an official poster.. it's like one of those "What's wrong with this picture?" things...
Jolly Carl DiOrio, my favorite box office prognosticator, appears to be taking the weekend off, and Variety isn’t getting specific. However, it’s not like even someone as bad at guessing these things as I am really needs a guru to figure out that, barring the sudden disappearance of all females between the ages of 10 [...]

Where was possibly retirement-contemplating director Chris Weitz around lunchtime today, mere hours before the release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon ? Sitting in the back of a Town Car snarled in Manhattan traffic, answering Vulture’s questions. We caught up with him en route from an interview on Elvis Mitchell’s radio show to a taping of the director’s cut for the DVD. He talked...
Celebs of varying degrees of fame and hotness were on hand at Voyeur in West Hollywood, CA last night to attend US Weekly’s Hot Hollywood 2009 event in order to see and be seen. Here are a few pics from the red carpet of who made the guest list at last night’s event: For the [...]
Women of a certain age (that's me and our blogger Tvor covered, then) will remember a certain Coronation Street character called Charlie Whelan. He was a long-distance lorry driver with a big rig who wooed Bet Lynch in the back room of the Rovers. He then broke her heart when he had a fling with fellow Rovers barmaid, The Evil Tanya Pooley. An email today to the blog prompts me to note that John Saint...
