Jesus, save me.
Well, hello, Dolly. Well, hello, Dolly - it's so nice to have you back where you belong. It's been 19 years since Dolly Parton has appeared on film, and Joyful Noise marks her triumphant return to the silver screen, and I couldn't be more thrilled.
9 to 5 was the first 45 record I ever owned (If you don't know what a 45 is, kiddies, do grandma a favor and look it up.), and I fell in love with Dolly instantly. With an angelic voice that sounds like a marshmallow soaked in honey, a platinum blonde wig halfway to heaven, and two ginormous pumped up ti- er... um lips, what's not to love?

I'm not sure what the proper way is to describe The Golden Globes awards show, but I think Oscar's red-headed step child evokes the right idea.
The Globes are an all-over-the-place popularity contest, whose outcome is largely based upon who kisses enough Foreign Press ass and/or sends the most expensive gift bags during award show campaigning.

A couple of weeks ago, DC finally released the controversial Elseworld's Finest 100-Page Giant. It was supposed to come out years ago and was recalled and destroyed based on some controversial subject matter. About 80 copies survived, making it an instant collector's item, lessened, I suppose, by its subsequent release. I guess Batman wearing nothing more than a cowl and Infant Superman's babysitter letting him play in the microwave weren't the images DC wanted to present at the time. Now, in the age of Casey Anthony and assassin Obama, I suppose it's tame in comparison.
Fanboy Comics Interviews Drones Creators and Cast - #6 of 6
Looking to start the new year with a laugh? You will not want to miss Drones, a hilarious new film that places the fate of the world on one man: Brian Dilks. Complacent in an office job, joking with his best friend, Clark, and harmlessly flirting with fellow cubicle-mate, Amy, Brian’s world changes when he discovers an improbably (and otherworldly) secret about Clark. Drones features a fantastic cast, including Jonathan M. Woodward (Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Angela Bettis (Dexter, May), Samm Levine (Thrilling Adventure Hour, Inglourius Basterds), and James Urbaniak (The Venture Brothers, Thrilling Adventure Hour).
Drones was written by Thrilling Adventure Hour co-creators Ben Acker and Ben Blacker, and it was co-directed by Thrilling alums Amber Benson and Adam Busch, who are also know for their roles on the hit TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The film was an Official Selection of Slamdance 2010 and features a soundtrack created by Jonathan Dinerstein, Dan Bern, and Busch’s band, Common Rotation.
Drones co-directors Benson and Busch, as well as co-star Samm Levine, chatted with Fanboy Comics President Bryant Dillon at Studio City comic book store ComicSmash to discuss the inspirations for the film, the creators who made the project possible, and where you can find a copy of the film!

If the old adage "The higher the hair, the closer to God" has any truth to it, the Long Island Medium's Theresa Caputo must be high as a kite, or so seems the bubbly, over-the-top medium (don't call her psychic!) and subject of TLC's Long Island Medium. This is my new favorite show and certainly the best thing to come out of Long Island since my friend, Rita. Hi, Ro!
Long Island Medium centers around real-life medium Theresa Caputo and her adorable family. With a frosted Darth Vader Helmet, nails longer than Hell, and a personality almost as big as her hair, the Long Island Medium is strangely addictive.
