Well hello there, my fellow nerds! School is back in session. Everybody has on the latest fashions, torrented the required textbooks and finally swapped out that cliche Animal House poster with a Georgia O’Keefe. But some of you are different. You’re gonna sit in the back of the class, maybe wedgie everyone in the math club or maybe your taking part in one of this week’s stories.

Today’s Hollywood dish needs brains.
In Hollywood’s efforts to endlessly mine the rapidly decaying corpse of the 1980’s, movie execs have found yet another morsel to sink their teeth into. Sheesh. What the hell will be left by the end of all this? Frigging Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins?! Perhaps. Fred Ward and Wilford Brimley were heroes to some! No. Anyway, so yeah, Scarface, it’s your turn. Continue reading
So a little thing called the Emmys happened on Sunday night. There were scary moments, shameful things, a little fun, and Amy Poehler setting the awesome bar way high. Also, in other parts of Hollywood, Nic Cage writhes in a coffin; shows about fathers are getting help from a famous Dogg; Hollywood should just say what they mean; Television success can be had, one channel proves it, and how do you pronounce Versace? Is it really Ver-sassseee?
Greetings, Programs. Wait, let me start again. Hoi, Chummer! No, that’s not right. Do over. Hellllooooo, Nurse! I give up. This week, there’s been a lot of talk about second chances. Sony wasn’t exactly pleased with how you handled their security breach, Universal Pictures wants to pretend The Wolfman never existed and Halo: Combat Evolved gives Master Chief’s armor a fresh coat of paint. All this and Gary gets what’s coming to him on this week’s Nerd News Roundup.
Everyone loves lists and this one has ten great film performances that you should most definitely view before Hollywood decides to make it with an inferior actor.
