I Am (A Slacker) Link

Yeah, so my brain kinda went on the fritz yesterday. Anyway. Here's some stuff.

--- Faith No More - The final issue of Brian K. Vaughn's arc in the Buffy: Season 8 comics, dealing with Faith the Vampire Slayer, hits the stores today. Will our girl prove (once again) her worth? Always with the muddied moral compass, Faith! These past couple of issues have been prime stuff, though; I hope all y'all who profess to be Buffy fans have been partaking too.

--- "Why So Serious?" - Why does that tag-line hit my happy button? I think it's that slithering alliteration of "S" sounds... anyway, it's given prominent placement on the new teaser poster for The Dark Knight, seen over at AICN. What do we think? I think I like.

--- Hitchcock By Scorsese Way - I spaced on watching this video yesterday so it'll have to wait until this evening for me, but y'all, if you haven't yet, can see this Martin Scorsese doing Hitchcock movie that's making the rounds right on here. It seems to have inspired mucho geek salivation.

--- Shadow Players - ModFab's got the latest Battlestar Galactica preview, which shows nothing but some talking heads and still gives me a hard-on all the same.

--- Milk Got - Three actors are circling roles in Gus Van Sant's Harvey Milk biopic - Josh Brolin as Milk's rival and killer; Emile Hirsch as a young gay activist; and James Franco (seen at left; I seem to be coming around on Franco suddenly) as Milk's boyfriend. Sean Penn's playing Milk. It's been shameful the way I've dodged most of Van Sant's recent work; the last one I saw was Elephant and I scarcely remember it. But this cast, and this subject, is drawing me in, I do believe.

--- Chenbot's Roasting On An Open Fire - Urgh. Big Brother is going to be back on the telly in January because of this blasted strike. Will I be sucked in anew? Or did the abortion of last season finally stake my BB-lovin' heart to dust? Stay tuned!
