disclaimer: i wouldn't actually "do" Sarah Michelle Gellar. i did vote for her in this poll though. there's no way i can not vote for SMG.

i like her photo too.

some spoilers for the next season of Enterprise. some of them made me pound my head on the desk, crying that "Berman is the devil!" another has to be done right or Berman's diabolic nature will be confirmed. yeah, i know it's an interview with Braga, but everyone knows Berman's in charge and that he very well may be the ruination of the franchise

some season 4 Angel talk, and it DOES CONTAIN SPOILERS, possible, general and/or/but/for/to specific.

on the new captain of the Angel ship, David Simkins: Angel co-star Alexis Denisof (Wesley) told SCI FI Wire that Simkins has been doing his homework in preparation for taking over Angel. "He sat down this summer with his wife and watched 66 episodes of Angel from beginning to end in a marathon," Denisof said in an interview. "Can you imagine? ... They just took one tape out and put the next one in. He was just hammering it. I mean, that's more than any hardcore fan would do. So ... he's already got the bible in his head of the show. He's done his homework, and he's ready to go."

and why the hell can't i sit down and watch 66 episodes of Angel back-to-back? oh, because i'm not lucky enough to be Western European, Columbian or New Zealandian (Zealandish?).

my mom called last night to tell me that RHPS was on AMC. i was very happy. it'd been a long while since i'd done the Time Warp.

i love that my mom's first thought when she saw it coming on was to call me. greatest mom in the world.

btw, if you didn't go see it at the cinema, the dvd release of Kung Pow: Enter the Fist should hit on July 23. i thought it would be a humorous-but-stupid film but the boyfriend brought it home last Thursday, and i watched it three times. it's frigging hilarious, and i demanded that it be the next dvd we buy. really, go rent it. if you haven't seen it and are resisting, GO RENT IT! it's three bucks and 81 minutes of your life.

WB, UPN seek change. my favorite part: "I'm too old to change this stuff," said TBS chairman Jamie Kellner, who oversees the WB. "But I hope somebody younger takes the fight on… because we've been doing the same thing for so long and we have to break the cycle."

then get out now, i say.

thanks for a loving (and lovable) boyfriend, i can remove this from my wishlist.

he also bought the Nightmare on Elm Street Collection for himself. we had a Freddy film marathon, which led to two nights of nightmares for me. i'm such a wuss.

i was at the computer sometime last week and the boyfriend was flipping through channels on the television. he stopped on an MTV commercial for The Real World season finale and the reunion episode. "We'll have to watch that" he said. "Yeah," i agreed. a couple minutes later, puzzled, he asked "Why?" we thunked a minute, and by our count, we'd only watched the premiere and half of one later episode of the season.

we don't care about the characters real life people and have no interest in the show and its plot, but we were mesmerized and minion-ized by the commercial. Yes, Master, we will watch... it was scary the way we fell in line without resisting, and i wonder how many of the other things i decided to watch due to evil electronic mojo. i wonder now especially about my decision to be sure to watch the premiere of the E! True Hollywood Story: Liza Minnelli on Sunday, July 21 (though that could be the Judy gene kicking in).

take a vacation, the world goes to Hel (feeling Norse today):

The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Disney will do yet another remake of their family comedy The Shaggy Dog.

concerning Batman vs. Superman: the casting of the roles is going to be for 'actors' rather than 'stars' but Director Wolfgang Petersen mentioned he was impressed by Matt Damon's action & acting skills.

Filming is currently underway on this film based on a skit from "The Jamie Kennedy Experiment" show, the story follows a white would-be rap star from Malibu who thinks he's from the ghetto finds out what being from the ghetto is really like. John Whitesell is apparently directing.


the dubious (or possible signs that ragnarok is not upon us):

The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Sci-Fi has ordered a two-hour movie/backdoor pilot of a new version of Quantum Leap. The cable channel also plans to do a TV series spin-off of the "Tremors" movies.

A CG version of the early 80's animated feature The Last Unicorn

according to Dark Horizons, CNN reports that Luke Perry will guest star next season on Buffy, reprising the role of Pyke from the movie. (i checked CNN, but couldn't find anything about Luke Perry. and yes, i know, a report of a report, blah blah blah. fuck off).


the good (or signs that Odin smiles on us):

UPN's fall premiere schedule. Buffy on September 24th! let the countdown begin!
