The Daily Nerdgasm: My Kind Of Fillibuster
Patton Oswalt‘s appearance on this past Thursday’s PARKS & RECREATION featured oswalt doing a fully improvised fillibuster of the Pawnee City Council using his fan-fiction of what the upcoming Disney version of STAR WARS should be like in a screed of geekily epic proportions. I have to ding him for calling the X-men’s plane a Quinjet though.
But he was right about one thing…when you are looking for A-list super heroes the first name on the list should be Moon Knight.

Casting A Female Doctor Who
I recently watched a video of BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER/BATTLESTAR GALACTICA/TORCHWOOD writer Jane Espenson where she discussed the women of DOCTOR WHO and the conversation turned to the subject of a female Doctor (with Espenson suggesting that ANGEL alum Amy Ackerson would be a perfect casting choice) and it inspired me to do my own bit of wishful casting.

Devil Horns Rating:
What’s It About?
An in name only sequel to the 1967 film based on the Jacqueline Susann best-seller, BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS is a hodgepodge of a nonsensical Frankenstein of a movie centering on an all female rock band and their manager who travel to Hollywood to find fame and fortune but end up encountering heartache, betrayal and danger.
