The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. David Murray, who'd been set to star as Destro in the upcoming G.I. Joe movie, apparently had some troubles with his Visa, and couldn't make it into the States in time for the start of shooting. So now Chris Eccleston will get the role. Which is actually pretty cool. Doctor Destro! Word came out a while back that......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. Nintendo has released its lineup of DS and Wii releases for the first half of 2008. WiiWare will also be launching in that time period, supposedly. And Myst will be coming to your DS in March. Steve Jobs' 90-minute keynote at MacWorld was just too long, which is why this version of the keynote, edited down to just 60 seconds (via), is so......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. While we were watching Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles last night (which, btw, was surprisingly good), we saw a cool Dell commercial with a kick-ass soundtrack, and a quick Google search turned up the video, and the important information that the awesome song is a new, original track from Devo! Sweet. Elijah Wood said some interesting things about the upcoming Hobbit......

What's new and/or interesting on TV this week. Paranormal State (Mon, 10PM-11PM, A&E) - The debut of a new reality show featuring members of Penn State University's Paranormal Research Society investigating reports of paranormal phenomena. During this hour, they seem to be playing two episodes, one about a boy who can supposedly see dead people, and another about a supposedly haunted house where murders were committed. Independent Lens (Tue, 10PM-11:30PM, WHYY) - It's another Penn......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. Mr. Pringles gives a press conference, wherein he attempts to explain some of his recent shameful behavior. Heh. (Via) Check out an episode of "Crusader Rabbit," one of the first, if not the first, TV cartoon show. The animation is pretty primitive, the jokes are rather corny, and the whole plotline of wanting to destroy the entire state of Texas is......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. Apparently Final Fantasy XII has leaked out all over the internet. It certainly wouldn't be legal or nice to go download a copy right now... Speaking of final fantasies...it's the 2007 12-month Nerdcore calendar (NSFW), featuring naked pictures of gamer girls - or at least, cute girls with gaming implements somewhere near their bodies. The perfect decoration for a dorm room......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite *movie-related* things from around the internets. (We saw a theme coming up in the items we were finding for today, so we decided to go with it. Enjoy a special all-movie edition!) We already mentioned it in our Celebrity column this week, but we just had to talk about it in more detail here: Sweeney Todd - which tells the story of a vengeful, murderous barber whose victims......

Exciting changes are coming to our fair town, friends, in the form of department stores, restaurants/concert halls, and maybe even a casino: The Lord and Taylor across from City Hall, as well as the Strawbridge's at 8th and Market, will close around June 1st. The Strawbridge's will then be gone for good, but the L&T will reopen as a Macy's in August. We could have two new House of Blues restaurants soon, one in the......
