Radar Watch: Twilight, The Host, Syfy series, Whedonverse news, Avengers director, and a J. Edgar movie!
I love this part, the part where promotion gears up and we get all kinds of new pretty things. New Twilight: Eclipse stills have been released and can be found here and here. Also, the Twilight novella The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, which will be available to buy June 5 and online for free on June 7, is now available for preorder from Amazon for $7.69 if you want a hardcopy. Also, I’m very excited to say there’s finally more news on the film adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s novel The Host. (Which I’m currently 80% of the way into.) Andrew Niccol (“The Truman Show”, “Gattaca”, and a possible Will Smith movie “The City that Sailed”) is on a third draft of the script and it is expected to be shot in early 2011. Now all I want to know is what happened to his movie The Cross? I was looking forward to that one, too.
Radar Watch: Lions, and tigers, and bears!
There’s just something about Joss Whedon that we all love. And I’m pretty sure it’s for what’s up in his noggin, whether it be his sarcastic humor, passion for humanitarian efforts, or just your love for his work. So, yeah. I’m pretty sure it’s his brain. Unless you’re Neil Cameron and creating The A-Z of Awesomeness. Then, you might love…something else. Get your mind out of the gutter! Well, not completely out of the gutter.
io9 had an article today about the essence of the “F*@% Yeah” Moment. Basically, the moment where a character’s actions made you say…well, that. There’s some mention of Battlestar Galactica, Firefly and Serenity (River kicks the Reavers’ ass!). But when I’m thinking of F*@% Yeah moments I have to say Buffy in ‘Anne’ or ‘Showtime’. What are your favorite F*@% Yeah moments? Kudo points if you choose a Whedon show. (more…)
