Hollywood Babble On & On #408: Mini Musings

Welcome to the show folks....

1. The Nevada prison housing OJ Simpson was flooded with media inquiries after gossip pimp Perez Hilton reported (falsely) that the "Juice" was severely beaten.

That'll teach Perez to stop reading Roger Avery's prison Tweets.

2. A woman has been sentenced to jail time for trying to pirate the movie New Moon.

I'd have locked her up for thinking that New Moon was worth pirating.

3. In other vampire related news Jonny Depp and Tim Burton are going ahead with their adaptation of the old gothic-vampire soap-opera Dark Shadows. I'm having visions of Helena Bonham Carter in some sort of goth accouterments for some reason.

4. And finally, this trailer for a TV pilot that hasn't been made yet. Though only a couple of minutes long, it's still more entertaining than a lot of shows currently running on TV, and pretty much beats NBC's entire prime time line-up.

    I watched that trailer and while I still have no real idea what it's about I would definitely watch it. At least a couple of episodes.

    Off topic question:
    What is the movie/television show being referenced in your current banner? I can't place it and it's driving me slightly crazy.

    Just found the photo, thought it looked fitting, but I don't know where it comes from.

  3. Well, Shoot. I was hoping you could tell me. I know I recognize it, (or at least recognize the lady at the wheel), but I just can't place it. I'm thinking a television show from the late 60's early 70's (my youth) when I actually watched television on a regular basis but I could be wrong and it's a movie of that era instead.
