Idol Chatter

While I know summer is here and we are all looking for perhaps lighter fare to watch on a Friday night, I stumbled across a fairly recent release that is haunting but yet not overly dark. “Shotgun Stories”is the tale of two sets of brothers who must decide if they will carry on a longstanding…

This touching documentary–which won the 2009 Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Subject–follows a young Indian girl born with a cleft lip, and her journey to get an operation that will allow her to live a better life. The film premieres on HBO on June 3. Watch the trailer below. Smile Pinki on HBOUploaded by…

Apparently there is serious talk about a new big-screen “Buffy” flick! My heart went all a flutter when I read the recent article, ““Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” Returning to Big Screen” sent to me by fellow Idol Chatter blogger Kris Rasmussen (who knows I’m a huge fan of all-things “Buffy” and vampires in general). It…

I saw this Youtube clip from “The Office” on Rainn Wilson’s Twitter account and just had to post it here.In it Dunder Mifflin boss Michael Scott asks Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson) to answer the question, “What’s the most inspiring thing I ever said to you?”

To say that “Terminator Salvation” is dark can’t be too understated.

Mike Tyson probably isn’t the most well-liked person in the world (being that he’s a convicted rapist whose been known to fight dirty in the boxing ring), but your heart just has to bleed for him knowing that his 4-year-old daughter died yesterday after a tragic accident. Exodus Tyson accidently hung herself with a piece…

What a shame. The days of news being reported neutrally, accurately, and fairly are gone. I am so uninspired by tuning into the news networks and President Barack Obama’s nomination of Sonia Sotomayor is a clarifying example. What a great news cycle this could be! Oh, how many great stories could be told. Our constitution…

The numbers aren’t official yet, but undoubtedly last night’s much hyped season premiere of “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ set ratings records for TLC. But for anyone tuning in who thought that the couple were going to engage in some true confessions about what’s really going on in their marriage amidst all of the tabloid…

I guess Britain’s infatuation with overnight sensation Susan Boyle isn’t over yet. The 47-year old singer who wowed audiences on “Britain’s Got Talent” a few weeks ago was back onstage last Sunday for the semi-finals and received another standing ovation for her performance. While I am thrilled for this underdog, I have to say her…
