Idol Chatter

As you may have read in Sherry Huang’s Idol Chatter post yesterday, a new parody website, Disbeliefnet.com, has just launched. Designed as a marketing tool promoting Bill Maher’s upcoming documentary, “Religulous”–which will explore the problems with religion in the world– the site is essentially an Onionified version of Beliefnet. I recently received an email “prayer…

There’s a new tongue-in-cheek religion website and its sacrilegious name is Disbeliefnet.com. You may notice similarites to our site (especially in the logo and eCards designs), to The Onion (for its irreverent humor), and Slate.com (in its heavy-handed “news” coverage). The site is a marketing tool created by Lionsgate to promote “Religulous,” an upcoming documentary…

People have been predicting the end of the world since, well, the beginning of it. For some, the Last Days are the ultimate righting of the scales, for some, the dark at the end of the tunnel, and for some, simply a “mulligan” on the current state of affairs. My new book “Apocalypse How” encourages…

In my quest to unearth hidden movie gems this summer season, I have stumbled across a heist movie I have heard little about. In fact, heist movies aren’t really my thing, but “Flawless” out on DVD this week, is an excellent old-fashioned period mystery with a tiny bit of social commentary slipped in for good…

The epic basketball showdown has almost arrived. Televisions and sports bars around the country will all be tuned into the NBA Finals for the classic match up of the Boston Celtics versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Both teams have experienced dramatic turnarounds this year. Key trades brought perfect complimentary players to their teams. Cover stories…

If you love Christian music of all kinds, you’ll love our brand new blog, Gospel Soundcheck. Written by music journalist, Joanne Brokaw, the blog will include reviews, commentary, interviews, video, and more on your favorite Christian artists and music–everything from pop and rock to southern gospel and praise and worship. Of course, Idol Chatter will…

The summer conversations often go like this: “What are you doin’ this weekend?” “Goin’ to a show.” “Yeah, what movie are you going to see?” There was a time when “show” didn’t mean TV or the movies—it meant live people on stage, right before your eyes, giving their all in a way that often caused…

One of the few reality shows that attempts to do more than humiliate or promise a career is Morgan Spurlock’s (“Supersize Me”) FX series “30 Days.” The third season debuts tonight and continues Spurlock’s premise of learning life lessons by spending thirty days in someone one’s shoes. In tonight’s episode , Spurlock will spend thirty…

What’s with all the negative reviews for “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”? It’s almost as if all of these critics have gotten older over these last 19 years! I think the most profound revelation about the response to the current Indy flick is that we have all gotten older and our…

Actor Stephen Baldwin lives on the skinniest edge in Hollywood. Though he has a recognizably significant movie to his credit (“The Usual Suspects“), these days he’s more often associated with the slacker classic “BioDome.” He’s even more famous, however, for being the little brother of Alec. As a Christian, his evangelical standing is propped precariously…
