Supernatural is one of several shows I plan
to check out this fall. I can’t guarantee reviews of
every episode for it, but I have time to review the
pilot. (I’ll be reviewing Smallville again,
and I may not have time to do two reviews each week.)
This episode airs again on Thursday; check it out if
you missed it last night.

Weekly DVD Picks – Tuesday, September 13, 2005
Sorry this is late. I was out of town last week, and
when I got home last night I realized that my entire
Bureau 42 directory was somehow neglected when backing
things up on the desktop computer in my switch from
Fedora to Kubuntu. (It’s all on the laptop, so it’ll
get rescued.) At any rate, this week looks a little
sparse, but that’s going to pick up dramatically by
the last week of October.

Scrawny lil\’ neighbour Venom?
y42 writes, Rumour has it that Topher Grace, better known as Eric, the lovable teenager from That 70’s Show, will play the ridiculously large and muscular villain Venom in Spider man 3. The good news is: New Line will not be making a Spider-man-free stand alone Venom movie.
Fall Sci-Fi Premiers
Thanks to Sci-Fi Wire for the dates (though I don’t really feel Desperate Housewives is really genre, Sci-Fi Wire does). I can’t really say I’m interested in any of the new shows. I may watch Invasion, but only because it’s on after Lost.

Review: Deep Space Nine Complete First Season
Today marks Star Trek’s 39th birthday. And with its present non-existent and its future looking frankly abysmal, let’s concentrate on the good times we once had, shall we.
Movie Discussion: A Sound of Thunder
This one’s getting universally panned. Pity, since it’s based on some classic Ray Bradbury. Anyone see it and feel like commenting?
Marvel to Produce Movies In-House
Along with changing their name to Marvel Entertainment (from Marvel Enterprises), the company has gotten financing from Merril Lynch to begin making movies in-house and then having someone else distribute them for a fee, similar to how Lucasfilm and Pixar (as of next year) work. Sci-Fi Wire has some more details. Titles that may be produced include: Captain America, the Avengers, Nick Fury, Black Panther, Ant-Man, Cloak and Dagger, Dr. Strange, Hawkeye, Power Pack and Shang-Chi.
MSNBC/Newsweek on the Set of "Superman Returns"
joe__gee writes, MSNBC and Newsweek this week have a peek at Superman Returns, which is due for a Summer 2006 release. The reader gets a little back story on the eleven year journey to revive the Superman franchise, and there’s a bit of reveal about the setup for this film. Do we have any bets on Lois Lane’s son’s name – will he be named Lars, Leroy, Lance, or Larry?

discomfort) of babasyzygy; CoMers Episode 10: Assault
