    Lady Gaga in a bra, a sneak peak of the new Super Bowl Pepsi…

    Lady Gaga in a bra, a sneak peak of the new Super Bowl Pepsi commercial .. set to start a stir.
    By the time the halftime show rolls, we will wonder if we are shaken or stirred..

    There is a high degree of attention being paid or the show this year. Hollywood and showbiz has taken to the airwaves to protest every move Donald Trump makes. If things go as some hope, Gags will make a political statement. In that light, there is already online petitions asking her to be BANNED> Because we have become frightened of FREEDOM OF SPEECH in Amurica…?

    Regardless, I am intrigued as well by whether the LADY will make her appearance political in nature.

    I predict this: We will hear some old songs..we will hear Poker Face.. we will see Patriots fans dancing (before and after the game, I predict as well) …and we will get a covert statement. Nothing overt.

    But that’s just me.. and my little zany prediction…
    The game time is coming. We will see soon.

    Clive Barker Will Develop $300,000 Horror Movie With Winner of Upcoming Contest

    Clive Barker Will Develop $300,000 Horror Movie With Winner of Upcoming Contest :


    From Feb. 13 to March 17, filmmakers can head projectgreenlight.com to upload a pitch (one to three minutes) of an original horror film concept. Ten semi-finalists will be selected and voted on by the public as well as a judging panel. The winner of the audience vote will advance, along with four chosen by the judges. Those five finalists will receive funding to shoot a short scene to show off their chops.

    In June, the finalists will be invited to the second annual Shudder Labs, a creative retreat where they will receive more guidance on how to enhance their scenes. Then one winner will be selected to develop their film with Barker serving as executive producer.

    Such a good idea.. Inventive.
    And it continues to help in the modern rebirth of horror..
    Will be watching ..

    The End of Employees. The Wall Street JOURNAL reports :

    Robots yes. Technology yes. But another thing workers are facing is the end of employment and the dawn of the age of the contractor .. for better or for worse ..

    The contractor model is so prevalent that Google parent Alphabet Inc., ranked by Fortune magazine as the best place to work for seven of the past 10 years, has roughly equal numbers of outsourced workers and full-time employees, according to people familiar with the matter.

    About 70,000 TVCs—an abbreviation for temps, vendors and contractors—test drive Google’s self-driving cars, review legal documents, make products easier and better to use, manage marketing and data projects, and do many other jobs. They wear red badges at work, while regular Alphabet employees wear white ones.

  • Asteroid will zoom past Earth in FOURTH close shave of 2017

    Asteroid will zoom past Earth in FOURTH close shave of 2017

    Asteroid will zoom past Earth in FOURTH close shave of 2017:

    2017 BS32  is expected to hurtle past at around 8.30pm Thursday.

    The space rock – estimated to be around 82ft in size – belongs to the Aten group of asteroids.

    Several of the thousands of Atens have been classed as “potentially hazardous” because of their proximity to Earth.

    It was only spotted on Monday by astronomers and is the fourth Near-Earth Asteroid to pass this year, according to eagle-eyed asteroid watchers.

    But fear not, these close encounters are more common than you might think and researchers at Nasa are keeping tabs on any strays at its Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

    Tonight’s close shave will be followed by another giant comet which will approach later this month.

    The 2016 WF9, was detected by Nasa in late November and is something of a mystery because of its strange behavior.

    At some point we will not be lucky.

  • Is it morally right to bring actors back from the dead?

    Is it morally right to bring actors back from the dead?

    Is it morally right to bring actors back from the dead?:

    It’s a discussion that has gained more attention in light of Carrier Fisher’s death, who also appeared in CGI form in Rogue One. In Fisher’s case, she gave permission for the VFX team to recreate her younger self for a Princess Leia cameo while she was still alive. When news of her sudden and tragic death on December 27, 2016 (a fortnight after Rogue One was released) spread, it was naturally assumed by most that the same CGI skill would be used to complete her role in Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Star Wars 9. In fact, some outlets reported that representatives had spared no time in negotiating with her estate for the rights to do so.

    Whether it is morally right or morally wrong, it is going to happen. More and more and more..

    ‘South Park’ to Back Off Mocking Trump:

    “They’re already going out and doing the comedy,” Parker adds. “It’s not something you can make fun of.”

    “We’re having our head blown off like everybody else,” Stone says.

    “It’s tricky and it’s really tricky now as satire has become reality,” Parker notes. “We were really trying to make fun of what was going on [last season] but we couldn’t keep up. What was actually happening was way funnier than anything we could come up with. So we decided to just back off and let [politicians] do their comedy and we’ll do ours.”

    Reality.. comedy.. fiction. It’s tough to tell the different between them anymore.

  • Freddy fans getting their wish: Robert Englund is coming back

    Freddy fans getting their wish: Robert Englund is coming back

    Just for one documentary .. not a work of fiction, but a culmination of Englund’s entire life as Freddy Krueger..

    EW had the exclusive story.. Highlights:

    Directed by Mike Kerz, the film finds Englund recalling his years playing Elm Street villain Freddy Krueger and paying tribute to filmmaker Wes Craven while makeup effects artist Robert Kurtzman transforms the actor into the feared dream-stalker. The film will also track Englund as he meets fans and Freddy and is interviewed in full makeup by horror host Svengoolie.

    x x x 

    “Nightmares in the Makeup Chair is my love letter to the Nightmare on Elm Streetseries and to practical makeup,” says Englund in a statement. “I’ve always been in awe of the multi-talented makeup effects artists. From sketching to sculpting, they realize the design. Then to the fine precision of the molding and the manufacturing of the makeup appliances which are nearly paper thin. And then, the application process where I sit in the makeup chair and I become their living canvas as they glue me in and paint the appliances. This documentary not only captures their talent, but I think it might inspire a new generation of practical effects artists. I was happy to become Freddy once again to share the makeup process with the fans.”

    The swan song of the 20th century will be complete now with Fred appearing in the Fedora one last time..
    DOCU STYLE..

    But … what fans may fear: This is probably Englund saying by to fans in Freddy garb to drop the news that he is never coming back again..
