Buffy Animated, Morgan Freeman, Asus, Box Office and Circuit City Parody

Buffy The Animated Series Teaser - Sadly the series never was picked up so all you can do is look at the four minute teaser to see what could have been. To get the lowdown on the series from Jane Espenson and Eric Wight, click here.


Asus Eee Box B202 Review - Hot hardware provides a good review of the new tiny desktop computer that costs only $349 for 1.6ghtz and 1gig of RAM. Basically if you use your computer to surf the web, watch porn and listen to music, this thing is perfect. If you’re into graphics, movie editing, or outputting to an HDTV, take a pass but the price alone should have told you that anyway.

Morgan Freeman in Accident - The great Oscar winner actor was hospitalized after a car accident in Mississippi. He is currently recovering from surgery and expected to make a full recovery, but may take 3 to 4 months to fully heal.

Dark Knight #1 Again - For the third week in a row, The Dark Knight rules the box office roost with a $43.8 million take as it probably zooms past the domestic $400 million mark today, just 18 days after the movie's release. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor took second with $42.5M, Step Brothers took $16.3M, Mamma Mia $13.1M and Journey to Center of the Earth took fifth with $6.9M. As a sign of what bad word of mouth can do to a movie, in only its second week X-Files 2 dropped 66% to a $3.4M haul.

Circuit City Rethinks MAD Ban - Friday a Circuit City rep jumped the gun and sent out a notice asking its stores to remove the magazine from the stores due to an unflattering parody of Circuit City. Yeah, I know I didn't know they sold magazines either but turn out about 40 of them too. Apparently the PR department caught wind of the event and reversed course, apologized and had a little fun with the incident. All in all the guy deserves a raise.
