Supernatural 4.20 "The Rapture"

It's a Castiel episode this week! YAY!

Or ... is it?

Everyone's favorite perdition gripping angel is called back to Heaven (probably for "not" helping Dean in Monster at the End of This Book) and the boys meet his vessel.  Jimmy.

Oh, Show.  First the Prophet Chuck and now this. 

Behold! I am Jimmy, Instrument of the Lord!

Charles Beeson directed the episode written by Jeremy Carver.

And, bonus this week! Interviews with all three actors from Australian TV.



Oh, silly silly Misha. You had us at hello. Now, I will take a small issue with their blanket assertion that the fandom hates all female characters. A number of the guest stars have been well received - Haley and Jamie come to mind - and personally I would love to see them bring back CRD2 herself, Ona Grauer.

The fans just hate the female characters that suck.

*cough* Bella *cough*



Supernatural airs Thursday at 9:00 pm EDT on the CW

And my fangirl heart went SQUEE!!

I've mentioned before that while I love super hero movies, I'm not so much a fan of comics themselves. 

That being said, DUDE! Neil Gaiman wrote a Batman comic? To the wax|wendymobile!

The final part of Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader is in stores today.  Buy early and often.

Shirley Manson is awesome and should be on Craig Ferguson every night for 5 minutes.   It wouldn't even matter what they talked about.  We could all just bask in their accents for those few sweet minutes.

No need for anti-virals or Tamilflu, I plan to stave off the sickness by eating as much BBQ, country ham, and bacon as humanly possible.

ETA: You should totally be following David Herrold on Twitter. Swine flu hates you. And your favorite band.

Women who kick ass: Nobel Centenarian edition

I will be happy if I am only 1/4 as fabulous as Rita Levi Montalcini when I'm 1/2 her age.

I mean, come on.  Just deal with this picture a minute. This lady eats  awesometoast with fabulous jam every day.

This is what I want to be when I grow up.

Italian scientist Rita Levi Montalcini, turning 100, still making. It. WORK.

I review it : Crank 2 High Voltage

Crank 2: High Voltage is 96 minutes of "What the hell? No, seriously, what the hell did I just see? Hey, is that Cory Haim??"

They should really just stop making movies altogether.

Because this is the greatest movie that has been, or ever will be made, in the history of the human race. Now, that is not to say that it isn't offensive, gratuitously violent, and demeaning and degrading to every man, woman, and inanimate object in it. Because it is. 

And it is glorious.

10,000 volts of thumbs up!

We also got the preview for something called The Hangover with Will from Alias and Andy from The Office. The funniest bits are all probably in the trailer, but I'd be willing to pay cash money just for the scene with Iron Mike.

I'm motherfrakking Boomer, bitch! Pop, Pop!

It's Friday, and it's still hard to let go. So many questions still lingering. Grace "Sharon Valeri/Boomer/Athena" Park has some answers.

British Friday - Why yes, I am going to the chinema tonight edition

Why do you ask?

Crank? More like crack. I am inexplicably excited for this movie. And! AND! It features the Bai Ling! Who had this to say about that little something special that she brings to the filum:

All these weird things come to my mind. Everything I say is like strange - it doesn't make any sense to you, but in her character, when you hear her, it makes perfect sense.

Yeah! Sure, the Bai Ling! Whatever you say!

Um, except this.

Bai said she hopes she'll return to Lost at some point. "They told me it's like the pyramids. Every character, every element is planned. I love that show."

Yeah, no.  Just no.   Although her previous turn on Lost also featured the simply fabulous Diana Scarwid. Who's character has never been seen or spoken of again.  So I'll give you a pass, the Bai Ling, if you bring Diana with you.  And leave the tattoo needles at home.
