Video-game publisher Midway Games (MWY - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) may have just sealed its fate.
Stranglehold, the company's biggest release of the year, debuted Wednesday to lackluster reviews, dashing any remaining investor hope that Midway might halt its descent into obscurity.
But with Stranglehold's stumble, the outlook for investors could turn bleak. Poor game sales could kill hopes that the company may turn the title into a franchise. Midway still has its long-running Mortal Kombat and Unreal Tournament franchise
Coming to DVD, HD DVD and Blu-ray.

Life, TMT reader, is comfortably predictable:
Rolling Stoner-getting-older guitarist Keith Richards recently acted on a good bit' o' mid-life crisis.
After fringing some Levi's in his bedroom to the sweet sounds of a Styx album, ironing his show bandana, and sparking up a juicy roach, Richards decided (aside from the fact that wearing a really frayed, TOTALLY BAD ASS bandana IS rock ?n' roll) that with rock ?n' roll comes considerable responsibility.
So, Richards (...)

Writer John August has reportedly turned in his screenplay for New Line's Shazam! movie, based on the DC Comics character Captain Marvel. "If Captain Marvel didn't pre-exist and there was just an idea of a 13-year-old boy who can speak a magic word and turn into a superhero — that's a great idea," August told moviesblog.mtv.com. He continued, "If it hadn't been around for 50 years and someone just wrote it as a spec script, that would sell cause it's a really good idea." August also revealed that Shazam! will be an action comedy. "It's not Spider-Man plus jokes. There's really good comic potential there," he explained. "The people that are going to go see this movie opening weekend are going to be excited to see [action and comedy] together." Peter Segal is attached to direct Shazam!
Looking like something Doc would own in Back to the Future, Richard Mille's Planetarium-Tellurium clock is a beautifully intricate device, able to provide extremely accurate details about the workings of our Solar System. The clock provides not only the exact positions of the Earth, Venus, Mercury, the Sun and the Moon (who needs the other planets, anyway?) but the current axis of the Earth, its position relative to the Sun, the rotation of the Moon, and even the current signs of the Zodiac.
Mille used a famed astronomer-physicist to help with the exact calculations, and the only data that's a bit faulty is the current axis of the Earth -- which can get off by plus or minus one degree every 7.7 years (just faulty, faulty craftsmanship.) No price or release info just yet, but we're going to guess it's going to cost somewhere between a flux capacitator and a human kidney. [WatchLuxus via Technobob]

Getting tired of that old, gray and grungy cellphone of yours? Put away that iPhone envy and go to the Instructables site, which will show you how to kiss that frog with pearly colors and turn it into a handsome prince. But spraying a gleaming coat of paint on a delicate instrument such as a cellphone is not quite as easy as you might think.
It requires major surgery. You need to take all of the parts out of the phone's case, because just a few drops of paint in the wrong places will turn that badass tech into just another inert object. You also need to carefully cover up any of the chrome areas with adhesive tape, requiring intricate detail work with a tiny knife. Then it's time to spray on multiple layers of your favorite color. Go with the metallic! Get the full step-by-step instructions at the Instructables site. [Instructables]
