ComingSoon.net has an exclusive interview with director Joe Wright ( Pride and Prejudice ) about helming the riveting adaptation of Ian McEwan's best-selling novel Atonement , starring James McAvoy, Keira Knightley and newcomer Saoirse Ronan.

"Admit it. You've got an old GameCube from yesteryear laying around, and the slow economy (and fear for your life) is holding you back from running to your nearest brick-and-mortar to pick up a Classic Controller for your Wii. You know you want to play Super Mario 64 to work off that turkey, but you can't justify laying out the cash. Fret not; YouTube user marcan42 has you covered, courtesy of a PIC18F4520 microcontroller and makeshift GameCube connector, along with a chopped off Nunchuk extension cord. Of course, you could just pick up a different model, but that would be way too easy. We didn't say it was pretty, but if you're still intrigued, check the full vid after the break."
It's official: The search giant will square off next month against established wireless giants including AT&T and Verizon.
Shacknews writes:
"Shacknews has separately learned from multiple reliable sources that Midway Austin designer Harvey Smith, who recently headed up the alien-themed shooter BlackSite: Area 51 (PC, PS3, X360), is no longer with Midway. One source explicitly alleges he was fired, but another suggests the departure was more mutual.
Smith recently made waves when he referred to the development of BlackSite as "so fucked up," citing problems within Midway and a general lack of proper management on the project. Over the course of the game's development and after its release, Smith trumpeted the game's political themes, characterizing it as "super fucking subversive." Smith has called for more developers to tackle complex issues in their games."

Last week, a lot of folk were traveling and very few stood by their TV sets as shown by the overall low numbers on Wednesday night. The alphabet scored decent ratings for such a low numbered night with their Shitner helmed SHOW ME THE MONEY, but was still edged out by the circular story telling of the people in the town of JERICHO. No one wanted to hear Madonna's secrets as her CONFESSIONAL TOUR started near the bottom of the pack, and stumbled into dead last in its second half hour. Maybe now that she's got her AARP card, it may be time for he to come out with SEX II. . . not that I still own the original, nor the CD that it came with. . . cause I totally don't.
The Moonves network grabbed the #1 spot at 8pm and with the helpful sex appeal of Mandy Patinkin crossed with the subtle writing of CSI: NY maintained its lead throughout the night nearly doubling all of the other major networks in viewers and shares.

Once he's finished tackling teen pregnancy with the up-and-coming Ellen Page and Juno, director Jason Reitman is looking to don his ninja outfit for a flick called Bonzai Shadowhands. Those of you who are big fans of the Americanized version of The Office will be happy to hear that the script is being written by Rainn Wilson (aka Dwight), as a starring vehicle for himself. Reitman will helm, as well as produce alongside his Hard C partner Daniel Dubiecki for Fox Searchlight.
As of now, the plot is being kept hush hush, however the Hollywood Reporter tells us the dark comedy will revolve around a "once-great ninja who is now living a life of mediocrity." It sounds a bit silly, but Reitman seems to have a good eye for material and, while his father dedicated most of his career to straight comedies, the younger Reitman seems like the kind of guy who wants to spice up the genre, concentrate more on story and character, as well as darken -- not lighten -- up the mood. And I dig that about him. In saying that, I'm not crazy about Wilson in The Office (Mackenzie Crook, in my mind, was so much better in the role), and never had a chance to see him in My Super Ex-Girlfriend. (In fact, it was on the set of Ex-Girlfriend where Wilson and Reitman first met.) Could Wilson, who spends most of his time playing the most annoying character on the face of the planet, successfully carry a film all on his own? Jason Reitman seems to think so -- what about you?

U.S. consumers are still pretty happy with their shoes, soap and beer, but not so pleased with the cost of their food and cigarettes, according to one survey. The University of Michigan's American Customer Service Index, which conducts the quarterly survey of about 20,000 people, reported Monday that customer satisfaction dropped about 0.1 percentage point compared to the previous quarter.
Yesterday, we talked about
Leon Black, the character played by
J.B. Smoove that
single-handedly opened the ass of Season 6, stepped inside it, spray-painted
"Leon Was Here" all over the walls, ate some Snickers bars, threw some paper on the floor, spit, and left that ass wide open. We didn't think anything could trump the
"Get in that ass, Larry!" speech... until Sunday night, we were treated to an episode finale so funny and satisfying that we had to watch it 5 more times to fully appreciate it. And thanks to the joys of Youtube, that finale is finally online.
So if you missed Sunday's episode, it's safe to say that this is a serious
spoiler alert. But if you want to relive the amazingness of what went down with
Larry LD David, please, we beg you, check out this video. Larry dragging his kid off the soccer field and the Susie Smackdown is just...

SUNDAY AM: I heard Tom Cruise did Lions For Lambs for "virtually nothing" to help kick-start his revival of United Artists. Without that, the movie starring Cruise, Meryl Streep and Robert Redford, who also directed, never would have gotten off the ground. Maybe that would have been kinder. Because even with a very moderate budget of $35 [...]

Ripten: "I haven't played Fallout 3. But please, somebody who has, please tell me: do all the NPCs have bulletproof adamantium skulls? I understand every action in the game is determined by stats and behind-the-scenes dice rolls, and that the game isn't an action game or a shooter, but this is pretty ridiculous, and if it's not totally indicative of what actually goes down in the game, well, it's at least funny.

Why, Billy, why? Just when some people we
know made up had finally finished paying off the credit card interest after buying
FOUR different versions of
Smashing Pumpkins'
Zeitgeist-- which, let's face it, is no
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness-- at
FOUR different retailers, you go and plop another one on us.
Zeitgeist: The Umpteenth Unnecessary Edition or whatever drops at Best Buy locations and only Best Buy locations October 30 (aka tomorrow). It seems indie retailers (not to mention fans) can suck it once again.
Why, when you already have the regular edition, the Target edition, the iTunes edition, and the original Best Buy edition, might you actually consider possibly wanting this artifact too? Well, it has a few bonus tracks-- one from the first Best Buy
Zeitgeist ("Death From Above"), one from the iTunes
Zeitgeist ("Stellar"), and one that appears nowhere else ("Ma Belle"). It also comes with a DVD sporting the full-length documentary
Inside the Zeitgeist. And, um, somebody put the cover art in Photoshop and desaturated it. (They're calling this a "metallic silver color scheme"; it's a "scheme" all right.)
Well, at least they got one thing right. Excess is very much in the spirit of the times.

Released in 1982, the ColecoVision was infamous for advertising games using doctored, or artist renditions of screenshots designed to look like a completed game. Various other advertised games were never even released.
Other problems: Coleco Industries tried to do too much and made a hardware expansion module (the Adam), turning the console into a full blown computer. Consumers balked at the $600 price tag, despite the Adam containing a new Digital Data Pack, which were higher capacity than older audio cassette drives. The failure weakened Coleco, which eventually filed for bankruptcy. – Jason Chen

California's attorney general said Monday that he would sue the Environmental Protection Agency in an attempt to force it to decide whether to let California and 11 other states impose stricter standards on certain vehicle emissions. The lawsuit comes 22 months after California first asked the EPA to let the state impose tougher regulations on emissions of greenhouse gases from cars, pickup trucks and SUVs.

(S14E04) Man, what a crappy day for Abby. First, she gets a hairstyle reminiscent of 1976 (Pratt's comments about her being ready for her yearbook photo, and the boys comments about Farah Fawcett were the best), Then her son falls at the park and she ends up working on his condition while screaming in terror inside. On her way home, shortly after Baby Joe is discharged she nearly gets into an accident. Finally, to top it all off she craves a tumbler of wine to soothe her nerves.
Here's what I say about all of this: it's all Luka's fault.

Because of its small size, the shuffle generally gets left out in the cold when it comes to docking with iPod accessories. Meanwhile, the big boys are docking with every cheap gadget and speaker accessory in sight. The folks at FastMac believe that it is high time the shuffle became a woman. Thanks to the U-Connect, shuffle owners can now connect their player to virtually any iPod dock accessory. It can even charge the device and perform data transfers. Available for $15.95. [
