Warner Bros has set Batman 3 for release on July 20, 2012, according to an internal email just sent by distribution chief Dan Fellman.

RE: Last night's 'FRINGE'
Look at me with a regular Friday feature over here.
I may have over-hyped this for myself because while Fringe last night was certainly a tremendous creative risk it didn’t consistently pay off. Frankly, I thought a lot of it was all over the place. The story was hard to follow and made little sense. But I guess that’s okay considering it came from an unreliable, stoned narrator.

'Chuck' fans to stage flash mobs to support show |... →
Is it still a flash mob if people know about it?
With the action-comedy on the bubble for a renewal, “Chuck” fans are staging themed flash mobs in at least four cities on Monday. In Chicago, Seattle, San Diego and Philadelphia, “Chuck” fans plan to gather while dressed in the show’s Buy More-style clothing (short-sleve work shirts, name tags and the like).

Apple To Shut Down Lala On May 31, iTunes.com... →
Ugh, this is sad. Lala is such a good streaming music site. Almost everything on command in a very organized, easy-to-use fashion. Apple purchased the site last year, and basically the article speculates that Apple may launch a similar service, which would be very nice.

If your co-workers turn up on Wednesday mornings bleary-eyed, if your spouse rattles on with theories about the transmutative properties of smoke monsters, if you yourself have been surfing the Internet for connections between the Casimir effect and the empiricism of David Hume — blame these guys.

Oh yes. From what I understand this was a long time coming. It’s about time someone stepped up and attempted to adapt Dark Tower.
In a whopping deal coming together quickly, Stephen King, Imagine Entertainment and Weed Road are in discussions to make a screen trilogy and TV series out of King’s epic novel series The Dark Tower. Akiva Goldsman will write the script, Ron Howard will...

Trailer: Jonah Hex
Finally. So odd for a studio to wait this long to release a trailer for what should be a big blockbuster for them. Based on current rumors, I was expecting the trailer to be a lot worse than it is. It doesn’t look bad, but I guess that’s what a trailer’s supposed to do. Make it look good.
Also, this is the Wild Wild West sequel that never was..

Nobody watched 'Party Down' | THR →
The season 2 premiere netted 126,000 viewers. And that’s it. Good thing this doesn’t really matter on Starz. Right?
I feel bad because I’m a loyal fan of this show but I can’t count myself as a part of that 126,000 because I streamed it online.

Bill Condon To Direct Twilight Saga's 'Breaking... →
This was heavily speculated on for a while. Condon directed Dreamgirls. I’m just surprised that they actually got an Oscar caliber director to do it. Who thought that prophecy would come true.
Also, it’s still ridiculous they’re even attempting to make a movie out of Breaking Dawn.
