Who? Adrianne Palicki cast as the new Wonder Woman

Adrianne Palicki cast as the new Wonder Woman Times & Transcript Published Friday February 18th, 2011 Adrianne Palicki will play Wonder Woman in David E. Kelley's new TV pilot for NBC, Entertainment Weekly reports. And considering her gorgeous looks and incredible height (she's 5'11"!), the 27-year-old seems like the perfect choice to play the super Amazon. Kelley's script for the Wonder Woman pilot has received underwhelming reviews, but Palicki's casting could be the show's saving grace - after all, she's already received plenty of critical praise for Friday Night Lights and the lauded-but-short-lived Lone Star. Still, the actress has her work cut out for her, as she'll actually be playing three separate roles on Wonder Woman: billionaire business mogul Diana Themyscira, Diana's ho-hum assistant Diana Prince and, of course, the titular superhero. A few more roles still need to be cast before the pilot goes into production, but Wonder Woman is considered one of NBC's best bets for the Fall 2011 season.

It was only a matter of time…

Calling all Star Wars fans ... lightsaber club now in Fredericton Published Friday February 11th, 2011 As Yoda might say, skilled with a lightsaber, he is. THE DAILY GLEANER/JAMES WEST PHO Lightsaber club: Brad Doucette demonstrates his lightsaber skills during a recent sparring round. In Brad Doucette's world, Star Wars is huge and he wants to share his passion with others. Last October, he and like-minded friends started to meet in Queen Square, where he demonstrated his lightsaber skills. He has studied how to use one since he was a child. When it was too cold to meet outdoors, they started to meet indoors and a club, called East Coast Sabers, was formed. Every Monday night since then, over 30 club members, who range in age from 11 to 36, meet to practice their techniques. Some come with their own lightsabers, others borrow them from Doucette, who owns many of them. "I show them all about the lightsabers, how to use them and how they [...]

The Dead Matter (July 30; Precinct 13 Entertainment) gets in Top 10 for Horror

This is a film done by Edward Douglas the composer of Midnight Syndicate. His music has been playing in haunted attractions for years now and he finally gets to take a dip in the vast directing pool. The Dead Matter is just as haunting and creepy as the gothic soundtracks Ed puts together every year. The film tells the story of a woman who wants to contact her deceased brother and stumbles upon a relic that can control the dead. She ends up getting mixed up with two warring vampire lords who want to control the power of the relic, where as one vampire hunter wants nothing more than to just destroy it. The Dead Matter feels like a story right out of the popular role playing game 'World of Darkness' bringing different fictional creatures together into the same world. I hope to see more installments in the Midnight Syndicate series in the near future just as good as this one. From http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/22885. Congrats to [...]
