Breaking Bad Paper Dolls

Posted on by

Two of my favorite things are 1] the tv series Breaking Bad and 2] art.  Combine the two and you could come up with Breaking Bad art for paper dolls.  Illustrator, Kyle Hilton created.  They’re pretty cool.  And this is coming from a guy who normally would not say that about paper dolls.

Jerry Lewis & the MDA: Winning

Posted on by

I’ve always had mixed feelings about Jerry Lewis and the MDA telethon.  It really surprised me to find out that the MDA basically dropped Mr. Lewis without so much as a fare-thee-well.  But love him or hate him, don’t you think that after 130 years as the host, Jerry Lewis should be allowed to go out in style?

Mark Evanier came up with a plan that would do just that plus raise a ton of money for the cause.  Let’s hope someone with pull reads Mr. Evanier’s blog.

THR: Frank Darabont Was FIRED!

Posted on by

The Hollywood Reporter is saying that Frank Darabont was fired from The Walking Dead! Here are some tidbits from the article:

  • When Frank Darabont appeared on a Comic-Con panel July 22 to promote The Walking Dead, he didn’t realize he was a dead man walking. Neither did the cast and crew.
  • One insider says those gathered were stunned at “the duplicity of AMC” for having used Darabont to promote the show at Comic-Con before firing him.
  • But this source says that AMC had its own ideas about how to make the show more cheaply. The show shoots for eight days per episode, and the network suggested that half should be indoors. “Four days inside and four days out? That’s not Walking Dead,” says this insider. “This is not a show that takes place around the dinner table.” That was just one of what this person describes as “silly notes” from AMC. Couldn’t the audience hear the zombies sometimes and not see them, to save on makeup? The source says Darabont fought “a constant battle to keep the show big in scope and style.”

Dark Shadows Rises Again

Posted on by

No matter how many times you think you’ve killed a vampire, odds are he’ll be back when you least expect it.  Such is the case with Barnabas Collins [as well as the rest of the cast of Dark Shadows].  Then again, maybe the return of Barnabas should be expected now that filming is underway for a new Dark Shadows movie starring Johnny Depp and directed by Tim Burton.

The new Dark Shadows comic will be written by Stuart Manning with art by Aaron Campbell. Francesco Fraccavilla and Aaron Campbell will provide the cover art.
