Jimmy Fallon Taking Over For Conan O’Brien: So What Do You Think?

Here's the news, in case you didn't hear about it, like 4 years ago.

Leno leaves next year. Conan will take his place. Jimmy Fallon will take Conan's place. I theorize at some point after this Letterman will quit. Late night is going to get weird. People are going to be competing with the Daily Show & Colbert, they're also going to try to "keep up the late night dynasty". Late night is gonna get weird, damnit. I'm just scared for Conan. So my personal thoughts to Conan? If you're gonna get canceled: GO NUTS. Walk out on stage, take a shit, punch a camera, and then scream for 45 mins while running around in the audience. YOU WILL MELT MINDS.

The Other Side of the Wind

From wikipedia:

The Other Side of the Wind is an unreleased 1972 film directed by Orson Welles and starring John Huston, Peter Bogdanovich, Dennis Hopper and Stéphane Audran. The film featured Huston as an aging arthouse director with a string of commercial flops, who seeks to make one more film laden with sex and violence to revive his flagging career.

Like many of Welles' personally-funded films, the project was filmed and re-edited on and off for several years - work on the script started in the late 1960s, in 1972 Welles said that filming was "96% complete", and by 1976 it was on the brink of completion. Serious financial problems dogged the project, and Welles's use of funds from the brother-in-law of the Shah of Iran came back to haunt him after the Shah was overthrown in 1979. A complex, decades-long legal battle over the ownership of the film ensued, with the original negative remaining in a vault in Paris. By 1998 all legal matters had been resolved and the Showtime cable network had guaranteed end money to complete the film, when a new lawsuit by Welles' daughter Beatrice was filed, causing Showtime to withdraw its funding. As of late 2007, an new agreement had been reached with Showtime, and editing of the film was currently in progress.


So, a lost Welles film is on par with say, a lost Shakespeare script. Check out a leaked clip of the soon-to-be restored film.

Uma sez:

“Right now he’s putting the two films together with an intermission with an added anime sequence he had already written,” said Thurman. “So additional stories are in there, in animation.” She adds, “his anime stuff is strong.”

20th Century Fox Blew It. Sigourney Weaver Wanted New Alien Movie From Ridley Scott Pre-AVP

The last time [Ridley and I] saw each other we talked about it. The character is still interesting [and] I’d love to work with Ridley again,” Weaver said. “But Fox has effectively killed it because of ‘Alien vs. Predator.’ What else can you do with the creature? You can take the situation, you can go back to where they came from. …To play someone who ages a couple hundred years was fascinating. [But] let [Ripley] rest.


I WEEP.
