That’s right! Today is the day that I unleash the full magnitude of my geekiness upon the internet! Because…

I’ve started a blog devoted entirely to Smallville! Feast your brains on THIS:


In honor of the 10th and final season, I am no longer able to restrain myself from blogging CONSTANTLY about this show. However,  I don’t want to subject loyal DIH readers to the incessant posts, so instead, I shall only subject you to incessant LINKS to those posts on my new blog!

I’ve already copied my DIH Smallville posts onto Watchtower and I’m going to post tons of new stuff there all the time. So give a sister a hand and check out my welcome post. And if you’re curious about the title, go here.

Holla! Tonight’s the night, my friends! The Season 9 finale for Smallville! This has been a solid season (okay, the Kandorians plot is hella boring. But it’s almost over! Rao willing.) and I’m psyched for what’s sure to be a stellar finale. How do I know?  Because it’s Smallville, suckas! EVERY finale is awesome. EVERY ONE. Even the crappy seasons! All the finales rule except, conversely, Season 8’s, which was in every other respect Smallville’s best season. That was…weird.

But! Season 9! Finale! Sure to be awesome! Here’s some scoop to wet your whistle. Continue reading

Extra! Extra! I saw the face-melting Tron Legacy trailer in IMAX 3D!

 And you can too, if you watch Alice in Wonderland! Or you can just watch it on your computer screen and only melt your face a little bit. (read my Alice review here.) 

 

Meredith over at io9 broke down the trailer and analyzed each still for us. Do you guys think if I stole her identity, she’d notice? 

 

And she’s got the brand new Iron Man 2 trailer here. May 7th! May 7th!  Continue reading

Smallville Renewed!

YAY!!! I knew it was just a matter of time considering the stellar Friday night ratings, but I find myself so excited about this news!!

I do hope (and believe) the 10th season will be the final one, as Clark is so close to completing his journey into becoming Superman. And anyway, ten is a lovely, round number, don’t you think?

I have long cherished a dream image of Tom Welling in the series finale, come May 2011, standing on a building in his iconic red cape, staring impassively into the distance, and then shooting off into the sky…roll credits.

Make it so, CW. Make it so.

Extra! Extra! Only Amy Heckerling has the power to make vampires awesome again!

 Star Krysten Ritter reveals that Amy Heckerling’s next film will be a “Clueless for vampires,” a premise which seems capable of single-handedly reviving the dwindling empire of sparkle moodiness. 

 

The Superman reboot will be written by Batman Begins and Blade screenwriter David Goyer. This is good news! The remake will not star Brandon Routh and Kate Bosworth and it will not be directed by Bryan Singer. This is also good news! 

 

Check out a Q&A with Tron Legacy director Joseph Kosinski here. And surprise surprise, Disney’s already talking trilogyContinue reading
