I Think This Line Is Mostly Filler
Because We All Get Bored Sometimes
Hellboy II: The Golden Army Trailer
At first the trailer seems to imply that this movie will lack the wonderfully sly sense of humor that helped to make the first so great, but you get a taste of that by the end, for sure. The obviously increased budget and clout from Mr. Del Toro show in every frame here as well; the movie will be gorgeous, without a doubt.

Think Like a Dinosaur
Jumper is starting to look promising in spite of itself. Though as Adult Swim noted, with Hayden Christensen and Samuel L. Jackson facing off, it could be seen as a grudge match sorta movie.
Considering how Mace Windu died like a bitch in Ep III, I think that's only fair.
Oh yeah, the link. Here's an article on a discussion about teleportation and Jumper, held at MIT with people from the movie. Enjoy, or not.

PS: The title refers to a sci-fi classic story about, amongst other things, teleportation. I don't expect Jumper to be nearly so philosophical though.

Interesting Manga List
Some things I'm thinking about starting up.
After School Nightmare
Psychodrama with gruesome horror. Could be interesting.
Gyo
Fish with legs rise and attack Japan. Sounds like Innsmouth started a colony.
Totoro Statue Menaces Bus Stop
A guy in Japan put a statue of Totoro, the famed... whatever it is... from the equally famed children's movie, and tried to recreate a memorable scene by placing it at a bus stop, presumably to amuse the kids.
Or terrify them. Either way.

There. Is. No. God.
There will be a shojo X-Men manga series.
Just shoot me now. Please.
The first, X-Men, was described as a shōjo title — "X-Men meets Fruits Basket or Ouran High School Host Club" according to one panelist — features Xavier's Institute for Higher Learning as an all-boys' school, with the only female student being Kitty Pryde. The work will be aimed at a manga audience; while the characters will be based on famous X-Men heroes, the manga will not require any prior knowledge of the original X-Men comics. The manga is scripted by Raina Telgemeier and Dave Roman, with art by Indonesia-based artist Anzu.
What's next, a Harlequin novel? Isn't the 30 Days of Night franchise enough punishment inflicted on us by the comic industry?
