Hollywood’s Book Grinder, with an ending for James Cameron
I’m worried about you.
You know why? Because a lot of you think that AVATAR should have won the Oscar for Best Screenplay.
EXPO Webcomic #21 – Reality Check
Bring Back Past Oscar Recipients Three 6 Mafia!!!
After attending the Oscars, the burning question in my mind is:
When are they going to have past Oscar recipients present for Best Film Song?!
Mission: IMPOSSIBLE
I’m Worried About Katie, Holmes.
Tiptoeing quickly and quietly in the early morning mist, actress Katie Holmes attempted another escape from the clutches of the Cruise compound.
Vic Mancuso’s OSCAR PICKS 2010!
Sunday is Oscar night. Unfortunately, my invite was lost in the mail, but I’ve decided to go out there anyway for the after parties! According to Google Maps it will take me 1 day 22 hours to drive from Jersey to Hollywood, so I gotta leave within the next 15 mins if I’m gonna make it…
Captain’s Blog – Stardate 201003.05 – Bloom Box Energon Cubes, iPhone App Witch Hunt, & Mario’s Tech Tips
A scientist from Bloom Energy unveiled an energy cube the size of his forehead that can power a U.S. home. Much like the Energon cubes that Transformer “Soundwave” created, I think this guy’s invention is pure fiction…

The Nine Lives of Mario Lopez
The Chaser’s first hot-on for Mario was in 1998, when he appeared on a cable tv show about California cops on bikes.
Sure, the show was stupid, but The Chaser was fourteen at the time, and had a liking for the hot and spicy back then.
EXPO Webcomic #19 – ¡Mirelo!
Action Comics #1 vs. Detective Comics #27
Who would win in a fight, Superman or Batman?
Fresh from his conflict with the Incredible Hulk, this time around the Man of Steel keeps it in the DC Comics family by going up against the Dark Knight Detective; not in a contest of strength, or a battle of wills, but for the COLLECTIBLE comic-book crown.
#6? = $
Word on the street is LeBron is leaving #23 behind. He’s taking #6 out of respect for MJ, because, there’s only one MJ. That strikes me as a little bit odd. By the standards of modern basketball, the same ones that easily forget about legends like Bill Russell, Pistol Pete and even Larry Bird (memories [...]
What grade level R U writing @?
One of the things Americans have accomplished
thus far in the twenty-first century
is identifying their capacity for mental laziness.
THE WIZARD’S WORLD OF FANTASY FOOTBALL: TOP 15 RUNNING BACKS FOR 2010
Chad Tate here and I can’t get me enough Fantasy Football. When one season ends, I’m already scheming on picks and trades to get the collective pot of money from my boys. I still play in a keeper league with my frat bros from college. When we started in the days at the U, fifty [...]

Enough with the Hypocrisy, Don’t YOU Have a Job to Do, Too?
Editor’s Note: This blog entry is a response to “Enough with the Profiling, Don’t You Have a Job to Do?” by Jamal Turner. Devin Cho’s gossip will return next week. Unless this is his last week.
Vic Enlists in “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” on DVD!
It wasn’t until last week that I finally got to see the movie. My little cousin Tony brought a copy over and we watched it.
Man, what a kickass movie it was! I was expecting a kid’s movie, but what I got was the best war movie since Delta Force 2.

Gary Coleman’s INSIDERage
They bitch-slapped you, dude.
Lara Spencer and her crew of played out, permed up, tacky asses shamed you on national television…

Help! My Boss is Rocking Counterfeit Purses!
Dear Fatima:
I work as an assistant to an editor of a stylish monthly magazine. I love my job but whenever I accompany my boss to a photo op, be it a premiere, gallery event, etc., I am horrified to see that she is rocking counterfeit purses!
Super-Heroes vs. Zombies
Comic-book sales these days are very low when compared to comics’ Golden Age, or Silver & Bronze Ages, or especially the “speculative investment years” of the Iron Pyrite Age. When asked about this at non-comics industry gatherings, I usually pointed to the overwhelming majority of comics featuring super-heroes as one of the main reasons [...]
Live from the 2010 Winter Olympics
Chad Tate here, reporting live (even if it’s after recovery from my hangover), from the Winter Olympics.
First, I just want to thank Jamal and the EXPO team for allowing me this opportunity to cover this historic event – all expenses paid AND the freedom and flexibility to choose my angle to write about. Still don’t [...]
Black History (is more than a) Month
My mother’s name was SHONDRA PARKS. I call her Professor Mom.
She was born in the city of Philadelphia…
…and I was the pride, joy, and holy terror of her life.

Enough With the Profiling, Don’t You Have a Job To Do?
Ever notice when you flip through one of your favorite monthly or quarterly magazines, that there are pages of pictures showing the editor-in-chief all hugged up with a celebrity like they were at a family reunion??

Absolutely Fabulous
Katt Burglar?
Katt Williams was arrested for burglarizing a suburban Atlanta home. What’s going on here, Katt? I thought you were “allergic to stupid shit.” You don’t see Alonzo “Hamburger” Jones getting three years’ probation for misdemeanor carrying a concealed firearm in 2006, or narrowly avoiding more weapons charges…
Vic Shuts Down “Shutter Island”
SCORSESSI WEAVES A CONFUSING BLANKET OF UPS AND DOWNS THAT LEFT ME WONDERING WHAT WAS REAL AND WHAT WAS JUST IMAGINATION. I’M ALL FOR A GOOD MYSTERY, BUT THE ONLY MYSTERY HERE IS HOW THIS MOVIE WAS GREENLIT…
Captain’s Blog – Stardate 201002.19 – iPad Sucks (Power)
After being on staff for six months, it’s become apparent to me that the people I work with aren’t the most tech-savvy bunch. Without GPS, half of them couldn’t find their way to the office…

Poles and Holes
I used to want to sleep with Tiger Woods.
Why the hell not? He met all of The Chaser’s criteria.
Exceptional skill, money, golden skin, abs, aim, drive…love how those Nike shirts just accentuated his form.
Married? No problem.
All men cheat, so I could live with that.
Mistress? No problem.
All men cheat, so that’s expected.
Mistresses? All coming out of [...]

Comic-Book Fans vs. Comic-Book Movies
Comic-book purists will be the first to tell you when a movie based on a given comic-book title sucks.
Often, they will tell you this before the film has been COMPLETED, let alone released.
They can do this not because they are a kind of psychic Siskel or ESP-bert, but because of one, simple, and irrefutable [...]
WHY I DON’T HAVE A TWITTER ACCOUNT
Many of you have asked for my Twitter address so you can connect up, and while I appreciate the fact that you want to reach out, the simple fact of the matter is…
I don’t have time to “tweet”.
Yes, you read right.
“It only takes 140 characters of your time, girl.”
That’s what my friend Jackie said to [...]

Performance Issues
Today’s rappers seem to have zero idea of how to command a stage.
It’s as if they’re just happy to be ON stage and mistakenly believe that the magic will happen all by itself…
