Week in Review: Why is Everybody Dying?

What a week for Death! The Grim Reaper hit Hollywood with a fervor taking out Ivan Dixon (“Hogan’s Heroes”), Anthony Minghella (English Patient), Arthur C. Clarke (author of “2001”) and Paul Scofield (A Man for All Seasons).

We also learned the Incredible Hulk may be on ‘roids [satire] and the uproar is ultimately overshadowed by the top ten movie badasses. Meanwhile, Disney hates on me for my Narnia rumor while talk of a Batman trilogy begins.

We got a look at the classic Disney homages in Enchanted, our first peek at Johnny Depp in his new movie, Hilary Duff lookin’ hot, the first pictures of Benicio Del Toro as the Wolf Man even though further news doesn’t look good for the film.

Fox is moving forward with a movie based on “The A-Team” as well as a new Street Fighter film and Paramount shows us what Snake Eyes looks like in the G.I. Joe movie.

Judd Apatow disowns Drillbit Taylor [satire] and he should because it sucks, “Jericho” gets cancelled again, new Friday the 13th film gets a star and the secret to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is revealed.

The NCAA tourney begins and I am still pulling for UNC and so should you. I now fucking hate Drake for screwing my brackets (yes plural, I filled out 14 of them)! I am just happy more people hate Greg Paulus.

Obama’s comment calling his grandmother a “typical white woman” is blown out of proportion and then his passport along with everyone else’s was breached (Chris Cooper is being questioned). Obama has no worries though, he just got Bill Richardson’s endorsement, but he shouldn’t expect one from DMX or John Edwards.

Starbucks owes employees $100 million, 81-year-old man kills himself with a robot he programmed and people get hurt watching “Oprah”. Oh, and a new “90210” is starting and the insignificant Tori Spelling wants in.

In the world of gossip, PageSix has died, Kristin Davis and Lindsay Lohan have sex tapes in common and Ashley Dupré won’t get her $1 million from “Girls Gone Wild” since she reportedly spent a week filming seven full-length tapes which included nudity and same-sex encounters.

The week was so bad in the political realm it is being referred to as “A Bad Week for Everyone“, but I promise you this woman had it the worse. Not a good sign. Why we even care is beyond me since ‘Clinton has virtually no chance of winning‘ especially now that hubby Bill is tied to Rev. Wright.
