(Private): What sorry son-of-a-bitch is in charge of this operation?

(Bradley): I don't know, but they ought to hang him!

Karl Malden checks out.

97, wow. He falls under the "I had no idea he was still alive" category. RIP.

A collection of reprinted interviews, essays and articles from throughout his career on a variety of topics (Dune, UFOs, the environment, the craft of writing, etc.) selected by Frank himself just before his death.

Too bad it isn't in print any longer, but many of the articles (current topics in the 1950s and 1960s) are terribly dated now.

"The jungle planet of Haruun Kal, the homeworld Mace barely remembers, has become a battleground in the increasing hostilities between the Republic and the renegade Separatist movement. The Jedi Council has sent Depa Billaba—Mace’s former Padawan and fellow Council member—to Haruun Kal to train the local tribesmen as a guerilla resistance force, to fight against the Separatists who control the planet and its strategic star system with their droid armies.

But now the Separatists have pulled back, and Depa has not returned. The only clue to her disappearance is a cryptic recording left at the scene of a brutal massacre: a recording that hints of madness and murder, and the darkness in the jungle . . . a recording in Depa’s own voice.

Mace Windu trained her. Only he can find her. Only he can learn what has changed her. Only he can stop her."


It's basically (and consciously) Heart of Darkness/Apocalypse Now set in a Star Wars milieu, with Depa Billaba playing the Colonel Kurtz role.

OK, pencils down, I think we have a winner:

"LaBoeuf projects a pathetic, wall-eyed dorkhood, when he's not babbling like a tumor removed from Woody Allen's prostate that somehow achieved sentience."

There is not a single line in that review that is not awesome.

Michael has kicked it, at least according to TMZ.

Now that's one I honestly didn't see coming.

Not a good week. :-\

Wow, I feel uncharacteristically "with it" insofar as I've already seen 4 of those top 10 (or 5 of the 12). Yay me.

Click Monica Bellucci for all 41. Technically there's no nudity, but it's borderline enough that I'd be cautious where you open it. (Although in that case you probably shouldn't be reading this thread anyway, but whatev...)
