Links For 8-20-2008

More on the Fox vs WB situation over WATCHMEN: Fox Closer To Destroying Watchmen. Fox wants to stop the movie from ever coming out at all?!?

Get your own STAR TREK captain's chair. I just found my new computer and/or TV watching chair. Get to buying some stuff on Amazon so I can afford this!

Why you should turn Gmail's SSL feature on now. I have my Gmail bookmark set to https, but I was using an unpatched version of the notifier. I was happy to see they finally released a patch for the notifier to make it do SSL.

RIAA finally pays $107,951 to wrongfully accused file-sharer. You know if they were the ones on the receiving end of payment and the other party dragged their feet like the RIAA did on this, they would've had that person back in court so fast that the Earth would've spun backwards.

MPAA waffling on piracy costs; RIAA says illicit cds worth $13.74 each. Well, that's slightly more reasonable than the hundreds to thousands of dollars per song they used to claim.

Entertainment industry again says everyone else must protect its business model. These stories are starting to become like living near a waterfall, tons of noise that you don't notice as much the longer you live with it.

Grindhouse of the Dead: Sega Reinvents Classic Shooter on Wii. A fun little grindhouse-style trailer for the Wii HOD game.

Get ready for Jesse's Court (Ventura, not Jackson). Now that's a court show I might watch. They should try to get Mean Gene Oakerlund to interview the plaintiffs and defendants. I was going to suggest Big Boss Man for the bailiff, but he's dead.

They're here...POLTERGEIST grabs BOOGEYMAN writers. They shouldn't remake POLTERGEIST. That aside, I wonder if the POLTERGEIST curse will afflict the remakes as well?

Tom Cruise and Sam Raimi wake up to Ed Brubaker's SLEEPER. I just don't see Cruise as Holden Carver. Maybe Tao though...?

Latest RESIDENT EVIL 5 trailer terrorizes Leipzig. I'm really really looking forward to this game.
