root of all evil : WGA

Update: Netflix|WGA|TV|RIP

I've just watched 2 more movies that I still need to review ("War" and "Lucky You") but first WGA.

Looks like because of the Directors Guild Association's (DGA) recent pending deal with AMPTP (you know, that group that's against WGA), WGA (that's the writers guild) is thinking about taking up talks again. Rumor has it, this week they could be getting back to talks (Reportedly today they would but no word yet on if they did or didn't).

Speaking of WGA, I just finished watching Cane, a CBS series thats a little old but pretty good drama. Has enough "family mafia" flare to it to peek my interest. It's well worth watching the thirteen episodes.

And speaking of TV shows (you liking my transitioning skillzz0rz?), I just got hooked into the new Terminator series. Whoa. Gotta give props to the writer. And I love the Serenity/Firefly hottie. And if you don't know who I'm talking about, shame on you. I take your geek card away.

No really. Shame on you.

If you are one of those few who have never seen both movie/tv shows, then the only way to get back into my good graces (and earn back your geek card) is to bribe me with a new shirt.You gotta admit, that is aw3som3.

On a serious note, I'd like everyone to send their prayers to the family of Heath Ledger. May you Rest In Peace.

Until I get less serious,
