I woke up this morning to find out that Marvel Entertainment had been bought by The Walt Disney Company for approximately $4 billion. I’ve been reading various news articles about what this could mean for Marvel and Disney and some analysts are saying that Pixar might be interested in making a movie with Marvel characters.

I highly doubt it given Pixar’s original story-telling history, but hey, I guess it could happen.

Timeline of time travel in popular TV shows and movies

Information Is Beautiful posted this rather confusing timeline of time travel in popular TV shows and movies. It was taken from the book The Visual Miscellaneum (Harper Collins) by David McCandless.

I find that this graphic is rather hard to read because of that stupid squiggly yellow year-line. This would have been much better if that line was just straight and everything else bounced around it. What the heck, right? That yellow squiggly line just screws everything over. This could have been so much more awesome. See the entire graphic here.

How do you figure out if somebody in a movie is a bad guy? Just look at their complexion, says Brett Erlich!

Just came across Concept Art World, a website dedicated solely to showcasing wonderful concept art from movies, video games, and pure imagination. The artwork there is absolutely wonderful and I’m still in the process of going through each artist name and seeing what sort of weird contraption or vehicle or body suit they are putting to their canvas.

I suggest you check out the site if you’ve got some time.

The Witching of Ben Wagner

I haven’t seen this movie in years, but I remember fondly watching it with my siblings (mostly my sisters) when I was younger. The movie’s full title is “The Witching of Ben Wagner”, but for as long as I could remember, I simply called it “Ben Wagner”. I have yet to find somebody else who knows of this film (except for my siblings of course), so for now, I’ll introduce you all to it via this YouTube playlist (whole playlist embedded below).

If you’re interested, the movie has been put on DVD and is for sale at FamilyTV (the company that originally released the film).
