A pretty good laugh, courtesy of SamuraiFrog:

Paris Hilton can’t find a record label willing to release her second album. Between that and Ann Coulter having her jaw wired shut, atheists appear to be losing the argument.

In an unrelated note, the Frog also mentions that remakes have been announced this week of more movies from the ’80s, specifically They Live, Romancing the Stone, and Arthur. While new versions of Romancing the Stone and Arthur sound like disasters waiting to happen, remaking They Live actually isn’t such a bad idea. I just watched this one last week for the first time in 20 years (good lord, how I hate saying things like that!), and I think it’s the exceedingly rare case I mentioned the other day of an idea that didn’t live up to its potential and deserves a second attempt. It had a great premise (an ordinary joe accidentally discovers there are aliens among us disguised as normal human beings, and that they’re controlling us with subliminal messages in our advertising and entertainment) and, if anything, the film’s social commentary probably applies even more now than it did back in 1988 (people are more obsessed than ever with mass media and self-destructive materialism), but holy crap was that movie a mess. All set-up, no pay-off, and a big disappointment coming from one of my favorite directors, John Carpenter. So, assuming that They Live Redux is more thoughtful than the original and not just an amped-up FX spectacle, this is one remake I might actually be interested in seeing…
