• Convention of horrors

  I should have known better. Years of Comic-con attendance have taught me that geek-convention faux pas 101 is to show up late and somehow expect you'll be able to get inside quickly. True, I had overslept, and the fact that the FANGORIA WEEKEND OF HORRORS convention was being held at the "Burbank Airport Marriott Hilton" was confusing—do I look for a Hilton or Marriott logo? And once the place was found, the Scottish parking-lot attendant had bad news. "Yu guys haf teken oop all the space

• Lalita Opening at Fury

  Last night was the opening of Lalita, a new Monday club at Fury, and Leslie (Le Receptionist) came along with me to provide her brilliant photography skills. This was my first time going to Fury, and weekday night clubs are always questionable in terms of awesomeness. Sometimes they absolutely go off, like Call Sick, and sometimes they sink (I won’t name anybody). Really, it’s either hit or miss. “So, what kind of music?” Leslie asked me. I have no idea. “What’s the crowd like?”

• Comic-Con 2007: Breakfast, Hold the Bacon

  Bed at 2 a.m. last night. Up at 7 this morning for a breakfast in honor of the upcoming movie Death Sentence, based on a novel by the author of Death Wish, and directed by James Wan (the original Saw). Unsurprisingly, the movie looks exactly like what you'd expect from the director of Saw doing a Death Wish-type movie. Which is good news, though some will cry about the violence. Lots of crazy shotgun blasts in the footage shown. Like, LOTS. The tagline could be "Oh yes. There will be shotgun bl

• Friday's Headlines. No Surprises: March of the day laborers

• LYT's Film Pick of the Weekend 2-15-08

  THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES Spiderwick, Spiderwick, does whatever a Spiderwick does... “And what exactly might that be?” I hear you inquire. In short: Entertain. THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES, aside from its blatant CG, is a charming throwback to all those Spielberg-produced kid movies of the '80s. Its kids feel real, there's danger but not too much. And just enough sentiment to make you feel, but not so much you'll feel manipulated. Most impressive of all, perhaps, is that it features Martin

• What do Lindsay Lohan and Hugh Hewitt Have in Common?

  Although we're no fans of local talk show host Hugh Hewitt, we couldn't help but to feel a twinge of sympathy for the man, who's also a professor of law at Chapman University. The latest edition of the school's Chapman Magaine has a mini-profile on Hewie, whom you can listen to every weekday at 3pm on KRLA-AM 870. In the story, Hugh tells the magazine that the reason his show succeeds is because he respects his audience. "It doesn't have to be about celebrity or salaciousness," Hewitt states, an

• Looking Back at 2008: The Celeb-Reality Edition

  It was Oliver Wendell Holmes who opined that a new truth is better than an old celebrity-tinged news item, or at least he would have opined that had he lived in our celeb-obsessed times. So it is in that spirit these 15 Orange County brushes with famous folks in '08 are unveiled.   1) Newport Beach city officials revealed in January they were trying to acquire the statue of their adopted Favorite Son, John Wayne, that moseys in front of the Larry Flynt building in Los Angeles. Back when
