Ohhhh, Lindsay Lohan. There is so much we can say about this hot mess of a chick but really, is there enough time to express it all? Not in this lifetime.

Disney and Real Housewives. Last night, two Orange County symbols collided in a hilarious Saturday Night Live sketch staring host Lindsay Lohan as Rapunzel and Kristen Wiig as a boozed-up Cinderella. Warning: Watching it may ruin your childhood forever.

We're still not sure about Playground Festival. While its lineup has a strong hip-hop component (Game, Lil Jon and Big Sean), the rock bands on the bill are comprised of acts that were big in 2008 (Bravery, Panic! at the Disco and Shiny Toy Guns). It seems totally overreaching that they're callin ... More >>

Sesame StreetIt had to happen sooner or later: the inevitable Boob Backlash.After the skirmishes and scuffles of the summer, the innocent bystanders of the Boob Wars have risen up, and they've set their sights on their first targets: Katy Perry on Sesame Street.
When it's not LOL-funny, Robert Rodriguez's film is downright dull
HootersAll too often, Boob Wars coverage talks too much about the big names and front-line combatants and not enough about the civilians and little people affected by the constant bombardment of cleavage and cup size. Thankfully, the national scientific community hasn't forgotten about these ... More >>

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 SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES Spiderwick, Spiderwick, does whatever a Spiderwick does... “And what exactly might that be?” I hear you inquire. In short: Entertain.

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 Ai ... More >>
