Life Happens
Yes, it's been a while, I know. I've gotten caught up in the holidays, fall TV programming and movies, work's kept me busy, etc. All just lame excuses for not keeping up on the blog. And, even now, I'll probably make this short.
Box office reports for the holiday season have been disappointing. Only 'Harry Potter' has proven to be a success. Disney's 'Tangled' has only done "okay" while Narnia 3 has been a domestic disaster (though it's doing well overseas). 'Tron: Legacy' is off to a good start but we'll wait and see how it goes.
Very disappointed to hear that 'Stargate Universe' has not been picked up for a third season. The remaining 10 episodes will air, as planned, this spring but since they were filmed prior to cancellation, the second season will probably end with a cliff-hanger. I can only hope that they will give the fans a follow-up TV movie to wrap it up later. The 2011/2012 season will be the first in 14 years without a 'Stargate' show on the air.
A smattering of books and music has been released, just in time for the holiday gift-giving season, as usual. Nothing outstanding here. The only big news was iTunes getting The Beatles catalog, and depending on who you ask, it wasn't all that significant. I, however, can appreciate the legal navigation that had to take place to make it happen. Now if someone could just talk some sense into Angus Young and AC/DC...
Well, Happy Holidays and all that kind of stuff. If I don't catch up with everyone over the next couple of weeks, I'll see you in the New Year.
