Patton Oswalt has always been one of my favorite comedians. Career-wise, his appearances on Reno 9/11 have shown he’s not afraid to make fun of himself, while his starring role in Pixar’s Ratatouille made him the envy of film nerds everywhere. In his stand-up, I love the way he is able t...

Hopefully, Peter’s recent post about actors and directors using social networking/blogging site Twitter opened up a whole new world for of information for you. If you’re a Twitter user, you can now keep track of the latest Repo: The Genetic Opera developments, read frustratingly cryptic ...

Screenwriter David Hayter has been working on a big screen adaptation of Watchmen for almost a decade, which means he’s invested not only a lot of time on the project, but also a lot of energy. And like a lot of people in Hollywood, the fear of a one weekend payoff is scary. Hayter has written...

For the first time ever, GETV heads over to WonderCon and Irina’s fears of growing up without coming books and not knowing enough about super heroes were allayed. Attacked by a hot baby-dyke version of the Joker, she is saved by hot baby-dyke Batman and Robin! She also hears “these aren&...

If there's one thing I learned about feeding kids it's that you have to take the tape off their mouths or they spill all over themselves.
