http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/22/24821/ Chances are you weren't familiar with the name Eugene Polley when the newscaster announced his death over this morning's coffee. Without his invention, chances are Americans would have been forced to take in a little more exercise as they …
Kevin Smith Is an Evil Wizard
Your first hint is that his hockey jersey looks much more like a wizard's robe than an actual hockey jersey. Your second hint is body language. Sure, it sounds like he's talking about his upcoming movie-chat show Spoilers, but let's …

Your Mother Was Right...
...when she told you, "Handsome is as handsome does." Seriously, it does not pay to be blandly handsome, even in a chiseled sort of amazing way. Just ask Garrett Hedlund and Taylor Kitsch... http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/21/24718/ http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/21/24719/ http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/21/24720/ http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/21/24721/ http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/21/24722/ http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/21/24723/ Meanwhile, …

A Blade Runner Sequel?
Harrison Ford is what, 85 now? Cue the obvious joke... http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/18/24637/ p.s. Yes, I do think I should get extra gag points for using crazy-Catwoman Sean Young...
While We're At It
Fun with the poster for Prometheus... Something about the way Robot Fassbender is standing just seemed to cry out for this. http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/18/24625/
Piling On
Well, when Scott Marks takes time to sling some arrows at Katy Perry, it's hard not to get in on the outrageous fortune. Especially when she makes it so easy... http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/18/24623/ from "Piercing" by Katy Hudson ** from "E.T." by …

Is Battleship A Massive Meditation on Military Gay Marriage?
At first glance, I would have to say no. But then I saw this picture over at MovieFanatic.com, and read the caption... http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/17/24579/ "Taylor Kitsch stars in Battleship. The actor is featured as a Navy man seeking Liam Neeson's Admiral's …
