Cinco De Rein – Part 1

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

- So much for more X-Men Origins films… looks like it’s going to be more Wolverine films…

- Ha, ha, suck it Disney: “Jonas is Disney Channel’s lowest-rated live-action series premiere… since 2005’s Life with Derek”

- After all that hype, the new 49er’s uniforms are merely more of a throwback look for the team. I guess that’s not so bad – those old teams did win championships after all…

- Paula Abdul – the singer – is back with another attempt at a number one hit. I’m going to guess this one’s going to fall flat like that “new one” from ’07

Extra Slice – Video: NBC announced their 2009/2010 show pickups yesterday and the most promising seems to be Community, starring Joel McHale (from E!’s The Soup) and Chevy Chase)

- Coldplay is making going to their shows a little more enjoyable: Free CD’s of their live album LeftRightLeftRightLeft when you attend the show (or just go to their website) (thanks Jason for the heads up)

- Speaking of free music, Wilco is offering a free download of The Jolly Banker, a Woody Guthrie song, and asking for donations to his charity
