Harry Potter is to get his kit off not once but twice in the next film – is he feeling the pressure from the Twilight hunks? If you had to pick one fault in the Harry Potter films, it would probably be their lack of sexual content. Sure, it's nice to see Harry and his chums lark about with Hagrid's pet hippogriff and all, but it goes without saying that the films would be much more popular...

I'm very confused this morning -- I wake up to find out that J Street, the pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-Palestine, anti-sanctions organization, is now supporting the sanctions legislation making its way through the House. The White House recently asked that that sanctions bill, sponsored by Rep. Howard Berman, chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, be on Obama's desk by the end of they year,...

I'd seen enough episodes of "The Twilight Zone" as a kid to get the gist of it - bite-sized morality tales that always came with a twist and often gave me the willies. However, I hadn't caught up with 1983's Twilight Zone: The Movie until just last night. Now, I was looking for pictures to go along with my reaction when it became apparent that our own Eric D....

In Confessions of a Twilight Addict, English teacher Jennifer Morrison compares the popular teen vampire series to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Like an 18th century novel of manners, Twilight criticizes social assumptions and regimented ideas of appropriate behavior. In an interesting twist, whereas Austen’s heroines single-mindedly protect their reputations and seek...

Really. We are. I was on twitter during the President's speech and my lefty twitter friends are so upset at Obama. The "F" word is everywhere. On the right I see support, suspicion, and relief. The arguments I am hearing...

... Like I said before, he sees the big picture that we don't have access to. We have come into the twilight zone of politics though. Here are some statements by other leaders. The liberals are not happy. Republicans like Orrin Hatch say it isn't enough, and John McCain thinks the decision is just right. Obama is practically Goldilocks here. As Andrew Ferguson points out in the Weekly...

In retrospect, an album about broken hearts, insomnia, alienation, night terrors and cold sweats was never going to be the year's biggest seller - but Kid Cudi's debut is well worth checking out. The Ohian rapper is a keen wordsmith, and his woozy backing tracks hover giddily in that twilight zone between wake and sleep. His new single, Pursuit Of Happiness, features shape-shifting psychedelia...

... musician is Thao Nguyen... as in Thao with the Get Down Stay Down? Both prove that we're in the Twilight Zone, I know. But you tell me which is more bizarre: A) Solange covering Dirty Projectors. B) Dianna Agron name-checking Thao Nguyen. C) I can't wait for your opinion. Seriously. [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]

They apparently had a spare jumbo jet that they didn't know what to do with, so they turned it into a restaurant, at least for a time. Today, it's more-or-less abandoned. Too bad....the restaurant idea is actually pretty cool. For 'Twilight Zone' style amusement, the waiters could dress up as demons and pull metal from the wings as you eat, watch, point and laugh!

... course, meant yet another forgettable Golden Earring song, this time the even more useless "Twilight Zone" ("when the bullet hits the bone....AHHHHHHH....when the bullet hits the bone..."). I staved off waves of nausea and listened for a minute, trying to understand why this horrid song could ever be released, let alone why this song could rise to the number one...

... – a letter to the stars, an olive branch of peace to our celestial brethren, a tweet into the twilight zone. The fact of the matter is, this was one of the greatest PR stunts, I think, we have ever seen. This message was originally sent to mark the reopening of the world’s largest radio telescope in Puerto Rico and Messier 13 was picked as a destination as it was the only visible...

Sadly, The Box soon turns into an overblown episode of The Twilight Zone.
