fanficrants post is guaranteed to fill you with either horror or a strange amusement at how far Twilight has spread—Dracula does not sparkle.
A kid is keeping a lending library of banned books in his/her locker. Edit: Thanks go out tobrewsternorth for spotting that a few comments mention this is likely a hoax. Would have been fun if it were definitely true.
Disney is remaking Flight of the Navigator.
Apparently, Doctor Who is going to get an animated series, starring David Tennant, Georgia Moffett, and David Warner.
Found viawhedonesque (I’m linking to the whedonesque post, which links to that): Vertigo Entertainment is in talks to do a Buffy movie—it would be a reboot without Joss, SMG, Alyson Hannigan, Nicholas Brendan, or anyone else. From the sound of it, I doubt it will get very far. Another post about it can be found over at Io9.
Ghostbusters 3 news: One of Bill Murray’s conditions for returning was apparently that Winston have a larger role, to put him on equal footing with the others. It’s mentioned toward the end of the article.
People are now linking to their finished (or unfinished, in some cases) stories for the Finish-A-Thon, hosted atmultific. If anyone on my friends list missed mine, you can read A Beautiful, Pie-Filled Disaster here—or here at Teaspoon.
ETA: Can't believe I didn't think to link to this one. Over at Io9, they linked to a trailer made by a fan, to support the idea of Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern. I assumed it would be something that wasn't that well made, but wow. The person doing the trailer did a spectacular job with the CGI, even including what looked like scenes from Castle, Firefly, Superman Returns--and, possibly, Watchmen. You can watch it here at Io9--read the comments there, too.
