Fannish Items of Interest

There’s going to be another Ninja Turtles movie, with a tentative release date of 2011. Proof you’re now old? It’s their 25th anniversary.

NBC cut back on the number of episodes for season 4 of Heroes. This means that it goes from 25 episodes, down to 18-20.

In Doctor Who related news, I’ve been hearing that a certain villain from the older series has been cast. However, as these spoilers seem have tabloids as their sources, I won’t believe them until it actually happens. If anyone wants to read a potential spoiler (which is probably not true) you can go to this Io9 article.

Found via whedonesque: An interview with Felicia Day.

For those that use Geocities for hosting fanfic or anything else, it turns out they will be shutting down all accounts (both free and paid) at the end of 2009. Found out via various links on my friends list. I’ve never used Geocities, but I know some people might have.

By the way, does anyone on my friends list know how to download a movie from Youtube, and then piece it back together so they can watch it later without having to keep stopping to look for the next part? If anyone needs to know the movie, it’s Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night, and part 1 is here. Just curious, since I’ve never found it anywhere else. Or, if that's not possible, if anyone knows where I can find a torrent or download of it.

Looks like USA is showing Serenity today, for anyone out there that’s interested. It started at 1:30 PM CST.

RIP, Bea Arthur

I just heard this via CNN a moment ago. Bea Arthur, most famous as Maude (from Maude) and Dorothy from Golden Girls, has passed away today at the age of 86. The cause was cancer, but as of this moment the type of cancer hasn’t been mentioned. May she rest in peace.
