		<description><![CDATA[While they still seem like a long ways off, Guillermo Del Toro is hard at work on a pair of films based on The Hobbit. They haven&#8217;t officially cast anyone for the films yet, though Ian McKellen is very clearly on board. But what about that other wizard, Saruman?
Del Toro and Peter Jackson have been [...]]]></description>

Author Tim Powers has confirmed that Disney optioned his novel On Stranger Tides and is planning to use elements from it for the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie.
I find this really interesting, because right after I saw the first Pirates movie I went looking for some ghostly pirate fiction to quench my newfound thirst [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
From an aesthetic and conceptual standpoint, I liked a lot of things about District 9. Director Neil Blomkamp has already proven to be a master of the use of adding special effects (such as aliens) to documentary-style footage to heighten their realism&#8211;the grainy, shaky camera work hides a multitude of CGI sins while anchoring the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s something that&#8217;s been bugging me lately.
One issue that concerns me is man-made climate change. I have my own thoughts on its existence, but I&#8217;m not here to debate that right now.
Rather, what I&#8217;m curious about is why, exactly, those who aren&#8217;t convinced man-made climate change is happening are so goddamned ginned up about it? [...]]]></description>

2.) Having a yard. On a nice day, my options are staying inside or going for a walk into downtown Brighton. Or driving somewhere nice. I&#8217;d love to be able just [...]]]></description>

Contrary to popular belief, hell is not a landscape of red rock with flames flickering here and there, nor is it other people.
