Is a Smurf movie coming? According to Ugo, they grabbed a shot of a CG rendered Smurf. I wonder if this is a capture of a movie still. There have been rumors floating around for a bit, so I wonder if there is any truth to it. What do you think? Would you want a Smurf movie?
History Channel's Life After People shows what would happen if people would no longer inhabit the Earth. It starts from the first second to almost 10,000 years later. I was lucky enough to have caught this series when it first started, and I was hooked.
It has the History Channel's way of showing through reenactment and special effects how the Earth would slowly change after people. They combine that with experts discussing their theories of how the Earth would change. These changes includes animal behavior, infrastructure deterioration, and environmental changes.
The new season begins in January, and I am excited to see what new developments have been made in this wonderful series. History Channel is definitely one of my favorite channels to flip through. The series that come out are never anything short of amazing. Life After People is another series that they can add to their list.
The online site has videos, photos, and games that relate to the show. Of course, the TV schedule.
If you are able to check out this series, definitely do it. You won't be disappointed.

I came across "Alma." It's a new short animated film by Rodrigo Blaas, a director from Spain. This is so cute. She kind of resembles a Precious Moment caricature. The story is macabre, which I like. Definitely check it out. It's only five minutes long and worth every moment.
I remember when I first saw Jennifer Jones in the "The Song of Bernadette." I was mesmerized. She had this beautiful quality about her that left me wanting to see more of her. After that, I watched any film that she was in, including:
The Towering Inferno
A Farewell to Arms
The Barretts of Wimpole Street
Stazione Termini
Carrie
Madame Bovary
Portrait of Jennie
Whether she was playing a cheating wife (Madame Bovary and Stazione Termini) or a girl who ages with considerable speed (Portrait of Jennie), Jennifer Jones held her own. In Carrie, she played with one of greatest actors ever Laurence Olivier, and he didn't upstage her. This is Olivier who could play any role with such precision and it was usually hard for anyone to keep up with him. She did.
I read "Madame Bovary" before watching her performance. When I saw her in the role, I knew she was born to play it. Actresses like Jennifer Jones are far and between nowadays. You should rent some of her movies and watch them with a loved one. She was a breathtaking beauty who could also act.
Rest in Peace Jennifer Jones.
I love all the Disney princesses. My favorite is Ariel. I just loved how free spirited she was. Who is your favorite Disney princess?
Sigourney Weaver, with a chuckle, says she will never grow tired of space travel. “I’m always up for going to another planet,” the three-time Oscar nominee said. “Outer space has been good to me.”
This is the 30th anniversary of Weaver’s career breakthrough with her role as Ellen Ripley in the first “Alien” film. But far from resting on her laurels, the 60-year-old actress is again on extraterrestrial active duty with “Avatar,” the James Cameron sci-fi epic that opens Dec. 18.
With four “Alien” films, two hit “Ghostbusters” movies and her work in the ingenious spoof film “Galaxy Quest,” Weaver came into “Avatar” as royalty among the Comic-Con crowd that now hold so much sway over Hollywood. It was no coincidence that the makers of the film “Wall-E” got Weaver to voice the computer aboard the Axiom starship – she’s been the voice in the ear of fanboys for three decades.
Sigourney Weaver is totally the queen of Sci-fi. I remember when I first saw her in "Alien." She started off as a scared crewmember, who finally blew the damn alien out into space. Then, you saw her battling a bunch of aliens in "Aliens," and saying one of the best lines ever.
"Get away from her YOU bitch!"
After that, you saw her winning over more and more aliens. It wasn't the last time she was going to grace the screen. She was in "Ghostbusters" and "Ghostbusters II." Even with Richard Murray opposite her, Weaver still held her own.
Years later, she would star in "Galaxy Quest," which was a suprising hit for me. I didn't think I would like it, but then it quickly became one of my favorite Sci-fi comedies ever.
Now, she is in James Cameron "Avatar." I am not sure about this movie because it can go either way, but all I know is that even if it does, Sigourney Weaver will still be the queen of Sci-fi in my eyes.
