Ghost Rider Teaser by amit

The teaser trailer to Ghost Rider starring Nicholas Cage came out over at Apple Trailers today. No big news except that it’s a whopping 9 months before the movie is supposed to released. Is the movie studio is trying to drum up Snakes on a Plane-level hype? Who knows. Here’s some Ghost Rider trivia. Did you know there was live-action TV show? We didn’t either. But we found a few photos from the early 90’s series. Click below.

What’s On Hillary Clinton’s iPod? by amit

New York’s other senator and former First Lady, Hillary Clinton, told the AP she’s finally joined the 21st century after swinger husband, Bill Clinton, gave her an iPod as a birthday present. Scrolling through the iPod they found some quality tunes from Motown, the Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin’s “Respect,” and the Beatles’ “Hey Jude.” Seems fiting for the 58 year-old who’s “a child of the ’60s and ’70s.” She added, “I’ve got everything — a total smorgasbord.” Rumor has it Apple wants her to be in one of their famous ads, shaking her hips to the Black Eyed Peas’ “My Humps.”

“My hips, my hips, my hips..”

Albino Causing A Whine-o by amit

The LA Daily News claims moviegoers are beginning to bring the heat upon Ron Howard’s upcoming release, The Da Vinci Code, not because of its wild religious implications, but rather its negative portrayal of albinos. In the adaptation of Dan Brown’s highly successful book of the same name, non-albino Paul Bettany, plays Silas, an evil albino monk minion who beats himself and wears a barbed wire garter. The fact that yet another albino character comes off as the bad guy has Michael McGowan, the albino president of the National Organization for Albinism and Hypopigmentation (NOAH), turning red with anger. Sort of. He claims The Da Vinci Code is the 68th movie since 1960 to involve an “evil albino” and added,

“Silas is just the latest in a long string. The problem is there has been no balance. There are no realistic, sympathetic or heroic characters with albinism that you can find in movies or popular culture.”

Being 0.47% albino, I decided to search through the Internet Music Database (IMdB) to see if the ultra-Caucasian president of NOAH had any merit to his statement. Here’s what I found:

The bad guy in Cold Mountain, Bosie, an albino.

The evil/incestual twins in The Matrix Reloaded.

Whitey in Me, Myself, and Irene. Not really a bad guy, just a character with unbelievably bad vision.

Gandalf the White, a hero, wore contacts to hide his albinism in The Lord of the Rings.

Owen Wilson. The man has zero pigment but is all over pop culture.

There’s your proof. President Michael McGowan of NOAH, put up the white surrender flag and let the cause go. Then go see The Da Vinci Code which opens nationwide today.
