Elementry

Season 1 Episode 1 ** Tomorrow night the premier episode for CBS' new series Elementary airs, but the trailers have already garnered a fair amount of criticism. The biggest thing against the show is the character names. I haven't seen one criticism for the fact that we don't need another detective / crime-drama series. I haven't seen much made about the story or script, other than places where this series is Sherlock Holmes and Watson . We already have two versions of this in popular media, the Robert Downey Jr. film franchise and the Steven Moffat produced / Benedict Cumberbatch lead miniseries on BBC. Both are true enough to Sir Conan Doyle’ s original version that a divergent version, coming to modern day New York and replacing Watson with a female, is unwanted by the biggest fans.

A Town Called Mercy

Fantastic to see Ben B...

Alternative culture icon Emily the Strange is headed to the big screen, with Dark Horse Entertainment president Mike Richardson coming on board to produce a feature film that would tell the origin of the Gothic figure and her cats. Richardson's connection to Emily comes from the comic book line Dark Horse publishes. The company began publishing the title in 2005, with Emily the Strange #1: Chairman of the Bored , which was followed by several other popular miniseries. Skateboarder Rob Reger created the character among a multitude of designs he was printing up for stickers, T-shirts and skateboards in Santa Cruz in the early 1990s. The Emily design took off, with Reger's company, Cosmic Debris , going on to become a multimillion dollar business with toeholds in fashion, books and comics, toys, school supplies, and accessories. The character, often seen with four cats, has also become a figure for female empowerment and anti-conformity. Reger has remained the creative direc...
