What's a motion comic? Some of you may already know without realizing it. Anyone that has DC's Watchman DVD comic owns a motion comic; and you know that the future of comics is 'motion comics'. For anyone that has not seen a motion comic. Imagine the vivid illustrations that are generally static and motionless panning or zooming for emphasis along with minor moving elements in the background or foreground from time-to-time.
Marvel has taken the initiative to offer a free episode of their motion comics in an effort to draw in subscribers.
Check out Spider Woman episode 1 complete with cameo from Spider-Man.
Ripped from the pages of "Secret Invasion" and "New Avengers," this explosive first episode follows the new adventures of Jessica Drew aka Spider-Woman as she rediscovers her life in a world she did not make. The Secret Invasion is over. Now comes the reckoning.
If that's not enough. Joss Whedon (Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog) has penned an episode which you can get a glimpse of in this trailer. And unlike some of the poor dialogue in the Spider Woman episode above, it has all the trappings of great Joss Whedon writing. It will be available October 28th.

GREATEST TOWN EVER
If you are traveling in Asia anytime soon, may I suggest stopping in the mountainous village Kunming, South China? It has a beautiful scenery.
The catch is, you have to be under 4 feet 3 inches to live there.
Yeah, you read that right.
This town was founded by little people fleeing from exploitation and discrimination. The townspeople are self sufficient, complete with a fire brigade and police force. Spokesman Fu Tien said, "As small people we are used to being pushed around and exploited by big people. But here there aren't any big people and everything we do is for us."
The townspeople have made their town into a tourist attraction by erecting mushroom houses and dressing like fairy tale creatures.
...And they thought this would avoid discrimination?
LC Lands Movie Deal
Lauren Conrad is riding her reality television fame all the way to the big screen. The "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills" star penned LA Candy, a novel released earlier this year. The book is still on the New York Times bestseller list after fourteen weeks (but so was sTORI Telling Tori's Spelling's book.. apparently NY Bestseller isn't that far out of reach for starlets). Conrad has sold the rights to the film to Temple Hill Entertainment, the production company responsible for the Twilight series.
The book is about Jane Roberts, a nineteen-year old girl who moves to Los Angeles, finds fame while starring in a reality show, and then deals with the subsequent repercussions of fame. Sound eerily familiar?
Conrad is poised to release two more books through her publishing company. If you don't want to purchase the books, just watch reruns of "The Hills"- the book is basically a written play by play of her everyday life.
ALERT THE MEDIA: JT Is Single Again!
Justin Timberlake finally ditched his less famous girlfriend Jessica Biel. The couple broke up last month and dated for three years.
Friends of Timberlake have confirmed media suspicions that the couple has split. Biel's friends claim that the couple is "so hot and cold" that it is often difficult to determine the status of their relationship.
According to published reports, Justin Timberlake was seen at a VMA after party getting cozy with songstress Rihanna last month. Timberlake has recently made headlines about his burgeoning acting career. He was selected to play Sean Parker, co-founder of Napster, in the upcoming film about Facebook called The Social Network.
No word from Jessica's camp just yet, but this reporter sure is excited that JT is back on the market!
Pulp Fiction Screenwriter Sentenced To Jail
Roger Avary, Oscar-winning screenwriter of movie Pulp Fiction, is sentenced to one year in jail and five years probation for vehicular manslaughter and DUI charges. Avary was the cause of a tragic car accident in January 2008, in which he was driving at 100 mph when the car sped out of control. The crash killed passenger and family friend Andreas Zini and critically injured Avary's wife, Gretchen. A $4.1 million settlement has been reached with the victim's family. Avary has taken full responsibility for his actions, saying: "It has profoundly altered me to the very core of my being."
Kate Plus 8
"Jon & Kate Plus 8" will soon be simply "Kate Plus Eight," according to the TLC network, who announced Tuesday that its hit reality show is adapting to totally unexpected changes in the Gosselin household, which has been disrupted by the split up of Kate and Jon.
The renamed "Kate Plus Eight," which begins November 2, will continue to follow the lives of the Gosselin kids (5-year-old sextuplets - Alexis Faith, Hannah Joy, Aaden Jonathan, Collin Thomas, Leah Hope, Joel Kevin and 8-year-old twins, Cara Nicole & Madelyn "Mady" Kate ) but will also focus on Kate's new role as a single mother.
"It's not a huge shift, but it's reflective of where the show was already going," said Eileen O'Neill, TLC's president and general manager,"Jon's going to be involved in the show," she said, adding that he will be seen less often than before. While most fans disliked the nagging Kate, who seemed to always get in Jon's face with seemingly never-ending put-downs during the first few seasons, Jon has proven himself to be a lazy, self-centered jerk in the eyes of many current viewers.
The couple made their separation official on a "Jon & Kate" episode that aired in June and was seen by 10.6 million viewers.

DJ AM's Death Ruled Accidental
A month after DJ AM's untimely death, New York City's medical examiner has announced that the cause of death was an accidental overdose. Toxicology tests showed that the celebrity DJ, born Adam Goldstein, died from acute intoxication caused by a combination of prescription drugs and cocaine. The report lists painkillers OxyContin and Vicodin; anti-anxiety medications Ativan, Klonopin, and Xanax; antihistamine Benadryl; and cocaine cut with Levamisole as present in his system when he was found dead in his apartment last month. Several prescription pill bottles and a crack pipe were also found in the apartment.
Goldstein survived a plane crash last year, along with friend Travis Barker, and was reportedly taking the anti-anxiety medication to treat his resulting fear of flying. Goldstein had also suffered from addiction problems in the past, and even took part in a drug intervention TV show before his death, which MTV is still planning to air.

Robert Pattinson is "annoyed" by The Parts He is Offered
Robert Pattinson who is known for playing vampire Edward Cullen in 'Twilight' - claims that the roles he is offered rarely challenge his acting abilities.“Annoyingly, there are so few parts I feel I can add anything to, or that I want to do," Robert complained. "Acting is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.
"I don’t want to be an actor for the sake of it. I don’t find any particular pleasure in being an attention-seeker."
Robert is somewhat overwhelmed by his new found fame because he thought the film adaptation of Stephanie Meyer's vampire drama would be "something really small."
"It’s strange because even though the figures show that the books were successful and sold millions of copies, you couldn’t even buy them in London," Robert told AnOther Man magazine. "Hardly anyone I knew had read them.
"I had no idea at all. I’d seen my co-star Kristen Stewart in 'Into the Wild' and some of the director Catherine Hardwicke’s other films, and that’s all I thought it was, something really small.”
Frog Swallows Light Meal
It's something you don't see everyday. A Florida man noticed a frog in his yard was attached to a small lighting ornament he set up earlier to help the frogs in his yard catch bugs.
The idea worked too well. James Snyder (a photographer) tells the story ... "I have a large mango tree by my patio and my wife and I have Christmas lights wrapped around the trunk and main limbs to light it up underneath.
"I took my dog out back when I noticed the frog glowing on the tree and at first I though that the frog was sitting on top of the light. I quickly put my dog back in side and grabbed my camera, but I was convinced that he would be gone by the time I returned but when I got back he was still sitting there glowing away.
"I began taking pictures from about four or five feet away because I did not want to scare him and make him move. I zoomed in and noticed that the wire was actually going into the frogs mouth, he had swallowed the entire light, he wasn't sitting at all."
James continues, "I figured he had must be dead and because there was no fear of spooking him I got very close and continued taking pictures. But after a few minutes I noticed one of his legs moved, death spasm I thought for a second until he repositioned his entire body.
"Now with the realisation that the frog was indeed alive I wanted to keep him that way. So I fired off a few more shots, then gently grabbed the wire next to the bulb and slowly pulled it out of his mouth." Snyder was able to safely remove the light as it was still attached to the wire of course. While the little frog was no longer glowing, he seemed happier to be alive.
Madonna to Marry Jesus?
The rumor mill has blown an interesting story in our general direction.
Recently divorced singer Madonna has allegedly spoken about the possibility of marrying her 22 year old boy toy Jesus Luz. Randy Taraborrelli, Madonna's biographer, addressed the seriousness of their relationship despite a 29 year age difference.
Taraborrelli tells Britain's Hello! magazine, "The pop queen has been dating Jesus since January and it is thought the pair may marry before the end of the year. Madonna is crazy about Jesus and has been telling close friends and family that 'I could definitely see myself marrying him. Yes, it's definitely on the table.'"
Madonna has been married twice before- in the 80's to actor Sean Penn and in 2000 to director Guy Richie. Madonna met Jesus in December 2008, right before her divorce from Richie was finalized.
'Lucy In The Sky' Inspiration Dies
Lucy Vodden, passed away at age 46 due to complications with the immune disease lupus. She was the inspiration for The Beatles' 1967 hit song "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds".
It all stemmed from a drawing done by Julian Lennon, John Lennon's eldest son. The picture was of classmate Lucy Vodden, nee O'Donnell, at the Weybridge Nursery School in 1966. This must have been one heck of a drawing, as it inspired Lennon to pen one of the most famous Beatles songs of all time.
Don't Look! One Of These Men Could Be Your Father
Pray that men were not really like in this in the 80's. It seems they were. Oh.... the pain of watching this. It's like a train wreck you can't take your eyes from.

Riteish's Billa Number 007
Riteish Deshmukh’s mimicry acts have often left people rolling on the floor with laughter. Riteish’s talent was noticed by comedy king David Dhawaan at an award functions who inculcated an interesting cameo for Riteish in his upcoming film, Do Knot Disturb.
Riteish co-stars with the legendary Amitabh Bachchan in Aladin and has mimicked everybody’s favourite hero in his forthcoming comedy. The mimicry was no mean feat as Riteish recreated Vijay Verma’s famous billa scene from Deewar.A source informs us, “In the scene, Riteish is dressed in a blue shirt with a rope on his left arm and a beedi in his mouth Riteish Deshmukh sways a bundle of thousand rupee notes imitating Amitabh Bachchan from Deewar. Adding tadka to the scene is Riteish’s billa no.which reads 007 instead of 786. The scene shouldn’t create any problems because Riteish and Amitabh Bachchan are on good terms as they have worked together in Aladin. Also, Riteish and Abhishek are good friends and Riteish idolizes Mr. Bachchan so he would never do anything to offend him.”
Talking about the spoof scene, David Dhawan says, “Riteish’s mother in the film, played by Himani Shivpuri imagines his son to be Amitabh Bachchan from Deewar, so we decided to have a scene with Riteish imitating him. It’s an absolutely hilarious scene that will have the audiences in splits and Riteish’s comic timing and body language is spot on. He is a flawless mimic.”
Producer Vashu Bhagnani didn’t want the scene to create any controversy or show Amitabh Bachchan in a poor light. “We have ensured it is not disrespectful to Amitji or the film Deewar. In fact we had even spoken to Rajiv Rai to tell him about the scene before we started shooting it,” he said.
Riteish Deshmukh was unavailable for comment. The multi-starrer romantic comedy which stars Lara Dutta, Sushmita Sen, Govinda, Sohail Khan, Ranvir Shorey, Riteish Deshmukh, Himani Shivpuri and Rituparna Sengupta hits theatres on October 2.

Bipasha has 13 avatars in Pankh
With her sultry appeal, earthy beauty, diva-like attitude and va-va-voom figure, Bipasha Basu was the ideal choice to play the imaginary woman who colours the male protagonist’s fantasy in Pankh.
Director Sudipto Chattopadhay says, “Bipasha does not play a real human in Pankh. She is a figment of the Jerry (the protagonist)’s imagination; an alter ego that he creates. She is neither a ghost nor a human but a fantasy who fits into Jerry’s emotional mood and psyche at a particular point of time. She has 13 personalities in the film which is one up over Priyanka Chopra’s 12 characters in What’s Your Raashee? I had written the characters with Bipasha in mind and I was delighted when she agreed to do the film as she liked the script.”In case you are wondering how long the film is, fret not as it will only take 100 minutes of your time.
He is all praise for Bipasha’s acting prowess. “All the diva-like personas are larger than life. So, her body language, costumes, make-up and hair had to change with each of them. Bipasha has done a remarkable job in the film. She walked an extra mile for it and agreed to do it in spite of it being a radical film instead of a commercial one.”
Sudipto hasn’t seen too many of Bipasha’s films. “I haven’t seen all her movies but I liked her work in Jism; she held her own in Apaharan and was brilliant in Bachna Ae Haseeno.”
About his debut feature film, he says, “Pankh isn’t an arty film. We have made it for a sensitive, emotional audience who will understand the plight of the child-actor protagonist. Cross-dressing is a common phenomenon in Bollywood and it creates a lot of confusion in the child’s mind. We want to show how cross-dressing destroys a child’s life.”
Pankh stars Bipasha Basu, Lilette Dubey, debutants Maradona Rebello and Amit Purohit, Ronit Roy, Sanjeeda Sheikh and Mahesh Manjrekar.

Rani speaks out!
With a petite frame and a million watt smile, Rani Mukherjee knows to charm her audience in real as well as reel life.
Her recent release might not have rocked the box-office, but she comes up with that million watt smile of hers. It is easy to see that she is happy. Ask her about her disappearing act before her present release, and pat comes the reply, “We actors are like vagabonds. We accustom ourselves to the surroundings, and go so deep that we need time to come out. People feel it’s so simple to make a movie. I like giving my best to a movie I work in. I want my work to speak volumes, and for that I have to give my it my 100 per cent. That is why I was away from the scene.”
While others in the industry describe her as one of the most versatile actresses, Rani wants to surprise everyone every time. “I like giving my audience their paisa vasooli. I want to do an action film which will get my adrenaline high, do something I have never done before. I want to do a real Indian martial art film. We have a martial art culture down south and even Punjabi martial art is so interesting. Nobody ever shows that. There are some TV shows where they came with such fighting styles. They really intrigue me,” she says.
What makes her do soft romantic comedies in general? “I am a feel good movie freak. You’ll see me more in romantic comedies. But now, I want to push myself for more difficult roles. For instance, it was pretty challenging to play a boy. I went through rigorous training to get my act together. And the funniest part is none of the critics have spoken about it,” says she. In other words, she has a disappointment in her heart. But, that does not show.

Holly Madison is Getting Her Own Show
Former Playboy Playmate Holly Madison will start shooting ‘Planet Holly’ in Las Vegas on October 12, and claims the new show will be “empowering” and fun.“It will have some docu-drama, but it’s the perfect excuse for me to be normal in a light-hearted comedy romp," Holly said.
“‘Planet Holly’ also will have an empowering message for women showing that however crazy the ideas you might have, they can be achieved. "
“Growing up in Oregon, I had crazy dreams. I’d see Pamela Anderson or Jenny McCarthy on TV and say I’d like to do that, too. I wanted to go off on the adventure. I dreamed of being a sex symbol as a showgirl in Las Vegas - and it all came true!”
Holly – who is famous for dating Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner, who she split from last year – also wants to help young girls realise that their dreams can be achieved through hard work.
Referring to the burlesque production ‘Peepshow’ she has been a part of, Holly added: “Just because I‘ve wound up in ‘Peepshow’ on the Vegas Strip, I’m not stopping, and I’ve set myself five more things to achieve in life. I will never stop setting new goals because I’m having fun living life.”
Lily Allen Might Retire from Music
British pop singer Lily Allen has decided to take some time off from music, possibly permanently, because of piracy issues that have been negatively affecting the music business. On her anti-piracy blog, Allen confirmed that she has no plans to tour or make another record after latest album It's Not Me, It's You. She says, "I do however remain a fan of new music, so this is not some selfish crusade. The days of me making money from recording music has been and gone as far as I'm concerned, so I don't (at this point) stand to profit from legislation." The singer has instead taken on a new endeavor, starring in the West End production of Neil Labute's play, Reasons To Be Pretty.
