et tu, Danny Elfman?

The Berlin Film Fest is causing quite a stir this year with films about Palestinian suicide bombers, African genocides, and dead French presidents. But the lamest headline award goes to The Final Days: Berlin cheers anti-Nazi film.

We here at Film Light advise you to instead of watching Search for the Pearl a reality tv show featuring more talentless posers to rent

Investors for Going Upriver: The Long War of John Kerry sue
director for lack of profits...
? A 2.5 hour documentary NOT BEING COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL?! It's like I don't even know what to believe in anymore!

The lawsuit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, says brothers Marc Abrams and Russell Abrams were misled to think Butler and producers were trying to make a commercially successful film.

Instead, the Abrams brothers allege in their lawsuit, "Going Upriver: The Long War of John Kerry" was intended primarily to
influence the 2004 presidential election in favor of the Democratic Massachusetts senator.

Breaking News: Scientologists are Still Crazy. Thank you.

"I intend to make Scientology as accessible to as many people as I can. And that is my goal," [To do this] it is my "duty to clear the planet." By "clearing" she means to rid the world of "body thetans"; (aliens who Scientologists believe inhabit the earth from a nuclear explosion 75 million years ago) ... "the more successful I became, the more suppression I bumped into; especially in the entertainment industry, which really is home to rabid suppression." --Jenna Elfman

Jenna Elfman -- she knows she doesn't have to play Dharma any more, doesn't she? I mean, someone has told her the show is over. Right?!

I went and read Celebrity magazine, where she is supposedly quoted from, and there is nothing about aliens.

That is not even what "clearing the planet" means. I searched www.scientology.org and this is what I found (http://www.scientology.org/en_US/religion/catechism/pg018.html):

"It means that Scientologists want to rid the planet of insanity, war and crime, and in its place create a civilization in which sanity and peace exist. In order to do this, they must help individuals become free of their own individual insanities and regain awareness that they are basically good."

Nothing weird about it at all. Sounds good actually.
