  • Toy Story 3 having problems o one wants to direct 'Toy Story 3.' That's the word in Hollywood's animation world, where the third installment of the incredibly successful Pixar series has no director, writer or, possibly, stars. My sources in the animation biz tell me that Disney, which will make 'Toy Story 3' without Pixar, cannot find a director to guide the project. ➡

  • CBS needs to work on their definition of ‘issue’ ads CBS can't decide whether they'll run controversial advertising or not. ➡
  • Go Judy! An absolutely beautiful article at The Nation looking at the media's inability to cope with the fact that Judy Dean is exactly what she appears to be — a normal, well-adjusted independent woman in a healthy, loving relationship with her husband who doesn't want to abandon her medical practice to be trotted out at every political opportunity during the campaign season. ➡

  • Concrete Blonde review posted I just got e-mail from Dean, the webmaster of a Concrete Blonde fansite. Earlier this morning I'd e-mailed him about my little writeup of last night's show, and he went ahead and posted it on his site! ➡
  • Still in Hollywood I've been to shows where the band is too busy performing to really make a connection with the audience. Johnette is anything but that -- the kind of artist that you can, and do, actually believe when they talk about how much they're enjoying being there, how much fun they're having performing, and how much they love the audience that night. ➡
