Some exciting times are upon we the fans of Futurama. Since the show’s glorious return, it has put up some pretty strong numbers for Comedy Central and the new season (originally the second half of last season) is set to premiere this upcoming June!
But it’s the social network itself, Facebook, where Futurama is really dominating in popularity. The animated series from Matt Groening and David X. Cohen‘s official Facebook page just recently got its 10 millionth “Like” — more than Angry Birds, Pearl Jam, and NPR…COMBINED.

Please Let It Be So: Quentin Tarantino’s Next Film To Be A Spaghetti Western

It’s no secret that director Quentin Tarantino has been heavily influenced by both kung-fu movies and spaghetti westerns of the ’60s and ’70s. We saw him dive into the kung-fu with Kill Bill and he already delivered on the movie fans have been begging him for for years, Inglourious Basterds, so the absolute perfect next project for him would be a western, naturally.
Django and Die Hard 2 star Franco Nero was talking recently and happened to mention that he was doing a new spaghetti western with Tarantino that also involved Keith Carradine and Treat Williams. It was unclear at first whether this was true or not, or what was actually entailed in the possible project. This led AICN to do a little digging, and while all details are still a little uncertain they were able to come up with some very exciting information.
First of all, they confirmed that Tarantino is putting together his next movie and it will indeed be a spaghetti western, which could be one of the greatest pieces of news ever for fans of the director and the western genre. Adding to that, their source says that Quentin already has one star locked up: his Basterds villain and Oscar winner Christoph Waltz. [...]

Tim Burton, Josh Brolin Set To Team Up For ‘The Hunchback Of Notre Dame’

According to the trades, and interesting new project is beginning to take form for Warner Brothers.
It’s being reported that none other than Tim Burton, director of movies like Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, Big Fish, and Alice in Wonderland is helping to develop a new film adaptation of the 1831 Victor Hugo novel, The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
On top of that, Josh Brolin, star of The Goonies, Milk, No Country For Old Men, and True Grit is also helping to develop with Burton.
Brolin will also be producing and starring in the movie, though it’s unclear what role he would be playing. Burton is about to get to work on Dark Shadows with Johnny Depp, so it’s still unclear whether he’ll have the chance to direct Hunchback as well. That decision will come after the director has read a script.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame has been adapted numerous times over the years, and tells the story of a deformed man known as Quasimodo who lives in the bell tower of a cathedral and eventually falls deeply in love with a gypsy woman named Esmerelda. [...]
