This started out as a post of one link, but I found a few other things in the entertainment world that needed some attention.

  • Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci and Justin Timberlake in a movie called Black Snake Moan where Jackson plays an old blues guy who cures Ricci’s character of nymphomania? Sounds like trip out of remake hell to me.
  • For the Stephen King fans out there, I just discovered that he writes a fairly regular column for Entertainment Weekly. I think the magazine is pretty much crap, but then a lot of people think King is crap too. Screw ’em. (P.S. It looks like you have to be an AOL or EW subscriber to read any of the columns prior to this year. Doh.)
  • This op-ed on Hillary’s crusade against Rockstar and GTA:SA is getting a lot of link love today. I was so pissed at her about it that I had to add to the love. Leave that crap to Leiberman, Hillary.

Photo Contest 1
So, I thought I’d try out a new game here on the Austin Metblog. It’s already being done on a somewhat regular basis in LA and Houston. The idea is that I post a photo of some location in Austin and you try and guess where it is. The first one to correctly identify the location in the comments wins a prize. I’m not sure what the prize is yet, but I’ll figure something out. I’ll let the contest go until Monday, at which point, hopefully I’ll have found something to give away. If nobody guesses it by Friday, I’ll add a hint. All you other Austin Metbloggers keep quiet. Let’s let our vast readership have a chance first.

Hint 1: It’s downtown (north of 1st, but south of 12th).
