If you’re interested in Sundance or independent film at all, you should check out Roger Ebert’s dispatches from the Festival. His latest, relating a confusing encounter with Daphne Zuniga while under the influence of horseradish cream, is not to be missed.

Josh Kirley proposes a “Thug League” for all the college football players and teams that don’t care about classes or education. He thinks this is the only way that schools with student-athletes (like ND) can compete with each other fairly. Pretty funny and sarcastic.

Salon wonders when Japanese “dancing” videogames will finally strike it big in the States. They’ve actually got them here in the UK and they’re amazing to watch.
