Pop Culture Roundup Aug. 10, 2007
Filming has begun on Doctor Who's fourth season with Catherine Tate boarding the TARDIS as the Doctor's new companion, Donna Noble. More from the BBC:
The start of the new series will see Donna tracking down the Time Lord during an alien emergency in modern-day London.
The couple are destined to experience a series of wonderful adventures throughout the new series including meeting one of Doctor Who's most popular aliens, The Ood, in a brand new episode, Planet Of The Ood.
Donna and The Doctor – David Tennant – will also be travelling through time for an encounter with the legendary murder mystery novelist, Agatha Christie.
Agatha Christie will be played by Jekyll star Fenella Woolgar and The Good Life actress Felicity Kendal will star as Lady Clemency Eddison.
Blackadder and Notting Hill actor Tim McInnerny will also guest star later in the series.
Doctor Who's executive producer and head writer, Russell T Davies comments: "Visiting Agatha Christie has been on my wish-list for ages now and, for the Doctor, it's a real meeting of minds! Viewers can expect many more ambitious storylines and a whole host of guest stars in 2008."
Mathew Prichard, Agatha Christie's grandson, comments: "What a brilliant idea that Agatha Christie and Doctor Who should meet! Two characters whose contribution to British entertainment is absolutely unrivalled.
"As far as I know my grandmother, Agatha Christie, never saw Doctor Who, but I am sure she would have been intrigued, excited and above all flattered by all this attention in 2007."
Catherine Tate said: "I am delighted to be returning to Doctor Who. I had a blast last Christmas and look forward to travelling again through time and space with that nice man from Gallifrey."
Freema Agyeman who has played Martha Jones, The Doctor's companion throughout the critically acclaimed third series, will return to the show to join The Doctor and Donna mid-series.

"Layer Cake" director Matthew Vaughn is set to direct a big screen Thor movie.
Mark Protosevich (I Am Legend) is scripting the tale, which will bring the Norse god to life as he wields his mighty hammer Mjolnir and travels from his mystical home of Asgard to help the humans of Midgard.
The announcement comes just as Paramount releases Matthew's latest project Stardust, an adaptation of the Neil Gaiman novel, starring Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer.
It marks his second effort at a superhero pic. He was apparently attached to direct X-Men 3 before bowing out for personal reasons.

Pop Culture Roundup Aug. 9, 2007
In a lengthy interview, Joss Whedon talks about Buffy and Marvel Comics, his ill-fated Wonder Woman script and his in-the-works horror flick "Goners."
------------------
The official Doctor Who site presents some cool season 3 concept art by the show's production artists.
-------------------
Robyn Hitchcock has a retrospective box set in the works.
I Wanna Go Backwards will include two disks of B-sides, demos and alternate takes along with Hitchcock's 1981 debut, Black Snake Diamond Role, 1984's I Often Dream of Trains and 1990's Eye--all with bonus tracks. It'll be out Oct. 16.
In 2008, a second box, tentatively dubbed Bad Case of History, will sport the three albums Hitchcock recorded with his band the Egyptians plus another odds-and-sods collection, "Dynasty."
--------------------
Check out a stunning collection of World War II propaganda posters.
-----------------------
The Deseret News doesn't like Sci Fi's new "Flash Gordon" series, which premiers Friday night.
The first time I tried to watch the 90-minute pilot of "Flash Gordon" I fell asleep. The second time, it was all I could do to keep my eyes open.
And I like science fiction shows. I was sort of looking forward to this one.
While Inside Bay Area thinks it's worth giving a chance:
Flash Gordon" is a hoot and a half, especially after Friday night's choppy 90-minute pilot. As we all know, pilots are the place where all the ingredients get tossed in the pot and something coherent sort of springs forth.
But after we get through the initial introductions, "Flash Gordon" turns into a tasty little treat. The action takes place on both the planet Mongo and Earth, with people and aliens shifting back and forth between the two. Later episodes will take place on other planets as well.

October 2007 comics solicitations
Along with upcoming items from DC and Marvel Comics, here's some stuff to look out for in your comics shop come October. Click links to pre-order items from Amazon.
COMPLETE PEANUTS 1963-1964 HC
by Charles M. Schulz In this volume of the bestselling Complete Peanuts series, Charles Schulz introduces one (in fact, three) of the quirkiest characters to the Peanuts universe, the numerically-monikered 95472 siblings. They didn't stay around very long but offered some choice bits of satirical nonsense while they did. As it happens, this volume is particularly rich in never-before-reprinted strips: over 150 (more than one fifth of the book!) have never seen the light of day since their original appearance over 40 years ago, so this will be a trove of undiscovered treasures even for avid Peanuts collectors. Introduced by Bill Melendez, animator of all the Peanuts TV specials starting all the way back with A Charlie Brown Christmas!
HANK KETCHAMS COMPLETE DENNIS THE MENACE 1957-1958 HC
by Hank Ketcham No one captured the mischievousness, rambunctiousness, and anarchy of a kid's world better than cartoonist Hank Ketcham with Dennis the Menace. The strip appeals to both parents and children - while parents shake their head ruefully at how accurately Ketcham caught the essence of children's natural zest for mayhem, children identify with Dennis and the chaos that he leaves in his wake. Ketcham's gags are funny, subtle and touching, and executed with a vivacious exquisite line. Ketcham's legendary pen and ink work achieves its full flowering in this volume, as do the various situations and themes that Ketcham would return to again and again. This fourth volume of Hank Ketcham's The Complete Dennis the Menace publishes every single panel strip from 1957 and 1958 in one handsome and thick hardcover volume.
POPEYE VOL 2 WELL BLOW ME DOWN HC
by E.C. Segar This second volume of the acclaimed hit series collecting the entirety of E.C. Segar's original Popeye (a.k.a. Thimble Theatre) comic strips begins with a foreword by Beetle Bailey creator Mort Walker, and continues with an introduction by noted film and cartooning critic Donald Phelps. This second volume features work from 1930 to 1932, and most notably includes the debut of Segar's second greatest character: J. Wellington Wimpy, which stands as a one-of-a-kind icon some 70 years after his creation - the most likeable lowdown cad ever to grace the comics page. Popeye Volume 2 includes the stories: "Clint Gore" (continued from the cliffhanger last volume); "A One-Way Bank," in which Popeye opens a bank that allows withdrawals but no deposits; a long war story featuring King Blozo that begins with "The Great Rough-House War"; and "Skullyville," which wraps up the daily strips for this volume.
EC ARCHIVES VAULT OF HORROR VOLUME 1 HC
by Various Legendary publisher Bill Gaines provided the forum and creators like Al Feldstein, Johnny Craig, Wally Wood, Harry Harrison, Jack Kamen, Harvey Kurtzman, Graham Ingels, and Jack Davis provided the mayhem. Six full issues and 24 complete stories are collected in this full-color, deluxe volume. Foreword by perennial N.Y. Times best-selling author R.L. Stine.
UNCLE SCROOGE ADVENTURES LAND PYGMY INDIANS WAR OF WENDIGO TP

This time "Land of the Pygmy Indians" is teamed with its follow-up, "War of the Wendigo!" When Scrooge grows sick of the big city's rumble, his back-to-nature journey takes him to the Peeweegah - Native Americans whose traditions haven't changed in a thousand years, and whom he must defend from modernity's encroaching grasp!
WALT DISNEYS CHRISTMAS PARADE #5
by Barks, Block, Korhonen & Scarpa It's Gemstone's latest 80-page Disney annual!

Then Pat and Shelly Block plunge Donald into a "Cookery Countdown," and Italian maestro Romano Scarpa brings us Mickey, Goofy and the Ducks in "Memoirs of an Invisible Santa." Finally Scrooge returns to top off the book with Kari Korhonen's "Mr. Clerkly's Christmas!"

The Dark Avenger explores the worlds of magic and mystery in two of Walter Gibson's most intriguing thrillers.

Plus, writer/magician Walter Gibson reveals yogi secrets and the levitation illusion. Then, Lamont Cranston visits a magic convention to investigate "The Magigals Mystery," featuring Walter Gibson's only pulp cameo! This classic pulp collection also features George Rozen's incredible pulp covers, all the original interior art by illustrators Edd Cartier and Paul Orban, and historical articles on Walter Gibson's magical world by Will Murray and Anthony Tollin.

Pop Culture Roundup Aug. 8, 2007
Back in the 60s, illegal "pirate" radio was the best place to hear the hippest music in the UK. Now, some of the best-known DJs from that time are broadcasing again--legally. According to the BBC:
Johnnie Walker of BBC Radio 2, Emperor Rosko – who is flying over from Los Angeles to take part – Norman St John and John Kerr, both coming over from Australia, are just four of the DJs.
They will be boarding the LV18, a former lightship moored half-a-mile off Harwich, for six days of music and chat, with the emphasis firmly on Sixties music.
Programmes start on Thursday 9 August 2007 and continue 24-hours a day until 3pm on Tuesday 14 August – 40 years to the day and time that nearly all the original pirate stations went off air, scuppered by the Marine Offences Act.
As well as by tuning in to Pirate BBC Essex on 729, 765 and 1530 MW, the shows can also be heard via the website, bbc.co.uk/essex.
--------------------
Another attempt is underway to bring Jonny Quest to the big screen.
--------------------
Anton Yelchin ("Alpha Dog") is in negotiations to play Chekov in director J.J. Abrams' upcoming Star Trek film.
Casting is under way in New York and London for Kirk, Bones, Uhura, Sulu, Scotty, the film's villain and the Federation captain. Abrams is expected to sign bigger-name actors for the latter two parts.
---------------------
Carla Gugino is joining the cast of "Watchmen." She'll play the original Silk Spectre, part of the Minutemen, a group of heroes who preceded the Watchmen.
She joins Patrick Wilson, Jackie Earle Haley, Matthew Goode, Billy Crudup, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Malin Akerman in the Warner Bros. movie, which is set in an alternate America that has passed a law banning costumed crime fighters. When one is murdered, the remaining members set out to solve the mystery.
-----------------------
Shadows' guitarist Hank Marvin tells how Paul McCartney nearly gave "Here, There and Everywhere" away.
...at least Marvin has finally recorded an instrumental version as McCartney originally envisaged it. It's one of 15 tracks on his new album, Guitar Man - which includes the old Bread classic as the title track, George Harrison's While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Sting's Fields of Gold, James Blunt's You're Beautiful and Summer House, a new song co-written by his son Ben.

It's one of 15 tracks on his new album, Guitar Man - which includes the old Bread classic as the title track, George Harrison's While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Sting's Fields of Gold, James Blunt's You're Beautiful and Summer House, a new song co-written by his son Ben.

The Pirate Loop
by Simon Guerrier
The Doctor's been everywhere and everywhen in the whole of the universe and seems to know all the answers. But ask him what happened to the Starship Brilliant and he hasn't the first idea. Did it fall into a sun or black hole? Was it shot down in the first moments of the galactic war? And what's this about a secret experimental drive?
The Doctor is skittish. But if Martha is so keen to find out he'll land the TARDIS on the Brilliant, a few days before it vanishes. Then they can see for themselves...
Soon the Doctor learns the awful truth. And Martha learns that you need to be careful what you wish for. She certainly wasn't hoping for mayhem, death, and badger-faced space pirates.
Wishing Well
by Trevor Baxendale
The old village well is just a curiosity - something to attract tourists intrigued by stories of lost treasure, or visitors just making a wish. Unless something alien and terrifying could be lurking inside the well. Something utterly monstrous that causes nothing but death and destruction.
But who knows the real truth about the well? Who wishes to unleash the hideous force it contains? What terrible consequences will follow the search for a legendary treasure hidden at the bottom?
No one wants to believe the Doctor's warnings about the deadly horror lying in wait - but soon they'll wish they had...
Peacemaker
by James Swallow
The peace and quiet of a remote homestead in the 1880s American West is shattered by the arrival of two shadowy outriders searching for 'the healer'. When the farmer refuses to help them, they raze the house to the ground using guns that shoot bolts of energy instead of bullets...
In the town of Redwater, the Doctor and Martha learn of a snake-oil salesman who's patent medicines actually cure his patient. But when the Doctor and Martha investigate they discover the truth is stranger, and far more dangerous.
Caught between the law of the gun and the deadly plans of intergalactic mercenaries, the Doctor and Martha are about to discover just how wild the West can become...
