RevolutionSF Newsblast is the only place for hard-hitting sci-fi journalism. Today's sponsor: a book about the Munsters written by Eddie Munster!

Wayanses Love Munsters

The Wayans family will do a movie version of the sitcom with the judge from My Cousin Vinny who said "What's a yute?" Shawn Wayans said the Munsters movie script is on its "third polish." How strange and bizarre is that? That someone would look at a Munsters script three times?

Stan Lee, Gay Superhero Novel In Same Sentence

Perry Moore wrote Hero, a novel about a gay superhero, and now it's in the works as a live-action series for Showtime. Remember when books didn't have any superheroes in them? That sucked.

Quantum of Solace Director To Do World War Z Movie

Marc Forster will do Max Brooks' World War Z book and make a movie out of it. Remember when books didn't have any zombies in them? That sucked, too.

Asimov Book Will Probably Never Be A Movie, But They Did A Press Release Anyway

The Other Twilight Books Will Be Movies, Too

Meanwhile, the rest of the Twilight series will be movies, too, even though the first movie hasn't come out yet. Those books came out in the last couple of years, so the turnaround is 50 years quicker than End of Eternity. Asimov fans should be pissed.

Verily Doth A Thor Cartoon Venture Toward Midgard

(Talking like Thor is fun.) We only have to wait two years for those slow bastards to make us a Thor cartoon series. I'm sure it'll be fine, but it won't have a theme song as good as this one. It's just so beautiful.
