  1. Ah, sweet Elastigirl! by YetAnotherName · · Score: 5, Informative

    Elastigirl, who appears in this movie, was also the name of a superheroine (but with a hyphen: Elasti-Girl) in the DC Comics published Doom Patrol, an old comic from the 1960s. Her superpower: altering her size, not stretching parts of her body,

    OK, yes, I'm old. At least I'm not overweight and eating a rapidly congealing breakfast burrito ...

      Oh, great. Now Disney is going to have to sue DC for stealing the character.

    Akamai (which is what Yahoo uses) moves around 15% of the web's traffic. A couple thousand /.'ers downloading a 30 megabyte file isn't even going to show up as a bleep to them, as terrible as that may sound.

    You're probably right, but I still think /. should start making a habbit of using caching technologies like FreeCache or Coral when linking to media.

    Slashdotting and the ensuing "/. KILLED MY SERVER!1" comments are, erm... funny and all, but it kind of defeats the purpose of a news web-site when links are posted in the full knowledge that they won't be available for very long simply because of the popularity of the news-site.

  4. Disney is going down by tepples · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The Walt Disney Company has shut down its cel animation studios. Pixar will probably leave Disney after The Incredibles and Cars have completed their runs. There's trouble in Miramaxland. Now I know why Michael Eisner decided to get out in 24 months: there won't be a Disney left. What does survive of the company will assume a role similar to that of Cedar Fair, which runs a few amusement parks.

  5. i sincerely hope... by dioscaido · · Score: 5, Interesting

    ... Shark's Tale crashes and burns, and the Incredibles triumphs in their wake. With the exception of Shrek, Dreamworks has been playing copy cat to Pixar. Pixar develops a Bugs Life, and -- what a coincidence -- Dreamworks releases Antz a few months before Pixar. Pixar develops Finding Nemo, and Dreamworks comes out with a Shark's Tale.

    They did so well with their only original idea -- Shrek. Given how lame ST looks in previews, I hope it spanks them into forced creativity.

  8. Both new and nerdish = news for nerds. by Scrameustache · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Is this news for nerds now? New movie trailers?

    New CGI superhero sci-fi movie trailers.
    Lets see, its new, so its news, and its CGI superhero sci-fi stuff, so its for nerds.

    Yup, meets the criteria of "news" "for nerds".

    Now go to the settings page and make some kind of arrangement that leads to you not having to see movie news on the front page and us not having to see your post complaining about them. Everyone wins.
