Universal Studios and Hasbro have apparently spent $200 million creating a new movie based on the kids' game Battleship. Yup, you heard me right. Battleship. Apparently Connect Four was on a rehab stint or something. While the cast of the film includes some talent, including "True Blood" star Alexander Skarsgard, Liam Neeson, and even Rihanna (?!), it looks amazingly bad. Watch the trailer here.

It's morning in Rosewood and that means Spencer is drinking her first gallon of black coffee with the other little liars while they discuss murder, blackmail, harassment, and conspiracy. You know, girl talk. Right on time they get a gift basket with a note from A referencing the fact that Emily now lives at Hannah's house. It's less threatening, and more casually reminding them that A is watching them all the time, forever.

The latest casualty on AMC's smash hit "The Walking Dead" surprisingly isn't zombie-related. It's behind-the-scenes instead. Showrunner and executive producer Frank Darabont has stepped down from his duties leading the zombie pack, according to Deadline Hollywood.
Looks like producers will soon be picking their brainnnnnssss for a way to replace him. Sorry. We all knew that pun had to happen eventually.

And then, there were two. But not before it almost, kinda-maybe-sorta looked there might once more be three.
It's been an incredible journey full of stupid people doing really stupid, hurtful, senseless things, but we're now upon the finale. And this week, what remains of the herd was culled down to two prize bulls. Who remains?
