Entertainment News #35: Shelved Movie, Cancelled Show and Sesame Street

- Warner Bros. Discovery has announced that the movie Coyote Vs. ACME has been shelved entirely and is no longer being released despite being completed. All for a $30 million tax write off. Why does the CEO David Zaslav even work in the entertainment industry? Because it doesn't seem like he cares about the movies and shows that are being created or see in value in them. That is other than the large paycheck and bonuses he receives.

Characters Reading: Bert (Sesame Street)

I feel bad for Bert, he was trying to enjoy a quiet moment reading too bad he didn't get a chance to continue it. Because it was impossible for Bert to continue reading once Ernie was there. I don't know how Ernie didn't realize how annoying he was being? Especially since he was making so much noise. I guess the title for this should have been Characters Trying to Read because Bert certainly didn't get a chance to get much reading in.

Happy Kwanzaa and Boxing Day

December is full of so many wonderful Holidays and there are two of them today: Kwanzaa and Boxing Day. Today is the beginning of Kwanzaa and to all my readers who celebrate, I would like to wish you a very Happy Kwanzaa!

Although over here in the US we don't officially celebrate Boxing Day, however, we do celebrate shopping the day after Christmas. Which apparently is what Boxing Day has turned into. Anyway, I wish all who celebrate the holiday a Happy Boxing Day!

Happy Hanukkah!

To all my Book Girl readers who are celebrating, I want to wish you a very Happy Hanukkah. May each of the eight days be a wonderful celebration for you and your family and friends.

Feel Good Friday: Ernie telling Bert jokes (Sesame Street)

It's Feel Good Friday and I thought what's better than Sesame Street's Ernie telling jokes to a very annoyed Bert. I figure this might brighten your day, too bad it's certainly not going to do the same for Burt.

Happy Ramadan!

Ramadan Mubarak to all my readers who will be observing the holiday. Ramadan is considered one of the holiest months of Islam, and it's dedicated for worship, charitable giving, caring for family and spiritual reflection.

I really want to wish you all a very blessed and peaceful month!

Happy Halloween!

Whether you're out trick or treating or staying in and passing out candy or settling in for a scary movie marathon, don't forget to keep it spooky and fun!

Happy Halloween!

Free Comic Book Day 2018

Every year it seems like there are more and more people who show up at my local comic bookstore for Free Comic Book Day. Yesterday, was fun and exciting with so much energy in the air from all the people looking around taking in everything. I didn't mind standing in the long lines because it was great seeing so many people and kids who were happy picking up books. Despite the store being so packed, I did manage to pick up a good selection of free comics.

Aside from the free comics, I also bought a few things: a Spider-Gwen pin and Funko Sesame Street Burt and Ernie figures. I also bought a Spider-Pig sketch from artist Terrell Culbert. I wanted to buy something from him at last year's FCBD but I didn't make it out there because I had been sick with a cold. So this time I made sure to get a sketch from him.

Spider-Pig

Yesterday really was fun, I enjoyed walking around the store looking at stuff and talking to other comic book geeks. If you're still on the fence about attending Free Comic Book Day, maybe think about going next year. Hopefully, you will have as much fun as the rest of us comic book geeks.

This is cute, even though I highly doubt Cookie Monster actually learned how to be patient.

Sesame Street Cake

This Sesame Street cake is just fantastic, right. It's really unbelievable.
