Hot news from Hollywood, and after the success of his Lord of the Rings trilogy, Peter Jackson is about to start on the followup, a five hour epic retelling of the Lord of the Flies. Watch in awe as an army of a hundred thousand rampaging teenage boys chase a cowering, hacking computer generated piggy over the vast countryside of the deserted island of new zealand. Quiver at the hyper realistic rendering as the conch shell comes alive and starts talking to the boys. Quake as... er, I can't think of anything else that happens in Lord of the Flies.

Then wait for other great films from the "... of the ... " series, including: Stig of the Dump, with ultra-realistic computer animated Stig; King of the Hill, with ultra-realistic animated Hank Hill; Battle of the Planets, with ultra-realistic animated Battles, between planets; and an entirely computer generated version of Proust's A La Recherche du Temps Purdu (eh?).

The stats are currently clocking over 880 hits with the keyword "milkshake". When it gets to 1000, I think I'll celebrate by having a... milkshake, or something.
