EEEEEEEEE!

There's a teaser trailer up for the new Star Trek movie coming out this December - it's about a minute long, be patient with the download. (Trust me - it's really cool, no actors or spoilers, just music and voiceovers and machinery.) Gosh, I didn't realize how much I've missed Trek these past few years until I saw this.

Oh, and this was my amusement factor for the day - the part about Orlando's nomination for AWE. *eyeroll* (Which was totally ameliorated by the Trek trailer. EEEEEE!)

WTBF?

(This is the closest "shocked" icon I have, I think)

According to the good folks with CNN and the AP, Heath Ledger is dead. It remains to be seen if, in the words of Samuel Clemens, reports of such have been exaggerated.

Friend beldar, who is a fellow editor, has the AP version, albeit brief, on his LJ if you want to zip over and scan it. I'm sure it'll be updated this evening.

EDIT: For the love of pete, please get your news from a reputable source, NOT some place like TMZ (nobody who's commented has indicated they do; this is more of a general teeth-gnashing at seeing THEIR name attached to anything with "news" on it). I wouldn't trust a TMZ reporter to scrub my toilet without dropping a cherry bomb in there; I certainly wouldn't trust them to tell me what's going on.
