Culture, World: Dwight from “The Office” speaks out on his Baha’i faith

  • About the faith Rainn Wilson is a member of the Baha’i faith, a monotheistic religion which started in Iran in the mid 1800s. As places to start religions go, Iran is a pretty bad one, and much religious persecution has occurred there since. It’s probably worse than anything Dwight puts up with. source

  • Why he’s speaking out Wilson, in a commentary piece he wrote for CNN, is bringing light to the religion in part because of a group of seven prisoners being held in Iran on a variety of charges he says lack evidence – just the latest to be persecuted by Iran.

Culture: Period drama + bloodthirsty aliens? We’d pay to see that.

  • “Pride and Predator” could be amazing. The movie is exactly what it sounds like – in the midst of a period Jane Austenish costume drama, an alien ship crash lands, and the aliens start killing the formerly full-of-themselves arthouse actors. To be directed by Will Clark and produced by Elton John, there’s no way this could suck. All we gotta say is: “Please cast Keira Knightley. Please cast Keira Knightley.” source

Culture: Did octet mom Nadya Suleman rip off Angelina Jolie?

  • It’s one thing to clip out a celebrity’s photo from a magazine and ask your stylist to copy that cut. Who hasn’t done that? But to have a nose job, have collagen injections in your lips and start talking like Angelina – that’s over the top.
  • A friend of Angelina Jolie • who was quoted in the Chicago Sun-Times as saying that Jolie is “totally creeped out” by Suleman, who appears to have possibly gone to extreme lengths to copy Jolie’s look. Suleman also tried contacting Jolie, apparently. • source
