| ‘The Green Mile’ Star Michael Clarke Duncan Dead At 54 Posted: 03 Sep 2012 03:41 PM PDT  Michael Clarke Duncan, the hulking actor who played notable characters in The Green Mile, Armageddon, and Daredevil, died today. He was 54. The actor had suffered a heart attack back in July and doctors initially expected him to make a full recovery, but he remained in the hospital and had been moved to an intensive care unit in August. TMZ reports that Duncan's passing today came suddenly. His girlfriend, former Apprentice star Omarosa Manigault, was with him at the hospital in Los Angeles today and had left his room for a short time. He was dead upon her return. The Chicago native, who entered into the world of show biz as a bodyguard for celebrities like Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, got his big-screen break in 1998 in Michael Bay's Armageddon, where he starred alongside Bruce Willis. It was Willis' influence that led to Duncan landing his breakout role as John Coffey in the Frank Darabont-directed The Green Mile, based on the novel by Stephen King. It was this role of a death row inmate with extraordinaries powers which earned Duncan several award nominations, including an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor [...]      |

| The Doctor Who TARDISblend 52: Asylum of the Daleks Posted: 03 Sep 2012 08:01 AM PDT  It's finally here! Episode One of Doctor Who Series 7 has hit the screens, and the TARDISblend is here to review the Asylum of the Daleks. The Doctor (Matt Smith), Amy Pond (Karen Gillan), and Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill) are reunited after being captured by the Parliament of the Daleks. They are under threat from the Dalek Asylum, but fear intervening, deciding instead to forcibly send in "The Predator of the Daleks" aka the Doctor to eliminate the mad Daleks... During TARDISblend 52, we take a look at the Parliament of the Daleks and the creepy unshelled Prime Minister, and debate the return (of lack thereof) of Classic Dalek Designs in this new premiere episode. We also discuss the major surprise of the episode, introducing a new character earlier than expected, which we're STILL wondering how the BBC kept a secret until now. The crossover of themes from Series 6 gets integrated into Asylum of the Daleks, and we examine Steven Moffat's approach to the longer overarching storyline across seasons, particularly to the question that should not be asked: "Doctor Who?" Finally, we compare Asylum of the Daleks to the impacts of previous season openers, and provide some Classic Doctor Who recommendations to our listners. All this and more on the latest TARDISblend!
