Hot damn!

This is probably the coolest thing you will read all week. The writer who wrote the screenplay for BATTLEFIELD EARTH apologizes for it and says he only got into Scientology in the hopes of getting laid.

AWESOME!

I accept the apology.

I don't know whether to laugh hysterically or weep uncontrollably at that quote.

While he was on such a roll, he should have apologised for "Robin Hood: Men in Tights."

(Also, not to be a wet blanket but guys, I feel like some of those witty bon mots he was describing may have only happened IN HIS WRITING!)

From the AV Club: Apology for Battlefield Earth Somehow Worse than Battlefield Earth

    The disaster that was Battlefield Earth actually makes a lot more sense now. For years, most Americans have blamed John Travolta for Battlefield Earth—after all, he was the be-wigged, be-nasal-tubed Scientologist standing at the messy, dank, gray center of a movie based on an L. Ron Hubbard book. To think, all this time we should have been blaming the screenwriter, a desperate man who wears his desperation on his sleeve in the form of a giant rubber chicken; a man who thinks calling his penis "my Willy Wonker" is the height of hilarity.

IMDB.com has more on Friday Night Lights being a DirecTV only show. I have never seen the show, but I would be pissed if I was as fan as I have Comcast (not for very much longer), but I guess that new episodes are being produced should make fans happy.
