Some Stuff...with JJ

Some Stuff: April 30
1938:Bugs Bunny first appeared on screen in the cartoon Porky's Hare Hunt, directed by "Bugs" Hardaway for Warner Bros.
1993: The World Wide Web was born. Though first created in 1989, today was the first day it was open to the public.
Todd Mcfarlene creator of Spawn showed up at the X-Men Origins Wolverine premier in Arizona earlier this week and spoke to my source about the return of Spawn. McFarlane said that he's got five offers on the table, ranging from big studios and big budgeted productions with a lot of special effects, to low budget, small ideas, including one that he even wants to direct himself.
Fans of Wolverine who watched the online leak of the film won't miss one thing by skipping the theater -- they'll miss at least two. The director of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, due out Friday, says the theatrical version features two different "Easter egg" endings. The short bits of footage play after the credits and reveal important information about key characters. The two endings play on separate prints, so different theaters may show different footage.
GE says its researchers have achieved a breakthrough in digital storage technology that will allow standard-size discs to hold the equivalent of 100 DVDs.
It’s merely a lab success at this stage, but the new technology is intended to work in products that can be mass-produced at affordable prices,
G.E. researchers’ work in the field of holographic storage, an optical process that stores 3D images and digital data together, encoding it all and placing it on light-sensitive material such as a DVD.
Holographic discs could hold 500 gigabytes of data. (In comparison, Blu-ray comes in 25-gigabyte and 50-gigabyte discs, and a standard DVD holds 5 up to about 8 gigabytes.)
