Studios have been known to edge out the competition and plan for the future by scrambling to buy movie rights to what’s currently in. As a result of such race, movie rights to games such as Monopoly, The Sims, and even Battleship have all been signed and sealed. But seriously now, Farmville on the big screen?

Okay, so there’s no script for the movie – yet. But considerable talent have already been tapped to work on the project, namely, Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen, who co-wrote Pixar’s Toy Story. I think a movie about a farmer and his or her farm animals and crops might be a tad dull, unless some animals begin making moves on taking over the farm (sounds like George Orwell’s Animal Farm, I know) but I’m kind of wondering what specific elements Farmville has that movie makers want to use.

I’m curious, but I probably won’t be lining up to see the Farmville movie, if ever it does get produced and manages to reach theaters near me.

Despite its name, Cargo’s Blu-ray makeup isn’t what the Blue Man Group puts on before a show. The collection was actually created because, according to its maker, “life happens in high definition”. It’s perfect for those performers who don’t want every pore, wrinkle and zit to show up larger than life on all those new 70-inch LCD Full HD screens.

I’m not sure if Sony sanctioned the makeup’s naming convention, but it surely can’t be too upset — after all, they could have named it after HD DVD. Hollywood has spoken, and I think we have a winner.
