It is Saturday morning, and that means that it is time for our Weekly Pit column. What’s happening in the world of entertainment?

• Will Desmond be in next season of lost? His story wrapped, but a lot of signs point to yes. (BuddyTV)

• Roger Ebert shows us how to read a movie. (Sun Times)

• The NY Post takes a look at how the west was “fixed”. Interesting stuff. (NY Post)

• Oh Jon Stewart, I thank you for putting everything into perspective. (Huffington Post)

• Remember that film break in “Gremlins 2”? Well, someone with way too much time on their hands, made a “DVD break”. See the Gremlins invade a couple classic films. (YouTube)

• I went back and archived Phasekitty’s Book to Film review of “The Devil Wears Prada”. (My Hollywood Dream)

Stay tuned for more weekend posts and our weekly recap! 🙂

Fans of the hit HBO Show “Entourage” will get a kick out of this video plea from Johnny Drama to fans of his cult TV series “Viking Quest”.

If you think Johnny is just full of drama and is money hungry, then ignore him and head over to VikingQuestGame.com and take the new game for a test run and find out more about the show’s DVD box set. 🙂

The New Old Kids on the Block are back! Earlier today, the “kids” preformed “Step by Step” and other classics on The Today Show. Keep reading for the video and links to more!

One of my favorite games on the X-Box 360 is coming to the Wii! “Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop” follows the story of “Frank West, an overly zealous freelance journalist on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. In pursuit of a juicy lead, he makes his way to the small suburban town of Willamette only to find that it has become overrun by zombies. Frank escapes to the local shopping mall” where the real fun begins (Source: IGN).

While the graphics might not be as slick as they were on the 360, the Wii offers a way for gamers to enter the zombie infested mall in a whole new way as you’ll have to hack/slash and point/shoot the Wii controller at the flesh eaters to survive. With 10,000 zombies coming at you, I can only imagine how tired your arm will be after a few hours of gameplay. Keep reading to watch a video showcasing the gameplay (gory/graphic violence).

I was checking out a mix of videos on Pwn or Die (dot) com when I found this hysterical Mortal Kombat spoof video, “Mortal Kombat – Finish Him!”

In the video, “The Emperor of Outworld is out for more than blood as Sub Zero and Liu Kang fight to the death.” The graphics and acting are top notch and perfectly match the original game’s look, feel, and voice over commands.

Did you miss the “Prison Break” season premiere? Well, thanks to Hulu, you can watch it in its entirety. Continue reading to watch “Scylla”, the first episode of the forth season of “Prison Break”.

“Burn After Reading” is the Coen Brother’s follow up to “No Country for Old Men”. It stars Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich, Tilda Swinton, and J.K. Simmons. In the film, Pitt and McDormand portray “unscrupulous” gym employees that find a disk that contains the memoirs of a CIA agent (Malkovich) and the adventure they find themselves in when they try to sell it. Yahoo has released a new scene from the film featuring stars Pitt and McDormand.
