second ring

Check out the teaser trailer for The Ring Two; the site appears to be hammered right now -- at least the trailer is loading for crap.

I saw Ringu prolly four years ago, and The Ring (US remake) during my recent trip to the USA; it was a lot better than expected, but quite different than the Japanese original in many ways. A five paragraph essay, comparing and contrasting the two, is in the works. Hey, we have to use that damned skill somewhere, right?

“Our legendary personalities are evergreen ‘brands’ with the benefit of worldwide recognition,” reads a message on the Richman agency’s website. Guardian UK Article *vomits* Where is the line drawn between “public figure” and “celebrity”? How can a dead person have an agent, particulary where there are no specific works concerned other than a sense of character? It’s one thing to insist that Duck Soup is a work that should be protected (which any more simply means controlled by whomever has the most buX0rs), but shouldn’t personalities and such pass into the public domain as well?
