Cinema news: One of the summer's most eagerly anticipated movies opens tomorrow in Los Angeles. Of course I'm talking about Friends & Family, featuring Broadway cutie Brian Lane Green, Anna Maria Alberghetti, Tovah Feldshuh, Edward Hibbert, and Meshach "Yes, I've worked since Mannequin 2!" Taylor. "Meet the real gay mafia."

Set aside an hour or so: Retromedia.tv is, like, the best thing ever! Dozens of RealMedia clips of television intros, outros, network bumps, commercials and other ephemera from the 60s, 70s and 80s. Hear that Metropolitan Life jingle that haunted my childhood! See the suprisingly non-wacky intro to The Paul Lynde Show! Thrill to the "let's put on a show!" energy pervading a 1982 Coca-Cola commercial [last clip on this page]! I love sites like this! [hat tip to Scrubbles]
