Austin Film Fest to honor Milch
— The Austin Film Festival has just announced that David Milch will receive the 2006 Outstanding Television Writer Award during this fall’s festival. Milch is the co-creator of “NYPD Blue,” and his other credits include the classic “Hill Street Blues” and HBO’s “Deadwood.”
— “Superman Returns” is “too much of a chick flick with not enough action and a weak villain”? Or is it “not only an epic fantasy adventure but a sad romance about an alien outsider who will never really belong.”
— The Disney parks are updating their Pirates of the Caribbean rides to add Captain Jack Sparrow, which creates a quandary. On the one hand, they’re messing with a beloved attraction that was just fine the way it always has been since we were small. On the other hand, adding Johnny Depp is hard to argue with.
