I'm sitting here typing this, thinking... another Nelson Mandela project? How will it be well-received, given that there've been a few over the years that have tackled the icon's life?

As if ABC's new cross-dressing comedy, Work It, which stars Ben Koldyke and Amaury Nolasco, didn't already have enough to handle, notably the complaints from LGBT and Human Rights groups about its content, generally bad critical reviews of the show, as well as poor audience reception and word of mouth when it debuted... now this happens.

Sorry folks, I would have had this weekend's box office report much earlier as usual, but I had to wait to get this weekend's results for Pariah which took longer than usual. But I'll get to that in a minute.

It's been over a year since we last reported anything about A Man's Story, and there might have been a fear that it had fallen through the cracks. So it's good news that it's finally getting a theatrical release in the U.K. on March 9th and hopefully soon in the U.S. as well.

Of the course this weekend's box office numbers won't come out until tomorrow; but if everything holds through tonight as expected, the horror film, The Devil Inside, is going to be the talk of the town on Monday morning.

I admit that weekends are slow. Not a whole lot is going on. So when I came across this item today I thought it's better than nothing; besides we have covered developments involving Ted Williams in the past, so why not?
