...actual murder weapon and that the knife in question "doesn't match an outline of the knife on the bed." Additionally, Bremner says, expert testimony has already indicated that at least two of the wounds on Kercher's neck couldn't have been made by that particular blade. That aside, she points out, it's not surprising that Knox's DNA would be on its handle; she prepared dinner with Sollecito in his apartment...

...lovelorn and wimpy. Not Guillermo del Toro's. His will suck you dry with a stinger-tipped tentacle. It's not really the kind of stuff teen girls want to read. But Del Toro, director of the Oscar-winning Pan's Labyrinth - as well as The Devil's Backbone, Blade II and the Hellboy series - isn't trying to appeal to the Stephenie Meyer set with his new novel. The first in a trilogy (co-written with author Chuck Hogan), The Strain opens with a plane that lands in New York City, lights off, windows drawn, everyone seemingly dead. Naturally...

TNG wasn't dirty and real like Star Wars or degraded and cyberorganic and cosmopolitan like Blade Runner. This was the other future, the one that wasn't ever actually going to happen, but you wished it would. And it was riveting. Unconstrained by plausibility or topicality, TNG was free to be playful and sexy and self-aware and melodramatic and often just plain dramatic. (See pictures...

...Trek - just Star Trek, straight, no chaser - is Abrams' attempt to reverse-engineer the early years of Kirk and Spock and the rest of the original-series crew. It's like a Stanislavskian exercise, retroactively endowing the characters with a set of childhood memories (rather like the replicants in Blade Runner) that explain how they became who they are. (Captain, it appears we are caught in a time loop...
