...Thanks to conniving from the usual slimy coven of agents and network execs - and a tumble of coincidences nearly as endearing as they are preposterous - Bolt is shipped to New York City, where he strikes up a quick animosity with a sassy cat named Mittens (Curb Your Enthusiasm's Susie Essman). Their itinerary will be no secret to the youngest of viewers: cat and dog, joined by Rhino (Disney animator Mark Walton), a hamster who travels in a Plexiglas ball. Through Rhino, a diehard fan of the TV show, Bolt realizes that his powers aren't so super...
...Cullens are actually a local coven of vampires. Edward has been 17 since 1918. He is superstrong and superfast, he can hear people's thoughts, and he does not breathe or sleep or age.

He and Bella are instantly, overwhelmingly attracted to each other, but he is also wildly hungry for her blood...

The conclave had been organized in a rush by club founder and grand poobah Jim Powers, and publicized on our website by Jim Shea. Powers had been contacted, in the aftermath of the glorious occasion, by the Boston brass to see if the BLOHARDS would like to gaze upon, and pose with, the championship...
...hero of Little Children, to the extent that it has one, is Sarah, a woman with a master's degree who finds herself at the age of thirtysomething watching her 3 year-old daughter frolic in a manicured playground, surrounded by a coven of fellow mothers who are capable of discussing only "the eating, sleeping, and defecating habits of their offspring, the merits of certain local nursery schools, and the difficulty of sticking to an exercise routine." For fun, she fantasizes about the host of Blue's Clues. Ouch. Todd, the iceberg to Sarah's Titanic, is a genial...
