...dispute has long since turned personal for both men. Eisner's book relates how they grew up near each other on Manhattan's Park Avenue and rose through Hollywood's ranks together, with Eisner bringing in the decade-younger Katzenberg, first at Paramount, then at Disney. For two decades they worked in tandem, churning out blockbusters (Aladdin), star-making hits (Sister Act) and plenty of duds (Billy Bathgate). When Eisner wouldn't make Katzenberg his No. 2 after the death of president Frank Wells in a 1994 helicopter crash, the team went down as well...
There are plenty of things that make the followers of Gary Null different from everybody else. For one thing, they may be getting younger--"de-aging," as Null puts it. For another, they may never have to worry about going bald...
There's a lot to be said for getting younger and reversing balding, as there is for the other medical wonders Null offers: natural treatments for cancer and heart disease, alternative ways to combat allergies and AIDS.

Author of more than 50 books, host of a daily radio show and creator of two popular self-help videos, Null is preaching...
...annoying it's almost criminal. I cringed every time he opened his big floppy mouth to spit out whatever nonsense it was he was saying. Jar-Jar is at the root of many of the film's moments of misdirection; I guess he's in there to appeal to younger kids, but even so, Lucas is playing down with the character's clumsy shenanigans. And when he steps in manure and gets a faceful of flatulent gas, I was really embarrassed (Yeesh, there's farting in Star Wars...
...obsessive promotion of AbEx as the great American moment, the arrival of sudden maturity, is waning now (How could anyone keep it up?), but it has a slightly weird consequence for this show. The older works--the ones from the teens, '20s and '30s--look fresher than the younger ones. We are used to seeing endless reproductions of de Kooning, Pollock, Rothko--but not of Elie Nadelman, Arthur Dove or Joseph Stella. Because of this contrast, the top two floors of the show--it starts at the top and, taking advantage of gravity, goes downward--seem more interesting than...
