[scifinoir2] Pierce Brosnan Out As James Bond, 007
http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/ap/20050817/112429692000.html Pierce Brosnan Out As James Bond, 007 Wednesday August 17 A single, surprising phone call and it was over. That's how Pierce Brosnan says he learned that his services as James Bond would no longer be required. One phone call, that's all it took! the 52-year-old actor tells Entertainment Weekly magazine in its Aug. 19 issue. Brosnan starred in four Bond films. He says that before they stopped negotiations, the producers had invited him back for a fifth time. You know, the movie career for me really started with Bond, says Brosnan, acknowledging that by the time GoldenEye premiered in 1995, he was already 42. He then starred as 007 in Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), The World Is Not Enough (1999) and Die Another Day (2002). His departure from the role was a titanic jolt to the system, says Brosnan, followed by a great sense of calm. I thought. ... I can do anything I want to do now. I'm not beholden to them or anyone. I'm not shackled by some contracted image. So there was a sense of liberation. Brosnan says he's grateful to have had the role, but adds: It never felt real to me. I never felt I had complete ownership over Bond. Because you'd have these stupid one-liners which I loathed and I always felt phony doing them. He plays a foulmouthed, skirt-chasing hit man in the upcoming film The Matador. (For this) to come on the heels of my departure from the world of Bond is sweet grace, to play this one as a farewell to that chapter in time it certainly wasn't planned. ___ On the Net: http://www.piercebrosnan.com/ Yahoo!

[scifinoir2] Anybody read this article today...NO GREAT NOVELS THIS YEAR
NEW YORK - As the fall season approaches, the book world is still searching for this year's great American novel. Looking across the landscape, there were supposed to be some literary novels that blew everybody away. But for various reasons, they didn't quite perform, says Jonathan Burnham, vice president and publisher of HarperCollins, which released last year's National Book Award winner, Lily Tuck's The News From Paraguay. I think everyone is still waiting for the book that everyone greets as the big literary book, says John Sterling, president and publisher of Henry Holt. People thought it would be a strong year for fiction, but it hasn't turned out that way. With the presidential election over, Sterling and others had expected fiction to reclaim the attention given to topical books. But anticipated novels such as Michael Cunningham's Specimen Days and Jonathan Safran Foer's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close received mixed reviews at best and the fall doesn't look any better. Publishers and booksellers struggled to think of a book with the kind of word of mouth that spread last year for Philip Roth's The Plot Against America and Marilynne Robinson's Gilead, which went on to win a Pulitzer Prize. One hope is E.L. Doctorow's The March, a novel based on Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman's bloody campaign through the South during the Civil War. Doctorow's book is possible, Sterling said of the Random House release. I'm hearing very good advance word on that one. It would be great to see something break through. But Sessalee Hensley, fiction buyer for Barnes Noble, Inc., says, Nothing's going to be `Gilead' this year. With the public still edgy from war and an uncertain economy, fiction continues to serve more as a means for escaping the world than for engaging it. The big books have been thrillers, such as The Da Vinci Code and The Historian, and the fantasy blockbuster Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Not only have established literary authors disappointed critics, no major new literary voices have emerged. I think a lot of editors will tell you that 2004 and 2005 haven't been very good for fiction acquisitions. There weren't a lot of huge auctions or books that publishers got really excited about, says Geoff Shandler, editor in chief of Little, Brown and Co. I'm afraid I must agree with that, says HarperCollins' Burnham, who adds that the number of standout literary debuts have been disappointing. Notes Sterling: There were no dazzling debuts. Plenty of fiction should at least sell well, including works from Patricia Cornwell, Sue Grafton, Jennifer Weiner and Candace Bushnell. Courtroom master Scott Turow looks back to World War II in Ordinary Heroes. Robert Hicks' The Confederate Widow, another Civil War novel, could become the year's big fiction debut. Anne Rice's Christ the Lord may be the most controversial release, a story about Jesus from an author known for more pagan narratives. The oddest could be the late Marlon Brando's Fan-Tan, a pirate adventure the actor worked on in the 1970s. Other fiction includes Salman Rushdie's Shalimar the Clown, Zadie Smith's On Beauty and Nadine Gordimer's Get a Life. There's lots of new titles in the fall, but it's hard to really point to a real blockbuster either in the commercial of literary category, says Michael Spinozzi, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Borders Group Inc., the superstore chain. The fall looks thinner than it has in previous years. In nonfiction, Al Franken is back on the attack with The Truth (With Jokes), but otherwise political books will focus more on policy than on personalities. Jonathan Kozol's Shame of the Nation denounces racism in public education, while Barbara Ehrenreich endures the job market in Bait and Switch. Memoirs will come from the famous and nearly famous. Dean and Me is Jerry Lewis' loving portrait of his old partner, Dean Martin. Julie Powell's Julie Julia is the writer's efforts to master the recipes of Julia Child, based on postings from Powell's blog. The criteria signing `Julie and Julia' were very similar to what we would use for any book proposal: There was a strong voice, there was a freshness and a novelty to what she was doing, says Little Brown's Shandler. A great blogger is like an excellent guitar player, but the book is like playing piano. Bloggers have a head start because they know music, but they still have to make the adjustment. Yahoo!

[scifinoir2] Is Everything Bad Really Good For Us?
http://www.thetyee.ca/Mediacheck/2005/08/10/EverythingBad/ Mediacheck Is Everything Bad Really Good For Us? Steven Johnson says pop drivel makes us smart. Guess what, media love him. By Laura Barcella Published: August 10, 2005 AlterNet.org Steven Johnson is a lucky man. Once a respected - albeit somewhat obscure - technology journalist and nonfiction author, he recently watched his career undergo a dramatic, quick-change makeover (à la insipid FOX reality show The Swan). With the publication of his latest book, Everything Bad is Good for You (Riverhead; May 2005), the Brooklyn-based author has been shoved into a suddenly-adoring public spotlight, receiving critical acclaim everywhere from the New York Times (where Everything Bad ... was excerpted) to Salon, to the New Yorker and the San Francisco Chronicle. On his Web site, Johnson notes with bewildered pleasure that - so far - the book's media buzz has been 90 percent favorable (and 10 percent negative). OK, but from where we're standing, it looks a lot more like 100% favorable; we've seen Johnson all over the news and the Net, and are hard-pressed to find a review that doesn't kiss his butt. Then again, considering his book's premise, the fact that the media loves Johnson isn't so surprising. Everything Bad is Good for You is a wholehearted endorsement of pop culture - Johnson argues that everything we've been told is mind-killing drivel (TV, video games, and the ever-addictive Internet) has actually increased our IQs and made us smarter. He argues that mass entertainment has grown more cognitively challenging over the last 30 years, and that TV shows of today - particularly, multi-thread dramas like Lost and 24 - have helped us learn focus, patience, retention, and the parsing of narrative threads. Right. So let's be honest - it sounds like a lot of publicity-fueled hooey (does mass media really need its back scratched any more? It already sucks in gazillions of advertising dollars, not to mention millions of impressionable American minds). I spoke with Johnson by telephone from his Brooklyn home to try to determine whether this guy was for real. Laura Barcella: Have you been surprised by all the attention you've gotten from the book? Steven Johnson: Yes and no. What's been surprising is the sheer volume of it. I knew this book was going to get more attention than my others because it is easier to describe and it's got the patrician hook, and people care about pop culture one way or the other. But I didn't realize it was going to be quite so crazy. It's sparked this international conversation about the state of American pop culture. I did [an interview with an] Argentinean paper and a German paper today, and there have been dozens of articles about it overseas, not including England ... The other interesting thing about it is that the criticism has come from the Left more than from the Right. And it may just be that the Right hasn't engaged with it yet. I did a show with a conservative-values person yesterday who was arguing with me about it. ... But generally [criticism has been] from a group that I'm much closer to philosophically - progressive folks who don't let their kids watch TV because they don't like the ads and commercialism. What happened in your conversation with the conservative values person yesterday? It was perfectly civil. We had this funny exchange where he kept trying to make me out [as] this guy saying, Your kids should be allowed to play Grand Theft Auto all day long. I kept saying, Look - I think Grand Theft Auto is inappropriate for most kids, but the truth is that most video games are not violent. I say that right upfront, in the video game section of my book. So why do you think some people are resistant to the idea that pop culture isn't all bad? Well, it's a couple of different things. It's the oldest complaint in the cultural book that whatever the kids are up to today is no good. [Laughter.] We went through this with rock n' roll, and now we're going through it with video games. And there is this technological learning curve, particularly with interactive stuff and games, where not only do [older people] not get it, but they literally can't sit down and ... understand how to play. There's part of kids' culture that the older generation just literally hasn't seen. Part of what I was trying to do in the book is to walk people through what you actually do when you play video games, so that they would understand the complexity. Also, I think there's this nostalgia ... it's quaint to go back and look at these TV shows from the '70s. You know, they are sweet in some ways, but they just really aren't as smart. One of the things that I like to do when I talk in person is to show a few minutes from [the first season of] Dallas. You just can't believe how slow and plodding and predicable it was. And back then it was [considered] the hottest, raciest show on television! Everybody was like, Ooh,
