The folks who brought you the first 457 “Friday The 13th” films have gone and done it again. “Jason X” will soon slice up a theatre near you.

Apparently, this newest incarnation of the long ago dead slasher series takes place in the year 2455. Based on the trailer, this movie features a crazy-frozen-turned-into-a-robot Jason, space guns, very bad dialogue, songs by Drowning Pool, and hot chicks.

And since space guns and hot chicks are two of my top three requirements for seeing a film, I’ll be there on opening day. Ja-Ja-Ja-Ja … son-son-son.

Twentieth Century Fox has set the domestic release of “Star Wars: Episode II — Attack of the Clones” for Thursday, May 16 Variety reports.

Variety also suggests that you get in line somewhere around May 7.

The Mars Society has been traveling to a remote Arctic outpost called Devon Island since 1997 to research technologies and methods that may allow humans to inhabit Mars. The work is hard, cold, and dangerous. There is no pay, though the society will pay all expenses.

Just think, you could acheive eternal glory by being chosen to man a mission to Mars. Not to mention that it could be you big pimpin in one of these outfits. Surely, one of the major focuses of research must be on having sex in a place like this.

To apply, send your resume, character references, and a brief letter explaining why you wish to participate to:
