Paper Airline Ticket Dead: etickets will reduce the processing cost to airlines 2007-08-29 07:29:24 Apparently, paper airline tickets are now a thing of the past. From now on airlines will use etickets, which will save both time and money. In case you hadn’t already guessed, etickets are electronic tickets, ie on a comuter system rather than printed on a piece of card. The airline trade body, Iata has said that these old fashioned paper tickets will be history as of June 2008. Iata conducts settlements between 60,000 travel agents and the airlines. The change to etickets will drop the cost of processing an airline ticket to just 50p (US$1), whereas it has been over £4.50 (US$9). This means that etickets will save the airline business a massive £3 billion. What do you think of the new etickets for airlines?

Red Symons talks to the WikiScanner creator Virgil Griffith 2007-08-29 06:57:26 Red Symons has recently spoken to the creator of the WikiScanner, Virgil Griffith who some people are calling a mischief making computer hacker. For those of you who do not know what the WikiScanner is you must be living on another planet, in Wikipedia’s own words they describe it as a tool which “consists of a publicly searchable database that links millions of anonymous Wikipedia edits to the organizations where those edits apparently originated, by cross-referencing the edits with data on the owners of the associated block of IP addresses”. Virgil has said that he came up with the idea of WikiScanner when he heard that a Congressmen was caught for white-washing their Wikipedia pages, and it seems that many more leading politicians have gone onto Wikpedia and then edited the entries that they did not agree with.

Sorry, but why is there a punisher sequel? The first one wasn’t even good enough to warrant one! The Punisher’s title was the name of a Marvel comic book series that ran from 1992-1995. It was also the title for a previous film sequel that was written by Jonathan Hensleigh, the director of the 2004 Punisher film. Ray Stevenson will replace Thomas Jane to play Frank Castle after Jane supposedly walked away from the project after having doubts about the script. The screenplay was written by Nick Santora, Kurt Sutter, Matt Holloway and Art Marcum. Filming is said to start this fall in Montreal for a 2008 release.

Dwayne Johnson Wants To Escape to Witch Mountain 2007-08-29 06:40:09 Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) has signed on to appear in the Disney remake of the 1975 film Escape to Witch Mountain. The film is based on the sci-fi novel by Alexander Key and follows the story of two mysterious orphaned children who have extraordinary powers and are chased by a scheming millionaire with plans to expolit them. It seems like Dwayne has gone from one Disney family comedy (The Game) to another so I’m confused. I was certain that Johnson wanted to become this huge action hero but is now starring in kid films? Now, I’m all for kids movies, I think they’re great but if you want to be a super macho action hero, stick to that genre otherwise it could be the kiss of death (just look at Arnie!). Andy Fickman (She’s The Man, The Game Plan) is attached to direct the movie. Source Written by Lucy for Product ReviewsIn Sections: Film News, News ...

Kingsley Coach RV MPG ratings set to increase in the teens thanks to hybrid or hydrogen powerplants 2007-08-29 06:33:41 So many people complain about the poor fuel figures of the Hummer but nobody seems to attack the poor figures that an RV has. The thin is RV’s only manages to have about half the fuel efficiency as a Hummer but that is about to change, as Kingsley Coach are looking to produce an RV with either a hybrid or hydrogen assisted powerplants. It is hoped that by doing this these RV’s should return MPG figures somewhere in the mid teens. If they were to go with the electric hybrid option then it will work just like the Honda Prius does, but Kingsley Coach are also looking at a hydrogen system, which uses a hydrogen injection system instead of the fuel cell option. If they go for the hydrogen version then you could see fuel savings of up to 15 percent, but if they were to go with the hybrid version then you would see a fuel saving of at least 35 percent. But Kingsley Coach are looking for other ways to become a more green option, as they would like to us solar panels on the roof’s of the ... Hybrid

Who Was The Funeral for In Dark Knight? We Know! 2007-08-29 06:25:46 Spoilers for The Dark Knight have been posted thick and fast on the internet. The latest one, about a huge funeral has been causing quite a stir with fanboys and with everyone wondering - Who is the funeral for? we only felt it was fair to let you know! According to a report by Comic Book Resources, there was a large framed picture of Morgan Freeman above the coffin. Although, we’re not sure about this. Was Fox with Military or Police as whomever the funeral is for was given a seven gun salute. Could it be that they consider Fox’s work on technologies at Wayne Enterprise to be service for the military? Either that or the whole picture stunt was a hoax by Warner Bros in an attempt to keep the real identity guarded. It has been said that the funeral took place in a public place with a ton of extras so the latter could possibly be true, especially with film spoilers popping up everywhere.

Bruce Campbell Will Not Return To Bubba Ho-Tep Sequel 2007-08-29 06:12:33 Last week it was reported that Paul Giamatti was waiting on Bruce Campbell for a Bubba Ho-Tep sequel. We were all hoping that Bruce would return and a sequel would be made. We all thought it would be a given that Bruce would return as Elive to team up with Colonel Parker and fight Vampires. Unfortunately, Bruce obviously doesn’t need the work as, in a recent interview Campbell said, “[BUBBA NOSFERATU] is dead to me. It sleeps with the fishes. Don Coscarelli is a very passionate filmmaker. We got to a few points [developing the screenplay] that we couldn’t reconcile. I want to keep our friendship, so we parted ways. So I’m not part of that project.� Don Coscarelli, director of Bubba Hp-Tep has said he is considering recasting the film wit another popular actor. Any suggestions on who that actor could be?
