This past weekend I happened to catch The Proposal on the big screen, and as captivated as I was by the hilarious plot line, I couldn't help but take notice at Sandra Bullock's character — Margaret Tate's — cell phone obsession. A big executive editor-in-chief of a book publishing company, Margaret convinces her assistant (Andrew, played by Ryan Reynolds) to marry her so she won't get deported back to Canada.
During a trip to Alaska for his grandmother's 90th birthday party, Margaret's white Nokia E71 is stolen by a hawk (I know, sounds far-fetched, but it's such a funny scene), so she has Andrew order her a new phone.

Yesterday Buzz got the scoop on the new Facebook movie, which is apparently a legitimate project being pursued. Honestly, when Aaron Sorkin joined Facebook last year, I definitely thought The West Wing creator's profile and rumors of the film were a hoax, but it appears everything is on the up and up. I was only mildly interested in the movie, rumored to be called The Social Network, before Buzz found out that David Fincher, of Zodiac and Fight Club, may be directing.

One of the coolest things about the Blu-ray takeover is BD-Live, which allows you do cool stuff like watch movies while recording your own commentary track — I've done The Dark Knight with my nearest and dearest and confirm its awesomeness.
For the Watchmen's Blu-ray release, it'll also get a revolutionary welcome on social network site Facebook. The Blu-ray discs will capitalize on the BD-Live feature and enable you to have "community screenings" on Facebook; you'll be able to watch the movie simultaneously with your Facebook friends and make status updates for your commentary.

Who knows when the next installment of the Batman film series will come out? You'll be inclined to not care (as much) after seeing this trailer for new video game Batman: Arkham Asylum, where Batman looks like the villain in the realm of criminals.
Voicing Joker is Mark Hamill (that's Luke to you, geeks), giving a different feel from Heath Ledger's portrayal — but it's nearly as chilling.

Concluding this year's Oscar Worthy Gadgets series is a movie up for three Academy Award nominations, including best costume design, art direction, and Michael Shannon's nomination for his performance in a supporting role. Starring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio, Revolutionary Road takes us inside the lives of a couple who struggle with the mundane realities of living in a Connecticut suburb.
Because the movie is set during the mid-1950s, there were many vintage tech shots.
