As seen in the new IMAX film “Hubble 3-D,” the seven astronauts on the STS-125 Mission had some serious business to take care of. Traveling at 17,500 mph, they first had to grab and secure the telescope, then make various adjustments to specialized cameras and spectrographs, as well as replace batteries and insulation, and install new gyroscopes. 

The more I hear of She & Him, the more delightful it seems that M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel managed to find each other. Yes, I said delightful, which is not a word often used to describe pop music these days … at least not by me.

Over their extensive, eclectic career, Joel and Ethan Coen have made virtually every kind of film, from screwball comedy (“The Hudsucker Proxy”) to film noir (“The Man Who Wasn’t There”) to modern crime drama (“Fargo”).

The death of Corey Haim last week adds yet another name to the lengthy list of child actors and actresses who failed to make the transition as adult stars.
