Here's the trailer for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, starring Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter.

I didn't give this a look when it was first released, but after the second trailer was released today and after hearing a lot of buzz I decided I would and yep, it looks pretty cool.  If you're wondering why I'm posting the first trailer instead of the new one released today, it's because I didn't see much of a difference between the two and really, the first one is better.

William Shatner accepts an award that has absolutely nothing to do with him at Spike TV's 2009 Scream Awards

William Shatner accepts an award for a film (Star Trek) that has absolutely nothing to do with him at Spike TV's 2009 Scream Awards

Spike TV's 2009 Scream Awards played out on Saturday, October 17, honoring achievements in science fiction, fantasy and horror.  These are awesome awards that make a mockery of both the Oscar's and the Emmy's, so good job Spike TV!

The big wins this year go to J.J. Abrams' Star Trek, followed by Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, then Twilight and True Blood.

There was a downside though. In what I consider to be worthy of the Ultimate Turd Award, William Shatner stepped up to accept the Ultimate Scream award for Star Trek. Honestly, the guy didn't star in it and admits to having never seen the film.  He's been nothing but disrespectful to the whole thing, so why he was given the opportunity to allow his ego to steal anyone else's thunder is beyond me.  To make matters worse, listen to what his all-mighty-bloatedness had to say:

"J.J., I’ll handle this. This movie was big. Imagine how big it could have been with me in it? … I’ll be waiting for your call."

Clearly everyone was in on the "surprise", but personally I found this moment to be a mockery of a great film.

Now that my rant is out of the way, check out the winners list after the jump.
