  • Saturday’s Shenanigans = Entertainment News + Double Rainbow

    In honor of the great Nathan Fillion (@NathanFillion on Twitter) and his spearheading of the new “it” phrase ‘double rainbow‘, I will bring you the entertainment news this week with a double rainbow rating:

    Totally not double rainbow: After last weeks news that Ed Norton officially would not be back in the role of Bruce Banner and turning into the Hulk, we have a new possibility to fill Banner’s shoes: Joaquin Phoenix. Please, are you serious? If this is true, I’m going to be awfully upset. Marvel said they didn’t want to pay Norton and that he was to difficult to deal with. So your solution is go get another A-lister? One who grew a big homeless guy beard, ‘retired’ and turned himself into a rapper for a ‘documentary’? Yeah, sounds like the perfect example of reasonable and accountable.

    Double rainbow across the sky, all the way: Another rumor about Mark Ruffalo replacing Norton seems a bit more on the level. Apparently they are in advanced stages of negotiations, it looks like this is probably going to happen. (more…)

  • Welcome to the new Hijinks Inc.

    Welcome to the new Hijinks Inc.

    Boom. New site layout, new features, we even threw in a bit of that fresh new website smell. Same great content, now with just a bit more style.

    We’ve upgraded our WordPress install to 3.0, added in an email subscription option for our RSS feed, as well as the ability to subscribe only to posts by a particular author, improved threading of comments, fixed some server side issues which were causing random 500 errors, and we’ve launched a shiny new mobile website for Android, iPhone, and iPad.

    Apologizes to those visiting our site during the upgrade process, it took quite a bit longer than expected to finish. And we’re technically not 100% done yet, so there might be a few minor glitches over the next few days, so please report any problems you run into with the site.

  • Site Maintenance

    Just a heads up, Hijinks Inc. will be going under the knife around 12:00 AM CST. The site will continue to load, but expect random errors, jumbled looking pages, and missing content until around 1 or 2 AM

    If you want an uninterrupted browsing experience, I suggest accessing Hijinks Inc. from your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad as the mobile version of our site should not be affected.

    It will be worth it, we promise.
