Brand-New New Kids on the Block Single Leaks to Internet; World Rejoices

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG: "Click Click Click," the first single from the reunited New Kids on the Block has leaked, and we've posted it above for your enjoyment. [A.V. Club]

Lost Is Written the Way People Talk: Intrepid blogger Defective Yeti read a few scripts from the first season of Lost and discovered they have awesome, profanity-enhanced stage directions. Such as this one: "And as Jack slowly looks up — standing right in front of him — just FIVE FUCKING FEET AWAY — Is ETHAN." [Defective Yeti]

Get Chabon's Spider-Man 2 Script!: If you act fast, you can download Michael Chabon's original screenplay for Spider-Man 2 here. Why didn't Marvel use it? Possibly because it's set in Alaska and deals exclusively with Spider-Man coming to terms with his Jewish identity. [McSweeney's via /Film]

Everyone Claiming Credit for MILF Island: Three years ago, comedy writer Adam McKay, friend of Tina Fey, gave an interview in which a journalist pitched him a reality show called MILF Lagoon. Is that where Fey got the idea for MILF Island? We doubt it, since setting it in a lagoon would completely change the tone of the show. [Daily Intel]

Barbarella Still Happening After All: Rose McGowan tells MTV that she's still slated to star as space vixen Barbarella in Robert Rodriguez's upcoming remake, even though some say that might not be a good idea. [Movies Blog/MTV]
