Welcome back for another edition of News Bits.  What is it you ask?  The film world can get quite overwhelming at times in the news that releases.  Unfortunately some of this news is just too small to warrant a full article. Rather than deprive you of the news, we've created this section.  This week in news bits we’ve got posters, pics, dates, and so much more!

TMP is back with an all new look, and to celebrate that, we're giving away yet another wonderful prize to all of our readers.  This time around, you'll have the chance to win an autographed poster from The Empire Strikes back signed by just about all of the main cast!  Come and check out how to win.

One of the funnier things to come out of the Internet lately has been this video debate between William Shatner and Carrie Fisher over which is better, Star Trek or Star Wars.  Obviously they're on opposite sides of the argument and have some funny and interesting reason why.  Now George Takei (Dr. Sulu in Trek) has come out with a video in the hopes of ending the feud and uniting the fans over a common enemy....Twilight.
