List Challenge!

CNBC is reporting that a deal has been reached to end the writer's strike. According to Michael Eisner, "It's over. They made a deal. They shook hands on the deal." (note - for the sake of the blog, I ask that you ignore the fact that Michael Eisner is a studio has-been who now divides his time between guest hosting Charlie Rose and managing Topps Co., the well-known bubble gum and collectibles firm. Let's assume that he is still in-the-know)

Well Listers, what are the top 5 reasons this deal is the best news ever?

No clue. But #1 reason this is bad news? Movies For Sale has no hope of making any money now. Spineless wimps.

5. American Gladiators will now return to the 9th circle of hell where it belongs.

4. "Tonight's guest...presidential candidate Mike Huckabee!"

3. Before Wednesday's quote of the day, I had already forgotten Pushing Daisies existed.

2. The remaining 8 episodes of Lost can be finished!

1. Modern-day siren Mary Hart will have NO role in informing me of this year's best picture.

Look, as I've indicated by my vote on the poll, any one of those movie ideas can make $100,000 at least. So all hope is not lost.

1. The Oscars (TM) will happen. More hot dates with Javier Bardem, Julie Christie, Cate Blanchett and Daniel Day-Lewis.

2. Maybe a guilded person will read *movies for sale* and write a screenplay that makes over $100,000.

3. *Arrested Development* movie.

4. Jon and Derek can stop arguing.

5. It's too late to call off Big Brother Winter 08, bitches!
