IT'S HARD OUT THERE FOR A CHIMP: Cartoon Madness IV: Circus' opening night festivities

Cartoon Madness IV: Circus presents three-ring art show (Alcove Gallery’s fourth annual show in a series that emphasizes local artists sets its sights under the big top.)

Which summer movie has the best trailer? (This summer looks like it’s going to be a good one with X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Star Trek, Pixar’s Up, and, well, you’ll just have to click the link to find out what else.)

What (other) character will die on ‘Lost’s’ fifth season? (Since this week’s “Lost” was a rerun, the Televangelist hands the baton to Curt, who gets the discussion started with one simple question: “Who’s next?”)

The Last Dragon and Bruce Leroy at Midtown Arts tonight (What could be better than a watching The Last Dragon with a beer? How about watching it with a beer and Bruce Leroy, the man who played the bullet-catching black-belt Taimak in the movie.)

Speakeasy with Donnell Rawlings (The “Chapelle’s Show” alum brings his act to Vortex’s Laughing Skull Lounge this weekend. “I’m rich, bitch!”)
