Sorry to hear about JOHN WITHERSPOON's passing at 77. You know him from his roles in all the "Friday" films, playing ICE CUBE's dad as well as "House Party" and a bunch of EDDIE MURPHY films like "Boomerang," "Vampire in Brooklyn," and "Dr. Doolittle 2."
Other movie news: look for NICOLAS CAGE to star in the upcoming theme park thriller, "Wally's Wonderland." in the film, as the janitor in a theme park, he'll have to fight off bunches of animatronic figures that have come alive and are after him.
In London, England, engineers have finally finished removing a sewer-clogging "fatberg" weighing 40 tons --more than 80-thousand pounds-- from the city's underbelly. The London Guardian says it was the size of a double-decker bus and took the crew three weeks to remove the mass which consisted of improperly disposed-of materials like cooking fat, grease, wipes and other unmentionables.
It's not the biggest "fatberg" ever --there's been one weighing in at 143 tons and another one bigger than a jumbo jet.Top 5 worst Halloween candies for your teeth, in case you were wondering on this Halloween day:
