Morning Roundup: Inspector Spacetime is Totally Cancelled

You wanna know why Stubby the Rocket doesn’t use cloaking devices? Because Stubby the Rocket isn’t ashamed to strut around. Cloaking devices are for prude and shy spaceships. Take that. Stubby can’t believe Leap Day is over, and is depressed to wait another four years before having a consequence free day again. In the meantime, here are some offsite links for your morning perusal.

Highlights include:

Simon Pegg is going to be in Star Wars!
Jean Dujardin in Tron 2 (Kind of)
Ghostbusters 3 smack talk. Is it happening, is Bill Murray in it?

Every day Stubby the Rocket jets around the internet looking for links of interest. When Stubby finds these links, they get put in our handy Links of Interest section and sometimes on our Twitter and Facebook! Lately, Stubby has been noticing occasional themes in the kinds of news in a given day, and if that happens, a small mini-category will be created! (Like today’s Doctor Who and Star Wars categories.)
