‘Hunger Games’: Target to Sell $999 Mockingjay Pin, Replica of Katniss’ Leather Jacket
The retailer moves towards upscale collectors items to coincide with the Lionsgate film’s DVD and Blu-ray release.
by Sophie A. Schillaci
Target is going high-end for The Hunger Games DVD and Blu-ray release.
In addition to offering pre-orders of the discs, the retailer has announced that it will be selling a solid 14-K gold Mockingjay pin, like the one Jennifer Lawrence’s Katniss wears in the film, for an astonishing $999.
But the high-end merchandise doesn’t stop there. Target, which is known for offering a variety of items at inexpensive prices, will also be selling a replica of Katniss’ leather hunting jacket for $349 and a lithograph autographed by 10 Hunger Games actors, including Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth, for $699. The catch: Only 100 of each item will be available for purchase.
Lady Gaga Gets Machete Kills Character Poster
by Ramin Shabestari
Robert Rodriguez has unveiled a brand new poster for his upcoming sequel to the Danny Trejo-starrer ‘Machete Kills’ featuring pop star Lady Gaga playing a character called La Chameleon.
Nothing has been mentioned about her character’s background or how she fits into the plot. All we say is that Gaga joins an already well-stocked cast of femme fatales that includes Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriguez and Sofía Vergara.
A sequel to 2010’s ‘Machete’, which in turn grew from a fake grindhouse trailer of the same name, ‘Machete Kills’ sees Danny Trejo returning as the titular character who is recruited by the President of the United States (Charlie Sheen) to take down a Mexican cartel leader with deadly missiles pointed straight at America.

by SPACE.com Staff

The Discovery Channel Telescope is an observatory with a 14-foot (4.3-meter) mirror built near Happy Jack, Ariz., by the Lowell Observatory and Discovery Communications, the parent company of television’s Discovery Channel. The telescope’s opening was marked with a gala on Saturday (July 21) at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff and featured a keynote speech from Neil Armstrong, the first person ever on the moon.

12 Most Colorful Towns in the World
Some cities don’t need neon to brighten up the landscape. From pastel towers on the Italian coast to a crayon-colored artist colony in Argentina, these 12 towns make color the primary focus.
By Ryan Murphy
Ever notice how many of the world’s great cities and monuments are, well, a bit bland? The pharaohs obviously skimped on the paint budget for the pyramids. And today, the Parthenon looks regally monochrome from its perch on the Athenian Acropolis. But there are some bright spots. Thankfully there are the candy-colored towns of Italy’s Cinque Terre and vibrant neighborhoods from Buenos Aires to Cape Town to keep your vacation photos from looking a little beige. Or take a trip north of the Artic circle to a Norwegian town that brightens up the lunar landscape with charming orange, blue, and red dwellings (be sure to say hi to Santa Claus while you are there). Join us on a tour to five continents as we explore a dozen of the world’s most vibrantly colorful towns, and we’ll let you know exactly where to go to get the best view.
