Updated: Cheech & Chong to be on The Simpsons
At this year's Comic-Con, Simpsons creator Matt Groening and producers showed off some clips and revealed a few details of the coming season.
This year's Christmas special will feature the Simpson's as puppets. This year's Treehouse of Horror Halloween special will feature games, such as Chutes and Ladders, come to life, as well as a parody of The Office.
Upcoming guests include Flight of the Conchords and Cheech & Chong.
The Cheech & Chong episode will air Spring 2011. It was written by written by Dan Castellaneta (who voices Homer) and Deb Lacusta. It spoofs the more than two decades-long break-up. Homer, being a big fan of the comedy team, joins Cheech in a new duo called Cheech and Chunky, while Chong pairs up with a Springfield teacher for Teach and Chong.
“Homer thinks Cheech is the party animal, like his character, but soon finds out that the real Cheech is quite a bore,” says Chong. “Eventually, the two teams end up on the same bill and argue over who should go on first.”

Official Machete Website Launched
The official website for the new Robert Rodriguez film, Machete, has been launched. The site has some great photos from the film, as well as the trailer.
Machete is based on the "fake" trailer in Rodriguez's 2007 Grindhouse. The feature version of the trailer finds Machete (Trejo) a renegade former Mexican Federale, roaming the streets of Texas after a shakedown from drug lord Torrez (Seagal). Reluctantly, Machete takes an offer from spin doctor Benz (Fahey) to assassinate McLaughlin (De Niro) a corrupt Senator. Double crossed and on the run Machete braves the odds with the help of Luz (Michelle Rodriguez), a saucy taco slinger, Padre (Marin) his "holy" brother, and April (Lohan) a socialite with a penchant for guns. All while being tracked by Sartana (Alba), a sexy ICE agent with a special interest in the blade slinger.
Machete will be released September 3rd.
