Grand Theft Auto 5 versus Lindsay Lohan: the results are in 

It's over. The Mean Girls star turned meme has lost her appeal after a judge decided that Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive Software hadn't invaded her privacy with the allegedly Lohan-like character Lacey Jonas in GTA 5.

 Netflix gets Cursed 

If you love The Dark Knight Returns, Sin City, and 300, you might want to make sure your mom doesn't change her Netflix account password anytime soon. Netflix just ordered a series from those comics' creator, Frank Miller, based on a new YA novel called Cursed. It's "a re-imagining of the Arthurian legend, told through the eyes of Nimue, a teenage heroine with a mysterious gift who is destined to become the powerful (and tragic) Lady of the Lake."
