Not content with owning last weekend's box office at theaters, the makers of Get Smart want all your DVD dollars as well. That's why July 1st sees the release of Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control, a feature-length DVD spin-off starring Control's top tech guys as they try to save the world so that Steve Carrell's Maxwell Smart can... save the world. Again. We spoke to the stars of the spin-off, Masi Oka and Nate Torrence, about gadgets, franchises and unexpected appearances in other movies. Oh, alright, and we asked a question about Heroes as well. More »

He's the guy in charge of all the online shenanigans supporting NBC's Heroes, which now goes by the name of Heroes: Evolution.

Heroes Does the Cross-Temporal Sex Dance
