Hope you weren’t really counting on getting yourself one of those Pegasus 210s. In a sudden announcement made today, Dominic Wong and David Langton of Deloitte & Touche LLP were appointed as Joint Administrators of Rock Group Plc. In layman’s terms, that means those fellows will be attempting to achieve a sale of the now-defunct company. Reportedly, the failure of Rock is “partly attributed to the cash flow difficulties faced as a result of stock misappropriation by a former employee,” though further details were omitted. As it stands, the admins are currently negotiating with potential suitors in order to place the outfit in more capable hands, but there is still a possibility that no one will bite. For more information on how all of this could affect you (you know, things like warranties and whatnot), check out the full release in the read link below. ‘Tis a sad day folks — Rock is dead (at least for the moment).

Our cinema-obsessed sister-site got the low down on the next installment of the Fast and Furious franchise, and since the plot and character development (or lack thereof) will be predictable enough, Universal decided to drop the “Four” from the title, so the new flick will simply be known as “Fast and Furious.” But wait, there’s less. The plot synopsis involves everyone’s least-favorite tight-laced trooper, Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) and the smash-happy Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) reigniting their feud, but putting bad blood aside to defeat a “shared enemy.” The movie will take place in Los Angeles and Mexico, and despite his better angels, the film’s director Justin Lin is considering another installment before retiring the series. Fast and Furious is due to hit theaters June 5, 2009. Mark your calendars in anticipation, or avoidance.
