    Halloween - Everywhere

    Candy corn + jack-o'-lanterns + wax vampire teeth + slutty French-maid outfits that somehow (please, God) never seem to go out of Halloween style = $5.1 billion in retail spending. Boo! -- JC

    Tinker Bell - DVD Stores

    Once just a flitty supporting act, Tinker Bell will kick off the Disney Fairies franchise with her eponymous film. The movie, about pre -- Peter Pan life, features new pixies, including one voiced by Lucy Liu. Disney will release one straight-to-DVD episode each year until the quadrilogy is done. In an apparent concession to those crazy, quality-obsessed Pixar folks, it will then quit making direct-to-DVD toons, which are bad ("dreck-to-DVD") but good (the two Aladdin sequels alone grossed more than $300 million). So much for Cinderella IV. -- JLA

    Fresh Summit - Orlando

    Based on the speakers, it's hard to tell if this four-day conclave, allegedly focused on produce, is really about watermelons or widgets. Former GE CEO Jack Welch (favorite fruit and veg: raspberries, asparagus, and green beans) will talk about cultivating talent; ex-Harley brand guru Ken Schmidt (grapes and broccoli) recounts his rehab of the hog maker's image; and onetime Pentagon spokeswoman Torie Clarke dishes on the death of spin. And bananas: "There's a game in my family where we say, If you could go to a desert island and could take only one food, what would it be?" Clarke says.
