February 6th, 2011

The Walking Dead = Zombie Version of Lost

November 27th, 2010

I love this new show and didn’t think about the similarites.  If you haven’t watched The Walking Dead yet, I highly recomend that you check it out.  It’s so good that I was considering starting a blog about this show.

Hello Lost Friends!

November 9th, 2010

Have you forgotten about me yet?  Has the magic of The End faded?

I’ve only been able to watch the finale once since… the finale … and only because I had to blog.  I think I need therapy.  I just can’t bring myself to watch it again.  Maybe because I don’t want to admit it’s over.  I had a friend who passed many years ago and I still have her number in my phone.  Told ya I need some therapy.

Anyway, TV hasn’t been the same since May 23 but I did catch an amazing new show on AMC, The Walking Dead, and it makes me want to blog again.  Now that is some good TV!  Yes, it’s about zombies technically… but Lost was about survivors on an island so don’t be quick to judge.  Check it out, see what you think.  I’ll probably be dropping a few lines here about it too.  Not your typical TV fare which makes it extra special in my book.

Josh Hollway Is “Impossible”

September 29th, 2010

Yes, Josh is back and on the big screen!  He’s being cast by JJ for the new Mission Impossible film.  I can’t wait to see his acting chops on the big screen.  Let’s hope he gets a bigger part than Dominic did in Wolverine.

JJ Pitches Movie

August 23rd, 2010

This idea is so-so to me.  If JJ wants to give us seven minutes in heaven he could give us more Lost!

J.J. Abrams playing ‘7 Minutes in Heaven’

J.J. Abrams and the folks at Bad Robot have conquered the art of the high-concept pitch. According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision Blog, Abrams’ company has picked up an idea from Lost director Jack Bender that goes a little something like this: Two teens at a party play 7 Minutes in Heaven, and when they emerge from the closet, everyone else in the house is dead. I don’t have any idea who’s going to be in the movie, who will direct, or even a clue beyond that 21-word plot description, but I’m already digging into my wallet.

Anyone who’s seen Abrams’ trailers for Cloverfield and Super 8 knows he’s a master of the less-is-more approach, the I’m-not-sure-what-I-just saw-but-I-want-more school of salesmanship. His projects typically have a sharp hook, and just a taste of the story is often enough to reel in an audience. No wonder he’s a green-light machine.

Does the short pitch for 7 Minutes sound interesting to you? Does Abrams’ track record give you confidence that the result will deliver the goods?

Josh Back On TV?

August 21st, 2010

I’m tired of remakes, but if NBC would cast Josh Holloway in The Rockford Files I would probably watch just to see him!  Plus, we know that he’s an excellent actor.
