Walking Dead writers fired !

articolul zice asa:

With the season finale of The Walking Dead coming this weekend and the show now firmly established as a huge rating success story - the show is the highest rated property ever to come from AMC - head honcho Frank Darabont has decided that what he needs to do to prepare for Season Two is to fire the entire writing staff. And, potentially, replace them with nobody (...) Word is that he intends to use freelancers when needed instead, and if he's going to continue having direct involvement in the writing process himself then that should be all that's really needed to maintain continuity.

si netul s-a cutremurat :)

mai multe amanunte aici...

iar aici se fac comparatii intre TWD si Lost...I'm all lost, astept episoul final de sezon unu, TS-19 duminica
+ sa nu uitam ca cel mai slab episod (#4, destul de unanime parerile, anume VATOS) a fost scris de Robert Kirkman, autorul comic-ului original. Si el a schimbat story-ul cu unul care nu e in carte. Iar Darabont a scris si rescris la greu. Si el e in charge. Iar sezonul 2, on the way, va avea 13 episoade, so get prepared 4 survival !

RIP Mario Monicelli

gee, ce zile ! Dupa Julien Guiomar si Ingrid Pitt, Leslie Nielsen si Irvin Kershner acum Mario Monicelli ! deh, avea 95 de ani dar era ok, a dat un interviu depre Dino De Laurentiis la Variety, si ultimul film l-a facut acum 2 ani ! Monicelli s-a sinucis, aruncindu-se de la balconul unui spital din Roma !, unde era tratat pentru cancer terminal.
"

Death doesn't frighten me, it bothers me. It bothers me for example that someone can be there tomorrow and but me I am no longer there. What bothers me is no longer being alive, not being dead.

"
(Monicelli, intr-un interviu din 2007 in Vanity Fair)
Leul de Aur penru intreaga cariera in 1991 la Venetia. A facut peste 60 de filme, satire si comedii, dintre care cel mai celebru este I Soliti Ignoti (Big Deal on Madonna Street-1959), cu doua continuari si cel putin 3 remakeuri de limba engleza (Crackers, Welcome to Collinwood, Palookaville). Apoi La Grande Guerra (1958) si seria Amici Miei cu Mastroianni Si Ugo Tognazzi.
La Stampa comenteaza: Monicelli's dramatic last scene

"Farewell to the master of Italian comedy", headlines La Stampa. Mario Monicelli, director of La Grande Guerra (The Great War - 1958) and I Soliti Ignoti (Big Deal on Madonna Street - 1959), killed himself by jumping from the 5th floor of a hospital in Rome. He was 95 and suffering from a terminal cancer. "In his final months, he embraced the protests against cuts to culture, encouraged young people to rebel for a better future, complained that the cinema of today could not talk about Italy as it is, but he couldn’t see a future for himself,” writes La Stampa. In a country where euthanasia is still taboo, his death was a final proclamation of freedom in an anarchic life. "He wanted to decide everything all by himself right to the end, as in his movies", commented critic Paolo Mereghetti to Corriere della Sera.

LMA sir Rid (again)!

despre Leslie Nielsen aflu din Adevarul de seara, prima oara cind aflu despre o moarte de actor din vreun ziar de acest tip. Pina la Airplane! (1980), Nielsen a fost actor de filme serioase (Forbidden Planet, The Poseidon Adventure) si tone de TV, apoi a devenit faimos ca erou de parodii, o serie nesfirsita, de la Naked Gun (from the files of police squad...)dupa serialul Police Squad , la cele si mai groase: Spy Hard, Dracula: Dead and Loving It, Mr. Magoo, Wrongfully Accused, Repossessed, 2001: A Space Travesty, siScary Movie 3 si 4. Avea 84 de ani (nascut 1926). Just Don't Call him Shirley :) !
