The Top Ten Sci-Fi Films That Never Existed
2008-04-13 01:48:00 10. The "Real" Alien 31992, Directed by, oh, let's say Ridley Scott The most excited I've ever been to see a movie ever in my life was the moment I saw the first Alien 3 "teaser" trailer in 1991 (teasers are shot well before the movie itself is finished filming). It's the one that promised the aliens were coming to freaking Earth. No, I didn't dream it. They really did show that trailer (they even have a copy of it HERE), sending it to theaters before they had even started production, before they had even picked a script. Visions of awesomeness flashed through my head, a Blade Runner-ish Earth with sprawling, filthy buildings, huge flashing billboards with giant Asian women on them, beat-up flying cars whooshing by and steam always rising from the streets for some reason. And then the aliens start breeding in the miles of dank sewers that tangle under the bustling streets, the creatures boiling up out of manholes by the hundreds, cut to pieces by Marines with pulse rifles a...

Livin' on a Prayer: Bon Jovi Guitarist DUI plus, a Salute to the 5 Worst Bo
2008-03-28 14:00:00 In the spirit of kickin' 'em when they're down, we thought we'd lace 'em up and give a solid punt to the arse of everyone's favorite crap-rock poster boys, Bon Jovi in this, another of our 'music and booze-themed' postings.'Jovi Guitarist Ritchie Sambora, pictured here, and looking in decidedly poorer shape than ex squeeze Heather Lochlear was recently arrested for DUI in Laguna Beach California. So, to honor the band, and also in the spirit of celebrating the worst of everything, we've decided to put together a tribute, of sorts, to Bon Jovi, the world?s most famous Bruce Springsteen tribute band.Early on in their career as Bruce, they discovered that their slice of the bar receipts pie was wafer thin (to mix food metaphors) and that they should ditch their E Street Band and streamline their line-up to the dismal arena wimp-rock quartet that you see today.This was after the unceremonious booting of bass player Alec John Such, because he ?couldn?t play his instrument??a r...

The Top 10 Coolest Bartenders of All Time (Part 2)
2008-02-29 15:00:00 As we noted in Part One of the Top 10 Coolest Bartenders of All Time, bartenders in films and TV, if they?re given any face time at all, are lucky if they get their day?s studio parking validated for uttering ?I think you best see yer friend outta here? and wrenching a highball glass from the masturbatory grip of the protagonist, who is then propped up by his buddies and shuffled out the door while ugly looks are exchanged. More commonly, they get to tell some beat cop holding up a police sketch ?Yeh, dat?s da guy? he was in here last week?, or are made to dive for cover to avoid shards of glass from the explosion of cheap bottles of booze whenever some vigilante cowboy/mobster/trucker psychopath shoots up the place.This list is our effort to ensure that the unheralded film/TV bartender is remembered for something other than smacking a beer bottle off the odd noggin in the midst of a saloon brawl, or being a silent captive audience (at least until last call) forced to listen to wha...

The Top 10 Coolest Bartenders of All Time (Part 1)
2008-02-27 15:00:00 Hollywood, not surprisingly, has introduced us to some truly memorable drunks ? think Billy Bob Thornton in "Bad Santa", or, far creepier and more likely to cause you to wake yourself up screaming, Gary Busey in "Carny".But what of the men and women on the other side of the bar, patiently stomaching the hero?s bravado and slinging the drinks that fuel his adventures (real-life versions of which we chronicled in our book)? Bartenders are often left out of the spotlight, a point most clearly made by the fact that they are often not even given a name in film credits. Julian Lennon, for example, may have played alongside Nicholas Cage in Leaving Las Vegas, but to the world he will remain ?Bartender # 3 in Biker Bar?.We have attempted here to rectify that wrong somewhat and turn the spotlight on the profession of bartending with our ?Top 10 Coolest Fictional Bartenders of All Time?. We offer this as a tip of sorts to all of the bartenders who have served us drinks in the past and been mi...

2007-04-15 14:31:00 Filed under: Action & Adventure, Deals, New Releases, Critical Thought & Trends, Box Office, Fandom, Exhibition, The Weinstein Co., Newsstand, Quentin TarantinoDepending on which source you believe -- there's about a ten-thousand dollar difference -- Grindhouse is either holding onto the tenth spot for the weekend or it has slipped into eleventh place, behind Wild Hogs. With Friday estimates included, the film's total cume is $16.7 million; that gives it a second-weekend drop of 74%, which is just terrible any way you slice it. The per-screen average for the film is $494, which as Deadline Hollywood points out, means its "playing in near-empty theaters." If these numbers hold for Saturday, then more Americans will have turned out this weekend to see Redline, which is a movie I never gave a moment's thought to until I had to edit a review that someone did for this website yesterday, than Grindhouse, which arrived in theaters with major advertising campaign fully supported ...
