Fikaked: Daily!
Monday, June 8, 2009
- Weekend Box Office: Seems The Hangover did fantastic, the marketing gurus couldn't make Land of the Lost look anything but really stupid, and
neither one of them could take out Up as #1. Entertainment Weekly is now reporting that the final weekend tally actually has Hangover taking the top slot. - Chris Nashawaty is taking this opportunity to kick Ferrell while he's down. What, exactly, was not hilarious about Step Brothers?
- Jay-Z just released a new track called "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)". Evidently, like a lot of people, HOVA isn't a fan of of the pitch-correcting software, which is interesting since his boy Kanye just released an album full of Auto-Tuned tracks about 6 months ago.
Not sure if this will be on The Blueprint 3According to Pitchfork, it will in fact be on The Blueprint 3, which is due out in September:
- In the summer's biggest train-wreck so far, I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, "Speidi" have managed to create a pretty impressive spectacle, and it's kinda hard to turn away. According to EW, Heidi has actually been checked into a Costa Rican hospital after spending the night in some sort of torture chamber, a punishment for trying to leave the show (and then begging to be brought back).
- Over @ The A.V. Club: 27 Ridiculous Yet Entertaining Pop Culture Fights. Does anything else need to be said?
- Surprise! Idol winner Kris Allen has signed to Jive Records. You can't tell me that Adam Lambert isn't breathing a sigh of relief right now.
- Half-Blood Prince might be delayed in IMAX theaters for a couple weeks because of an exclusive deal featuring Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, which will feature several IMAX-only action sequences. Booyah! I can wait an extra two weeks for another installment of Potter-mania.
- Some general possibly-in-the-works excitement: Anchorman 2 & possibly two new 'Sherlock Holmes' flicks, a new 'Robin Hood' franchise that involves Ridley Scott & Russell Crowe, Ghostbusters 3, and a Short-Circuit remake.
- Tonight: The season premiere of Weeds, I'm a Celebrity... and Jon & Kate Plus 8 overkill continues, Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives does "American Classics" and "Family Favorites" on the Food Network, The History Channel is running a special on the history of 'hillbillies', Conan has David Duchovny & comedian Bill Burr on the Tonight Show, and Jimmy Fallon's got Kelly Ripa & Mark-Paul Gosselaar coming on Late Night.
Pardon the mess; this thing is a work in progress...
