A True Canadian work of Art

2009-04-15T09:13:00.019-04:00

Two weeks ago, I saw the movie "One Week" at the theater. Starring Joshua Jackson ("Dawson's Creek","Fringe") and Liane Balaban, It's a movie about a man, whom dealing with the news of terminal cancer, decides to take a road trip through Ontario Canada, on his dream bike.

I had no real expectations before seeing this movie, and that may be part of the reason I had chosen to watch it. I wasn't in the mood for any box office winner and I had already seen most of the blockbusters. So I just picked up a ticket for the only movie in the list that I had not heard a single review on. And I'm glad that I chose this movie because I found it really beautiful, both visually and intellectually.
The movie has a "down-to-earth" feel to it, funny at times, and the depiction of the Ontarian region was as heartwarming as the scenery was beautiful.

Unfortunately, this movie is not the type of movies that reach high ranks in the box office. Most people will find it boring and won't see the movie simply because it's not action packed, it's very quiet and slow paced. The movie really makes you think about life, priorities and the bonds we form with people around us.

Ok, I will stop here, I don't want to spoil the movie for you.

Trust me, the trailer doesnt do it justice. It only shows one side of the movie.
I highly recommend this movie to everyone

Donna is back on 90210 !!

2009-04-13T10:37:00.009-04:00

Donna played by Tori Spelling is back on "90210" and if the little bird is right, she is here to stay (at least for the rest of the season).
She will make her "big" comeback on next episode entitled "Okaeri, Donna!", tomorrow April 14 on The CW. Other than Tori Spelling, we will have Oscar winner Screenwriter Diablo Cody making a guest appearance on this episode.

Official episode synopsis: Silver and Kelly receive an unexpected visit from Donna. Meanwhile, Dixon locates his biological mother and enlists Annie's help to go visit her. Also, Naomi's infatuation with Liam gradually increases.

And as you may already know, Dustin Milligan who is playing the attractive (CW's key casting characteristic) "Ethan" has been cast off/ fired/let go, or whatever the publicist said, from the show for undisclosed reasons.
Now this move doesn't really bother me, as I've always been indifferent to this character. Despite the omnipresence of "Ethan" on the show, I don't think that I will miss him much because his departure will beget more focus on other characters like "Dixon", "Kelly" or "Naomi" whom I'm starting to like more and more.

And oh, if by some twisted hand of fate (also known as the writing staff), Shenae Grimes ("Annie") happened to also leave 90210/Act less like a spoiled brat/become more interesting..., I may consider to forgive the CW for cancelling "Privileged".

Tori Spelling on her comeback to 90210

Happy Easter !!!

Melrose Place 2.0 News !

2009-04-07T18:54:00.005-04:00

This week bring us more exciting news on the upcoming Melrose Place, as we have 2 former regular cast members returning to the series:

Laura Leighton is returning to her role as "Sydney", the bad redhead who supposedly died in a car accident at the end of season 5. She will be the new landlord of the apartment complex.

I'm curious to see how the writers will make her come back from this carnage:

"Dr Michael Mancini" played by Thomas Calabro is back on TV !
The last time I saw him, it was on "Greek" as Rebecca logan's dad.

Melrose Place 2.0 (is it the official name ?) is more promising then ever with theses additions to the cast. Now can we please bring back Courtney Thorne-Smith (Allison) and Andrew Shue (Billy) to give more reasons to the fan to watch the show ? Or even better, wouldn't it be nice to just forget all the new actors, bring back everyone from the old show and take things where we left off ?

And one more thing (to the folks at CW and CBS): Now that the casting is almost closing and things are already official, don't you think that starting the promotion for the new show will be a good idea ?

"Fringe" is back tonight !

Derek's death forshadowed at Comic-Con

2009-04-05T16:04:00.002-04:00

At Comic-Con 2008, John Wirth (Producer of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) hinted that a regular cast member would die this season. We now know whom he was talking about: Derek. Did he really have to be killed off ? And if so, couldn't the writers make his death more spectacular ? I've always imagined his death to be more...let's say painful, with lots of blood after a fight to the death with a mean and merciless T-888. Not that I spend my evenings wandering around in my living room, thinking about a fictional character's demise or anything, but you get my point: Derek Reese deserved a greater termination.

The ABC tv show Lipstick Jungle is officialy cancelled. The channel released a statement this week, permanently sealing the fate of the show.
On the upside of things for the fans, the leading cast members are already signed as regulars on different upcoming shows such as "Inside The box" and "Eastwick".

Too bad because while being a great show (a point of vue obviously not shared by ABC executives), Lipstick Jungle also had the best looking promo pictures:

A piece of advice to 20th Century Fox: Next time, try CGI

2009-03-29T15:00:00.010-04:00

when I was younger Dragon Ball Z was my favorite manga (still is), written and illustrated by Akira Toriyama. I used to watch it on "Club Dorothée" every morning during the summer. My favorite character was Gohan, he was never really liked fighting but he always came through when his friends needed help. As for Vegeta, I loved him for the same reasons people dislike villains, he's arrogant, has no pity for the weak and he hates Goku with a passion.

Theme song (ps: I'm french, I didn't know any english before 10, so "DBZ" will always feel a bit weird to me in any other languages)

Dragon Ball Evolution trailer,
In theaters April 2009 (North America Release)

I've seen the movie and, well let's just say I died a little inside at various scenes.
From all the reviews out there, here are the words that best described my take on the movie:
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/dragonball-evolution

The reasons why so many people hated it may be the many differences between the movie and the anime, like Bulma' s hair or Piccolo's color. I also think that they (haters, bad reviewers,ME ?) might have forgotten that this is an adaptation from the manga, so changes are to be expected in the movie.
So please, don't let my point of vue discourage you from seeing this movie. This is coming from a guy who didn't think "Gigli" was that bad; so every fan (or non fan) should see it and form his own opinion on the matter.

Dollhouse- Season 1 episode 7: Echoes

2009-03-28T09:57:00.000-04:00

Echo goes undercover at a college to investigate a deadly virus outbreak.

Music from this episode:

"Portions For Foxes" by Rilo Kiley. Flashback to Echo/Caroline & her friends discussing Rossum Corporation
"Fantaisie-Impromptu In C-Sharp Minor, Op. 66" by Chopin. Boyd plays the piano
"Everything A Reason" by Carina Round. Adelle watches Echo on the monitors; Mellie tells Ballard she needs to get away for awhile

The amazing Zatanna- Smallville S08E17

2009-03-27T14:04:00.011-04:00

Besides "Bride" and "Legion", Yesterday's episode ("Hex") was one of the best episodes in which we have a fellow DC Comic character who decides to drop by Smallville. The beautiful magician Zatanna was played by Serinda Swan, you may or rather not remember her from that episode of Supernatural where demon Meg was after "the colt", killing John's friends in the way. She was the hospital receptionist,... still nothing ?. Anyway, in Smallville she was just like I had pictured Zatanna to be like in flesh, with the magic tricks and the intriguing personality that makes you wonder which side of the battle between evil and good she really does lean into.
I also liked the fact that the episode stayed true to the portrait of Zatanna in all of her aspects: her costume was quite accurate, the writers used her father's death as a back story to her character, and the icing on the cake (I hate that expression, but can't stop using it), casting spells by talking backwards.
It was about time that a not so popular from the "DC gang" made an appearance on the show and needless to say, it was a wonderful experience.

So thank you Alfred Gough, Miles Millar, Joe Shuster and all the writing team for that much underrated episode that only geeks like me would truly be grateful for.

Here is the entire episode: Smallville Season 8 episode 17, "Hex"

"Melrose Place 2.0" cast update

2009-03-26T19:15:00.001-04:00

Two more actors have recently been cast on the new Melrose Place:

Colin Egglesfield (remember him from All My Children, or not) is a newest addition to the cast of the new Melrose Place. He will play the role of Auggie, an avid surfer and sous-chef with ambitions to own a restaurant.

Stephanie Jacobsen is the second newbie. You'll probably remember her as the badass "Jesse" from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles or"Kendra Shaw" from Battlestar Galactica Razor. She will play Lauren, a med student at UCLA living a double life as a high-end call girl.

Uriel on Supernatural/ Uriel in "Hideaway"

2009-03-20T14:47:00.026-04:00

Castiel (Misha Collins) & Uriel (Robert Wisdom) Supernatural

This week's episode of "Supernatural" was full of surprises. One of them being the identity of the serial angel killer: "Uriel". I was a bit surprised but not really shocked about this, maybe because I didn't really like the character of Uriel on Supernatural. Uriel thought he was doing the right thing (they always do) by killing the angels and joining Lucifer to bring the apocalypse on Earth. In his last moments, he shared his doubts about the true agenda of God and wanted to "shake things up" in heaven. I also think that Christopher Heyerdahl,the actor playing the demon Alastair, was amazing in this episode.
Angels falling from grace all over again ? And Dean asked to stand up against the apocalypse ? The last episodes of Supernatural are going to be pretty interesting.

It wasn't the first time that I came across a portrait of the angel Uriel in fiction. He was also in Dean Koontz's book, "Hideaway", about a man who was telepathically connected to a serial killer after an accident that lead him to an 8 min coma. The movie was made about this book, and I hated the movie interpretation with such a passion. The story is a great depiction of Good versus Evil and the thin line that separates them.
I highly recommend this book to all supernatural and thriller fans.

Dollhouse/Angel filming set

Echo, wandering around the "Dollhouse"

Am I the only one feeling a bit curious about the uncanny resemblance between the set of Dollhouse and the set from the tv show Angel ? The offices of "Angel Investigations" and the main hall of the "Dollhouse" look exactly the same. Coincidence, I think not.

Jessica Lucas on Melrose Place 2.0

2009-03-18T13:24:00.003-04:00

The gorgeous Jessica Lucas (Undercover cop on the new 90210, Cloverfield) has been cast on the new Melrose Place remake from the CW. She will play the role of Riley Richmond, a 24 years old wealthy inner-city school teacher.
In addition to the regular cast of the remake, I would really like to see guest appearances from the old cast of Melrose Place. Wouldn't it be nice to see Aliison (Courtney Thorne-Smith ) or Dr Mancini (Thomas Calabro) drop by to check up on the new residents ?

The Amazing Jennifer Garner: Open letter to The Evil Beet

2009-03-17T00:19:00.004-04:00

Dear Evil Beet,

Thank you for making my study break a little bit brighter with your open letter to Jennifer Garner this monday. Someone named Wendie from the site wrote a wonderful note on the beautiful Jennifer Garner and how refreshing it is to see how down-to-earth and natural she looks on her every day life, which is different from the image we are used to seeing of hollywood.
Even though the usual numerized form of celebrity gossip is always a guilty pleasure, I wish magazines made articles like this more often.

The Bro Code from Barney Stinson

2009-03-15T09:32:00.004-04:00

Everyone's life is governed by an internal code of conduct, an historically spoken tradition passed from one generation to the next. Some call it morality. Others call it religion. But Bros in the know call this holy grail the Bro Code.

"Years ago, I set forth to compile and articulate the unspoken mores that exist between and among Bros the world over. While not intending to write a "Guide To Being a Bro," if men should treat it as such and choose to pass this compendium of knowledge from generation to generation, I have little doubt it would bring a tear to my eye… but not out of it - that would be a violation of..."

ARTICLE 77: "A Bro never cries."

The Bro Code is a living document - manifest in its 83 amendments - and as such is not yet publicly available in an unabridged volume. The original document is housed in a non-disclosed location, two stories beneath sea level in a vacuum-sealed bulletproof chamber. Re-printed here is a sampling of some of her articles. Learn. Live. Enjoy.

ARTICLE 26: "A bro will, in a timely manner, alert his bro to the existence of a girl fight." A Bro must never hesitate before communicating the possibility of fisticuffs between two humans of the female variety [[HENCEFORTH "GIRL FIGHT"]], in an effort to make possible and probable that another Bro or Bros can partake in observation. A timely manner is open to interpretation based on the initial Bro's viewing and processing of the potential feminine conflagration. Said Bro must use any and all methods of media distribution at his disposal, including but not limited to: telecommunications, elbow nudging, fiber optics, the Broney express, and postcards. If an informed Bro is unable to witness the girl fight firsthand, the spotter Bro is responsible for documenting and relating details of the girl fight via pictures, video*, or barring any other reasonable method, interpretive dance and/or pantomime. Tabling Bro obligations to witness a XX chromosomal scuffle is not only condoned, but encouraged, and in some cases, required. Please refer to the Brobligation rubric as elucidated in AMENDMENT 83: "The REALLY hot sister and other hump trumps." * SEE ZaBroder film

ARTICLE 53 "A Bro will, whenever possible, provide his Bro with protection." In the event that one Bro finds himself lacking the necessary prophylactic accoutrements needed to complete the act of coitus in a safe and effective manner, he is in the right to expect his Bro will use all measures within or without his means to provide the aforementioned prophylactic in a timely yet discreet fashion. When a Bro signals his need using previously agreed upon code words and/or body signage, it is understood that his Bro will discontinue all present activity [excepting the act of coitus itself [whereby which Bro vows to finish as quickly as possible]], in order to respond with a panoply of options at Bro-in-need's location. A Bro must patronize the most rapid method of transportation available while endeavoring to assist his Bro. In no instance may a two-wheeled bicycle be used* as this is not only humiliating, but also potentially harmful to the perineum - a zone of tissue perilously adjacent to noted sexual organs. In the event that a state, federal, international, or galactic law is breached due to recklessness, unacceptable levels of speed, and/or the hijacking of an airborne vehicle(s), it is understood that the primary Bro will shoulder any associated legal fees or fines. However, any costs or damages incurred from the use of public transportation are the responsibility of the secondary Bro alone as this is an instance of Quid Pro Bro. Upon arrival at the primary Bro's location, the secondary Bro must exercise complete discretion so as not to disrupt the primary Bro's "flow." It is understood that a Bro will engage in all training necessary to achieve this objective, including, at minimum, a five month Ninjitsu curriculum mastering the twin arts of stealth and secrecy.** Once the primary Bro has been supplied with the necessary prophylactic(s), the Brocedure is deemed complete upon exchange of the traditional, though in this case silent, "high five." Tacit in this unspoken ritual is the understanding that said episode will never be spoken of again, unless it's part of an awesome story. * Unless a bicycle is the ONLY form of transportation, as in some Cambodian villages ** SEE APPENDIX E: "List of approved ninja training facilities and dojos."

ARTICLE 89 "A Bro may never pursue the mom of another Bro." Be it here resolved that at no point is it permissible for one Bro to engage in carnal delicacies with another Bro's mother. It is, however, allowed and encouraged for one Bro to graphically suggest to a Bro the athletic feats, animalia, and/or machinery utilized during a fictional encounter with his mom. [[NOTA BENE: It is customary for a Bro to avoid such Brocularity if his Bro's mom is a 9 or better, for fear of Oedipal inducement.]] Should a Bro discover his Bro is in fact adopted, he is free to pursue his Bro's adoptive mother, but only after first corroborating non-biological parentage through notarized birth certificates, hospital records, or comparative dioxyribonucleic acid gel electrophoresis, whichever is easiest. Since the adopted Bro cannot legitimately claim to have shared a canal with his Bro, ARTICLE 89 expressly prohibits the adopted Bro from invoking the Sloppy Second clause in any related filings with the International Court of Bros. Though the mom of a Bro is always off limits, the step-mom of a Bro is allowed if she initiates it and/or is wearing at least one article of leopard print clothing. If she looks good in it.

The Girl Who Silenced The World at the UN

2009-03-15T03:52:00.005-04:00

This is a speech from 12 year old Severn Suzuki at the United Nations Earth Summit in june 1992, incriminating all first world countries for their disregard for the future of the planet.

"At school, even in kindergarten, you teach us to behave in the world. You teach us
not tofight with others
to work things out,
to respect others,
to clean up our mess,
not to hurt other creatures
to share - not be greedy
Then why do you go out and do the things you tell us not to do?"

My 100th post

2009-03-14T09:47:00.005-04:00

I first started this blog on february 1, 2009, and today it's my 100th post, all in one month and a half, if I might add. How awesome is that ? So to celebrate this meaningless achievement, I'm going to reveal 36 random things about my 2nd favorite person on earth, ME.
I initially thought about doing 100 things but I got bored after a while, it's usually more interesting to talk about tv shows.

1. Bruce Springsteen released the song "Born in the USA" the day I was born, ho1 cool is that ?!

2. I'm afraid of heights but I love roller coasters.

3. I like both PC and MAC (Ok I admit, I do like PC a tiny bit more than mac)

4. I sleep 7 hours a day, most of the time

5. I believe that "Acme Corporation" is deliberately sabotaging Coyote's plans by sending him defective devices.

6. I like both winter and summer equally.

7. I'm fluent in 3 languages and I know curses from a lot of languages.

8. I eat everything, except "Jello".

9. All my favorite tv shows are cancelled, or will be by the end of june :(

10. I shower 3 times a day.

11. I volunteer for UNICEF at least a month each summer because I like to travel and see places of the world that aren't showed on postcards.

12. I'm really good at searching for things via "Google".

13. I suck at "Guitar Hero".

14. I love "chick flicks" no matter how repetitive and full of clichés some stories might be, and I'm slightly not ashamed to admit it.

15. I have a crush on Amber Tamblyn, I think she's a great actress and human being.

16. I own more shoes than my girlfriend does.

17. I have 2 younger sisters.

18. I have 2 passeports.

19. I'll be done with my 3rd university degree by the end of 2009.

20. I've never had a real job in my life (my resume is full of volunteering gigs and irrelevant past-times).

21. I don't "twitter".

22. I haven't changed my "Facebook status" in months.

23. I cried a little when "Veronica Mars" was cancelled.

24. I never liked "Jess" from the tv show "Gilmore Girls".

25. I've never watched "The godfather", even though I have the DVDs.

26. I know nearly all the lines from "Remember the titans".

27. I have a calendar in which I insert birthdays of everyone I know. I hope that someday, the calendar will be full of birthdays so that I'll have a reason to celebrate everyday.

28. Ellen Degeneres is my favorite talk show host.

29. My favorite colors are blue, white and black.

30. I play soccer

31. I can play the flute (I wish I knew how to play the piano, guitar or other cooler instrument)

32. I find it very egocentric of earthlings to think that they are the only race in the universe.

33. I drive a prius.

34. I love the smell of new CDs

35. I love how arduous it is to open a new CD.

36. I watched "Twilight" today for the first time, I liked it.

Britney Spears- If You Seek Amy

2009-03-14T05:58:00.003-04:00

This is wrong on so many levels, but gotta love Britney for sparking controversy all over the medias. The implied meaning of the lyrics might be too obscene for little tweens, and I'm pretty sure parents everywhere are going nuts about this, but the aspiring adult in me is really enjoying Britney's new album.

Doctor George Smoot on "The Big Bang Theory"

2009-03-13T12:51:00.000-04:00

From Season 2 episode 17 : The Terminator Decoupling

We've all been aware of Summer Glau (The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Serenity) guest appearance on The Big Bang Theory, months before this episode. It was all over the tv news and the promo shots from CBS, but what surprised me is that up until watching the said episode I had no idea that George Smoot, a noble prize winner, would be on the show.
It's funny how most people were excited to see "Cameron" but one of the best cosmology theorists managed to stay "under the radar"...

The Big Bang Theory- Sheldon's quotes

2009-03-13T12:40:00.000-04:00

"Well, today we tried masturbating for money." (S01E1)

"There's always the possibility that alcohol and poor judgment on her part might lead to a nice romantic evening." (S01E3)

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to watch the Clone Wars TV series until I've seen the Clone Wars movie. I prefer to let George Lucas disappoint me in the order he intended." (S02E8)

"Oh, well, this would be one of those circumstances that people unfamiliar with the law of large numbers would call a coincidence." (S01)

"I'm not insane! My mother had me tested!"

Shonda Rimes new tv show : "Inside the Box"

2009-03-11T03:05:00.011-04:00

Grey's Anatomy's creator Shonda Rhimes is behind this new show "Inside the Box", about an ambitious female producer at a Washington news bureau. The series is being produced by ABC Studios, Shonda Rhimes and written by former ABC News producer Richard E. Robbins.
So far the main cast members signed on this project are:

Indira Varma (Rome, Bones- First episode of season 4) will star as Catherine, a fast-talking, whip-smart and ambitious news producer.

Kim Raver (Lipstick Jungle, 24, Third Watch) will play Samantha, a "knockout blond reporter who once was considered the next Diane Sawyer". So what does this casting move by ABC mean for Lipstick Jungle ?, the tv show still in hiatus is losing more and more cast members. With Lindsay Price being signed on "Eastwick", there is little hope for the renewal of the show :(

Sarah Drew (Everwood, Daria) will play an hopeful low-level employee.

Jason George (Eli Stone, What About Brian) will play an on-air reporter and correspondent.

Martin Henderson (Smokin' Aces, Bride and Prejudice) will play Catherine's on and off again boyfriend and male co-worker.

Jennifer Finnigan (Close to Home, The Bold and Beautiful) will play a White House press secretary.

Lloyd Owen (Viva Laughlin) is rumoured to play the incoming bureau chief at the news station.

Ashley Simpson Wentz on Melrose Place 2.0

2009-03-10T07:20:00.000-04:00

Ashley Simpson Wentz is the newest resident of Melrose Place. She will play the role of "Violet", a small town girl who might be hiding a calculating, shrewd sex kitten personality.
I'm really surprised by this choice from the execs at CW, Ashley was ok in "7th Heaven" but she isn't really my first pick for this role. I think Lizzy Caplan or Sarah Carter would have been great for this part, but anyway I guess I'll just have to put my faith in the people behind the show (no sarcasm intended).
The new "Melrose Place" will air on the CW, fall 2009.

Battlestar Galactica- Great Season 3 ending

2009-03-10T03:43:00.006-04:00

This is in my opinion, one of the greatest season ending in television.

Season 3 episode 20: "Crossroads part 2"

"My name is Saul Tigh. I'm an officer in the Colonial Fleet. Whatever else I am, whatever else it means, that's the man I want to be. And if I die today, that's the man I'll be."

Smallville "Tremendous" Season finale

2009-03-08T08:00:00.009-04:00

Major Spoiler !!

Something dark this way come , something maybe even darker than the awaited comeback of Lex Luthor. Two of our beloved Smallville citizens are reported to "kick the bucket" at the end of this season, and more precisely during the final episode on May 14, 2009. Furthermore, it seems that one of the characters targeted by Death (Who also goes by the name of "writing staff") is a regular cast member. Several sources confirmed this news and even added that the two deaths will be permanent (no surprise visit from the dead or flashbacks). Accordingly, the actors hadn't been signed on for the next season.

Here are my picks for "Most likely to meet a certain demise on May 14":

Tess Mercer (I'm sensing a gruesome encounter with the Grim Reaper)

Lana Lang (If the writers are staying true to the comics, she isn't going to croak
- i.e, I just wanted to post Kristen in that dress)

Chloe Sullivan (My guess: she will fall by an heroic attempt to save Clark's life)
Allison Mack being my favorite from the cast, the writers had better deliver on the "superman plot" promesses if Chloe dies.

PS: As the end of the season approches, there will be more spoilers than ever on the net, however I won't post any because I simply don't want to know more about the outcome before I watch the rest of the season.

How I met your mother ?

2009-03-05T11:52:00.004-05:00

Major Spoilers !!

The little internet bird whispered in my ears some sweet sweet tunes about one of my favorite tv shows that is still on air (All my loved series get prematurely cancelled-it's a curse).
A lot of sources are reporting that by the end of this season of "How I met your mother", some light will be shed on the identity of the mother . It seems that the news originated from Carter Bays, co-creator of the tv show:

"At the end of the season, we will address the title of our show," reveals Bays, adding that the last four episodes will feature "big events in the lives of our characters -- specifically Ted (Josh Radnor). We're going to wrap up some things that have been left dangling."

However I remain skeptical about what everybody seems to be drawing from that special piece of information. Will the identity of the mother be revealed ? I think not, because this news can become the answer to the main question of the show and a possible conclusion.
Then again, the writers might have concocted a pretty interesting follow-up for next season.

Only time and internet gossip will tell...

Until then, here are the two hit singles from Robin Sparkles :
