How Well Do You Know “American” TV?

Posted by Synidcated in All Gossip on July 3rd, 2008 |  No Comments »


With the 4th of July weekend upon us, I got to thinking about all the TV shows that search for America's best. In recent years, we've turned to television to find some of our hottest singers, greatest inventors, young talents, and even cute dogs.

It's not that reality TV is necessarily an American thing (just check out all those wacky Japanese game shows for proof). But American networks took to the genre with vigor. So, in honor of Independence Day, I've put together a quiz all about reality shows with "America" or "American" in the name. How well do you know this intersection of entertainment and national pride? Good luck!

The Pregnant Man on Oprah

Movie Preview: The Day the Earth Stood Still

Posted by Synidcated in All Gossip on July 3rd, 2008 |  No Comments »

The modern remake of the 1951 sci-fi film The Day the Earth Stood Still attempts to update the older version, shifting its themes from Cold War political tension and the threat of human violence to the imminence of environmental retaliation from an abused Earth. Keanu Reeves, who plays the protagonist in this new version, explains:

The first one was borne out of the cold war and nuclear détente. Klaatu came and was saying cease and desist with your violence. If you can’t do it yourselves we’re going to do it. That was the film of that day. The version I was just working on, instead of being man against man, it’s more about man against nature. My Klaatu says that if the Earth dies, you die. If you die, the earth survives. I’m a friend to the earth.

The movie joins a few other recent films with possibly green messages. This one, with its apocalyptic setting, also stars Jennifer Connolly, Will Smith's kid Jaden, and Mad Men's Jon Hamm. I love most of the cast (though not all of it), but I don't know how I feel about the trailer for this one; it's just not pulling me in. The Day the Earth Stood Still opens December 12. To check out the trailer,
