Shameless : Behind the Scenes: Shameless Season 3 Sneak Peek (VIDEO) #1

Emmy Rossum, who plays the most-awesome oldest daughter "Fiona Gallagher", brings us up-to-speed with the 3-4 months that has elapsed since last we checked in on our favourite South-side Chicago family. First of all, the Gallagher 'family' has expanded by two (and is about to add one more(!). Fiona's gotten her GED so the world should be her oyster, right?  She might disagree. Jimmy/Steve has become a stay-at-home surrogate dad which should be a great opportunity for Fiona to get out of the house more...but seems to be having mixed results (something about a man with a mop?). Frank has been MIA for months and only Debs is concerned for him, and --no surprise--Veronica and Kevin are up to some new kinky endeavors. You have to tune into Shameless on Sunday to see it and believe it. And seriously, it's the middle of winter in Chicago, couldn't you use a good laugh?

Update! Dexter Early Cuts: All In The Family Trailer - 2 NEW Dexter Teases - My Dark Passenger EXPOSED (VIDEO) @SHO_Dexter @SHO_Kareem

Dexter and Deb in a new series of 'The Early Cuts'

 

Family that slays together stays together - VIDEO:

The animated webisode series returns this summer. Illustrations by David Mack. Written by Scott Reynolds.

Deb watches Dexter take off in Dexter: The Early Cuts (Showtime Summer 2012)

The year is 2000:

Dexter speaks in voice-over about prostitute killings being low-priority police matters over a montage of a bloody slashing/slayings. In his job with Miami Metro as Dexter Morgan, blood-spatter analyst, he finds opportunity to look more closely at the case for clues. He finds a pattern to the location of the homicides ('a star') and decides to attempt an intervention before the next one occurs.

Dexter voice-over: 'The family that slays together, stays together' followed by a long, regretful shot at a puzzled-looking teenage Debra.

'The father', Dexter intones as he determines 'who' is driving the son to kill.'

Oh, the symbolism! Dexter didn't see it as it pertains to his own family back then. Will he though, in the present time, now that Deb knows of his Dark Passenger begin to understand the many pieces that went into the puzzle of what made Dexter Morgan a serial killer? Will Dexter's own little family stay together and if so, how?

 My Dark Passenger Exposed (Dexter Spot) VIDEO:

Published on Jul 9, 2012 by SHOWTIME (VIDEO):

The following (borderline erotic) teasers feature the “siblings” writhing around separately (and suggestively) on a black bed, while Dexter’s signature voiceover ponders what’s to come. Will Deb learn to accept his true identity (“I found a way to live with my secret, but I never had a choice… Does she?”)? Or will he have to take deadly drastic measures to protect himself (“The only thing worse than not knowing what she’ll do is not knowing what I’ll do.”)?

SOURCE: Ausiello

These two promo clips for season 8 Dexter are disturbing on several levels, including erotic. It was said that they were gonna deal with the 'Deb is in love with her brother' story more in season 8 so...there you go. Shouldn't complicate a hugely complicated situation at all. I'm sure.

On second thought, it could be wound up pretty quickly via the oft-used trope of 'let's just do this' and get it over with--and then the sexual tension will be gone. That could end a lot of ways but there's one big hurdle, Dexter's high moral code would probably prevent him from doing Deb--ever. She sees him sexually, she thinks. He has never thought of her 'that way.' Given the stuff that went down in the season 6 finale and that on his best day, Dex is not exactly 'studly,' I doubt that sexual activity of any kind witll be on his 'to-do' list.

 Dexter returns for season 7 Sunday, September 30 at 9 PM ET/PT.

 What Happens Next? (Dexter Spot) VIDEO:

Of the two new Dexter Spots, "My Dark Passenger" and 'What Happens Next?', 'What Happens Next'could be anthems for both Dexter and Deb in season 7 DEXTER as they take stock of What Happened and What Are they Going To Do (about it). Meanwhile, I'm assuming that as much as it ever was--on steroids(!) it will have to be 'business as usual' for the sibs at Miami Metro. It's not like crime is going to just stop now that the serial murderer's, murderer has been discovered by Deb to be  her bro, Dexter. But bonus(!) Dex helped Deb solve a case she didn't even know she had! 

It's going to be a crazy mother-effing season 7 of a final 8 so there is very little to lose by taking risks with the writing.  I think the season that begins Sept 30 on Showtime may be getting more far out in some ways than ever before. Why not? It could be fun! Very fun! Finish DEXTER and go out balls to the wall...with a question mark...

Johnny Depp 'Rango' MTV Interview: The Actor Stays in His Comfort Zone with Director Verbinski

Johnny Depp is one of those actors who disappear so fully into the characters he plays onscreen that with each new film, it's hard to know what to expect from the Oscar nominee. Depp's latest, the animated pic "Rango," is no exception. In the film — directed by Depp's "Pirates of the Caribbean" director Gore Verbinski and featuring the vocal talents of Abigail Breslin, Isla Fischer and Bill Nighy — Depp plays the title character, a chameleon living a lonely life in a cage as a family pet. But Rango is also an aspiring actor so he stages elaborate plays within the confines of his little glass home. He suddenly finds his life turned upside down when his cage is accidentally thrown out of his owners' car during a cross-country move, landing him in the strange town of Dirt in the Nevada desert. MTV News caught up with Depp and we asked him if, given his chameleon-like abilities as an actor, he felt a sense of kinship with the little green reptile, and whether Rango is perhaps the closest he's come to playing himself. "What I saw early on with the character, and something that Gore and I talked about, is that it is in sort of all of us, in a way," Depp explained. "There is a chameleonic side to all of us in which we find ourselves in certain situations that you have to adapt to, sitting across from personalities that you have to adapt to in order to survive the moment or survive the day," he said. "That's kind of how I saw Rango."

NEW Dexter 'Early Cuts' Web Series Just Released!

The animated web series DEXTER Early Cuts is a sort of prequel to the Showtime series Dexter.  

Though you don't have to watch the Dexter "Early Cuts" webisodes to enjoy Dexter on Showtime, watching them will enhance your understanding of how Dexter came to be the serial killer we know and love, while convincing you how perfectly suited to a comic book series Dexter is.

I've read many comic books and I truly appreciate the quality of the renderings in this series which I  watched all in one sitting. You can do the same by scrolling down this page where you'll find Episodes 1 through 6. Enjoy!

About the series:

Dexter Morgan is challenged by a copy-cat killer who does not follow any sort of code. The story opens immediately after his father Harry's death, with Dexter in his early twenties and his sister Debra still in high school.  Dexter is enrolled in medical school where he's studying anatomy to improve his "craft."  During a routine kill, Dexter realizes that another student has been spying on him and knows that he is a serial killer. He confronts the student after he begins to commit murders in Dexter's style and the two clash over the ethics of their situations.  Dexter's faceoff with his 'Dark Echo' represents the first time his code is tested since his father's death, and the incident helps reinforce the importance of Harry Morgan's code.

 

DEXTER Early Cuts is illustrated by Emmy Award nominee Bill Sienkiewicz (“Batman,” “Superman” and “X-Men” comics) and acclaimed comic book illustrator David Mack (Marvel Comics’ “Daredevil” and “Kabuki) and voiced by DEXTER star and executive producer Michael C. Hall. The episodes will also be available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND.

Toy Story 3: Buttercup Audition

Toystory | July 23, 2010

With the ToyStory 3: Buttercup Audition video, I believe that Disney Pixar has tapped out the Toy Story 3 fountain of wonderfulness. The Buttercup video is incredibly short and utterly meh. Judge for yourself. (I still love Disney-Pixar, tho'.)

The creators of the beloved Toy Story films re-open the toy box and bring moviegoers back to the delightful world of Woody, Buzz and our favorite gang of toy characters in TOY STORY 3. Woody and Buzz had accepted that their owner Andy would grow up someday, but what happens when that day arrives?

Argh! I finally watched the "Rango' preview but got caught up in the "Actor's Studio Interview With Johnny Depp." One of the first queries was "How do you go about choosing a role?" Depp's answer was that the part needed to be "surprising." Does Johnny Depp as a animated lizard surprise you? It does me. Looking forward to it!

Toy Story 3 - Tea Party

Toystory | July 01, 2010

The videos just keep coming for Toy Story 3.

I read my first sort of middling review of Toy Story 3 today. The reviewer waxed on about how the Toy Story franchise has always being about life and death and loss, etc. but took issue with Toy Story 3's lame getaway from the daycare facility sequence. He did however really enjoy the parts where the toys, having "escaped" on a garbage truck went through the giant sorting machines and then almost got incinerated. Also, he worried that kid's movies were not for kids anymore. I have to totally disagree with that assessment.There has long been "kid's movies" that have a layer for the adults that the kiddies do not grasp.The cool thing is if the movies stand the test of time, they can be re-watched with a new eye--and level of appreciation.

Toy Story 3 - Bathroom Escape

Toystory | July 02, 2010

OK. So judge for yourself how "lame" you think the getaway sequence is, as Disney-Pixar has now posted it and yet another Toy Story 3 video.

The creators of the beloved Toy Story films re-open the toy box and bring moviegoers back to the delightful world of Woody, Buzz and our favorite gang of toy characters in TOY STORY 3. Woody and Buzz had accepted that their owner Andy would grow up someday, but what happens when that day arrives?

Hell Yeah, Toy Story 3!

My spouse's 49 th birthday (again) is on Friday and being the Disney-Pixar fanatics we are we (my son and I) decided that what he wanted was to see is Toy Story 3. IMO, what is just as fun and fascinating about the creative genius of a finished Disney-Pixar project is what the creators were going for when they dreamed up what (or perhaps more properly, "who") came to end up on the screen. In a recent NYTimes online interview with Toy Story 3's director Lee Unkrich, who has been with the Toy Story franchise since the beginning, he explains the painstaking process of choosing a new character--and there are 14 added this time to the original 12 (my fave original, hands down--Mr. Potato Head) reminds me of how the Disney "Imagineers" explain how they do what they do. A common theme is that they retain the ability to see the world through the eyes of a child. It's something that adults either get or do not because generally we are discouraged by the world at large to allow our imaginations to exist unfettered and so we give up our childish things. We are the same people who no matter what our age get tremendously excited at the prospect of several days in Disneyland. I'm missing my family trips to the Land of the Mouse for a few years whilst my son is in college however Toy Story 3 will help bridge the gap between everyday reality and the world of Disney-(Pixar).

From: To the Second Sequel, and Beyond!

Choosing "Ken"

Since he liked the appearance of Barbie in “Toy Story 2,” Mr. Unkrich was interested in having her be a part of the new film. “Then very quickly on the heels of that decision, we thought well, if we have Barbie, we had to have Ken,” he said. “I literally went through the catalog of every Ken from the ’60s to now and looked at them all. And the one that absolutely stood out for me is this one Ken from the late ’80s called Animal Lovin’ Ken.” The safari-print shirt and short shorts are part of the exact outfit from that particular version of Ken. Naturally, he has frequent costume changes throughout the film, allowing the filmmakers to snatch clothing designs from his history. “We could have made up outfits,” Mr. Unkrich said, “but I don’t think we could have come up with anything as outlandish or as garish as the real outfits that have existed over the years.”
