Off The Record...

Matthew Good Band

Beautiful Midnight

The follow up to their smash success Underdogs, The Matthew Good Band show no signs of slowing the hook laden music that garnered 4 hit singles in the past year.  The initial release, Hello Time Bomb, is a good example of the rest of the disc, catchy on the first listen, with deep lyrics that can belie the fact that the songs are fun to hear.  MGB hasn’t lost any momentum, look for this to be one of the big albums of the year.

 

At The Movies...

Outside Providence
Timothy Dunphy is perfectly happy living the slacker life in his broken home with his three-legged dog in the blue-collar town of Pawtucket, Rhode Island.  His father however, is not happy with Timothy's loser friends and troublemaking escapades.  When Timothy crashes into a parked police car, his father decides it's time for him to
shape up, so he ships him off to prep school.  What he learns in this elite private school would make his working class dad shudder.  Outside Providence is that rare cinematic treat of human insight wrapped in laughter.  There is something about Outside Providence.  Find out for yourself.

On Video...

Forces Of Nature
Everything seems to be getting in the way of button-down copy writer Ben Affleck's road to marriage.  First his grandfather suffers a heart attack at the groom's bachelor party, his airplane flight to the wedding crashes, and then he gets teamed up with a free-spirited woman (Sandra Bullock), making his trek to the altar that more difficult.  Will their romance blossom or will he get to the church on time?  A pleasant, if not remarkable, comedy outing.


The Buzz...

Expect the Buffy the Vampire Slayer soundtrack in stores Oct. 19, just in time for your Halloween party.

 

Voyager might be reworked to appeal to a broader audience and fit into a CBS timeslot, marking the first time a Star Trek series would be on a broadcast network since the original series first aired on NBC in the late '60s.  Jeri Ryan will be back in full Borg gear. 

 

Heat magazine chose Mike Myers as its top resident of its Hot 100 list of popular people, chosen by entertainment industry figures and the magazine's own readers.

 

Power Rangers toys are the best-selling action figures of the decade.  So says toymaker Saban Entertainment, which claims the action figures broke $1 billion sales figure on Tuesday.  That puts them ahead of Star Wars, Transformers, G.I. Joes and WWF and WCW figures throughout the period 1990-1999. 

 

The special effects in Mission Impossible 2 may bear a resemblance to those in The Matrix.  Manex, the same San Francisco-based FX house that worked on the Keanu Reeves’ sci fi thriller, will do MI2.

 

Lucy Lawless will join Mel Gibson as the celebrity guest stars in this year’s season premier of The Simpsons.  She will be appearing both as herself and Xena: Warrior Princess.  The storyline involves Homer landing a job as an advisor for a violent remake of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.  Fox will air the premier September 26th.

 

DC Comics stands to lose half the rights to Superman.  Heirs of the late Superman creator Jerry Siegel revoked the transfer of copyright Siegel and his co-creator the late Joe Shuster granted DC Comics in 1938.

 

ABC News has lured Jack Ford from NBC to serve as host and correspondent on 20/20.  The former chief legal correspondent at NBC and co-anchor of the Today show weekend editions will be a leading candidate to replace Charles Gibson as host of Good Morning America.

 

The stage is set for a breakthrough fourth quarter for DVD.  A string of gotta- have titles already set for release between now and the end of the year will be complemented by a steady supply of players priced below $200.
