Where Are They Now - Project Greenlight Winners
PGFinal.jpg

I'm not sure what made me think of Project Greenlight, recently. Was it last week's opening of the Tribeca Film Festival that made me think of the HBO competition from a few years back? Or maybe it was the sudden reemergence of Ben Affleck, in films like State of Play, and Extract (which looks pretty funny). Or maybe it was the Matt Damon cameo during Finding Forrester (he does alot of those).

Oh well, whatever it was, now that I've got it in my head, I'll have to look all over the Internet, or at least Wikipedia, to find out if the winners ever went on to bigger and better things.

Where Are They Now - The Whacked Pack
SopranoHeader.jpg

So, what's everbody watching on tv lately? 30 Rock...The Office...Lost? Damages and Rescue Me on FX are pretty good. What about the old HBO Sunday night line up? I thought this season of Big Love was great. And I'm a huge Flight of the Conchords fan. But both those HBO shows ended their seasons, and I'm a little short on choices for my pre-work week viewing pleasure. I may have to...um...read. Harsh.


But thank goodness for A&E, because tucked between the bounty hunter and retired rock god shows, they've been doing the viewing public the great service of showing Sopranos repeats on a daily basis. And Sunday nights is reserved for the final season. It's like I've fallen in love with the show all over again. So in honor of this television classic, let's take a look at what some of the cast are up to today. But not the lead characters. Today, we check in on the dearly departed, to see what life is like on the other side.

RIP Marilyn Chambers
200_marilynchambers.jpgA star from our popular Where Are They Now series featuring porn stars is no more. Marilyn Chambers has died.

One of Chambers' earliest modeling jobs was as the mother holding a baby on the box of Ivory Snow soap. Most of her adult films had the Ivory Snow box visible somewhere. The 1972 X-rated classic Behind the Green Door was her first porn film. She was reluctant to do the movie, but after filmmakers agreed to her demand of $25,000 plus a percentage of the gross, she took the plunge.

Marilyn Chambers has appeared in 34 movies, the most famous being Behind the Green Door. She left porn films in 1976, returning in 1980, then leaving to pursue R-rated films in 1982, and returned to X-rated films once again in 1999. In an industry where most actresses can't find roles after age 40, Chambers continued to star in adult films. Her last movie was Porndogs: The Adventures of Sadie which is still in post-production. In the film, she is the voice of the dog named Sadie.

Marilyn Chambers was found dead at her home Sunday night. No foul play is suspected, but the cause of dead has not been announced. Chambers would have turned 57 next week.

Rock-afire Explosion: Now Taking Requests

Holy freaking crap, I think this just may be the most awesome thing I have ever seen in my life:

Yes, that's "1,000,000" -- Nine Inch Nails' raging, nihilistic anthem of modern alienation -- being performed by The Rock-afire Explosion, the original house band from early-80s kid mecca Showbiz Pizza Place.

Wait, it gets even better.

This is not simply some nostalgic fan's iMovie handiwork using old footage, it is actually a newly-choreographed performance created by the original animatronic show's inventor, Aaron Fechter (who, by the way, also designed the Whac-A-Mole game in 1971.)

And the best part? The band takes requests.

Where Are They Now? The Cast of Ferris Bueller's Day Off
ferris_cast.jpg
Ferris Bueller's Day Off was a defining movie for me. I was seven when it came out, but I distinctly remember it giving me my first indication that I could stick it to the man if I wanted to. I didn't have to go to school. I could live by my own rules. And if you have a few friends by your side, all you need is a hot car, a nice day, no excuses, and everything will be all right. This was John Hughes' love letter to not only the teenage years, but the city of Chicago. So today, we revisit the cast of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and see where they are now.

Where are they now? Music Video Stars

Music videos changed the music business forever. But they didn't just open up a whole new world for musicians, they provided another avenue for actors and dancers to find work.

For some music video’s launched a career, for others it was their only shot at fame. Here’s an update on some of the memorable stars from some of the biggest videos.

Where Are They Now: The cast of M*A*S*H
MASHcast.jpg
Although the Korean War only lasted three years, the cast of M*A*S*H was with us every week for eleven years. The final episode on February 28, 1983 was the most watched episode in American TV ever, drawing 106 million viewers, or 77% of the audience that night. It’s been twenty-five years since we said Goodbye, Farewell and Amen; let’s see what the gang has been up to since then.

Where Are They Now - WKRP in Cincinnati
FlyTurkey.jpg

"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."

It's one of the funniest lines ever spoken, and it followed one of the classic scenes in network television...the Thanksgiving episode on WKRP in Cincinnati, when the station held a radio promotion, in which live turkeys were droppped on a suburban mall, and Les Nessman reported live from the scene. Just describing it brings a smile to my face.

We posted the video a couple months ago, as we do every year. But this year, I thought it might be time to check in on WKRP gang, to see what they're up to these days.

My NeverEnding Story
AtreyuGrabs.jpg

The following dialogue represents the entire actual conversation that went on inside my head approximately three weeks ago during a commercial break in the second half of the Sunday Night NFL game telecast on NBC...enjoy.


Burger King commercial...probably the next episode of the hit moms thing. Pretty funny, I should go to their site and see if it's worth...wait. no, not the moms. What is this? They're not serving whoppers. That's pretty good...how'd they shoot this? It's like, hidden camera, or something...documentary style...No, hidden camera. Behind the counter at the convenience store. Bullshit. This isn't hidden camera stuff. It said actual customers. Bullshit. Those aren't real people. They're actors. Like the coming out of theaters stuff. It's the best thing I've seen all year. We're going back in to see it again. All that stuff is fake. It's definitely fake. You're not fooling me again. I used to believe all that theater stuff. How long did they get me? Few years...understandable...they're really good actors...I guess...I'm not a smart person. This stuff is fake. They didn't really piss these people off. They're getting really angry. Would I get that angry? I'd be confused. I wouldn't t be angry. Maybe I'd be angry, He's really angry. They'd all have to sign releases. Did they all sign releases? Would I sign a release. How did Borat get all those people to sign releases? Those three racist kids in the Winnebago. Why the hell did they sign the releases? Did you see me? I was one of the racists in the van. Did he get releases? Did these people sign releases? What's that on his shirt? Atreyu...I know that name...that's from a movie. What movie was that from. Atreyu. It's a guy's name. No, it's a kid's name. It's a guy kid's name. Save me Atreyu. No...Help me atreyu? Who the fuck was Atreyu? A.T.R.E.Y.U...official site. Atreyu, you rock. Atreyu lyrics. Atreyu, Orange County. They're from Orange County. They're a band from Orange County. I dont want a band from Orange County. It wasn't a band. It's a guy from a movie. Every time I look up My Bloody Valentine I get that goddamned band. I don't want the band, I want the horror flick. Atreyu's not a band. Pretty popular band...five pages...man, they've got alot of fans...I should go to iTunes and check out Atreyu. Those housewives are from Orange County. Isn't the Hills set in Orange County. What's up with Orange County? Everyone's getting laid in Orange County. Atreyu's definitley getting laid in Orange County. Wouldn't they have to blur the logo? They didn't blur the logo. Lawsuit. Atreyu can sue Burger King. No, they would;ve thought of that. Wait! It's not a real band! It's part of the commercial. I'm supposed to go to google and look up Atreyu. They made me look up Atreyu. That's amazing. They made me look up Atreyu. Wait...They didn't make up Atreyu. There's ten pages of sites on Atreyu. I'm not smart. They bought off Atreyu. They found Atreyu and paid them off. Ateyu's gettin' a ton of free press. Atreyu's smart. Who the fuck was Atreyu...YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS...The NeverEnding Story. Ateyu was the kid in NeverEnding Story.

And now...Where Are They Now - The Three Kids from NeverEnding Story.

Just in time for the holidays, here's some toys you may remember that are still around and a few that aren't.

Where Are They Now - The Seinfeld Characters

SeinfeldBeeMovie.jpg

Hey, is Jerry Seinfeld in a new flick about bees? I'm not sure, but I think I read something recently, or saw some promotion? Was that him flying over Cannes in a bug suit? Or didn't he turn an entire episode of 30 Rock into a commercial? I know he does those tv shorts in the middle of The Office, but I never watch to the end. I think I saw him in a computer commercial talking about the flick...and on Letterman...the Today Show...Happy Meals. Oh look, there's something buzzing around my tomato plants with a tiny 11/2 printed on its butt. I haven't looked up at the sun recently, but has someone painted black stripes across it. (you can have that one for free) I mean, if the guy can get 60 minutes to do a bee bit, he's got some juice. And can you blame him? I heard he's down to his last three trillion. Brother's gotta eat.

But here's the thing...I don't think it's fair that Jerry's getting all this attention, while the rest of the old Seinfeld cast is out there somewhere, not sharing any of the limelight. And I'm not talking about Elaine, George and Kramer. (Elaine has her Emmy, George is taping his next celebrity poker thing, and Kramer's starring in a buddy flick with imus.) I'm talking about the bit players. Where's Babu these days? Whatever happened to the Low Talker? Where the heck has the Soup Nazi been. These are the folks that made Seinfeld what it was, and why I still can't change the channel when someone says Bubble Boy. So what's everyone been up to?

Where are they now? The Road Warrior

Sure The Road Warrior, aka Mad Max 2, launched Mel Gibson's career. But you know where he is now. (In rehab. Or church. Or writing The Passion Part II.) So today "The man they call Max" is not our focus.

The Road Warrior, a post-apocalyptic, gladiator movie / masterpiece, had more than it's fair share of memorable characters. And so we pay tribute to a few of the actors who helped make it a cinematic classic.

Debbie Does Dallas - The Bambi Woods Interview: Final Thoughts

200705172145
Over the last few days we've told the story of our exclusive interview with Bambi Woods (here, here and here) one of the most famous adult movie actresses of all time, due to her starring role in the original "Debbie Does Dallas". After a brief period of infamy, she retired to a life of obscurity, marrying and raising children, and living happily ever after.

The interview itself was carried out over the course of multiple emails, and while I have - at her request - held back a few details that may have allowed people to locate and track her down, most of what I know is here in the story.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 6]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
