Krasinski & Redford Sitting In A Tree... Dec 04, 2008 at 03:40AM Source: That's What She SaidWe've talked for a while about John Krasinski's directorial debut, his own adaptation of the late David Foster Wallace's BRIEF INTERVIEWS WITH HIDEOUS MEN (plot: when her boyfriend leaves with little explanation, a doctoral candidate in anthropology tries to remedy her heartache by interviewing men about their behavior). The film stars Krasinski, Julianne Nicholson, Timothy Hutton, Dominic Cooper, Christopher Meloni, and Rashida Jones, and was set to be released sometime in the new year. Well, some extremely good news came for Johnny K. today by way of Park City, Utah-- it seems that BRIEF has been selected as one of the 16 official entries in the 2009 Sundance Film Festival's U.S. DRAMATIC COMPETITION (selected from 1,026 submissions). Nicely done. Buzz at Sundance can only help the film spread to a wider audience, and here's hoping that we'll actually get to see what John can do on the big screen (no offense to fans of period football flicks or cheesy rom-coms).

Jan Talks Pregnancy Dec 03, 2008 at 05:01AM Source: That's What She SaidSo PREGNANCY magazine had an interview in this month's issue with everyone's favorite Office related psycho, Jan Levinson. Yep, it's a magazine interviewing a fictional character (IN character) about her fictional pregnancy (which has been over for quite some time now). From the article: Will you go back to work after the babyâs born? I will always work in some capacity. Even watching Oprah in the afternoon is work, because Iâm working on me and my work ethic is strong. I am, ultimately, a great boss and Iâm sure Iâll be a great boss to my child. The most intriguing-slash-disturbing thing about this was the cover, a recreation of the (in)famous Janet Jackson Rolling Stone cover from 1993.  Ah, what man WOULDN'T dream of being Melora Hardin's hand-bra? (thanks to Foliomag for the photo) |

HAPPY THANKSGIVING Nov 27, 2008 at 05:12PM Source: That's What She SaidTo all our fellow American fans of The Office, we wish you a happy and healthy Thanksgiving! Kevin and the missus are off debauching themselves in Las Vegas, but you can rest assured that I'll be spending a wholesome family Thanksgiving day at my parents' house, stuffing my face with an assortment of traditional holiday fare (hopefully followed by some fearsome rounds of Rock Band 2 and Ticket To Ride). Hope everyone else has a great day, wherever (or HOWever) you choose to celebrate. See you in the chatroom next Thursday! |

Watch The Producer's Cut of "Frame Toby" Nov 27, 2008 at 01:00AM Source: That's What She SaidIt's about four minutes longer than the original cut, and as I thought they (for the most part) simply wove the footage from the already aired deleted scenes back into the episode. There were a few new bits (Angela's wedding dress, Phyllis talking about her house, etc.), but most of them weren't too essential. Kevin might be happy, as this new cut definitely fleshed out the microwave plotline-- the escalating notes definitely rang true to me (and the "I'll knock your teeth out" line will be worthy of speculation). A big "boo" to Hulu for blacking out the penises on the notes, though--took a bit of humor out of that deleted scene. I honestly think this cut DOES make FRAME TOBY a better episode than the original cut, although that might be faint praise for some. What did you guys think? Did this change your mind at all, or was it just more of the same? |

Hollywood actors guild to seek strike Nov 23, 2008 at 05:24AM Source: That's What She SaidSat Nov 22, 3:58 pm ET
LOS ANGELES â The Screen Actors Guild said Saturday it will ask its members to authorize a strike after its first contract talks in four months with Hollywood studios failed despite the help of a federal mediator. The guild said it adjourned talks with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers shortly before 1 a.m. after two marathon sessions with federal mediator Juan Carlos Gonzalez. SAG, representing more than 120,000 actors in movies, television and other media, said in a statement that it will launch a "full-scale education campaign in support of a strike authorization." Talks broke down after the studios sought the right to create productions for new media, such as the Internet, using nonunion actors and without paying residuals, said Doug Allen, SAG national executive director and chief negotiator. Residuals are payments to actors that are made every time a production airs, such as TV reruns. Many SAG members rely on residuals for more than half of their income, Allen said. "They're asking us to bless a system we believe would be the beginning of the end of residuals and that's a very scary thought for working actors," he said. The producers' alliance condemned the SAG decision and said it remains the only major Hollywood guild without a labor deal this year. "Now, SAG is bizarrely asking its members to bail out the failed negotiating strategy with a strike vote â at a time of historic economic crisis," a producers' statement said. "The tone-deafness of SAG is stunning." SAG's national board has already authorized its negotiating committee to call for a strike authorization vote if mediation failed. The vote would take more than a month and require more than 75 percent approval to pass. SAG wants union coverage for all Internet-only productions regardless of budget and residual payments for Internet productions replayed online, as well as continued actor protections during work stoppages. But the AMPTP said it was untenable for SAG to demand a better deal than what writers, directors and another actors union accepted earlier in the year, especially now that the economy has worsened. Earlier this week, the producers' group said it had reached its sixth labor deal this year, a tentative agreement on a three-year contract with the local branches of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, Moving Picture Technicians, Artists and Allied Crafts, accounting for 35,000 workers. The stagehands alliance accepted Internet provisions that were modeled on agreements with other unions, the producers group said. Actors in prime-time television shows and movies have been working under the terms of a contract that expired June 30, with the hope of avoiding a repeat of the 100-day writers strike which shut down production of dozens of TV shows and cost the Los Angeles area economy an estimated $2.5 billion. |
