Walt Disney's Tangled Mandy Moore Article - Billy Tatum
It’s “Tangled” week here and in honor of Disney’s animated feature “Tangled“, High Speed Magazine will feature interviews with the stars as well as a review of Disney’s 50th animated film.
“Tangled” is a modern retelling of the story of Rapunzel, a beautiful princess who is locked in a tower. With the help of charming bandit Flynn Rider, played by Zachary Levi, Rapunzel sets out to find her place in the world. I recently had a chance to speak to Mandy Moore at the place of all things Disney, the happiest place on earth…Disneyland.
Q: The character is several hundred years old and yet she has a lot of modern sensibilities. Could you tell about how you found the balance?
Antoine Dodson’s Sex Offender Tracker Application

In case you don’t know who Antoine Dodson is by now because you’ve probably been living under a rock or something. Check out our initial post about him by clicking here.
Leave it to capitalism to turn a bad joke into an abysmal disaster. Antoine Dodson wisely capitalized off the near sexual assault of his sister and became an overnight celebrity. One auto tuned viral hit later and Dodson is a household name-for all the wrong reasons. The latest in Dodson’s quest to remain relevant is this ridiculous video. Leave it to us to find five things messed up about Dodson’s new role as spokesman for a sex offender tracker app:
1. Antoine Dodson in the Antoine Dodson costume.
Somebody get this man a button up and a Double Down. Would you buy anything from Laurence Fishburne dressed as Morpheus? Well you might, but that doesn’t mean you should buy anything from Dodson dressed as Dodson.
2. We have no idea what this application actually does (:20)
Outside of the fact that this looks like an attempt to fleece $1.99 from people who have money to burn, what does this app actually do? The screen shots look like something taken from a military related board game commercial. Disappointment set in when Antoine didn’t yell out, “you sank my battleship!”
3. The Wikipedia sighting (:49)
Seriously, if you want to protect your loved ones from sex offenders, are you going to trust anything coming from Wikipedia as a source? This deserves no further commentary.
4. “Now you can run and tell that” (1:08)
There’s perhaps no other clue that the joke is on Dodson than the closing moments of this abomination commercial. Anonymous announcer guy tells us to fork over two bucks so we too can “run and tell that.” Earth to Antoine-they’re not laughing with you. The only thing missing is somebody telling us that we’re watching UBN.
5. Dodson as a caricature of himself.
This would have been hilarious as a Saturday Night Live parody. The fact that this is all very real is just deeply disturbing on a number of levels. Sexual assault is serious and any substantial conversation on prevention is hampered when the first thing people think of is the reincarnation of MC Gusto. To add insult to injury, Dodson — though not the most eloquent speaker — doesn’t even talk like this regularly, as evidenced by his interview on NPR.

MTV Seven! Justin Timberlake and Drake To Be First Guests
September 23, 2010- MTV today announced the launch of The Seven, a daily, half-hour, live studio based show that counts down the seven must-know pop culture-driven stories of the day, along with live interviews and performances. Hosted by former Chicago radio personality Kevin Manno and former “Mets Weekly” host Julie Alexandria, the show will be presented live in front of a studio audience in New York’s entertainment hub, Times Square. The show will debut on September 27th at 5pm ET/PT with hip hop sensation, Drake, and the cast of the film, “The Social Network” (Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield & Justin Timberlake), slated as the show’s first live in-studio guests.
“It’s become nearly impossible for our audience to keep track of all the issues that matter to them,” said Steve Tseckares, Senior Vice President of Special Programming and Production, MTV. “The Seven will cut through the clutter and serve as a daily curator of the seven must-know items of the day.”
Each episode of “The Seven” will give MTV viewers an edge up on the seven things that will most impact their world including celebrity, music, movies, and television news, as well as a myriad of other topics including sex, dating and fashion. Fast-paced with a fun vibe, the program will originate from Times Square, but its content will span the globe.
The show will debut on September 27 and will air daily at 5:00pm ET/ PT. Fresh off his performance at the 2010 Video Music Awards, Drake, as well as the cast of “The Social Network” (Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield & Justin Timberlake) opening October 1, will serve as the show’s first live in-studio guests.
“MTV has played a pivotal part in my career from the beginning and I look forward to being a part of “The Seven” from the start,” said Drake.
The Seven is hosted by Kevin Manno and Julie Alexandria. Kevin hails from Chicago, where his passion for music landed him a gig hosting a nightly radio show for top-rated station Q101. Julie is a pop culture junkie and an avid sports fan that New Yorkers may recognize as the host of “Mets Weekly.” Steve Tseckares oversees the show, with Jennie Sager serving as Executive Producer.
Warner Premier To Launch New Series By Bryan Singer and McG

Warner Premier
Director Bryan Singer (Superman Returns) and Warner Premiere are teaming up for a new sci-fi thriller series, H+, according to reports today. Produced through Singer’s Bad Hat Harry Productions, H+ will be the first live-action web series out of Warner Premiere, the studio’s digital production arm. Up until now Premiere has focused on bringing a number of motion comics to the web including Superman, Batman: Mad Love and Watchmen. Earlier this month, they rolled outPeanuts, the studio’s first fully animated comic web series.
H+ is another future-based semi-apocalyptic sci-fi story, delving into what has been a hot plot line of late with the likes of MSN’s Kirill, NBCU’s Gemini Division and indie series After Judgment. This one picks up after a cyber-terrorist attack wipes out a large chunk of the world — a chunk that chose to have their brains directly wired into the internet.
John Cabrera (Gilmore Girls) and Cosimo De Tommaso will be writing the series and serving as executive producers. The pair initially pitched H+ as a traditional TV series, but were apparently persuaded by Warner Premiere’s Head of Digital Content, Lydia Antonini, to instead develop it as an original web series. Under Antonini, Warner Premiere has rebranded itself as more than just a direct-to-DVD arm of the well known studio. Some 20 original web series projects are on the docket for the next year, with some of those most likely heading to the studio’s web-only portal,TheWB.com.
The series is still in the early stages of development and has yet to be cast or attach a director, according to The Hollywood Reporter. It looks like Singer’s role will mostly be in a overseeing capacity similar to director McG’s limited note-giving on TheWB’s college web series, Sorority Forever. Best guess for release at this point is around mid 2009.

Golfer’s swing sparks 25-acre California blaze

You can use a golf club for all kinds of non-golfy purposes — walking stick, fishing rod, club, to name three. And now we can add to that list – firestarter.
Over the weekend, a golfer’s routine swing in the rough at the Shady Canyon Golf Course in Irvine, Calif., struck a rock. Not so different from the way you play, right? Only this time, the impact caused a spark, and the spark set off a blaze that eventually covered 25 acres, according to the Steven Buck, General Manager of Shady Canyon Golf Course, and required the efforts of 150 Orange County firefighters, writes the Associated Press.
Wow. And I felt bad the time I shanked a ball through the window of a house too close to the fairway. That was nothing compared to this!
The golfer’s name is being withheld, which is probably for the best, and no charges are going to be filed. Fortunately, it all could have been much worse. As it was, the blaze required both helicopters and on-the-ground crews.
The conditions were ripe for a blaze, with dry brush from a recent heat wave just waiting for the right spark. Like, say, one caused by metal on rock.
And now, your turn. This is going to inspire a raft of bad Sportscenter-esque “When we say he set the course on fire, he really set the course on fire!” jokes. So let’s get ahead of the curve. Best bad golf-and-fire-related pun in the comments wins a round of applause. Go!
