‘Gilmore Girls’ movie a possibility?
by ruben17 on Feb.20, 2010, under CalifornicationInsider Reviews
I think I had a small stroke when I read the headline on Popeater.com: “Alexis Bledel Ponders a ‘Gilmore Girls’ Movie.” I still cannot get enough of the two Lorelais, even though “Gilmore Girls” completed its run nearly three years ago.
The show – set in fictional Stars Hollow, Connecticut – centered on a mother-daughter duo who were best friends first and parent/child second. Oh, and it was magical! Not in a wands and broomsticks sort of way, mind you; but in a “sitting on a window seat, watching snow fall, drinking hot cider (or coffee, if you’re a Gilmore) and savoring a great book” way.
Series creator Amy Sherman-Paladino (a.k.a the smart American girl’s hero) breathed tremendous life into her characters. For example, Bledel’s character, Rory, aspired to be CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, quoted Dorothy Parker (Sherman-Palladino’s production company is named Dorothy Parker Drank Here Productions) and read Proust. Literature was essentially an un-credited character on “Gilmore Girls.”
The plot goes like this: Series protagonist, Lorelai Gilmore, turned down a life of privilege after becoming pregnant at 16 and opted to raise her daughter on her own. At the show’s premiere, Lorelai was 32, Rory was 16, and the show was about how Lorelai wanted Rory to be exactly like her, but at the same time be nothing like her. She wanted Rory to have the advantages she never had (top-notch education, world travel), but also wanted to keep her away from coming out parties, cotillions, rich snobbery and overall stuffiness. Throughout the show’s seven seasons, we saw Lorelai grow from inn manager/community college student pursuing a business degree by night to proprietress of her very own country inn.
We simultaneously watched Rory grow from 15-year-old Harvard-bound prep school student, to editor of the Yale Daily News (she picked Yale after agonizing over one of her famous pro-con lists) to Ivy League graduate and reporter on the Obama campaign.
But sandwiched within those details were the elements that made the show dazzle. The quirky inhabitants of Stars Hollow were straight out of a 1940s screwball comedy (articles could be written about each one of them). Lorelai’s parents, Richard and Emily Gilmore, started off in the series by funding Rory’s education but wound up guiding, anchoring and nurturing both Lorelai and Rory, and always with a great sense of humor.
What other fictional TV show could nab guest stars like Madeleine Albright, Senator Barbara Boxer, Norman Mailer, and the aforementioned Christiane Amanpour?
While a “Gilmore Girls” movie is still feeding rumor mills, I wonder if it is better to just leave well enough alone. Perhaps it is best not to mess with perfection.
What about you? Would you like to see a “Gilmore Girls” movie? Or, if you weren’t a “Gilmore” watcher, are there any TV shows (a la “Sex and the City”) that you believe would translate well to the Silver Screen?

David Duchovny remains hesitant about tennis

David Duchovny, the main protagonist of the Californication TV series, seems to remain hesitant about tennis. Not sure if you all remember about the highly publicized relationship between Duchovny and his tennis instructor, Edit Pakay.
This episode happened back in 2008, when David was accused by media that he was involved in an affair with his 28-year-old Hungarian tennis partner.
However both sides immediatley rejected the rumors. The intensity of their denial and especially of Edit Pakay’s one surprised a lot of people. Many judged that by her insisted denying attempts Edit managed only to drag herself even deeper into this story.
David Duchovny, alias Hank Moody in the Californication show, seems to have also got some strange kind of allergy to tennis since this highly unwanted publicized story. Just to mention that Duchovny was already split from his wife Tea Leoni, before this story with Edit Pakay surfaced.
Duchovny has been rarely seen playing or watching tennis in public since. He might also check or watch tennis online though. Live tennis is now available for everyone online too.
Human is Actor
by ruben17 on Jan.13, 2010, under CalifornicationInsider Reviews
People are unique, aren’t they? They always want to reach the sky. They always want to become the best. They will never get enough of what they have. They will never satisfy with who they are now. They always want to be somebody else, somebody who is better than anyone.
Thus, people are often actors. It is because they always act in this world. They cover themselves and become somebody else in front of the public. It is not just a blabber. It is the true nature of human. This is one of the reasons why people join an actor school. They take a risk of changing their character with so much discomfort because they want the others to see them as somebody on a play. They don’t mind of getting scolded by the director because they believe they can make the other people get impressed by their creativity. This is what people will learn from Anthonymeindl.com, actually.
To drive in movies in front of a large audience, producers will need to prepare extra large screen on a large area. They need projector, they need audio system, they need electrical backup with generator, and they need on-site technicians to make sure the events will be held safely. In short, they need Hollywoodoutdoormovies.com.
