The Assistants Premieres Tonight

By

July 10, 2009

The N’s new original comedy The Assistants premieres tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET, with two back-to-back episodes airing from 8:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. (ET). The series takes a comedic look at four showbiz assistants working for a big-shot producer as they strive to make it in the chaotic, sometimes cruel, but always zany world of Hollywood.

In the premiere episode, “The Car”, airing at 8:30 p.m., it’s Gillian Young’s first day as an assistant to Zach Del Toro, a high-profile, high-pressure producer in Hollywood. Gillian’s first task is to sell one of Zach’s old cars by the end of the day. While she struggles to find an effective selling tactic, the other assistants continue scrapping their way to the top–from impersonating a young director (Rigby) to spending hours trying to skillfully “pen” a new outgoing message for Zach’s cell phone (Nate). Gillian has to use every skill she has to impress her new boss in order to keep her job (and prove she is Hollywood-worthy).

The second premiere episode, “The Star”, at 9:00 p.m., features Rigby passing on what seems to be a totally exciting assignment, ‘assistant in charge’ for a press junket with one of the biggest young stars in Hollywood (played by Glee’s Cory Monteith). When her office rival Gillian is left with this responsibility, Gillian finds that her movie star crush, who’s paying her a lot of attention, is not the person she thought he was. Meanwhile, Rigby is trying to pitch her own screenplay to the head honcho of the studio and Nate discovers the secret to Danny’s success around the office.

So be sure to watch The Assistants airing from 8:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. (ET) on The N.

Review: 12 Rounds DVD

By

July 8, 2009

4

Starring:
John Cena as Det. Danny Fisher
Aidan Gillen as Miles Jackson
Ashley Scott as Molly Porter
Steve Harris as Special Agent George Aiken
Brian J. White as Det. Hank Carver

Street Date: June 30, 2009
Pricing: $29.98 U.S. (standard DVD)
Genre: Action
Run Time: 109 minutes
Rating: PG-13

Synopsis:

12 Rounds is about a New Orleans Police Detective named Danny Fisher (John Cena) who stops a thief from getting away with a multi-million dollar heist. During the capture, the thief’s girlfriend is accidentally killed. A year later, the thief (Miles – played by Aidan Gillen) escapes from jail and seeks revenge on Detective Fisher. Fisher is then informed that he must complete 12 rounds (a series of near impossible puzzles and tasks) in order to save his fiancée from the thief’s evil clutches.

The DVD features:

* Theatrical and Unrated versions-
There really isn’t a difference between the two as far as the movie goes but you must be viewing the Unrated version in order to access the two commentary tracks.

* Two Commentary tracks-
One is with the Director Renny Harlin and the other is with the writer Daniel Kunka and John Cena. Both tracks are very informative but the one with the writer and John Cena was more entertaining.

* Two Alternate Endings-
It’s a chance to see how the movie could have ended – thankfully it didn’t end like either ending.

* Never-Before-Seen Gag Reel

* Crash Course – John Cena Stunts-
Out of all the extras this would have to be the coolest. John Cena was totally involved in the stunts. From the cool driving to the high flying. You get to see how great of a driver John is and how afraid of heights he is.

Overall:

12 Rounds is a solid film. It has great action scenes that take you through various parts of New Orleans on an edge of your seat cat-and-mouse chase. Unlike The Marine, it is believable and all of the movies explosions clearly have a reason. 12 Rounds is a cool action film that will keep you engrossed for every round.

Review: Orbit MP3 Speaker from Altec Lansing

Want to share your MP3 player, mobile phone or laptop tunes anytime and anywhere? All you need is the Orbit MP3 speaker!

This ultra portable speaker delivers excellent volume and sound clarity thanks to its 360 degree sound field. The Orbit can play for up to 24 hours on 3 AAA batteries, but don’t worry about not knowing when your 24 hours are up because the Orbit lets you know when your batteries are low using the battery life indicator.

The Orbit’s portable design is perfect. With the use of the integrated cord storage (the wrap around design protects the 3.5 mm connector and cord), the speaker fits perfectly into its included carrying case.

So with its portability, 360 sound and long battery life, the Orbit is just what you need to make your next party louder, longer and most importantly OUT OF THIS WORLD!

You can purchase the Orbit MP3 Player at Altec Lansing’s website here.

To really make the Orbit your own, personalize it using Skinit! Click here to see all the great skins you can get for the Orbit.

Watch WWE RAW Commercial Free

With the quitting of Raw’s General Manger Vickie Guerrero, it was inevitable that Raw would get a new GM but having a new owner was definitely a shocker.

Mr. McMahon appeared following the Fatal Four Way WWE Championship Match to announce to whom he had sold Monday Night Raw. While McMahon will still be the Chairman of WWE, Raw will be independently owned and runned. And who will be running the show is none other than Donald Trump.

After the BIG announcement, Trump then declared that next weeks Raw would be airing completely commercial-free and he would be attending the show to run it exactly the way he wants.

So be sure to watch WWE Raw Monday, June 22 at 9pm ET/8pm CT on the USA Network to see what happens!
