INCOMING TRANSMISSION ...

Sunday, April 24, 2005 Update by: Mel TM, Vartan Ho #13

Start your Sunday with a MiL review
If you're up early enough, you can tune in to CBS Sunday Morning at 9 a.m. Eastern. Why? Well, they're doing another of their Jane Fonda stories and have promised to review "Monster-in-Law." Let's hope it's another for the thumbs-up column!

Michael movies on TV
Crunkn8r82 let us know that "One Hour Photo" will be airing on FX on Tuesday, April 26 at 8 p.m. Eastern time, and then again on April 27 at 4 p.m. Eastern. Also, you can catch "Touch Me" at noon on Wednesday the 27th on the OXYGEN network. So if you have a) cable and b) the day off on Wednesday, I think you've just found yourself something to do.

It is snowing at the end of April! I didn't know that was supposed to happen. Oh, well, I'm always looking for a nice excuse to stay inside under my blanket, so this works. Have a nice Sunday!

HBO clip #3
Today is another day of additions and continuations! First up is the third and final vidclip from the "HBO First Look" of "Monster-in-Law." Thanks again to Gertie! It's been a couple of days since I saw this clip, but I think it's the one that shows a brief bit of Michael and JLo dancing amusingly. So it's well worth the download.

More from Michael in Jane
And we thought the Jane magazine interview from earlier this week was wonderful just as it was. Now Carol has sent us an additional Michael picture that was on the index page. Thanks so much, Carol!

More "Orphan" caps
Also today we have the third page and fourth page of Patrick's screencaps from "Alias" episode 12. Some nice MV caps!

Get creative!
The month is winding down, so we'd like to encourage you to send in your entries for the April caption contest. We haven't had quite as many entries as usual this month, which seems a bit odd to me. C'mon, JLo, dogs, leashes, a strangely stiff and creepy guy standing in the background staring at the camera -- there's a lot of funny fodder there!

I hope you have a fun and/or relaxing weekend. Heaven knows I'm really hoping for the latter!

HBO clip #2
I feel like one of those annoying scifi magazines that split their episode guides over multiple issues just to make sure you're buying them all! At least we're getting our money's worth this week! We've posted the second "HBO First Look" clip for y'all to adore. We adore Gertie for providing it and for lending us some server space to mirror it. Michael is hysterically funny in this one, so don't miss it!

HBO caps, pages 5 + 6
Better late than never. You can relive what's in today's clip and preview what's awaiting you tomorrow with our last batch of "First Look" caps (pages 5 and 6). In other words, see Michael crack up!

Patrick's 4.12 caps, page 2
Keeping up? You've probably noticed that the headers are very minimalistic today. We can share with you the second page of Patrick's HD caps from ep 4.12, "The Orphan." Both of us thought that teenaged Nadia was really cute, so there'll be 4 pages total.

MV to be on Carson Daly
Michael will appear on "Last Call with Carson Daly" again. The show will tape in L.A. on Friday, May 6, at 8:30 p.m. If you want to sit in the audience, you can get tickets at 1iota.com. Would be cool if Michael got a good crowd to cheer him on, and if anyone wants to provide spoilers, we're all ears! Other guests include Matt Dillon and a musical performance by Minnie Driver. Good luck!

MiL sneak previews
SouthernGal, Vartan Ho #770, let us know that MiL will be having sneak previews before its wide release. According to BoxOfficeMojo.com, you get the chance to catch it early on Sunday, May 8. Since that's Mother's Day, what could be more fitting? Again, good luck, and spoilers are welcome. ;)

One of the first (positive) MiL reviews
EW.com offers a countdown to the Top 10 movies of the summer, and MiL came in at #10! Not too much about Michael, but nice to see it mentioned in that group. And their last sentence definitely raises my expectations!

MV pics from MiL press conference
What better way to end an update than posting fresh-in, extremely lovely pics of MV? WireImage has updated with candid shots from the "Monster-In-Law" press conference from April 8. Thunkworthy! We'll keep our eyes open for more! Many thanks to Evansclan from Michael Vartan Germany for the heads-up!

Time to start the weekend!



Thursday, April 21, 2005 Update by: Mel TM, Vartan Ho #13

Two new interview clips!
HUGE thanks to Gertie at Alias Media for providing us with the following two videos and for mirroring them on her site. The first is part 1 of the HBO First Look at MiL special, and the second is an "Extra" interview with Michael about working with Jane Fonda and Jennifer Lopez. You can access them both here. Both of them make me really excited to see this movie. We'll have more of the HBO special to come tomorrow.

And some more caps...
Since we're a little concerned about bandwidth today (the HBO clip is pretty large, so please feel free to use the mirror site as well!), we're just going to shout out the fourth of six pages of HBO First Look screencaps. This way you can preview the content of tomorrow's HBO clip. Hint: Michael's making silly faces!

Michael magazine watch
Diana was nice enough to scan and send us a new interview with Michael from Jane magazine. Nice picture, but those were definitely some bizarre questions! I guess this was about the only way we'd hear an aerosol whipped cream story from Michael, though, so it's all good.

A chance for poker vindication
We're all very jazzed about this: according to amysusanne at TWoP, who attended the taping, Michael will be showing up on another edition of "Celebrity Poker Showdown" soon. Sounds like he'll be playing with some pretty interesting people, too--can't wait to see it!

Whew. That enough news for ya?

HBO First Look coverage
The behind-the-scenes special for MiL aired yesterday, and thanks to the generous Gertie from alias-media.com, we've got screen caps! We're posting the first three pages today, the rest will follow tomorrow. Beware of spoilers, there were new scenes (and cute puppies)! We're also working on clips.

German MiL release pushed back
It was to be expected. I don't think anybody but the States would be allowed to show this first! Thanks to Chandybing, we've learned that the German release of MiL has been moved from May 12 to May 26, 2005. So the big day for all fans will be the US release on May 13. :)

So, another Mr. Sloane tonight, huh? As if the week wasn't freaky enough!

See "MiL" for free
For those of you in the Detroit area, the Free-Press is giving away tickets to a screening of "Monster-in-Law" on May 11. You can read about how to enter to win tickets here (scroll down). Good luck, Hos!

No sign of Daddy Warbucks
But there is a SpyDaddy. Today we have the first page of Patrick's caps from "The Orphan," Alias ep 12. Enjoy! I like the first one in the second row the best.

Sketchworthy
Speaking of Alias, Lugia has added the guest stars for Episode 18 as well as the finale title to the spoiler page. Gotta love those creative character names.

MiL, er, May Calendar Page
Souris has created the next page of our printable MV calendar, so go ahead and take a peek! These are getting better and better! Who else than "Kevin" could've been our subject for May?

Sketchworthy
Speaking of adorable guys, we've added the last page of Patrick's "The Road Home" screen captures. I mentioned to him this weekend that missing a page is like missing an arm, so I'm giddy that I got to post this one. We'll have more of his pretties this week! Have an enjoyable one!
