Figured I'd join in with the horrendous grammar on display so far. Are the day release retards allowed on here?
Yeah but will she get raped every episoide? by SG7	May 21st, 2008 01:05:22 PM
Cause that's what passes for conflict in these weak ass books.
so is this the new Hercules and Xena? by oisin5199	May 21st, 2008 01:11:24 PM
Raimi back with a syndicated series? I thought Andromeda was the last of those.

Where the hell is Song of Ice and Fire? by Pops Freshemeyer	May 21st, 2008 01:32:25 PM
Update that.
Syndicated = FLOP by Zeegloo	May 21st, 2008 01:45:53 PM

What happened to Wee Free Men? by EskNerd	May 21st, 2008 01:52:48 PM
Discworld needs to make its Hollywood debut. And what's with Craig's mangina?
So... it's exactly the same plot as ROAR then? by Mockingbird Girl	May 21st, 2008 02:11:29 PM
:-o
Kahlan raped every episode? by Dreamwriter	May 21st, 2008 03:16:00 PM
Happened once in the entire series if I remember right, and not in the first book which is what the series is based on.
So is this going to be super cheesy lame? by DKT	May 21st, 2008 03:19:08 PM
Not that the books were high literature anyway, but still I was expecting something different than Hercules and Xena. These actors honestly don't look the part to me.

This should be on hbo, these books have to be way toned doon on the violence for tv

Hercules/Xena kicked ass by teethgnasher	May 21st, 2008 04:01:37 PM
2 hours of mindless entertainment. AND I LOVED IT! Consuming pizzas and ice cream while watching Sorbo, Lawless and Bruce "the Chin" Campbell. Can it get any better?
Will this show have muppets? by Christopher3	May 21st, 2008 04:04:34 PM
I insist.
Hollyweird flipping for "Horner" in a submissive pose. by kabong	May 21st, 2008 04:35:09 PM
Any hetero males over 30 years of age working in movies?
Agree with ya teethgnasher by mrfan	May 21st, 2008 04:39:27 PM
Remembering watching both on Saturday afternoon. Good times.
i hope this is the new xena and hercules... by seekshelter	May 21st, 2008 04:40:46 PM
..........nice...
actually Zoogloo by I87D	May 21st, 2008 05:30:23 PM
there's a lot more money in syndication than network primetime. it's just a lot riskier for investors (since each market has to be sold to individually). but if you turn on the TV and see a show airing first run in syndication, then it's already more profitable than 50% of the stuff shown on networks. And as for viewers, Hercules, Xena, & Baywatch were three of the most watched shows of the 90s. I believe, globally, Baywatch was the #1 show in the world at one point...
That's not Craig Horner by Prior Walter	May 21st, 2008 05:50:38 PM

Craig Horner or not... by brain drill	May 21st, 2008 05:57:33 PM
is that dude naked in that picture???
IT BRINGS THE SCRABBLE OR ELSE IT GETS THE HOSE AGAIN by RyanMurray	May 21st, 2008 06:49:14 PM
TRIPLE WORD SCORE
FAIL by Wolfman Nards	May 21st, 2008 11:18:11 PM
If this show isn't on Showtime or HBO it will be utter shit. The book is way too violent to be a network tv show. Me = Furious.
Where's Bruce Campbell? by JacksParasites	May 21st, 2008 11:42:26 PM

LordPorkington by A G	May 22nd, 2008 03:36:19 AM
You are a cunt. Leave the talkbacks for good.
Horner has a black weiner in that pic by Doctor Zoidberg	May 22nd, 2008 06:46:48 AM

Raimi shoud be banned from any prod. for awhile by Doctor Zoidberg	May 22nd, 2008 06:48:34 AM
Boy needs to get his shit straight after that schlock-fest Spidey III
Might be amusing by Kizeesh	May 22nd, 2008 07:13:21 AM
But it'll fail, as Raimi will throw in Xena-style PG13 violence and.....actually, that'd make it better. Hopefull he'll remove the 70 page bondage segment.
Are Those Their Myspace Pics? by Frat Boy	May 22nd, 2008 07:53:40 AM

If Bruce Campbell is in it at all by ChogWolf	May 22nd, 2008 08:04:29 AM
I will totally watch it.
by Omar B	May 22nd, 2008 08:13:58 AM
Must be hbo or it will suck, and i always hoped routh would play richard
by Omar B	May 22nd, 2008 08:30:31 AM
The mud people are good guys and cannibals, wonder how that will be handled on tv
WFR and violence by MJAYACE	May 22nd, 2008 08:38:26 AM
Agree on HBO and showtime comments. How are they going to do Richard's capture by the Mord Sith (basically torturing dominatrixes)? that was very violent, very sexual, yet was an integral part of his transformation and dealing with his "father". If Raimi does this Herc and Zena style it will be too lighthearted for the tone of the books. Oh and for Song of Ice and Fire, while fantastic books, in my opinion would be difficult to do as a TV show. Talk about intricate plot and exploratory dialogue! People bitched about the stupid taxation of trades routes crap from SW. Can you imagine the plot from SOIAF?
Song of Ice and Fire for dummies by Olsen Twins_Fan	May 22nd, 2008 10:33:37 AM
I got about 2/3 through the 1st book of this crapfest. It reads like fanfic.
41st!!!!! by Leafar the Lost	May 22nd, 2008 12:29:32 PM
If its syndicated, then I have to ask this: why wasn't it good enough to be on a network? Was Spiderman III that bad?
WIZARD'S FIRST STOOL SAMPLE by SlackAttack	May 22nd, 2008 01:44:46 PM
I tried reading this book... and I quickly came to the conclusion that I'd rather get shingles, diphtheria and stage 7 syphilis than finish it. I found most of what I read to be sadistic, simplistic, meat-fisted , etc... Terry Brooks is inspirational for one reason ladies -- he proves that ANYONE can write.
SlackAttack by Multiplex	May 22nd, 2008 02:47:33 PM
And you are inspiration for one reason: you prove that not everyone can READ. Terry Goodkind is not Terry Brooks.
the new Hercules and Xena by punto	May 22nd, 2008 03:15:25 PM
is Flash Gordon.
by Omar B	May 22nd, 2008 03:23:02 PM
Mixing up goodkind and brooks is pretty damn funny. goodkind i love, brooks, not at all. goodkind is always a great read imo
So Jesse Spencer has left HOUSE MD? by Drath	May 22nd, 2008 03:54:47 PM
Not that I'd be surprised, he and Jennifer Morrison are the least used of the original characters (and they killed Cutthroat Bitch! Those bastards!!!). Wait, did he change his name too? This story is several days old, surely AICN would be using the right picture too by now. Surely.
Xena/Hercules were awesome shows by jonsnow	May 22nd, 2008 05:50:07 PM
Those two series holds up well over time because of the modern humor and intense drama, as well as the very, very good actors like Kevin Smith, Lucy Lawless and Alexandra Tydings. Michael Hurst was a very good director for the light hearted episodes, which where just to take a break from some of the darker drama. A nice mix. Speaking of A Song of Ice and Fire, I'm still waiting for "Dances with Dragons" The writer has had major problems with his editor had the messy ideaof breaking his last book the book into two parts, Feast of Crows and Dances with Dragons. The bad part about that is my favorite character, Jon Snow is in Dances and left out of Crows.
I didn't think I was drunk, but I just laughed my..... by FlickaPoo	May 22nd, 2008 09:09:31 PM
....ass off reading this TB. Maybe I should go take a couple Tylenol...with a couple of big glasses of water. Just in case.
That girl looks like she's getting the 'Shocker' by DallasGoodbar	May 23rd, 2008 04:45:35 AM
Seriously. "Raimi gotta eat!"
Are those the BEST pictures you can find of the actors? by mistergreen	May 23rd, 2008 08:39:23 AM
What the heck is that guy doing? And the girl looks like somebody grabbed her hoohaa.
fuck you, AICN by antonphd	May 26th, 2008 02:34:06 AM
you know... those have to be the worst pictures that you could pick to show for these 2. you know, you prove why this is a website and not a real publication. zero class.
