Chapelle's gone Pete Tong
In today's entertainment news, Dave Chapelle is MIA and Loews Theaters decides to stop acting like an asshole.
I love love love that this reporter's opening line to the article is "Chappelle's Show is a no-go, bitch!".
In a surprise announcement Wednesday, Comedy Central said that the highly anticipated third season of Dave Chappelle's show will not make its May 31 premiere date. link
They go on to say that Dave's been missing from the set for weeks. I don't see why they don't just get Wayne Brady to guest host like they did last time.
UPDATE: Defamer reports that Dave has lost his shit. Check the second link to Loosie while you're at it. Cocaine's a hell of a drug. Thanks to Doc Ott for the tip.
The next new development confirms that I'm not the only one pissed off about the fact that after paying $10-11 bucks to see a film you are forced to sit through 10 minutes of commercials. That's so wrong we need a new word for wrong.
In response to gripes from customers about the increasing number of ads, PSAs, promotions and sneak previews running before a film, Loews, the nation's third-largest theater chain, has announced that it will soon start publicizing the real times that movies unspool. link
However, a rep confirmed that their popcorn will continue to maintain levels of suckitude unheard of at other theaters.

Speaking of movies, Kingdom of Heaven comes out tomorrow, and I'm really scared it's going to be disappointing. I've loved every movie Ridley Scott has ever made, including GI Jane (step off- that was a good movie), but I knew as soon as I saw that he cast Orlando Bloom in the lead that this one was gonna be tough to pull off. As one reviewer put it, "What a pusillanimous pussy!" (now that's good journalism). Pretty? Yes. Bad ass? Um, no. Like Chris Rock might have said had he thought of it, if you want Clive Owen and all you can get is Orlando Bloom, WAIT!
