Is Dave Chappelle Bringing the ‘Chappelle Show’ Back? [VIDEO]

0

CBS posted a preview clip for Dave Chappelle’s first Late show interview in ten years and it is amazing.

David Letterman asks Dave Chappelle the question the world has been wondering for years now. What happened to the Chappelle’s Show?

Chappelle answered simply by saying, “Listen, here it is…Technically, I never quit. I’m seven years late for work.”

Does that mean there’s more Chappelle’s Show episodes coming in the near future?

Chappelle has been keeping it very low key ever since the end of the show. Following the third season, Chappelle had an interview with Oprah in 2006 after traveling to South Africa. There were reports that he planned on going back to the show but, he was unsure. However, Comedy Central decided to release the “lost season” and removed any chance of the show returning.

But, it was probably for the better. The comedian and actor commented that he was getting burned out by the work, and he found it more comfortable on the stage, without the problem of Comedy Central executives dictating what he can and cannot do.

This looks like a great and promising interview.

These 3 Actors Are the Only Actors That Increase How Much a Movie Makes

0

Only 4 actors in Hollywood affect how much a movie will make, three of them increase it, while one female actress decreases the value of a movie.

Life is being directed more and more by mathematical calculations than by intuition or desires, and the entertainment industry is no exception.

In an article in The Economist, author Tom Whipple, examined the effects of algorithms- a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations. It is is used in various industries including the entertainment industry. The article in the Economist argues that movie stars are paid luxurious salaries because a mathematical equation tells them to.

Johnny Depp Black Mass

According to movie-analysis software, there are only three actors who make money for a film and there is at least one A-list actress who is worth not paying not to star in a feature film.

Here is how they do it.

Epagogix, is a movie-analysis company that analyzes how well a movie will do. When they are first given a job by a studio, the first thing that they they do is put a numerical value on thousands of factors, drawn from the script. For example,  “Are there clear bad guys? How much empathy is there with the protagonist? Is there a sidekick?”

These factors are then inputted into a computer and 83% of the time they are right.

According to his studies, a majority of the time it does not matter who stars in the feature film. Irrespective if it is George Clooney, Tom Cruise, or Robert DeNiro

There are only four exceptions to his rules. If you hire Will Smith, Brad Pitt or Johnny Depp, you will make a larger return on your movie in comparison to other Hollywood A-Listers.

However, there is one actress who cannot be named, if she added to a movie, she actually causes a negative influence on a movie. “It’s very sad for her,” he says. But hers is a name he cannot reveal.”

Algorithms are everywhere, from Amazon, to Netflix, to Pizza Hut. Algorithms decide what would be the best route during rush hour traffic, what book you should read, what you should buy at Best Buy.

Brad Pitt

But, it is interesting to note that despite Hollywood promoting certain A-List actors in big budget movies, they have no financial effect and do not change the fact whether or not someone will see a movie. But, what does matter is the quality, and content of a movie, not the name of the actor.

What do you think? Who do you think the actress is that causes for a movie to do worse? Why do you think Will Smith, Brad Pitt or Johnny Depp increases the value of a movie? Share with us your thoughts in the comments below!

Right now our thoughts and prayers remain with Tracy, the other victims of the accident, and their families.

Tracy Morgan has been in critical condition and recently underwent surgery on his leg following a car crash early Saturday morning that killed Morgan’s friend, mentory, and comedy writer James McNair.

Kevin Roper, the Walmart truck driver who drove into the back of a limo carrying Tracy Morgan early Saturday Morning, had not slept in at least 24 hours by the time of the accident.

Walmart president recently said in a statement that the company “will take full responsibility” if it’s ruled that Walmart’s truck caused the accident.

‘That 70’s Show’ Star, Husband Sues Rehab for Wrongful Death

0

‘That 70’s Show’ Star died from a multiple drug overdose, now her husband is filing suit.

Lisa Robin Kelly died in August after entering a rehab facility. The troubled actress who played Laurie Forman on the FOX series, “That 70’s Show,” died of a multiple drug intoxication, according to the Los Angeles County coroner’s department.

Kelly was 43 when she passed away in August 2013, after entering a rehab facility to fight her drug addiction. Her rehab was preceded by a history of legal and substance-abuse.

Prior to checking into the rehab facility, Kelly was replaced on “That 70’s Show” for the series sixth season, she made national news for her erratic behavior and was arrested in 2012 for assaulting her husband.

The charges were eventually dropped, but she did tell “Good Morning America” that she had developed a drinking problem after suffering a miscarriage.

“I had lost a baby, and as a result of that, I lost everything, and I was abusing alcohol, which I no longer do,” Kelly, who claimed to be sober for three months at the time of the interview, said. “With ‘That ’70s Show,’ I was guilty of the drinking problem and I ran. And I am not running from this. And I have paid my dues. And if I can make it through this, I can make it through anything.”

Now, her husband claims that Lisa Robin Kelly died from negligent care. In a wrongful death lawsuit filed in superior court in Los Angeles on Monday, Robert Gilliam says that facility Pax House and its operators, “carelessly and negligently owned, managed and operated the subject facility and/or were negligent in the hiring, retention, training, and supervision of their agents, employees, servants, and/or independent contractors whom they assigned to care for patients.”

The lawsuit claims that Kelly was “neglected in for an unreasonable amount of time” while at the facility.

Due to Kelly’s death, the lawsuit says, Gilliam has “sustained damages resulting from the loss of love, affection, society, comfort, support, right of support, expectations of future support and counseling, companionship, solace and mental support.”
