Rosie O’Donnell Joins the Cast of “Orange is the New Black”?

Rosie O’Donnell is a huge “Orange is the New Black” fan. Probably a bigger fan than you.

The actress attended the OITNB premiere and said that the series is the best female ensemble ever on TV.

O’Donnell was so much of a fan of the series that she said she would even let the writers kill her off just so she could have a cameo on the series.

When reporters asked her if she would be a guest in the new season O’Donnell said “I begged. After I saw the first two episodes, I’m like ‘Who do I call?’ Let me get knifed in a shower — someone give me a part on this.”

I’m pretty sure that if O’Donnell went to prison she would take more than your cornbread.

Orange is the New Black is produced by Tilted Productions in association with Lionsgate Television, is based on the memoir Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women’s Prison written by Piper Kerman.

Producers held an open casting call in January for several roles in the movie. One of the most interesting casting notices was “SEEKING INMATES WITH SCARS, TATTOOS, UNIQUE/INTERESTING LOOKS.”

Watch Television on Tumblr? AMC is making it possible with their new series ‘Halt and Catch Fire’

As the new series Halt and Catch Fire draws closer to their premiere, AMC is launching a two week-full episode sneak preview on Tumblr and AMC.com, making it the first television series to premiere on Tumblr.

The Atlanta filmed production, is created by Christopher Cantwell and Christopher C. Rogers and centers on the rise of the Personal Computer in the 1980’s.

“Halt and Catch Fire is a fun ride through the early days of the PC era, a time when no one could imagine a portable computer weighing less than 15 pounds, let alone one that was a few ounces and doubled as a phone,” AMC President Charlie Collier said in a statement. “It’s a perfect show for summer and – given the subject matter – a good fit for Tumblr’s first TV series premiere and AMC’s first social media screening.”

AMC also plans on creating a special branded network Tumblr page for the television series. Just as the characters on the show, Halt and Catch Fire are trying to tap into the technology around them, it looks like AMC is trying to do the same.

“Tumblr is the biggest platform for social TV and destination for many of AMC’s most passionate fans,” Global Head of Brand Partnerships at Tumblr Lee Brown said. “We’re excited to welcome Halt and Catch Fire and the rest of AMC’s lineup to the home of fandoms through Tumblr integration on AMC.com and to offer this first look at Halt and Catch Fire to our community.”

Starting on Monday, May 19 and running through Saturday, May 31, viewers will be able to preview the new series on Tumblr and AMC.com before it premieres on AMC on Sunday, June 1 at 10 p.m.

The President of Paramount FIlm Group, announced in a statement the please he has for partnering with Johnny Knoxville. “Johnny has literally put life and limb on the line to create the kind of groundbreaking comedies that audiences the world over flock to in greater and greater numbers. “With ‘Bad Grandpa,’ we saw his undying commitment to great storytelling go beyond what audiences had seen before with a more narrative style that also showcased his incredible comedic abilities. As a vital member of the Paramount family for many years now, to see him continue to evolve as a producer and actor is especially exciting and we are thrilled he will be making his home here for years to come.”

The recent surprise hit “Bad Grandpa” earned an unexpected $151 million dollars worldwide on a small $15 million production budget.

“I have many more films to make and bones to break,” Knoxville said. “I am glad I will be doing it for Paramount.”

Godzilla dominated the box office this weekend with reports that this is one of the biggest movie of 2014.

The Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures reboot made a whopping $93 million dollars in the United States and an additional $10 million internationally for a total of $103 million in first weekend sales.

Godzilla’s debut made more money than Marvel’s The Amazing Spiderman 2 and topped the previous disaster movies, World War Z and Pacific Rim. But, it was $2 million dollars short from topping Captain America: The Winter Soldier. 

After making $103 Million dollars internationally in the opening weekend, it looks as Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures are already in development for a sequel.

Many people argued that the movie was so successful because the movie’s trailer was so misleading. The trailer framed the movie in one direction but, the actual movie itself was something completely different.

Godzilla‘s success this weekend can be attributed to some smart choices made by the Warner Bros. marketing department. Coming off last Summer’s disappointingPacific Rim, Warner Bros. opted to pitch Godzilla first-and-foremost as a disaster movie (instead of a monster movie). Advertisements hid the title character—and avoided even mentioning the other monsters—and instead put an emphasis on the human impact of large-scale destruction. Much of this was hung on Bryan Cranston‘s character, who was positioned as the movie’s focal point; while that was very misleading, it was also highly effective. [Box Office Mojo]

The Atlanta filmed production, Million Dollar Arm didn’t reach expectations in the box-office despite receiving high reviews. Million Dollar Arm earned $10.5 million, last weekend falling short in comparison to previous baseball movies Trouble with the Curve ($12.2 million) and Moneyball ($19.5 million). People may just not be interested in baseball movies.

End of Net Neutrality? AT&T is Going to Buy DirecTV for $67 Billion Dollars

AT&T is on it’s way to communication domination.

The telephone company is looking to pay $67 Billion dollars for the purchase of DirecTV.

AT&T have reached an agreement for $95 a share for the satellite TV company, according to a recent report.

In the deal, AT&T will pay DirecTV shareholders $95 per share, valuing the satellite TV service provider at $48.5 billion. Including DirecTV’s debt, the total transaction’s value is about $67 billion.

The merger was approved by both companies’ boards Sunday, and is the latest example of consolidation in the TV-telecommunications sector. With steaming and wireless technology spreading and redrawing traditional service arrangements, telecoms are looking to gain customers and control content, while cable and satellite providers are looking to add product options and boost revenues [TheWrap].

This will allow for AT&T to provide television services through fiber-optics with U-Verse and satellite programming with DirecTV.

However, before the deal can go through it must be approved by federal regulators.

The last time a major acquisition such as this occurred when T-Mobile was purchased by Sprint. The deal was later rejected by Federal regulators as many argued that it was the start of a corporate monopoly.

It is too early to tell how this will affect consumers, if the deal does go through. But, many argue that this will mark the end of net neutrality.
