Movie Trivia Notes

"Bad Movies/Good Cameos:



"Twilight" (1998)   [view trailer]
Directed by Robert Benton.

Starring : Paul Newman , Susan Sarandon , Gene Hackman , Stockard Channing , James Garner , Liev Schrieber , Clint Howard (Ron Howard 's younger brother) and…….a Reese Witherspoon semi-cameo as Mel Amos…. a little rich girl lost in Puerto Vallarta (Musical score by Elmer Bernstein).

Reason to see this dull crime drama with an ensemble of great stars??????? You get an undeniably full frontal nude shot of Reese being rescued by Paul Newman….who stares at her nakedness in disbelief!!!!!




"Dead Pool" (1988)   [view trailer]
Directed by Buddy Van Horn.

Starring : Clint Eastwood , Patricia Clarkson , Liam Neeson , Slash /Izzy /Axl (from "Guns n Roses") and….. a Jim Carrey semi-cameo as Johnny Squares…..as a freaked out methed up rock star filming a video called "Satan's Hotel" in San Francisco. (Musical score by Lalo Schifrin).

Reason to see this dull crime drama with an ensemble of great stars???????? Just to see the hair and make-up on Jim Carrey as he is dancing erratically to "Welcome to the Jungle" (and watching him shoot up would deter anyone from becoming a junkie)!!!!!




"Busty Cops" (2003)
Directed by Jim Wynorski.

Starring : J. Nichole Italiano-Zazu , Angela Little , Sharon Wild , Allysin Chaynes , Angel Cassidy , Samantha Phillips and….Jesse Jane semi-cameo as Officer Chloe of the "Busty Cops" squad (Musical score by Olive KatZen).



Reason to see this most played late night cable soft porn B flick with a cast of daunting double "D"s doing lesbian faux sex ??????? Jesse Jane ! She was the infamous girlfriend of Tommy Lee (Motley Crue - "Tommy Lee Goes to College") and Home wrecker to Pam Anderson (Tommy's baby's Mama - " Stacked ") you get to see how immature and inane a bunch of large breasted women can be and at the end of this movie, just before the cute banter over the credits, you get to hear the "worst song in the world"….."Love my Galaxy - Massage my Nebula" being sung to hot action in front of a fireplace!!!!!

Enjoy!

Hurricane Katrina

Relief Efforts

Celebrities including Ellen DeGeneres, Jay Leno, Master P and Dave Matthews are contributing star power to relief efforts for victims of Hurricane Katrina.

DeGeneres, a New Orleans native whose 82-year-old aunt, cousins and friends had their Gulf Coast homes destroyed, has taped an episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" dedicated to discussion of the devastation. It will air Monday, the start of the syndicated talk show's third season.

Beginning Tuesday, Jay Leno will ask his "Tonight Show" guests to sign a Harley-Davidson motorcycle that will be put up for bid later this month on the eBay Internet auction site.

Master P, whose house in New Orleans was destroyed, has formed a foundation called Team Rescue to "save the neighborhood and rebuild our communities." The rapper was still looking Thursday for missing family members in the New Orleans area.

The Dave Matthews Band, which has played at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, announced a Sept. 12 benefit concert in Denver.

Alan Jackson, Keith Urban and Alison Krauss will perform a Grand Ole Opry benefit concert in Nashville, Tenn., on Sept. 27. It will air live on cable network Great American Country.

Velvet Revolver will play a benefit concert at the Orlando, Fla., Hard Rock live concert venue. The rock band had been scheduled to perform at the Sept. 9 opening of the Hard Rock in Biloxi, Miss. - which was damaged severely in the hurricane.

Jazz will also get into the act. Wynton Marsalis, Bill Cosby, Elvis Costello and Diana Krall will perform the Higher Ground Hurricane Relief Benefit Concert for Jazz at Lincoln Center Sept. 17 in New York.

Chris Rock, Stevie Wonder, Jay-Z, Diddy, Russell Simmons, Wynton Marsalis and Master P will participate in a telethon Sept. 9 on BET.

The Rolling Stones, Neil Young, Green Day, Paul McCartney, Kanye West, Brian Wilson, Sheryl Crow, Ludacris, Gretchen Wilson, Usher, Alicia Keys, John Mellencamp and Rob Thomas are set to appear on a Sept. 10 special that will air on MTV, VH1 and CMT.

Name-Calling In Israel

Daniel Barenboim

Israel's education minister on Friday denounced Daniel Barenboim as a "real anti-Semite" after the conductor refused to grant an interview to an Israel Army Radio reporter during a book launching because she wore a military uniform.

The Jewish conductor was approached Thursday by reporter Dafna Arad during a promotional event for a book he wrote with the late Palestinian intellectual Edward Said.

Barenboim's snub outraged Education Minister Limor Livnat, who denounced the conductor as "a real Jew-hater, a real anti-Semite."

Barenboim, who was born in Argentina and raised in Israel, has had frequent spats with Israel's government. Last year, he angered officials when he criticized the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza as he accepted the prestigious Wolf Prize in a speech to Israel's parliament.

Aid Efforts Halt Memphis Auditions

'American Idol'

Auditions for "American Idol" scheduled for Monday have been canceled, with producers citing the extensive Hurricane Katrina relief efforts being coordinated in the city.

Fox publicist Alex Gillespie said the auditions planned at the FedEx Forum won't be rescheduled so the city "can focus public safety efforts on the victims."

Auditions are still scheduled for Denver on Sept. 11 and Chicago on Sept. 16. The next season of "American Idol" will begin in January 2006.

Three DVD Editions

'Titanic'

Three different editions of "Titanic" will be released October 25 on DVD, but only one will be available for U.S. consumers.

A three-disc "special collector's edition" of the world's biggest movie will only be issued in the U.S., Japan and Korea, said Thomas Lesinksi, president of worldwide home entertainment at Paramount Pictures.

"Titanic" fans in Europe, Australia and Latin America will get to choose between a two-disc special edition and a four-disc "deluxe collector's edition."

All three DVD editions feature a nine-minute alternate ending to the film, which has never been seen before; a branching feature that lets viewers access 50 minutes of behind-the-scenes footage as they watch the movie; and three new commentaries, one from director James Cameron, one from cast and crew and a third that takes a historical look at the real-life sinking of the luxury ocean liner.

Sues Car Dealership Over Ads

Snoop Dogg

Snoop Dogg is seeking $2 million from a car dealership that he accuses of having misappropriated his image and speech pattern in its advertisements.

In a lawsuit filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court, the 33-year-old rapper, born Calvin Broadus, alleges that the Gary Barbera Enterprises ads constitute trademark infringement since they use verbiage that is "confusingly similar to the Snoop Dogg trademark."

The ads show Snoop next to the words "Is Bar-BIZZLE The SH-izzle?" One ad is similar to his line in a recent Chrysler TV commercial with Lee Iacocca: "If the ride is more fly, then you must buy."

Sued Over bin Laden Footage

ABC News

An Egyptian cameraman has sued ABC News for copyright infringement, claiming that rare footage he shot of Saudi-born al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan during the 1980s was used by the network without his permission.

In a suit filed August 31 in U.S. District Court in Denver and made public this week, Essam Mohamed Aly Deraz seeks $10 million in damages and to bar ABC from further use of the still photos and video pictures that he took "at great risk to his personal safety."

Deraz, who lives in Cairo, claims that in 1998 ABC News paid him a total of $15,000 to twice air the images on a "limited basis" but continued to use the pictures without his permission.

Ron Popeil, the storied television pitchman who has peddled vegetable choppers and tabletop rotisserie ovens with the persuasiveness of a modern-day P.T. Barnum, has decided to sell his company - not for $20 million, or $30 million or even $50 million.

He has sold out for the amazing price of $56.5 million.

But wait, there's more!

The company, Chatsworth-based Ronco Corp., has also gone public and is set to expand.

Turns 70

Seiji Ozawa

For a couple of weeks in late summer each year, the small Japanese mountain town of Matsumoto becomes the kind of place where even the taxi drivers talk classical music.

The reason is simple -- Seiji Ozawa.

The tousle-headed maestro, who turned 70 on Thursday, became music director of the Vienna State Opera in 2002 after almost three decades in a similar job at the Boston Symphony Orchestra. He spends most of his year conducting the best-known musicians in the United States and Europe.

But he sets aside the end of summer to return to his native Japan and conduct part of the program at the Saito Kinen festival, the country's biggest event for Western classical music, held in Matsumoto, some 180 km (110 miles) northwest of Tokyo.

Ozawa draws musicians from all over the world to an event he established in honor of his former music teacher, Hideo Saito, in 1992. The festival is also a magnet for local people, who swarm to it to work as volunteer drivers, guides and back-office staff, offer to play host to foreign musicians or simply soak up the wealth of performances on offer.

This is one of the images in a new shock advertising campaign that art officials hope will scare Italians into helping maintain the country's vast cultural heritage. The foundation is asking citizens to make donations to help safeguard the cultural heritage. Overwhelmed by the cultural riches of its churches, museums and monuments, the country suffers from chronically skimpy funds to safeguard its heritage.

Surprise! Abstinence Only Doesn't Work

Timken High School

Thirteen percent of the female students at Timken Senior High School in Ohio are pregnant. High school senior Monica Selby thought she would be busy this year planning for college, not preparing for the birth of her first child.

The statistic at the school in the heart of this old steel city contrasts with a decade of declining teen pregnancy rates nationwide. But teen pregnancy experts say the problem is not exclusive to Timken High.

Joanne Hinton, whose 16-year-old daughter, Raechel Hinton, is eight months pregnant, said she believes the school's abstinence-based sex education program isn't enough.

Abstinence-based programs have been growing nationwide at schools over the past few years. In Ohio, the Bush's administration and the state's health department have awarded $32 million in grants to Ohio agencies for abstinence education since 2001.

Uses Fish to Catch Seagulls

Clever Whale

An enterprising young killer whale at Marineland has figured out how to use fish as bait to catch seagulls - and shared his strategy with his fellow whales.

Michael Noonan, a professor of animal behavior at Canisius College in Buffalo, N.Y., made the discovery by accident while studying orca acoustics.

First, the young whale spit regurgitated fish onto the surface of the water, then sank below the water and waited.

If a hungry gull landed on the water, the whale would surge up to the surface, sometimes catching a free meal of his own.

In Memory

R.L. Burnside

R.L. Burnside, the Mississippi blues innovator who found new generations of fans in the 1990s by combining his gritty countrified sound with elements of indie rock, hip-hop and even electronica, died Thursday in a Memphis hospital. He was 78.

Burnside was considered one of the last great purveyors of North Mississippi hill country blues. He garnered cult-hero status in 1996, when he and his band teamed up with jam rockers the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion for A Ass Pocket of Whiskey, which successfully incorporated punk with the blues.

Two years later, he scored even more crossover success when his track "It's Bad You Know," off 1998's remix disc Come On In, was featured in the first season finale of HBO's The Sopranos and the series' subsequent soundtrack album.

Burnside launched his recording career in 1968, toiling for years in obscurity, his fame mostly confined to his home state of Mississippi. But all that changed thanks to several Fat Possum releases in the early '90s, which connected with younger musicians, particularly Blues Explosion and the Beastie Boys, who took to his droning raw riffs and adventurous boogie. Burnside would later accompany the Beasties on tour in 1998.

Born in Harmontown, Mississippi, on Nov. 21, 1926, Burnside grew up as a sharecropper and fisherman before learning the guitar from local musicians like Fred McDowell and Rainie Burnett. He eventually migrated to Chicago in the 1940s where he came under the influence of blues legends like Lightning Hopkins and Muddy Waters.

Burnside is survived by his wife, Alice Mae, 12 children and numerous grandchildren. Details on a funeral service are pending.

Welcome !


You have reached the Home page of BartCop Entertainment.
Make yourself home, take your shoes off...
Go ahead, scratch it if it itches.

The idea is to have fun.

Do you have something to say?
Anything that increased your blood pressure, or, even better, amused or entertained?

Do you have a great album no one's heard?
How about a favorite TV show, movie, book, play, cartoon, or legal amusement?
A popular artist that just plain pisses you off?
A box set the whole world should own?
Vile, filthy rumors about Republican musicians?
Just plain vile, filthy rumors?
This is your place.

(In other words, submissions are welcome.)
