Microsoft has been making some negotiations with TV networks in order to create an online pay-television system possibly trough the Xbox system. Microsoft plans to establish a monthly fee, The system will work similarly like other systems such as Google TV, and Netflix. Some of the difference will be off course the visual components that Xbox can offer, plus the new motion technologies where people can operate their TV with out having to use an actual remote controller, rather people will use their own hands help by the motion sensor the Xbox has.

Harry Potter Hits #1

Harry Potter and the Deatlhy Hallows-Part 1 managed to hold the Number 1 spot over the three-day weekend grossing around 50.3 million. It did better than the Twilights in a five day week. Next in line was Tangled holding the Number 2 to spot grossing around 49.1 million. I am not a fan of Harry Potter, but I guess I don't need to be for it do exceedingly well. Megamind and Burlesque came in holding the third and fourth spot with just around 12 million. Leaving Unstoppable with the great Denzel Washington at the Number 5 spot with just a little under 12 million.

Do You Love A TV Show...That Everyone Else Hates...

Fox won't be ordering more episodes of Running Wilde. The show was not perfect by a long-shot, its whole idea of adding a bit of a comedic side like Arrested Development sitcom just didn't work. I never watched the show to ever know if I would be interested in anything like that. However, occassionally I do find myself watching shows when I do get the chance to watch a little tv from the big four networks, and I fall into the same issue...watching a show that everyone else hates. It's a little sad. What can I say, tv shows ratings are truly based on the audience's preference. I guess there is not too many cool people in the world like I thought haha. What do you think???

Which Movie Are You Seeing This Weekend???

A long holiday weekend and catching a movie at your nearest theatre are like two peas in a pot. Luckily, there were four movies to choose from: Burlesque, Love and Other Drugs, Faster, and Tangled. Tangeled is the spin on Rupunzel's fairy tale and is said to win you over towards the end. Love and Other Drugs didnt go over well for some, but for some they might be drying tears while the others are rolling them. Burlesque is the rehashing of Showgirls and to some not really believeable. Faster is is awfully simple minded. If you have seen any of these movies, tell me your idea of the whole movie seen or what you think it will be like if you have not yet seen it or have no intentions?

Pop Star and Teen Heartthrob Justin Bieber To Appear on the Next Episode of BET's "Being Terry Kennedy," Tuesday, November 23 at 10 P.M. Read more: B

Justin Beiber is scheduled to appear on the next episode of "Being Terry Kennedy" on BET tonight. Being Terry Kennedy is a show about an ambitious professional skater/entrepreneur. Beieber is said to land a few skate tricks himself on tonight's episode. I haven't ever watched an episode and I don't know about everyone else but if the ratings for this show are as low as I'm sure they are, having Beiber on tonight will definitely boost ratings especially after his huge win as vocalist of the year. So check it out guys, and who knows, maybe this show will stay on for another season.
