August 3, 2013 Michelle L. Mattock Leave a comment

Fans of The Walking Dead, there is a new video out from AMC! It shows the cast behind the scenes of season 4. It seems there is much to look forward to, such as farm lands, larger hoards of walkers, and an immense threat on their newly home-sweet-home-like prison.

Season 4 picks up as season 3 did, after winter has passed. In that time, the prison has changed quite a bit, which you can preview in the video. Oh yeah…. spoiler alert! Glen and Maggie get it on!

Season 4 episode 1 airs on AMC, October 13th at 9PM.

Sherlock Season Three Teaser Trailer…FINALLY!!

August 3, 2013 Amanda Broyles Leave a comment

You want to see the ultimate difference between fans of American shows and fans of British shows? Look at the Sherlock fandom. There have only been two seasons composed of a paltry three episodes (granted they are each 80+ minutes) each, yet Sherlock fans are rabid. They discuss and dissect every aspect from those six episodes as if they are a lifeblood. They pledge allegiance to the show’s stars, Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman as if they were demi-gods.

Need further proof? ‘The Reichenbach Fall’ aired in the US on May 20th. 2012. That’s right, it has been over a year since the last episode aired and you would never guess judging by the amount of buzz surrounding the show to this day.

However, today all of our patience is paid off, even if just the tiniest bit. That’s right, it’s a Sherlock season three teaser trailer!

This feeling can not be put into words so I offer this humble gif in hopes that it conveys the emotions currently felt.

Take solace in this little tidbit Sherlock fans, for we have yet awhile to wait. Season three premieres on PBS in “early 2014”. Hopefully there will be more trailers forthcoming to tide us over.

Dylan Bruce: Orphan Black Actor to Guest on Arrow, Hopefully Shirtless

August 2, 2013 Amanda Broyles Leave a comment

If you watch Orphan Black, you are already familiar with Dylan Bruce. If you don’t watch the show, well then immediately head over and read our Top Ten Reasons You Should Be Watching Orphan Black.

Now that everyone is on the same page… today’s news. Dylan Bruce is coming to Arrow!

He’ll be Laurel’s newest coworker which sounds like a nice job but let’s remember what happens to pretty much everyone in Laurel’s life. It’s not pretty. Dylan Bruce will be making his stay in Starling City a short one, only appearing in two episodes at some point in the upcoming season. Before you get your hopes up – no, Dylan Bruce is unlikely to be the new Barry Allen. While Flash is coming to Arrow, Bruce is playing a character named Adam Donner.

The real question is this… who does shirtless better? Stephen Amell or Dylan Bruce? You be the judge.

If this season is anything like last season, this newest casting update is just the latest in what will be a long line of casting updates so stayed tuned here to Grizzly Bomb as we bring you all the Arrow news you could hope for.

Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa – It’s Real!

August 2, 2013 ryancroftj Leave a comment

When Paramount announced a few weeks back that a film was being made based on the Johnny Knoxville grandpa skit in the Jackass series, the question everyone was asking was, could the gag last for a full feature-length film? While that’s still to be seen, I can say that after a two and half-minute trailer, I can’t wait to see more. Borat-esque in its format, the film follows Irving Zisman, who is the grandpa played by Johnny Knoxville, on a cross-country trip through what looks to be a partially scripted, but mostly hidden camera type film. Directed by Jeff Tremaine (Jackass Trilogy), if you liked the previous iterations in the franchise, I think you’ll like it here, check out the trailer.

I gotta say, besides for the ending that is a hidden cam take on the classic Little Miss Sunshine scene, I think this could be a guilty pleasure to most. The kid, played by Jackson Nicholl, looks to fit in perfectly with Knoxville’s shenanigans, and is reminiscent of what Andy Milonakis used to do. Again, the ending scene seemed really scripted, and since it’s been done, I don’t find it funny, but the rest looked pretty damn hilarious. Hopefully, the latter is more telling of the actual film.

Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa is due out October 25, which could be good counter programming to Ridley Scott’s dark thriller The Counselor, releasing on the same day. Check out the trailer for that right here.

Parks and Recreation to Say Goodbye to Rashida Jones and Rob Lowe

August 1, 2013 Amanda Broyles Leave a comment

That sound you heard was that of Leslie Knope wailing in grief at the thought of Ann Perkins leaving Pawnee. That’s right folks, Ann Perkins and Chris Traeger are making plans to leave the best city in America for parts unknown. It was announced yesterday that Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones would be leaving the NBC sitcom after episode 13 of the upcoming season.

Because plenty of people can not fathom why on earth the actors would leave the show, speculation immediately began that they were being forced out due to budget cuts. Mike Schur took to the press to assure everyone that this was not the case.

[box_light]Every network comes to you and says, ‘Cut costs,’ all the time. A reality of the network television game is they’ll always tell you to do impossible things with less and less money. But it wasn’t like, ‘Uh oh, we’ve got to hack away our cast.’[/box_light]

Rashida-Jones-and-Rob-Lowe-as-Ann-and-Chris-on-Parks-and-Rec

Schur is currently in New York at the Television Critics Association press event for his upcoming Brooklyn Nine-Nine starring Andy Samberg, but understandably, people want to know more about this departure. Mainly because it was so unexpected. Most of the time when an actor leaves a show there are rumblings and rumors swirling about for weeks, if not months. Contract disputes, rehab stints, scandal or discord of various other fashions. This time however, there was nothing.

Schur has been assuring people that this is truly a creative move with Jones and Lowe’s story line coming to an inevitable and obvious close. The two characters spent the latter parts of last season discussing having a child together so one has to assume they will be successful, and something will then take them away from Pawnee.

Mike Schur and NBC can try to calmly and rationally explain the reasons till they are blue in the face. Parks and Recreation fans are mourning. At times quite loudly. Granted I am a proud member of the NBC fandom, but my entire dashboard is filled with pictures like these.
