The Candy mailbag: Answering your questions
Before we begin, I'd like to point out that RollingStone.com has posted its new cover story about Johnny Depp. That should ease some of our Friday tensions.
But back to your questions -- submit them via e-mail or the comments section. What I don't get to this week I'll save for next Friday.
Awhile back, you posted a link to a game where they showed you a scene without faces, and you had to guess the movie. Could you repost that link? -- Blakelyn S.
Ah, you're thinking about Invisibles. I love that game, though I'm still not very good at it!
I saw that you mentioned Entourage in one of your recent chats. Are you a fan of the show? If so, would you be as excited as I would be about a real Queens Boulevard movie? -- Matt F.
I am a fan of Entourage, and the show continues to get better each season. This year they're really letting Jeremy Piven run wild with his role, so it's worth watching just to see him in action.
I don't know if I'd dig a Queens Boulevard flick or not, since it's hard to determine what that movie was actually about. I got the impression the director was sort of a Quentin Tarantino/Robert Rodriguez hybrid with a hefty chunk of L.A. attitude thrown in. I'm up for anything different on the big screen, though Adrian Grenier's bit part in The Devil Wears Prada did not convince me that he deserves to be a real-life movie star.
I watched the pilot for Nobody's Watching on YouTube. It wasn't the best show ever, but it was better than a lot of the shows that get on air. I looked online for a cast list, but had no luck. Do you know the names of the actors/actresses from the pilot? -- Jon G.
It's a good pilot, and by now it's been seen by more people than some shows that actually make it on the air. For more info, check out this IMDB thread about the cast. (You may have to register to see it, but registration is pretty painless.) Also, this thread was tracking the show's production and may contain a few more bits of info. Hope that helps.
