E! Network lines up Tons of New Shows


 
 
E! Network who has been known to be the platform for many no name people including the Kardashians is about to freshen up their line up. The mega network is soon to acquire a bucket load of brand new shows including reality shows based on a country singer, boy band, and even to WWE Divas. E! had it's official reveal party this past Monday night and all the future stars of E! were out celebrate. One show that seemed interesting to me is a documentary entitled ''Inner Circle'' that will be based on celebrities looking back into their family tree finding out long lost family secrets. Other than that I'm not that into reality shows and the E! network in general. Although I'm sure many people who are fans will find this amusing at the most.

Scary Movie V Bombs




Scary Movie 5 proved itself to be a franchise that probably wasn’t worth reviving. Funny; A Haunted House was a modest hit and Scary Movie 5 bombs. Seems the Wayans Bros. finally got their revenge against Dimension. Back in 2006, Scary Movie 4 opened to over $40 million. Seven years later, Scary Movie 5 could only lure in $15 million. So why exactly did the film do so bad? Was it the lack of franchise star Anna Faris? Did audiences already get their fill of horror movie spoofing with A Haunted House? Were viewers put off by a marketing campaign built around Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan? Whatever the reason may be, the horrible reviews it got from critics could be a large reason.

McDonald's Apologizes for Unapproved Ad That Mocks Mental Illness PSAs









Last month, Ford made headlines for an allegedly unapproved ad featuring Silvio Berlusconi with a trunk full of gagged, hog tied, and crying women. The ad, found as a poster on the Boston metro, parodied mental health and depression PSAs: "You're not alone. Million of people love the Big Mac," the ad reads, next to the photo of a crying woman and an 800-number that connects to McDonald's corporate office. The McDonald's advertisement in question is part of a larger, unapproved, campaign that pokes fun at stereotypical subway ads. The personal injuries lawyer ad promises to "get you the sausage you deserve." The continuing education spoof reads, "It's never too late for an Angus Bacon Cheese."
Oh, McDonalds.

School shootings


 
 
 
Whenever you hear about school shootings you automatically think it's tragic. Apparently someone brought a rifle to a college nearby to the school in which I attend. I'm pretty sure there could very well be more to the story than I know. Anyways, school safety is always important. Believe it or not one time in elementary school I had a water gun which I was going to bring for recess and nearly got tackled completely on the ground by a teacher. Talk about the embarrassment she and I both had when it was revealed that it was a plastic water gun. Either way guns in school is horrible and has costed the lives of many innocent people. I can only hope these school shootings can only stop from now.
If you have ever known someone or been in a similar situation, sound off in the comments.
