Peabody Awards Honors TV At Its Best

19 May 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

Thirty-nine recipients of the 72nd Annual Peabody Awards will be honored May 20 at the Waldorf-Astoria in Gotham. The Peabodys, bestowed by the U. of Georgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, cite the best in electronic media. Herewith are a few of the projects and people being honored.

The Smithsonian Channel’s “Mlk: The Assassination Tapes” couldn’t have been made if professors at Memphis State U., back in 1968, didn’t have the foresight to preserve the historic TV, radio and police-report tapes regarding the Martin Luther King assassination. Typically, those tapes were reused and hence lost.

“It was extraordinary to find this treasure trove,” says David Royle, exec VP of programming and production at the Smithsonian Channel. Equally extraordinary, filmmaker Tom Jennings “crafts a film from these tapes that is entirely dramatic and immediate, taking the reality that existed at the time and infusing it with drama and intensity. »

Marc Alan Fishman: And the Geek Shall Inherit the Earth

16 March 2013 5:00 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »

A few weeks back, an esteemed colleague of mine (oddly enough this time, not Mike Gold…) pitched a debate for my podcast: “Have nerds won? And if they have… is it a good thing?” Well, it was a great idea, and the debate on my show was fairly one sided. Now, after plenty of time to steep on the topic, I can plainly state my opinion; we have, and it is.

Before you start up your engines of flame, let me define what I deem “a nerd” and “a win”. First, I’m defining nerds/nerditry/geekdom/dorkness as a collection of science-fiction, fantasy, comic books, cartoons, or essentially any world of fiction that is heavily built on a foundation of alternative reality. If I look out into the great wide expanse of pop-culture five, ten, or twenty years prior in comparison to now, it’s clear as day to »

PopWatch Confessional: Do you cry at all the wrong movies?

21 February 2013 2:16 PM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

After seeing Safe Haven this weekend and not shedding a tear, I realized I don’t cry at Nicholas Sparks movies — even though they pull out all the stops: war, cancer, the beauty of nature, Alzheimer’s … sometimes all in the same film. Although this fills me with pride, it also makes me think about when I do cry at movies, and it turns out, the issue might be with me. So here goes my confession: I cry at all the wrong movies.

If you look through EW’s top 25 tearjerkers ever, I’ve only ever cried at two of them — Brokeback Mountain (Heath! »

Nick Cassavetes To Direct 'The Other Woman' With Cameron Diaz Rumored To Star

31 January 2013 1:30 PM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Last fall, a project entitled "The Other Woman" cropped up with Cameron Diaz linked to star, and Kristin Wiig was said to be "under consideration" for the co-starring role. And then nobody heard anything about it again. But the movie has popped back up and Diaz is back in the mix, with a director now ready to take the helm. The always unpredictable Nick Cassavetes, who tends to specialize in manipulative drama ("The Notebook," "John Q") is set to direct the movie that may reunite him with his "Your Sister's Keeper" star. Hooray? Penned by Melissa Stack -- who earned Black List attention in 2007 with "I Want To F--- Your Sister" -- the story follows a woman who realizes she's the other woman and teams up with the philandering man's wife in order to get revenge.  Diaz is not attached, nor is Wiig for that matter, but everything seems to »
