Wayward Pines debuts on Fox at 9p tonight and it is from M Night Shyamalan. What more do I need to tell you not to watch, then that is from M Night Shyamalan. Let’s be honest with each other, every he movie he did besides The Sixth Sense sucked. Wayward Pines is a little different than Signs, The Happening and The Village, in the way that you find out why it sucks 5 episodes in and you don’t have to wait until the ending of the movie to be disappointed.
Ethan Burke (Matt Dillon) is a secret service agent who is looking for agent Kate Hewson (Carla Gugino) his partner who went missing. He wakes up from a car accident in Wayward Pines and now he can’t leave. In fact no one from the town can leave and no one can talk about their past.
Why do they have these new lives? Why can’t they leave? What is happening here? What is the creature that terrifies them all? It’s M Knight Shyamalan, of course there is a stupid creature, what did you think he would do a project without one? Anyways, all of that will be answered in the next few episodes.
But I have a feeling you won’t get to that point because the show is so dark (as in the way it is filmed) and boring, you will remove it from your DVR before then. I personally don’t know how I made it through the five episodes that they sent out.
The biggest atrocity about this show, is not how awful it is. It is that Matt Dillon comes off as a horrible actor. Maybe for years, I have been picturing him as the man I enjoyed watching in Little Darlings, The Outsider and Flamingo Kid to name a few, and never realized he couldn’t act to save himself. Or maybe that was the direction he was told to go in for this show. I don’t know what it is, but I will think it is the latter.
Another huge problem I have with the show, is there is a death in the coming weeks where someone has their neck slashed from ear to ear and you hear and almost see the near decapitation. Something that is normally reserved for horrible horror movies and can only be shown on pay cable channels like HBO and Showtime. It is so not for broadcast TV.
Finally, Terrence Howard is on the show, and had Wayward Pines aired before Empire; I am not sure Empire would’ve done as well. That is how awful his character is on this atrocious show.
So consider this warning and do with it what you want, but don’t watch this show. It is not worth a single minute of your time.
It has been two years since Entourage said goodbye to the small screen and now they are saying hello to the big screen. Jeremy Piven aka Ari Gold Tweeted this picture of himself with E (Kevin Connolly), Vinnie (Adrian Grenier) and Drama (Kevin Dillon) together again in Miami as they start filming the much anticipated movie.
So does seeing the Entourage (minus Turtle) back together again get you even more excited for the feature film?
Matt Dillon was arrested in Vermont for speeding according to WCAX.
State Police stopped Matt Dillon, who was traveling 106 miles per hour on Interstate 91 in Newbury. He is due in court next month to answer to a charge of excessive speed.
Poor Matt, what a sad reason to be arrested. Well on a positive note he gets another ski trip next month. UPDATE: E! posted the mug shot
Matt Dillon might not look as good as he did when he did Little Darlings and The Flamingo Kid, but considering he is 44 The Flamingo Man looks great without a shirt.
People who went to the Entourage are talking about how much the party stunk the other night and the cause of the stench was Matt Dillon according to The Sun. One of the partygoers said, “His body odour was so rank it almost made me gag. It was definitely him. As soon as he raised his arm to put it around my shoulder I was unfortunate to be face level with his stinky pit. Ooof.” Ewwww. I never understand in this day and age how people can go out without deodorant. I have a friend who showers everyday, but doesn't use deodorant and man it is not a pretty smell. I wish I could say something to her, but how to broach the subject?
BTW here is an old list of Hollywood's smelliest celebs which some day will include Matt Dillon:
#1. Brad Pitt #2. Russell Crowe #3. Hayden Christensen #4. David Bowie #5. Courtney Cox #6. Robin Williams #7. Christina Aguillera #8. Cameron Diaz #9. Metallica #10. Bob Dylan The only one not on there that is rumored to smell is Sting.
