Behind the Scenes at the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl

SunLifeStadiumProBowlAccording to Senior Vice President of Events for the NFL, Frank Supovitz, Sun Life Stadium in Miami is spruced up for the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl. At the close of the Pro Bowl, that takes place later today, the field will be reconditioned, team emblems added, new advertising signage in place -- and all this in time for a Super Bowl press day on Tuesday February 2.

You would think, with the Pro Bowl on the previous weekend, that it would be a lengthy conversion to make the stadium ready for the Super Bowl. "It actually takes a whole lot less than a week," says Supovitz. "One of the things we did was make sure that everything we needed for the Super Bowl was already here by the time the Pro Bowl started. But we really don't have a week -- we have 36 hours (following the Pro Bowl). And the reason we only have 36 hours, is that Super Bowl media day happens this Tuesday. We want the stadium to look like it is ready for Super Bowl on Tuesday morning."

Surrogates, an Out-of-Body Experience

Info

Actors Bruce WillisRosamund Pike
Genre ThrillerAdventureSci-Fi

I think Bruce Willis is probably the best all-around film star that has survived nearly three decades without a dud.  And with Surrogates it’s a near miss.  Just eking above average, the film survives with some awesome special effects and Willis’ creative performance.  If you like science fiction that goes hyper realistic, then Surrogates should be on your DVD short list.

Tooth Fairy, a Comedy with Teeth

I am a family film lover at heart, and when they are produced well, like Tooth Fairy, I recommend them highly. The movie has a wonderful message for children who endeavor to realize their dreams and use their imagination. And although it gets a little silly, this film has a lot of good laughs, especially seeing The Rock in a tutu.

EODposterWin prizes from Warner Bros.' Edge of Darkness, in theaters January 29!

Edge of Darkness is an emotionally charged thriller set at the intersection of politics and big business. Thomas Craven (Mel Gibson) is a veteran homicide detective for the Boston Police Department and a single father. When his only child, 24 year-old Emma (Bojana Novakovic), is murdered on the steps of his home, everyone assumes that he was the target. But he soon suspects otherwise, and embarks on a mission to find out about his daughter's secret life and her killing.

His investigation leads him into a dangerous, looking-glass world of corporate cover-ups, government collusion and murder-and to shadowy government operative Darius Jedburgh (Ray Winstone), who has been sent in to clean up the evidence. Craven's solitary search for answers about his daughter's death transforms into an odyssey of emotional discovery and redemption.

poltergeist_tv_kids

All right, so we're doing something new here at ACED. Starting this week we're utilizing our epic skills as couch potatoes to share with you what we watch every night. Then you'll get an ear (eye? 0_0) full of what we thought about everything from trash TV on up to the classy stuff the very next day.

Anyone can pick up a TV Guide and decide for themselves what to watch. This guide comes with a next day 'in case-you-missed-it recap' for the DVR-challenged. This way, you'll know what's worth catching next week, what you may have missed this week, and what was worth a pass all together without wasting valuable time. Where you could be out, you know ... doing ... stuff. Unlike us here at ACED. We have no lives, so spending hours on end in front of the television for your convenience suits us fine.

The 67th Annual Golden Globes: Moments That Won & Failed

ricky67thggWe could tell, just by host Ricky Gervais' opening monologue, that the 67th Golden Globes were going to be totally ACE this year. For the most part, we were right. We laughed. We gaped in shock. We threw stuff at the TV (sad, but true). We nodded off a couple of times.

In the fourth quarter, with Indy up 17 to 16, the Saints scored on a pass from Drew Brees to Jeremy Shockey. They then went for a two-point conversion. After it was called no ...
