Additonally, online-visitors can pick their nominees in four new categories including "Favorite Line", "Best Cameo", "Best Music Movement" and "Best Dressed". These nominees will be announced as late as 5/23.

Grinch video and DVD coming upco
reports that "The Grinch" will be on video and DVD this November 20th. And just like last year, Universal will launch a huge marketing promotion -- more "Grinch" memorabilia! - which follows the release date. Universal snagged Hershey Foods, Wendy's, First Book and Heinz North America as their promotional partners. An example of such promotion is Heinz introducing bottles of green ketchup, the same color as the Grinch. Don't be confused with "Shrek"'s green ketchup promotion.
However, "The Grinch" will be slightly expensive. The 10 million video and 5 million DVDs will be at least $2 more than the sale-price of $24.98.

Catching up again Y
They have new pictures there :) Cool as always
You've seen its facade and now, thanks to Anne & Jenn, behold the beautiful Art Deco style interior of the Majestic, built at the Humboldt County fairgrounds:
The Majestic is being reborn and Ferndale Fritz and David LaRue's cameras captured several beautiful views of the refurbished theater. Notice also the small areas still looking old, probably for scene purposes:
Go to jco for some juicy anekdotes :).

JCO also reports a very funny anecdote:
«I'm working at the set of "The Majestic" being filmed in Ferndale. Carrey was eating lunch right in the window of the restaurant while a dozen lookie-lou's craned their necks down the street to get a peek at Carrey or any of the co-stars.
The best part is the restaurant was right behind the lookie-lou's!
Three teenage girls and one teenage boy gave up and walked away. The boy saw Carrey in the window and pointed him out to the girls.
Carrey's security diverted them by pointing out "That ain't him that's his stand-in" and the teenagers agreed that wasn't him and walked away.
Too bad, it WAS Carrey.» and they also report that
"It's good to be king!" -- and it's also good to be Army Archerd. The senior Variety columnist got to talk with Frank Darabont on "The Majestic" set in Ferndale and published on today's column some very flattering comments from the director regarding Jim Carrey's performance in the movie.
According to Darabont, Jim Carrey is "the most committed actor I've ever seen. When he shows up on the set it starts vibrating. He took my breath away." The director also added that "the movie is wonderfully Capra-esque. I've always seen Jimmy Stewart in Jim Carrey. He's such a fan of his and loves his movies. We really vibe'd."
Archerd also found out that another LA scene already shot took place at the Formosa Cafe, a legendary artists hang-out, located near the Warner Hollywood Studios in Santa Monica Boulevard. In this scene Carrey's character is in a deep emotional turmoil, having lost in the same day his job and his girlfriend. Darabont said to the columnist on the subject that "Jim did a beautiful job -- one he's not been given the opportunity to do."

and Ferndale Fritz reports...
«Thursday's filming was almost exclusively the town council meeting. Harry & Pete were put right at the top of the agenda when they walked in. Pete announced that restoring the Majestic was going to take a lot of work, and asked permission to scrounge around town for things he might need..paint, brushes, lightbulbs, etc. The council agreed to support the project, with the condition, rather wryly put in by one of the members, that no city monies be spent. Townsfolk were also asked to volunteer to help.
It was a brief scene, perhaps 3 minutes long at most, all shot indoors at the Masonic lodge, but there were many, many takes all day long.» and even MORE reporting...
Here's a few details on this week's shoot courtesy of our Anonymous correspondent, Ferndale Fritz and Gary Franklin: Although a big scene in the cemetary complete with a band and about 200 extras was planned for Monday, the weather didn't allow for the schedule to be carried out as expected. A rainy day paused exterior filming and made production move to the Ferndale Fairgrounds where the interior sets are located. About a half-day's work was done there and everyone was excused after the lunch break.
Then the 5th of April, Ferndale Fritz told JCO that there was a good probability that some filming at the Masonic Lodge building would occur:
«It looks like there will be some "town hall interior" shooting today. The Masonic Lodge building's main hall has been set up as a town meeting-room. It's located diagonally across the street from "Town Hall" so it will be an easy transition from entering the front doors of the town hall facade, to being in the meeting room.»
And although his camera's flash was uncooperative, he still managed to take a couple pictures of the building, and its interior ready for the shoot:
-- With many Spanks to Anonymous, Ferndale Fritz and Gary Franklin for keeping us all updated on the progresses of "The Majestic" production.
Pfiew. Have I catched up now?
Jim yet again! O
Another Jim Pic! A
Ohhh how I envy all those people there in Ferndale.
