New York - 1/19
Philadelphia - 1/21
Detroit - 1/23
Atlanta - 1/26
Phoenix - Jan 28
Denver - Jan 30
The show is produced by Mindless Entertainment, the folks behind "Beat the Geeks" and "The Surreal Life" (can Tammy Faye get along with Ron Jeremy?) and is hosted by "Film Threat"'s Chris Gore.
According to the website, the show works in three rounds.
In round one, you answer questions about movies. Simple enough.
In round two, you debate the pro or con of a movie-related subject. (Not sure how this is scored. Maybe "Cram" style where you get buzzed for every uh or stop?)
In round three, you show off your film collectibles collection. So, if you've got a lock of hair from everyone in the cast of "Breakin' 2 Electric Boogaloo", then I'm sure you'll get on the show.
Seems like an interesting show. Anyone going to try out for it?

SOmething like "Ultimate Film Fanatic", but replace film with "game show", might be a good balance between a game and reality show for the revamped GSN. [/quote]
NO...horrible idea. Game shows are nowhere near as broad as the film industry. And honestly, who would watch a show about mindless game show trivia?
