Pedro Passes on News About... Pedro

Very few in HTG Hollywood would argue that Pedro of Baseball Mogul Productions isn't the most active citizen in the city. With the first week of his X-Files movie in the past, it's time for Pedro to move on to his next projects. And it's time for him to still benefit from old ones.

Television network G4 has scored the exclusive broadcast rights to three Baseball Moguls films. The upcoming LA Noire 2, plus past releases Scream and Lost, have been issued to G4 for for a collective $30 million dollars. G4 and Pedro of Baseball Mogul Productions think this will benefit both sides of the deal. Pedro is also very happy his films will run on TV screens, especially with a great network like G4. Baseball Mogul looks forward to working with G4 on future projects.

Pedro has also added two more friendly talents to his pool. Thanks to successful movies Cabin in the Middle of Nowhere, Writer’s Block and I Know What You Did Last Summer, actors Chace Crawford and Blake Lively have joined the largest collection of friendly talents in the city. Who will be next?

He Almost Looks Like an Actor Playing an Actor Playing Howard Hughes. Go Figure.

According to a source at Miracle Pictures Studio, Bryan Bishop is nearing completion of his first draft for Wild Horses, a James Franco/Kat Dennings drama. Franco is said to portray "a jealous ex-husband alcoholic actor who gets doped up and taken hostage." No other details have been given.

Wild Horses will continue a line of successful Bishop productions with Miracle Pictures, including character comedy Until Five and horror Scream Bloody Murder. No release date has been discussed yet for WH.

NBA to Big Screen?

According to party goers at an HTG Hollywood nightspot, producer/studio co-chief Ritchie Steven is in talks with none other than Shaquille O'Neal to star in a new drama tentatively titled "Long Island at Heart." Shaq would portray a man who moves from his beloved New York to Los Angles and soon finds himself at the wrong end of some rumors.

"It's a natural!" exclaimed a delighted film fan when she heard the news. "He was great in Married With Children. This seems like it would be the bestest movie ever!"

According to the HTGmdb, Shaq has not appeared in an HTG film. Oddly enough, RS does not have an HTG movie credit for two years.

Calls to Flip Brothers Studio were not answered as of this writing.

Horror Film Utilizes Recording Studio (From Lucian)

Ship of Fooles and Aurora Productions have released a soundtrack to the upcoming Nightmare 3: The Final Nightmare. The songs have a certain, literal bent to them. You can tell what the film is about from the titles alone.

"Nightmare" - Tuesday Knight
"Don't Be Afraid of Your Dreams" - Go West
"Are You Ready for Freddy" - The Fat Boys
"Dream On" - Aerosmith
"Dream Warriors" - Dokken
"All I Have to Do Is Dream" - The Everly Brothers

Is this truly the last film in Dartcher's series? It will feature Jodie Foster in the lead role. Crispin Glover returns as Freddy and Clive Owen is back as well. Owen's TS just keeps going up. Will this film make the grade? Emma Watson returns as well, but she's relegated to supporting status outside of the top 4.

Nightmare 3 opens August 12th.

Director Acts Out Scene From Duchovny Porn Collection, Gets Angry at Crowd for Making Unauthorized Videos of Presentation

During a recent press conference held at the Miracle Pictures Studio lot, director JJ Abrams discussed how odd it was working on the set of The X-Files: Take No Prisoners.

"It was a weird, wild ride" Abrams commented. "Working on the adaptation of the iconic TV series was a dream. Mystery, drama, some special effects. Really fun stuff. But working with Pedro? Man, that was a trip."

According to a source from the production, Baseball Mogul Productions chief Pedro would often visit the shooting with his entourage of trained pets in tow. On one particular day, according to the insider, Pedro had taught two large ducks to play table tennis. While actors David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson attempted to deliver serious lines, the birds would be playing on the table adjacent to the set, quacking with each point scored.

"It was very distracting" Abrams stated. "But that was just a minor problem compared to one of Pedro's chimpanzees. It... he?... kept moving lights. When asked to remove the animal from the set, Pedro would just reply 'Cha, JJ. Cha.'"

The filming of the new X-Files film did complete, however, after a year-long wait from Miracle Pictures.

"It's the first of a series of X-Files movies," a studio representative explained. "With the first film the standards are all there. Mulder, Scully, an investigation into something strange. It takes place after the conclusion of the series. The next film centers on a new agent. A new X-Files world will gradually be introduced. We're all very excited to have the options on these projects."

The X-Files: Take No Prisoners opens on August 26.

My Mom's Dog Doesn't Fart, But It Sure Pees a Lot. If He Were a Knight of the Round Table, He'd Be Sir Peesalot. Werd.

10K Cases producer Bryan Bishop is on a roll with two new films hitting HTG theatres this month. Sepulveda and Fart Dogs: An Until 5 Adventure are scheduled to finish off July. What's next for the Best Producer winner?

This news source sent a reporter to check on future movies from 10K Cases at their office, located just behind the billboard marketing Magi After Shave. Our investigator was able to make several pages of notes, but unfortunately dropped them once he returned to the Happ offices. But, thanks to some logic and finger crossing, we have put together a pretty good guess on what's next for 10K Cases.

With the success of Pedro's dog Amy in HTG Hollywood, Bishop is hoping to get the same success for his own dog, Laserbomb. A series of Laserbomb features will have the dog and movie owner, the father from Everybody Hates Chris, solve crimes and save various damsels in distress.

"That makes perfect sense" commented Bob, a longtime reporter for Happening. "I'm sure he'll throw in a nice soundtrack and an appearance by some hot actress. I'll make sure to give it a 9."

Sepulveda opens next week, with Fart Dogs being released the week after.
