That was really interesting. I'm not a gamer but it's cool that Eliza D. is doing VO work.

I don't pay attention to Twitter at all, but I usually hear about Eliza's Dollhouse related Tweets on DH forums.

That's a pretty pic of Eliza, but I honestly don't pay attention to Maxim. But I think she deserves a top spot.

Nice!

Eliza was also in the Afterellen.com top 100.

**Hot Rod** · 05-13-2009, 05:53 PM

Not much of a surprise there. What is her spot there Nath? I hope it`s in the top 20 at least.

***Lethe's Bramble*** · 05-14-2009, 12:34 PM

Yes, she was number 14! Number 28 last year so she got some extra votes! I bet Dollhouse has something to do with that!

Kristen Stewart was number 17.

What's the Fate of Your Favorite Show?

"Dollhouse" (FOX)

FOX hasn't yet decided whether the freshman Joss Whedon series will be back again next season. The case to bring it back: The show got better as the season progressed, and despite lackluster ratings, a second season could catch fire with good word of mouth.
... moreAnd besides, is there such a thing as too much Eliza Dushku?

I'm pleasantly surprised to see Eliza up at #6.

**Hot Rod** · 05-19-2009, 04:37 PM

I am too. I had a feeling that with the publicity with Dollhouse, Eliza would be in the top 20 at least, but i didn`t think that she would be at #6. Hopefully she can finally make the top 5 next year, preferably with Olivia and Megan.

Anyway here`s a new interview with Eliza from TV Guide.com regarding Dollhouse getting a second season:

Quote:

In trumpeting Dollhouse's Season 2 pick-up, Fox entertainment president Kevin Reilly called the decision "a bet on creativity" and "a bet on Joss" — as in series creator Joss Whedon. Immediately following Fox's upfronts presentation, TVGuide.com grabbed a few minutes with Dollhouse lead Eliza Dushku to celebrate the renewal as well as the show's fans.

TVGuide.com: How did you find out about the renewal? Who told you?
Eliza Dushku: I was in Uganda the past two weeks. I landed Friday night about midnight, and when I touched down the first message was a text from Joss saying, "We're back on, kid! Get ready to raise hell!" [Laughs] It was a nice homecoming.

TVGuide.com: Kevin Reilly has been out there saying that Dollhouse's renewal is testament to Joss' loyal fanbase.
Dushku: The fans, the fans, the fans, absolutely. We are so grateful and just bowled over by the support and the love and the loyalty. We are so excited to do the second season because it took us until the last six or so episodes to hit our stride; now we get to really have some fun.

TVGuide.com: Will the "missing" 13th episode, "Epitaph One," now serve as the Season 2 premiere? Or is it still DVD-only?
Dushku: You know, I dont know. I just got off the plane, so I dont know.

TVGuide.com: "Epitaph One," which was produced on the studio's own dime, was used to convince Fox that Dollhouse can be delivered on a smaller budget. Are there any differences the viewer might pick up on?
Dushku: No, our set is pretty solid and top dollar. I think the show will continue to be visually stunning.

TVGuide.com: So, as you filmed it, you didn't pick up on anything different?
Dushku: Well, it was faster — and that's always nice!

TVGuide.com: How will Echo be different going forward, considering the events of the season finale?
Dushku: Being downloaded with all the personalities, the build-up was about Echo becoming self-aware. It will give the audience a chance to connect with Echo more, because she's not just that blank slate. There's something behind her eyes creeping out. That's the center of the show — can you really erase someone's identity? The answer seems to be no.

TVGuide.com: That was nice what Paul Ballard did for Mellie, getting her released from her contract early.
Dushku: I know, right? He's a love. We have such an amazing cast... It's just such an honor to be a part of it. When Joss sent out that email, everyone one was just flipping out. We were really, really happy.

I like Olivia, but didn't think she deserved such a high ranking.

News from WENN

Quote:

Dan Aykroyd has confirmed the third Ghostbusters movie is all set to go before the cameras - with the original cast in place to reprise the characters from the 1984 film.

The movie star reveals Sigourney Weaver has signed on for the project, alongside himself, Bill Murray, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson - and the film could start shooting this winter.

Aykroyd still fears the project could "blow up" "at any second" but he hopes the new film will herald in a new generation of all-girl Ghostbusters.

He tells the Los Angeles Times newspaper, "I'd like it to be a passing-of-the-torch movie. Let's revisit the old characters briefly and happily and have them there as family but let's pass it on to a new generation."

And the actor wants Alyssa Milano and Eliza Dushku to consider becoming part of the Ghostbusters family: "I think they're amazing."

**Hot Rod** · 05-20-2009, 12:21 PM

Thanks for the news item Chris. Eliza as a Ghostbuster, i don`t know about this. I`ve had my doubts about this proposed sequel since it was announced, however the passing of the torch aspect has me intrigued. I think that the movie would work with the right director and writers.

The Daywalker · 05-20-2009, 12:25 PM

The first is a classic, the sequel was... less that great, but still decent. Given the gap of time, this idea could turn out pretty good. I could see Eliza and Blake with proton packs on their backs.

**Hot Rod** · 05-20-2009, 12:31 PM

That`s another thing i forgot to mention. This proposed sequel has to have that same unknown and quirky quality that the first movie had. Blake with Eliza would be very good. Of course i have a feeling that they could have a couple of guys as part of the new team.

The Daywalker · 05-20-2009, 01:13 PM

And seeing as the big 5 are returning, they can't splurge on knowns for the new set, or the budget will be through the roof and would "flop" on the profit margin.

trucherrygirl · 05-24-2009, 03:36 PM

I'm following Eliza on Twitter and she says it's all a big rumor. She even tweeted to Alyssa Milano about it who agreed with her. I would love to see them work together, though.

But I know Eliza is doing voice over work with Parry Shen (Tyler from Tru Calling) for the Wet video game.

**wanderer78** · 05-25-2009, 12:41 AM

I've never seen either Ghostbusters movie. But I'd watch a new one if Eliza were involved.
