But are they actually being paid to act on the show or are they simply contestants that just happen to be actors/actresses (and thus can "act in character" more consistantly than the average person can)? There's a difference. -G
Someone elsewhere had mentioned to me that the lady playing Fat Momma was one of the only contestants that he couldn't find acting credentials for. I'm also not surprised that they're the final three. -G
Also, it seems rather strange of Stan Lee to keep scolding Major Victory for removing his cape, claiming that Superman never did that - despite the fact that Superman did that many times when necessary. -G
My wife and I have been watching this and laughing from beginning to end. It's so bad it's funny. I hope Major Vctory takes it all - it's almost like he's making fun of the process at times. This has to go down as one of the cheezies shows ever. Either way I can't wait to see how bad th movie will be - I'm guessing that it will be a Sci-Fi channel movie - maybe as bad if not worse than the one they just aired from Stan Lee. The whole Blackberry and Billboard video are so fake, you just have to laugh. Since when did the old Blackberry ever get anything but text? The Dark Enforcer is such a bad actor as well - he is really annoying. Final must be his week - will Feedback cry more and tell Stan how much he loves him and how his whole life has been lived through comics and how Spiderman raised him as a boy. Why didn't he just call Stan DAD
Believe it or not, they're drawing it out for two more weeks - the season finale (and surely, the series finale) - is Aug 31.
No kidding. Well, my kids will be very happy. I just hope they crisp up the format a little bit and get some better characters ... er, contestants.
I'm pretty sure that the producers will crisp it up, I'm sure. It seems that each of the final two episodes this season will have only one contestant eliminated, which isn't suprising at this point. -G
It's now just Feedback and Fat Momma left. After hearing that little girl say that she's never heard of Pong (which was Feedback's answer to what his favorite video game is) and that Feeback must've just made that up, I really feel old! Next week: the Season Finale. -G
My kids fell asleep before this came on last night, so we had to watch it today. Funny how the competitions meant zip. Over the two challenges in this episode ... the kid popularity contest and the clue-based race .... Major Victory actually did better (2nd and 1st) than the other two. So Stan/the producers had to make up some fake excuse to get rid of MV. He's not 'sincere' enough. And yes, the Pong thing was pretty funny ("I think he made it up").
So no real surprise in the end. For as much as I liked Fat Momma as a person better than I liked the ass-kissing Feedback, it just wouldn't have seemed right for her to be named 'the next great superhero'. Just like her little clip, any comic book or movie starring her would've been more of a joke or a parody than anything. (OTOH, I suppose that would've gone right along with the show). Wonder when the Feedback comic book will come out?
And when will the Sci-Fi Saturday Night Movie come out? And will it star the actual guy as Feedback, or someone who can actually act? I noticed during the little mini-movies, that some of the clips were from past Sci-Fi movies -- in Fat Momma's movie, she was up against some creature that turned to stone when she threw a donut at it, that creature was from some dumb movie which was on Sci-Fi in the last year, some sort of gargoyle movie or something. Feedback's mini-movie featured a dragon, there's some crappy dragon movie on Sci-Fi every month so it was probably from one of those.
Glad it was Feedback over Fat Momma, but the reason he booted Major Victory was because he thought he was acting to silly. When they showed the promo type clips in the last episode of the two of them, it was nothing but comedy. For that Stan needs to re-think the stuipidity of getting rid of Major Victory or at least give him a cameo in what will be the worlds worst made for Sci-Fi movie. I will watch the movie, but it will be horrible. Especially if they have Dark Enforcer in it - he is so annoying and can't act - well Feedback can't either so we will see.
