Well this is it folks. For a couple of weeks now we’ve been telling you that a major announcement was coming concerning the future (or lack thereof) of The Movie Blog. On Wednesday’s LIVE show we announced the first half of the news. The Movie Blog will be no more. That’s right folks, after 4+ years of being the best damn movie blog on the internet, The Movie Blog is heading off into the sunset (Re-Visit the post on The 10 Most Defining Moments In Movie Blog History).
BUT THAT’S ONLY HALF THE ANNOUNCEMENT!
Tonight at 6pm EST (3pm PST) on the Uncut LIVE show, we will be announcing the second part! I’ll save that news until tonight, but I will clear up some of the biggest rumors:
1) I did NOT get a TV show. The VH1 show that I was slated for never got off the ground and is still not happening as far as I know.
2) I did NOT accept the studio job. I was excited about it at first, but it ended up being something I wasn’t interested in.
3) The Movie Blog is not merging with other sites to form a bigger site.
4) No, George Lucas did not realize that I’m the only person in the world who could properly lead a new Star Wars franchise and handed full control of Lucas Film over to me (that’s still in negotiations though). :P
So tune swing by here for the announcement tonight.
At 6pm EST, you can also just listen to the show live right here (the player below will automatically start streaming the show when we go live):
