Tim Burton and David Geffen's BeetleJuice


Tim Burton and David Geffen | BeetleJuice


Beetlejuice dvd - BeetleJuice is the main title individuality of the TV show. beetleJuice sometimes "BEEJ" or "BJ" has powers to change shape, teleport, transform into an object, and carry out other feats of magic, even though her magic can be decreased by various conditions, such as encountering a sand worms, or sometimes her head is being separated from his body. at times he must pause first to anticipate on how he will use his magics to escape a dangerous or risky situation. beetlejuice derives from the star Betelgeuse, which considered as the armpit of Orion's Belt.

when beetlejuice says aloud a figure of speech, he himself and his surroundings change to act on the pun (for example, if he says he's tired, he'll transform into a tire; if he says he's flat broke, he transforms into a flat disc that falls to the ground and shatters; on one occasion, in reference to his own power, he declares "This literal translation stuff slays me!" and giant letters reading "Literal Translation Stuff" then fall from the sky to crush him). and most of all his changes is maintain the black and white stripped pattern he used to ware, although sometimes the lines are colored depending on the transformation.


Though many Neitherworld denizens have some magic, it is Beetlejuice's greatly superior power (no real cause for it is ever given) that affords him the title—albeit mostly self-asserted—of "The Ghost With The Most." Because of that power, almost everyone in the Neitherworld is fair game for his pranks, though no more so than he himself, since he is not immune to careless use of his power; for example, he was once tricked by his enemies into saying "I'm coming apart at the seams!" which caused him to break into several pieces, with which his enemies then stole and scattered to different places in the Neitherworld, rendering him nearly helpless until—with Lydia's help—he reassembled himself. Sometimes Beetlejuice will mix up one of his transformations (when Lydia told him to turn into a stake to fight off Count Me in, he turned into a flank steak).

Brittany Snow to star in "American Dreams"

Brittany SnowThe photogenic and fair-haired Brittany Snow born in Tampa, Florida on March 9, 1986. She traveled the path of Brooke Shields and others by going to work as a model at the age of three. Brittany appeared on the small screen from the age of eight, when she landed a number of spots on the Spielberg-produced SeaQuest DSV, starring Roy Scheider (a good start for an elementary student). Brittany later voiced Shizuku in the Americanized version of Hayao Miyazaki's Whisper of the Heart. In the fall of 2000, she enrolled as a freshman in the Tampa-area's Gaither High School, a public secondary institution.

Brittany Snow signed for one of the central roles on NBC's coming of age series American Dreams at the age of 16, a kind of Wonder Years update. Set about five years before that tv series began, American Dreams opened in 1963 as Meg Pryor, a high school student with a much-coveted job as an American Bandstand dancer, Brittany stole viewers' hearts and helped propel the series to a four-season run. American Dreams brings back that dream with such amazing reality. We can remember the events happening in the world, and remember what it was like to live. This tv show is extremely well written and I will watch this show until it is taken off the air. A show for the generations to share.

After a supporting role in the 2005 Vin Diesel comedy show “The Pacifier”, Brittany found her broadest exposure in two 2006 releases. That year's black comedy John Tucker Must Die (by Hill Street Blues alum and Private Parts director Betty Thomas) unofficially reworks and sanitizes, the Dangerous Liasons formula, with Brittany and two other teen heartthrobs (Ashanti and Sophia Bush) as disgruntled high school student determined to give the class stud a comeuppance by hiring a girl to break his heart. The film received so-so reviews and opened in late July 2006 to predictably decent box office. Brittany landed her first big screen lead in the same year's On the Doll (directed by Thomas Mignone) , as Balery, a stripper. In spring 2006, she signed with Kristin Cavallari to star in the psychological thriller Fingerprints for Harry Basil (Meet Wally Sparks Cloud Nine). By now, Brittany is busy with her upcoming movie for this year (2009) entitled “Black Water Transit” and other three movies for 2010 “Janie Jones” which is now filming, “Walks” now on its pre-production and “Clock Tower”.American Dreams DVD

Damon Wayans: Favorite Male Performer In a New TV Series

Damon WayansIn 1990 comedian Damon Wayans burst onto the television scene with In Living Color, an outrageously funny and often controversial comedy show broadcast on the Fox Network. Each week, the half-hour variety show parodied life in America, with one big distinction, its street-smart, urban perspective. He then moved on to appear in numerous films. In 2001 Wayans debuted in another, though far less controversial, hit television comedy series, My Wife and Kids.

Born in 1961 and raised in the Chelsea district of New York City as one of 11 children, Wayans learned the value of a family. Though they were poor, he doesn't hold any bad memories of his childhood. In fact, Wayans credited his upbringing for much of his comic ability, where as children and his siblings would stretch their imaginations with a game of "make me laugh or die."

The popularity of In Living Color made him especially adept at mimicking people like Louis Farrakhan. But his self-created characters Homey the Clown, Anton the Bum, and Handi-Man (a handicapped superhero) distinguished him from the rest of the ensemble and made Damon Wayans one of the most popular cast members.

Next Wayans developed the comedy TV series, Damon, which debuted mid-season in 1998. Wayans played an undercover Chicago police officer and David Allen Grier--also of In Living Color fame-- took on the role of Wayans' inept younger brother. Wayans assumes numerous disguises throughout the course of his undercover work. People Weekly's Terry Kelleher noted that "Wayans comes alive" when he puts on a disguise and presents a comic caricature, but that "when the cop is himself, the star is on autopilot." The series was not renewed for a second season. My Wife and Kids DVD

Wayans served as producer and co-creator of the tv show “My Wife and Kids”. In 2002 My Wife and Kids won a People's Choice Award for Favorite New TV Comedy series. Wayans also garnered the Favorite Male Performer in a New TV Series award. Wayans was next set to appear in a full-length film version of Homey the Clown.

Emmy Awards for outstanding writing in a variety program, for In Living Color, 1991 and 1992; Soul Train Comedy Award for best actor in a TV sketch comedy role, 1993; People's Choice Awards, Favorite Male Performer In a New Television Series, 2002.

Hollywood Stars Movie: Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer AnistonMost recently at the center of a swirl of rumors about her breakup with boyfriend singer John Mayer, Jennifer Aniston is the daughter of “Days of Our Lives” television show drama star John Aniston.

Jennifer Aniston was born in California, but spent most of her childhood in New York where she attended the High School of Performing Arts.

Off-Broadway roles were the kickoff of her professional career, moving on to TV shows with short-lived performances in a variety of doomed comedy show and sitcom series such as “The Ben Stiller Show” in 1993.

Aniston's big career break finally came with her role as Rachel Green in a newly planned sitcom series, Friends Like These in what would eventually became known as Friends by the time it aired in 1994.

Not only was the show a mega-hit, it scored a huge following for Aniston herself, whose hairstyle on the show became a popular rage among young 20-somethings and became favorite of top celebrities on movie.

Today, Jennifer Anniston's hair continues to enthrall fans as she sports a straight-down style, obtained with a flat iron and which has brought the "Sedu" iron style into the popular lexicon.

Aniston next tried her hand at film, racking up critical acclaim in such romantic comedies as She's the One, Picture Perfect, and The Object of My Affection. Along the way, she met actor Brad Pitt and Hollywood's new golden couple were married in 2000.

In 2002, Aniston took the lead part in The Good Girl alongside Jake Gyllenhall and appeared with Jim Carrey in the critically acclaimed comedy show, Bruce Almighty in 2003. And also she appeared to the tv series “F.R.I.E.N.D.S”.

TV Episode | F.R.I.E.N.D.S

The official news of the rumored breakup between Aniston and husband Brad Pitt was announced in January, 2005. Since then, rumors have have been reported directly linking actress Angelina Jolie to the much gossiped-about breakup.

Following her separation from Pitt, Aniston officially filed for divorce in March, 2005.

The actress soon after responded with wit and good humor about the famous Anniston-Pitt breakup and gently poked fun at her ex in an interview with Vanity Fair magazine.

Aniston's most current love interest was, until late 2006, actor Vince Vaughn who according to a front cover story by US Weekly, had asked Aniston to marry him.

The report was soon countered by a firm denial by Aniston's publicists, followed by official news reported in People Magazine that the Aniston-Vaughn relationship was over in December. That apparently ended months of rumors about the couple, who ironically met in 2005 on the set of their film The Break Up.

Most recently, the most talked about item in the tabloids is Aniston's breakup with long-time boyfriend and pop rocker John Mayer.
