'Dane Cook: Isolated Incident' Special Stand-Up Comedy Event to Be Released by Comedy Central(R) on DVD and Download-To-Own on Tuesday, November 17 'Dane Cook: Isolated Incident' Special Stand-Up Comedy Event to be Released by Comedy Central(R) on DVD and Download-To-Own On Tuesday, November 17 "Dane Cook: ISolated INcident" DVD Will Be Released Uncensored And Feature The Following Bonus Materials: "ISolated INterview," A Never-Before-Seen Interview With Dane And "30 Premeditated Acts" Which Features The Comedian Explaining The Genesis Of Some Of His Best Routines NEW YORK, Nov 02, 2009 -- Dane Cook has done it all on his way to the top of the comedy world including sold out concerts across the country, rocking Madison Square Garden (where he will be headlining again on Thursday, November 5 and currently on the final leg of his world tour), and becoming a movie star in the process. Now watch him as he takes on his biggest challenge yet, performing in front of 400 people at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood. On Tuesday, November 17, "Dane Cook: ISolated INcident" stand-up special will be released nationwide on DVD and download-to-own including iTunes (pre-order Tuesday, November 3) and Amazon Video On Demand. In addition, the special will be available in standard and high definition versions on Xbox LIVE Marketplace, Zune and PlayStation Store. "Dane Cook: ISolated INcident" DVD, released uncensored by COMEDY CENTRAL Home Entertainment and Paramount Home Entertainment, features the following bonus materials: "ISolated INterview," a never-before-seen interview with Dane and "30 Premeditated Acts" which features the comedian explaining the genesis of some of his jokes. Coming off his last two highly-rated specials, where he performed in front of a combined 70,000 people, Cook reinvented his act and took it to the stage in the most intimate way -- in front of 400 people at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood on the Sunset Strip. The material that Cook performs in this "ISolated INcident" special event is in a completely different tone than what we have seen in the past which includes brand new, cutting-edge material that pushes the envelope to its highest level. The event was so simple in concept, yet was filmed unlike any other stand-up comedy event -- one performance filmed with only one camera so that the audience could view the show as if they were there that evening. Throughout the show, the audience was taken into a unique nightclub atmosphere while watching an authentic real-time performance without a safety net, which turned out to be an incredibly groundbreaking experience.

Just take a look at its new smiley face.; [HOME EDITION] Paul Brownfield. Los Angeles Times. Los Angeles, Calif.: Sep 3, 2006. pg. E.1 Abstract (Summary) "Tourgasm" was a conspicuously slight and infomercial-like ad to boost [Cook]'s rabid popularity among college-age fans; the rest was filler, Cook and his three comedian underlings in various states of homoerotic, roughhousing repose. It seemed more than a little symbolic, in fact, that Cook was blowing up last year while Mitch Hedberg, a comedian whose following mirrored Cook's (Internet fan base, transcendent rock-star aura), died of a drug overdose in a New Jersey motel. Onstage, Hedberg cut an odd Kurt Cobain-like figure -- tall, skinny, beatnik clothes, hair over his eyes. He talked in idiosyncratic, absurdist mumbles ("I tried to walk into a Target, but I missed"; "I don't own a microwave, but I do have a clock that occasionally cooks [things]") and was afraid to lock eyes with the audience. He feared the very thing at which Cook excels -- tearing down the wall between the audience and himselfbut he loved that which Cook doesn't: the economy, the importance, of words.

  • Paramount Pictures Announces Direct-To-Exhibitors Digital Cinema Deal
    Paramount Pictures Announces Direct-to-Exhibitors Digital Cinema Deal First Studio To Implement Agreement To Accelerate Expansion Of Digital Footprint HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Jan. 22 -- Paramount Pictures, a unit of Viacom Inc. (NYSE: VIA and VIA.B), today announced it has become the first studio to offer digital cinema support directly to exhibitors across the United States and Canada. The move is expected to accelerate the roll-out of digital and 3-D projection systems in theatres. The announcement was made by Jim Tharp, President of Domestic Theatrical Distribution. The deal works in parallel with previously announced agreements with DCIP (Digital Cinema Implementation Partners), Cinedigm, Kodak, and Sony but allows exhibitors to seek financing for d-cinema systems locally rather than wait for comprehensive integrator agreements, which require significantly more upfront capital, to be completed. In addition, the agreement allows exhibitors to own and control their equipment (which is required to be DCI/SMPTE compliant), and to switch to an integrator-supported agreement at a later date if desired. The new agreement also includes independent theatres that do not belong to any integrator groups. In making the announcement, Tharp said, "We are excited about the potential of more theatres offering more of Paramount's films in the highest quality digital and 3-D. Today's announcement is a good step forward to providing more audiences with the very best in movie viewing." NATO President and CEO John Fithian said, "Paramount is getting out front on this critical industry transition and we applaud them. Direct arrangements between distributors and exhibitors won't work for everyone, but for some of our members, it could make the difference in surviving and thriving in the digital era.
