You know, it's one thing to think you know better, but that guy wouldn't stop talking, and in delivering the way he THOUGHT it should be done, he also delivered an air of intolerance an disdain. Karma's a bi-ch. That guy deserved it. Karen, the 6 degrees thing is totally cool eh? And it's weird, because even though I have not EVER met this guy, and probably won't ever meet him, there's like a 3rd degree pride I feel. Part of it is pulling for the Canadian, the Vancouverite, and the guy from my neighborhood.....but I think it's partly the 6 degrees thing too.

Nobody votes, Mameblanche, just the judges.

Remember the short clip on the 'good Samaritan' I call it GS cannot remember the name....any way the homeless guy pushing his cart...the good Samaritan washed his clothes, the laundry mart closed in half an hour, they say there all night, she offered him a sandwich... only he is allergic to peanut butter...he dies. I felt so sad!

Any one remembered the 3 directors: camera man with out any experience who said the girls were useless and wasted time, the female in film school and the other female (who was sent home out of that group)..Anyway he took over the editing, sat all night and it turned out he did a good job after all. Was his shooting as bad and out of focus as the girls said, and did we see the difference? Next episode is on Monday night.

Public starts voting next week I think....kind of like American Idol, judges get them down to publicly manageable numbers, then we do the voting.

But can CANADIANS vote or only Americans??? I know there is voting... just figure it's only in the U.S.A. but HOPING otherwise... I was thrilled to see the arrogant guy get his comeuppance. He treated the other fellow with such disdain it was painful to watch. Loved the other guy's subtle 'victory smirk' at the end, in the audience! Loved it!

It's a FOX show, Mame... so I'm assuming (though don't quote me on it), that it'll take the same format as AI and we'll be allowed to vote. I think I saw something on the official website that it'll be online voting, similar to Rock Star. Seeing as they opened the auditions to 33 different countries, I can't see them allowing only Americans to vote.

Karen - thanks, I didn't know Canadians could vote for AI!? I thought we could only vote for Canadian Idol. Hmmm. If we can vote that would be cool.

I'm not an Idol fan, so I don't know... I just assumed us Canadians could vote...? At any rate, I doubt the fans would think it's fair to have contestants from all over the globe, but only Americans could vote. I'm certain we'll be allowed.

Mameblanche - I think we will be allowed to. We can vote for Dances with the Stars. We'll just have to wait until next week to see for sure. I have really enjoyed this show so far. Vote for Zac!

I guess I'm the only one who like the arrogant guy? LOL. I like his sound bites to the camera and thought it seemed like he knew what he was talking about. I thought the other guy looked like a tool when arrogant guy asked him to get a glass with some watered down coke to look like a drink. He says "well, i'm not the one to do that because I don't drink" like he was so superior. Come on. I'm a tea totaller, but I know how to pour some coke in a glass and water it down. It seemed like he was just being difficult. I'm liking this show so far. I can't wait to see more of their films.

I agree with you Brenda. I thought the man who wouldn't water down the coke seems to have short man attitude. He wouldn't listen to anyone and prefered to hinder instead of help the group.

Didn't seem to me that either arrogant guy or little guy would be too easy to work with and "working well with others" seems to be a pretty crucial element in filmmaking.

I don't understand why a three person group wouldn't just start out with a "go by vote" way of progressing. I would join my group and say "Obviously we don't know each other, or our styles, so let's just vote on any decisions where we may disagree. Majority rules." It saves butting heads too much. If the other two constantly vote against my ideas, I would stop and think maybe my ideas are the problem.

Just wanted to say that I finally got around to watching the first episode of this show last night. I thoroughly enjoyed it! If anyone is interested in this sort of thing, it's not too late to start watching!

The main reason I find this show so interesting is because I am used to seeing specials about people like Spielberg and Eastwood making their movies. At this point in their careers, they have practically unlimited funding and time to do as they please, and no one they have to call boss. It's neat seeing how someone low on the totem pole in the biz has so much restriction.
