@jadeskye:  
I wonder at what a small site can provide that isn't already out there for movies.  There are *tons* of movie sites out there, some of them very small and easy going, some massive behemoth sites with all the information you want about everything.  The only opening I see for another movie site is one that highlights older, lesser-known greats and reviews them, or maybe a revival of MST3k in some form.   

@c1337us:

I think the business model beheind Whiskey Media sites is sound.  By having a very small editorial staff and allowing their personality to come out, you develop viewers with actual site loyalty.  It means that if something better *does* come along, or maybe even already exists for some purposes, they still have a reason to go to the Whiskey site first.   The problem is that you need a group of people who are actually funny and interesting and connect with the viewers, and I imagine those are qualities you can't really interview for - you have to focus test, and I don't know that Whiskey does that.  I can only imagine that's what led to the staff of ComicVine.  Both those people seem like really nice guys, but they both take their jobs way too seriously and don't have much on-camera chemistry.

i always thought joblo.com would end up maturing and doing this first but damn that site is such shit if it werent for the constant feed of good articles and sense of humor.  
 
a whiskey media movie site will totally shit on joblo, comingsoon.net, imdb, rottentomatoes etc.  
all of those sites have fanbases just BEGGING for their site to be more like giantbomb and the other whiskey sites.  
once this baby launches i think it will become the number one site for whiskey.  
as long as it is done properly that is- i mean like as long as it does the news right, and gives us lots of unique content.

I would enjoy a movie site from Whiskey media because I really cannot stand the Totally Rad Show for much longer.

@ZanzibarBreeze: Considering I basically hide in the back seat of Dave's truck, I really doubt that would happen.  We're pretty close. 
 But in the unlikely case that would happen . . . mary_effn_poppns . . . its my psn name, and people get a chuckle whenever I play online, so I might as well bring it over.

@MB: I'm a huge tab browser, so I'm constantly opening, closing tabs.  But I think this site was more thanks to twitter notifications, and even that was just from opening the site, not from a SMS update.   
 
Tested...thats where I was actually refreshing pretty often.  I can also see myself doing the same for Screened...I'm just giddy I got my name on here.  Went to register at animevice, and strangely enough, even after I started out here, was able to get my name over there also...and they had been operating for a good amount of time.   
 
Cool that you can see the exact time we created our accounts though...I wonder what other nifty tools you have, besides that banhammer of course.

Sounds awesome, I'm nowhere into movies as much as I am video games but when I need to look up a movie it'll be my go-to place. Keep up the great work Whiskey Media.

As far as I'm concerned, any Whiskey Media entertainment-related site must be named using the five-letter word / four-letter word convention. Even if that wasn't initially intended to be a convention.

YES. Been looking for a good movie site, IMDB is shit and it's really hard to find info on movies if you're not that into them and is just looking for something good to watch. Hopefully it's for TV as well, yeah. Love Whiskey sites, they look and work so awesome. My only question is how do they make a living? Seriously. I know it's all ad based but apart from the far and few between ads before videos and stuff I hardly see any at all here. And I have disabled Adblock specifically for GB/Tested etc so I can click ads and give em some cash.  
 
Anyway, oh my god I cant wehhhhhh

This. It'd also quadruple my chance of getting a banned for life.

Oh wow, really?  Did not know about that.  And did they have a car site or something also?  Maybe Giant Bomb can be "Played", Anime Vice can be "Watched", and Comic Vine can be "read".  Or, you can make jokes about the habits of video game, anime, and comic fans with past-tense verbs of your own! "
Yeah they had a car wiki called Boompa.com, you can still view it in the internet archive

The SF Chronicle article  implies that the site had some kind of user generated content system, but yeah I'm not sure if it was a Wiki.

Interesting. Maybe the wiki and the database were different things? Or the page I was reading was way out of date. Man, piecing this history together is tough.

Alex and Matt getting powers of that site is proof that life is not about what you know, but who you know.

I just heard about Alex Navarro and Matt Rorie running Screened.  Awesome catch for Whiskey Media.  I really look forward to the launch of this site.

That's really the only part of this that I'm excited about, although I am VERY excited about it.
 
To be honest I'd have rather seen music website with Alex at the helm.
