The word according to Dave . . . 
  

There are beers being passed around and Meat Loaf is on speakers. That can only mean one thing here at Whiskey Media. 4 minutes ago  via  Tweetie

When watching the "How To Build A Bomb" series, when they launched this weird url called ' Giantbomb.com' they were passing around Coronas like nobodies business. 
 
One can only hope.  And press F5. 
 
***edit*** 
 
Looks like some people are thinking its tested.com, a tech type site like gizmodo or engadget.  Attempts to make a profile are met without success, but with the best 500 error message I've seen.  Although it seems like the Whiskey world has their own profile - engineers, editors, video dudes, etc.  Although it does have the character you would expect . . . check out their video to see a glimpse of Vinny 2nd person, and Coonce doing his best Rollie Fingers impersonation!
  
While it isn't the movie site I was hoping for, (and it might not be the actual site they're talking about) it seems like the whiskey guys have made a great site in each of their fields - games, comics, anime - so if I give it a chance, it shouldn't be all that bad . . .  
 
. . . . . . . . . but movie site plz?
 

Clarification

Alright, so it looks like the new site is officially tested.com.  Coonce has confirmed it here.  I guess we follow these people a little bit better than they expect, Coonce seems a bit perplexed ;)
So it's a tech style site, like above, very much talking about gadgets and gizmos.  
Staff pedigree doesn't seem too bad either.... Will Smith, here's his brief rundown on his 'about me' tab -  

"In addition to Tested, I'm the former Editor in Chief of Maximum PC. I've written for tons of publications, including Ars Technica (where I was an editor from 1999 - 2000), Gizmodo, Mac|Life, Official Xbox Magazine, PC Gamer, and Wired. The weirdest thing I've ever tested is probably for a story on high-end squirt guns for Wired, which included a giant water balloon mortar.  "


 
While not what I was expecting, I'm more than ready to snap up what those whiskey boys cook for me.  yay!!
 
oh, and I got my profile active, with that beautiful headshot of mine already in the forums.  So you guys should go over and make an account, even though you might not use it right away, you know down the line you're going to be adding to the discussion when your topic rolls around :D

No, they do not. They made it very clear this will not happen. You will need to create a new one!

So, I wonder if there's going to be a movie site too, or if they decided to just make a tech site.

Oh man Coonce in that movie cracked me up, I hope the moustache wasn't fake.
I can't register though as it requires some kind of capture that just doesn't show up for me. I guess it's a stand-in website for now then.

Come on Snide, cut the ribbon on this baby!

Two men going inside a store to buy a bag full of condoms.. 
 
Not that there's anything wrong with it -- but the employee at that store had to be thinking they were raging gay guys. I bet that was hilarious, I would of loved to be the next guy in line to see that reaction, lol.

Considering the high pedigree of the two known editors on the site, I'm expecting great things from it :)

No, sadly, which is something that they should definitely add. IGN has this feature, eeeeveery IGN site is associated with 1 account.

I'm surprised that domain wasn't taken years ago. Tested sounds better than Gizmodo or Engadget.

Yeah I'm having the same problem. Although I'm not sure why I'm in such a rush to be logged in, I guess I just want it to be official is all.

Haven't got the email yet but claimed my username.  Definitely my kind of site.  Soon me and my Cookie Monster avatared madness will post there hopefully.
