Rock of the Dead creator interview

By Rach | Published Wed Sep-22-10 -

GameRant.com have published an interview with Bryan Jury, creator of Rock of the Dead. He had some interesting things to say about securing Neil and Felicia Day as voice talent for the game.

GR: Felicia Day and Neil Patrick Harris are akin to gods within the geek world. How did you get the opportunity to work with them and was it a good experience?
Bryan Jury: If it’s not completely apparent with their casting, we’re HUGE Dr. Horrible fans. I’m an absolute nerd when it comes to Joss Whedon in general. We’re a pretty small independent studio, but we’ve been able to work with some pretty good voice talent in our games. Our last game, Real Heroes: Firefighter, has James Marsters, Jaime Kennedy and Jenette Goldstein (Vazquez from Aliens) among others. I often get asked how we end up getting these people in our games, and the answer is pretty simple: we pick up the phone and ask! We might get some people who aren’t interested, but most are really intrigued.

With Neil and Felicia, we got a lot of hesitation at first as they are both often inundated with similar offers. But after we sent over descriptions of their characters and how the game works, they signed on pretty much right away. I had the honor of directing their recording sessions, so I got to ask them why they agreed so quickly, and both of them said the concept just really interested them. Felicia actually has a regular Rock Band night at her house, so this was right up her alley.

Both of them were absolutely fantastic to work with. They’re both so talented and professional with what they do, they were some of the easiest sessions I’ve gotten to direct. I did have an awkward moment with each of them though. I hadn’t told them prior to their recording sessions that the other was in the game. I honestly wasn’t sure if they would think a mini Dr. Horrible reunion was going to be a good idea or not. But after I sheepishly brought it up, they both got a big kick out of it, so that was a relief!

Rock of the Dead is released on Wii, PS3 and X-Box in October.

In non-zombie related news, Neil and the HIMYM cast appeared on a few shows on Monday to promote both season six and also the earlier seasons starting to air in syndication – you can watch Neil & Jason on Good Day NY and Neil, Josh, Cobie and Alyson on Entertainment Tonight.

Neil talks HIMYM season 6 to eonline

By Rach | Published Mon Sep-20-10 -

Watch With Kristin talked to Neil at CBS’s fall premiere party about what’s coming up on the show.

Neil Patrick Harris is probably teasing us when he says that Jennifer Morrison’s new character on How I Met Your Mother is a villain. Probably, but not definitely…

NPH teases that Morrison’s character’s “contentious” relationship with Ted (Josh Radnor) is what “makes the sex great.” Heck, maybe Morrison is both the mother and a villain.

Press play above for more from NPH on season six of HIMYM, including news about guest stars, some eyebrow-waggling innuendo (our favorite kind) and a little chit-chat about Marshall (Jason Segel) and Lily’s (Alyson Hannigan) mission for the season!

HIMYM season six premieres tonight at 8/7c on CBS.

Fashion’s Night Out 2010

By Rach | Published Wed Sep-1-10 -

Neil is set to host a one-hour fashion special on CBS, Tuesday September 14, 10/9c. The special will focus on year two of Fashion’s Night Out, including “Fashion’s Night Out: The Show”, taking place on September 7, and the Fashion’s Night Out event itself, taking place in New York on September 10th.

Oscar de la Renta, Diane Von Furstenberg, Justin Timberlake, Tory Burch and Anna Wintour will be among the many fashion industry stars featured in FASHION’S NIGHT OUT 2010, a one-hour primetime special that takes viewers behind the scenes of the world’s largest fashion celebration, to be broadcast Tuesday, Sept. 14 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. The special will be hosted by Emmy Award-winning actor Neil Patrick Harris, star of the CBS comedy series, “How I Met Your Mother.”

Looking beyond the glamour to the real-life implications at stake, the show will also focus on individuals working in all parts of the industry for whom the vibrancy of the fashion business is a question of economic survival — from Wintour’s initial meetings in Paris with her international editors to discuss plans for this year’s event to interviews with sales managers at the Gap about how Fashion’s Night Out benefits the retail industry.

For more information on Fashion’s Night Out 2010, visit their official site at cbs.com/specials/fashions_night_out.

Looking back at the Emmys, a number of websites/networks interviewed Neil on the red carpet – Ryan Seacrest for E!, Access Hollywood, NBC, Entertainemnt Weekly and TV Guide.

Final point for tonight, something which you might already have noticed – we’ve given the site a redesign!

After yesterday’s announcement of the Hot 100 list, AfterElton.com have posted up comments from some of the people on the list. Click here to read in full what Neil, David and some of the other members of the Hot 100 think about their placing on the list.

Holy Pete, a repeat!?!Thanks for the votes, gentlemen. I don’t quite know how to respond - it’s always fun to be on the top of a pile of hot dudes? No, umm - it IS a lot more enjoyable the second time you do it? No, no. How about – I’ve always fantasized having these 99 guys behind me? Truly, though, the fact that David and I both made this list means a lot. Mainly, it means that there will be some enthusiastic role playing tonight. So thanks for that. ~ Neil Patrick Harris

And

Thank you to all who voted for me. How you knew that I have been running a fever lately is beyond me. I would especially like to thank my publicist Neil Patrick Harris. ~ David Burtka

Behind the scenes of “Glee”!

By Rach | Published Wed Apr-7-10 -

As seen on the Oprah Winfrey show – a day in the life of a Glee cast member. This was put together during the filming of Neil’s episode so he appears sporadically throughout, once filming a scene (so slight spoilers, if you’re particularly spoiler adverse), as does Joss.

You can watch the 4 minute video here!
