‘Bottle Shock’ DVD Captures
Better late than never; Bottle Shock was released on Region 2 DVD last month (July) and I was finally able to see it for myself -- Eliza only has a small role & is therefore only in a few scenes but it's a wonderful gem of a movie and highly recommended.
Thus, over 200 HQ DVD screencaptures from the movie and it's extras have been added to the gallery; links and previews are below, enjoy!

TCA Press Tour
Thanks to Whedonesque for the heads up; we have positive feedback about Dollhouse & its second season at the TCA press tour from Kevin Reilly, Fox's Entertainment President and Peter Rice, Fox's Chairman - they may even order the back 9 episodes, which would make a full season of 22 episodes! Extracts are below.
In terms of the less than stellar Friday night ratings, Reilly says the deciding factor in picking up the show, was the devotion of the fans.
“The fans were there every week and that factored in,” says Reilly. “They nurtured the show and stuck with it -- a lot of fans [of other show] wouldn’t. They gave us a consistent rating and we felt it was enough of a base to give it another shot.”

"Joss is an incredible creator of TV shows," countered Rice, "and the show got better and better as the season went on."
So what's Joss' mandate for Season Two? "Keep doing what he’s doing," said Rice of what Whedon would do for Dollhouse's sophomore season. "That is really the gift of Joss... he was open about those hiccups. In the second half, he really found the show and started having fun with it... It’s going to be much smoother sailing this year.”

The renewal of “Dollhouse” for a second season was due to the die-hard Joss Whedon fans, but Reilly swears that “it didn’t factor in from a fear place. It was more from a positive place. Those fans were there every week, and they stuck with it in a way that a lot of television fans don’t.” Now that he’s worked out the hiccups in the show, the official mandate for Season 2 of “Dollhouse” is for Joss to keep doing what he does.

‘WET’ soaks up retail spotlight in September
Courtesy of USA Today, we now have a release date for Eliza's new video game, WET -- September 15, 2009.
The article is posted below.
Bethesda Softworks high-style action game WET is arriving on store shelves for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on September 15, the publisher announced in a statement.
The third-person shooter features Rubi Malone, a "gun-for-hire" voiced by actress Eliza Dushku, who is betrayed by a mysterious wealthy man while completing a job. The combat mixes third-person gunplay, swordfighting and acrobatic moves such as flips and wall-running.
"We’ve worked really hard to make WET different from any other action game available", says Patrick Fortier, Creative Director at developer A2M, in a statement.
WET will join games such as The Beatles: Rock Band, Need For Speed: Shift and Halo 3: ODST in the September release schedule.
