The Summer of 2013 has been pretty stoked with big budget films, comedies and indie darlings, but which ones should you definitely see? TheUrbanDaily.com will…
Sharpen those fans, HBO viewers: you’ll be taking another bite out of True Blood in the summer of 2014. The cable network today announced that it has renewed its long-running hit for another 10 episodes, with Programming President Michael Lombard saying in a statement: “True Blood remains a signature show for HBO, and a true phenomenon with our viewers. Thanks to Brian Buckner and his talented team, the show continues to be a thrill ride like nothing else on TV.”
We are in the midst of summer and while the fall and holiday times are the more traditional big video game release times, summer has some gems as well. So I present – My Top Ten Summer Games!!! And the crowd goes wild!!! Okay, let’s do this. 10. NHL14 — September 10th NHL 14 Trailer (Official) Had you told me yesterday that NHL14 would even come close to a “most anticipated” list, I would have laughed in your face. Now? Well thanks to the NHL94 Anniversary mode trailer this quickly became a most wanted. 9. Payday 2 — August 13th Payday 2 Trailer I really enjoyed the first Payday and this sequel would be higher up on the list if I didn’t already play the stealth mission based, Hitman . That and I just can not get past the fact that you are able to still hold a gun with two hands while carrying a body. 8. Young Justice: Legacy — September 30th Young Justice Legacy Trailer I know September 30th is a bit beyond “summer” but as a cartoon based game it just has more of a summer feel to it. I was absolutely crushed when Cartoon Network canceled Young Justice . Very disheartening. So, now I’m putting Young Justice: Legacy on this list just so I can spend some more time with Superboy and his friends. 7. The Wonderful 101 — September 15th The Wonderful 101 E3 Trailer (Wii U) I don’t even have a Wii U, but I still want to play this game. Little bit of StarCraft mixed with a dash of Power Rangers and this just looks like fun. I can’t imagine I’ll go out and get a Wii U for just one game but eh, we’ll see. 6. Diablo 3 — September 3rd Diablo 3 Trailer I know, trust me I know. I tried to not include this. I scratched it out in my notes at least four times. I just can’t help it. I already play Diablo 3 on the PC, I already play Torchlight on the XBox, why on earth is Diablo 3 on a top ten list? I’m a Blizzard fangirl. As hard as I try not to be, it is what it is. 5. Rayman Legends — September 3rd Rayman Legends E3 Trailer (Wii U) I’m almost 35, so when I first started playing video games, there wasn’t any of this open world business. You went where the game told you and you would like it. You couldn’t even go backwards. I think that’s why I’m looking forward to the side-scrolling Rayman Legends. 4. Disney Infinity — August 18th Disney Infinity Trailer Let’s just head it off at the pass – Disney Infinity was announced way back in 2010 long before Skylanders came out so it isn’t some Skylanders knock-off. I have no shame in being a grown ass adult looking forward to buying toys for my video game. No shame at all. 3. GTA V — September 3rd Grand Theft Auto V Trailer I touched (okay, more than touched) on it when talking about this Grand Theft Auto V gameplay trailer , but I’m looking forward to this merely because a.) it’s GTA and b.) I really want to see this leisure business. I want to go paragliding or whatever else they have in store. 2. Civilization 5: Brave New World — July 9th Civilization V: Brave New World Trailer I have Sid Meier’s name tattooed to my ass like Xavier Roberts’ to that of a Cabbage Patch doll. No, I don’t, but never say never! I love the Civilization series in all of its forms and Brave New World looks like another fun expansion pack. 1. Kingdom Hearts 1.5 Remix — September 10th Kingdom Hearts Trailer If you haven’t played Kingdom Hearts before and are wondering how on earth a remix would make the top of any list, then you need to get this game. No really, you need to. Great storylines, great characters, great gameplay. There is a reason that there were so many people who absolutely freaked when it was announced there would be a Kingdom Hearts 3. It is that good. So that’s my top ten – what’d I miss? Have a game you’re looking forward to that I need to be playing this summer? Let me know down in the comments.
Let’s be honest: THG is a place you go not only to catch up on the latest news, but to fill a bit of downtime. I’m sure there’s been times you’ve turned to us and there isn’t a new story. It’s then you think, such a slow news day, what a bummer. Trust me, if you take the slow news day hard, please know that we’re dying over here! So instead of just sitting and staring off into space, waiting for retirement… we’ve taken to YouTube. We do it for you, dearest readers. Man of Steel Parody Video Today let’s do some movie themes. Like this Man of Steel video. The Man of Steel theme is beautiful but I have to say, I might enjoy this dude’s take on it even more. Feelings? The corn background? It’s a winner. Cosplay Piano video A-May-Zing. Love this whole idea. Cosplay plus the theme of a movie your cosplay is related to? Genius. This is much better then staring off into space. Tara’s Theme Video So, I’ll be honest. I went out and looked for Tara’s Theme from Gone With the Wind because well, I’m southern and live in Georgia and I was just having a “need Gone With the Wind in my life” moment. I can tell you these people have never been to Georgia. Our homes don’t float, and didn’t float in the time of Gone With the Wind either. I’m thinking they are taking the ‘wind’ part of that way too seriously. There are no words for those dolls. This was a bad idea. Misty Mountains Acapella Video Okay, Misty Mountains isn’t really the theme for The Hobbit but I love this video and I’m doing a service here so just go with it. I love this video and pretty much every other video he has done. Gives me chills each time I watch it. Well I hope this helped fill your day just a little bit. Since we never know when this slow news situation will next strike, I feel like I should be prepared. What do you want to see covered in a Slow News Special? Vintage TV show clips? Dogs falling asleep in their water bowls? Those creepy videos where just the lips move? You tell me and I’ll try and fill that void for you! Stay tuned for the next edition of Slow News Special!

NeNe Leakes And Brandi Glanville Get Into A Physical Altercation Apparently it’s not all love, lacefronts and million-dollar weddings over at Bravo TV. Earlier this year there was a rumor circulating that RHOA cast members Nene Leakes and Kenya Moore got into an angry bird brawl with Real Housewives of Beverly Hills attention-slore Brandi Glanville, and now some details have come out about exactly what went down. via Wet Paint A few months ago we heard rumblings of some epic fight between Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville, and Real Housewives of Atlanta’s NeNe Leakes and Kenya Moore, but we didn’t learn much about the tense incident. However, on a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live Andy Cohen gave viewers a little more insight into the events of the night, which took place at an after party following the Summer By Bravo promo shoot with tons of Bravolebrities in attendance. “It was a knockdown, slapdown sh*tshow. It was crazy,” Bravolebrity Jeff Lewis began. “It was with Brandi Glanville and NeNe [Leakes] and Kenya [Moore.] Whoa.” Andy and the other Bravo spy also went on to pretty much point the finger at a slizzard Brandi for starting the fight. Hit the flip for the rest of the details… Continue reading →

In a decision both expected and yet surprising for its immediacy, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is leaving The View … effective tomorrow! According to The New York Post , the conservative host will then take a brief hiatus and premiere as a co-anchor on Fox & friends this September. “Elisabeth’s warm and engaging personality made her a star on The View,” Fox News Chairman & CEO Roger Ailes told the newspaper. “She has proven to be an excellent conversationalist and I am certain she will make a great addition to our already successful morning franchise.” Hasselbeck will join Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmead on the Fox morning program, while Gretchen Carlson will shift move to daytime. Said Barbara Walters in a statement: “When Elisabeth survived Survivor we wanted to make sure she would stay afloat. We have had 10 wonderful years with her and she will now be swimming in new waters. We will miss her and wish her everything good.” Joy Behar, meanwhile, will also exit The View this summer. Possible replacements include Brooke Shields, NeNe Leakes and Jenny McCarthy .
