Due to "consumer demand," soft drink manufacturer Dr Pepper has extended its offer of a free drink to everyone if GUNS N' ROSES' long-awaited new album, "Chinese Democracy", actually dropped in 2008.
Interested fans have until 6:00 p.m. today (Monday, November 24) to visit DrPepper.com. After registering online, they will receive a coupon redeemable for a 20-oz. Dr Pepper wherever the drink is sold.
The twist: the coupon will expire on February 28.
According to WalletPop.com, Dr Pepper's web site had a hard time keeping up with demand for a soda yesterday, with may fans receivng a "loading" message on the main page when trying to access the site.
"We never thought this day would come," said Tony Jacobs, vice president of marketing for Dr Pepper. "But now that it's here, all we can say is: The Dr Pepper's on us."

Well, that's your hang-up. I don't think Axl had any choice but to call it GnR, with the contractual obligations he had. Not that I think he'd have changed it if he was free to... but still.

I haven't picked it up yet, but I think it's a mistake to try to measure it against the old stuff. The old stuff has 20 years of baggage, and was the definitive music of our youth. Nothing anybody could write could ever compare to that. I think you need to compare it to other stuff coming out now.

Or maybe people have different taste in music than you?

My local CW will be broadcasting the Steelers game that night. So I'm going to have to cruise through the guide and hope they rebroadcast Smallville and Supernatural afterwards.

I thought that one was more recent. I caught like 30 minutes of the Hasselhoff Nick Fury on the USA network of Sci-Fi a couple years back. I figured it was a made-for-TV type thing. Those other I think were intended to be released to theaters.

Those were bad years for Marvel films. Dolph Lundgren Punisher. Fantastic Four. Captain America. I remember seeing posters for Cap "Coming Soon" at the theater. But then it never came out. I've actually never seen the film. Punisher and FF, though... phew! Tough to stomach the stench. I remember the FF filmmaker bragging about how they did more FX shots than Terminator2 with 1/10th the budget. After seeing the movie, it shows.

Johnston has a ton of SW creds. He looks like a solid pick. In particular, I think The Rocketeer has a similar tone to what I'd hope for from Captain America. Cap probably shouldn't be quite as sappy, but it needs to have the same lack of cynicism and pro-America patriotism.

I dropped HBO after moving to Pittsburgh. I figure I can rent the True Blood Blu-ray when they release it in a year or so.
