- "The movie takes Johnny through the world championships in 2008; the series picks up from there," Pellerito said. "The focus of the series is how Johnny deals with [his fifth-place finish] at U.S. nationals this year, not going to worlds, and the challenges he has trying to make the [2010] Olympic team again."
"The idea is for it to start [airing] in very early January," Barba added. "There will be eight episodes, seven [taking place] before the Olympics and the eighth after the Olympics. That final episode will be sort of a 'Where is Johnny now?' wrap-up."
Imo, this sounds very interesting. I'm really looking forward to it!!  And here is a "Pop Star on Ice" Teaser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUF6QaFs9EgReally cool and I love what he does with his voice!!  |

IMHO, his body looks more like that of a 11 year old boy, LOL. At that age their bodies aren't very well developed. In Johnny's case, he's kind of neutral. - Quote :

Your reference to the plane-bird thing, actually, it's a take-off from the lead-in line to the old 1950's Superman TV series (the one broadcast in black and white) where the opening dialogue goes: "Look! Up in the sky?! It's a bird! It's a plane?! No! It's Superman!" Regarding this documentary with Weir, I find it kind of curious that he'd go along with this. I don't really see the point of doing the whole thing, LOL. I mean, what were the producers' intentions? It certainly wasn't to bring attention to the sport of elite figure skating. I can't imagine that the USFSA had a hand in setting this project in motion, did they? I guess I really don't see the point in doing a project like this. If this was a made-for-TV kind of thing, then....maybe I could understand why the producers went to all the trouble and expense. But, as I understand it, this was merely an independant film and not conceived for mass distribution. From that trailer it doesn't appear that the film does a whole lot to promote men's singles skating. The fact that Weir is an elite figure skater is more of an interesting sidelight. It appears the producers were intersted, mainly, in Johnny's diva-esque personality.  Whatever. Mary C. |
