BTTF Hover-boards by HUVr Tech Was this viral marketing for a possible Back to the Future reboot? Nope, just a CollegeHumor hoax They even released a YouTube video featuring none other than Christopher Lloyd Cosmos on Fox Cosmos is a reboot of a 1980's series that was originally hosted by Carl Sagan In the reboot, renowned scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson is the host. Seth McFarlane is an executive producer and ultimately was the one responsible for getting it back on the air. Sagan’s widow had the rights to the show, and it was McFarlane that was able to convince her to let it go to Fox. Cosmos aired on 10 Fox channels and affiliates. Fox, National Geographic Channel, Nat Geo Mundo, Fox Life, FX, FXX, FXM, and even on Fox Sports 1 and 2. But not Fox news, surprise surprise.

The FCC is issuing fines to the sum of $1.9million to those stations that misused the emergency broadcast system tones. Freedom of speech doesn't apply when you are creating a false panic. The offending trailer: Connecticut to ban loud movies So get this, some idiots in Connecticut has decided to try and ban loud movies. That's right, any movie over 85dB will be considered illegal. Guy breaks 85dB every week here at MovieGuys HQ! Legally he won't be allowed near a theater! To put things in perspective, street traffic is comparable to 85dB "Hopefully this will be a wakeup call to the theater owners and the MPAA to get their act together and do something that's good for the public and still will satisfy their needs," said William Young, a Stamford resident and chemical industry consultant who has pushed the measure. "Why they need such loud sounds is beyond me."
