As promised a large gallery update. During the sites transfer I kept busy by capturing lots of episodes. However, I also spent the time capturing some of the casts past projects.
Most recently I captured cult classic Dr. Giggles in which Holly Marie Combs plays Jennifer Campbell, a young teenager with a problematic heart. Dr. Giggles is the psychopathic son of the town doctor who escapes from a mental institution to take revenge on the town for killing his father. His mother had died of a heart condition and when he finds that Jennifer Campbell is in need of a heart transplant, he vows to finish his fathers work and carry out the operation on the girl. You may also notice Keith Diamond looks familiar as he played Inspector Reece Davidson in season three and returned in season 7.
The film is available to download from RapidShare in sections but please note it is rated a 18 and may have some scenes which upset younger viewers. You will also need a password to access the files which is EatinSquirrel
In other Holly news, she went undetected when she appeared in General Hospital, she played Jessica Mitchell in the long running series. Although doubtful I will see if I can find the episodes online and post links for you.
Finally, Holly is currently on set of Mistresses filming the new series in Canada. It looks to be a hit and again when the show is aired I will post links for you. At the moment no new news about the series but it is set to hit our screens next year.
Holly’s long friend Shannen Doherty has also appeared in cult classic Mallrats. Although I never sat down and watched the film properly I did manage to capture it all for you. She starred along side Jason Lee who now plays Earl in ‘My Name is Earl’ who we all know Alyssa Milano is starring in too.
In Mallrats Shannen plays Rene Mosier who dumps her boyfriend Brodie (Lee). Brodie meets up with his friend who subsequently was also dumped on the same day. They head off to the local mall and whilst there they hatch a plan to create all sorts of havoc in order to win back their girls.
Shannen has confirmed that she will be returning to the new Beverly Hills 90120 although there are still a lot of rumours flying around about it. The latest being that Tori Spelling has walked away from the new series in a argument over pay, claiming that she was offered almost half of what Shannen Doherty was to reprise her role per episode.
Shannen’s character Brenda will return as a successful director who is invited back to stage a musical at her alma mater. I’ve never seen a episode of the series! But look forward to the new ones. Her representative says ‘Shannen is looking forward to returning to 90210’ . The series is set to return later this year.
Rose McGowan caused a royal storm at the San Diego Comic Con convention as she released that she will be playing Red Sonja. She will also be working with fiancé Robert again as he directs the film. Not only have amazing teaser posters been released but our petite Rose has said she is training hard for the new film up to 3 hours a day and has started sword training. Thanks to the role it looks like we will be seeing Rose return to red hair again… I wonder if she will use a potion again? Red Sonja is set to hit a screen near you in 2009.
‘Red Sonja is about a young girl risen from the ashes of tragedy to become the most feared woman warrior of all time. The mythical red-head blindly seeks vengeance on those who destroyed her family. In her path of destruction she discovers a larger purpose for her unearthly powers: to save all Hyrkania from the villainous Kulan Gath.’
Also Rose’s film 50 Dead Men Walking will be hitting the screens soon at the Toronto International Film Festival on various days in September.
Our wonderful Alyssa Milano hit UK shelves recently in Pathology now available on DVD – I forgot to mention. We are still missing some of her appearances from My name is Earl but these will be added soon.
Alyssa is also set to hit our screens in another television series Single with Parents. She will be playing Lou and although there isn’t very much information on the project, it seems that this is just a test pilot. Hopefully though this one will be picked up. It looks as though Alyssa will be a main character on the new series.
Busy, busy, busy, Alyssa has also been promoting her new range of Touch, I have completely neglected the events section of the site but aim to fill them up soon… its on the list. The new line of clothing will also include jewellery and Alyssa is very happy with the range.
In site news. I am working on finishing the episode captures and then hoping to steam through and make a huge dint in the casts past projects. I am also looking at and collecting videos for a large video achieve as there is no where that has all the original trailers, random rants, specials, ect all in one place.
Hi everyone, A little later than planned the site transfer is complete :). Sadly not all of the images downloaded but I was able to replace them. I am looking to install a new media achieve.
As promised I have finished Season 4 Book of Shadows entries. The season has been completely finished and I will move onto season 7 shortly.
You can also expect a lot of new updates in the Gallery over the next few days as I will be adding episode captures, screen captures of past projects, new images all sorts really so keep a eye out.
As if that wasn’t enough I will be bringing you the full updates on the cast of Charmed.
Hi everyone, I’m really sorry its been so long since my last post. Unfortunately there was a delay in the transfer which has put us behind schedule. You will be pleased to know that the site is coming back and I have been working behind the scenes to make sure we return with lots of new stuff for you.
As luck would have it, the transfer began when I was sneakily working on the Book of Shadows section forcing me to stop! However, there is only one episode left to do and once we are back up and running I will finish it off for season four.
I have also been busy capturing episodes and now we only have two episodes left to finish off season three. Speaking of pictures you will all be pleased to know that the gallery survived the transfer! YAY ! I was some what unsure about it at first but its worked great. Sadly though the pictures are uploading rather slowly because there are so many of them! The episode pictures have been uploading non stop for three days and have still not finished. These should be done by the end of today and I will move on quickly to restoring the rest of it.
The site was only offline for a few hours during the transfer which was great as the name servers reset in record time.
There has been some news on the cast of Charmed but I am going to wait until I can add pictures to the gallery to go along with it and I will write a big update detailing everything that has happened instead of bringing you it in dribs and drabs.
As posted a few updates ago FanSource (who we are hosted with) will be changing providers from the 25th of July and therefore we may have some problems. Earlier this year when the site crashed taking with it everything we had my backups were not extensive enough to repair the site effectively and so instead took many hours to get it online. This is something I want to avoid happening again and to ensure that the site has full backups that will upload quickly I am going to close updates on the site early. This will ensure that nothing is missing and that minimal work is needed to restore the site. In the long term this will serve the site best. However, I am still working on it behind the scenes.
Someone e-mailed me yesterday about Shannen movies and unfortunatly I haven't been able to get in touch with them as the e-mail keeps bouncing. They asked if I would be posting links to Shannen's television movies. I have been looking for Shannen's films but unfortunatly they are not available at the moment but I will continue to hunt.
Sticking with Shannen, you can see her in the new season 3 captures I have been doing as promised. Sadly I won't be doing them in order but that means I can get all the favorites out the way and do the rest later.
Anyway first episode I have started with is Power Outrage which is infamous for the spilt of the Charmed ones that affected the Book of Shadows so badly (and for all you BOS nuts there are lots of pics of the not so appealing triquetra in the Gallery for you). Between flying cameras, flying blenders and flying Phoebes how do they get anything done :). There are 102 captures in the Gallery for your viewing pleasure.
Neighbour: - Perhaps we should build a fence to keep you in. Piper: - Good idea.
Yet another famous episode now, Sleuthing with the enemy in which the Halliwells finally find out that Cole is actually half demon half human villan Belthazor who has been assigned to kill them, and the episode in which Phoebe fakes Cole's death. Ive added 114 captures to the Gallery.
When I extracted original Lifetime movie Wisegal onto my desktop I expected to sit down and watch a film filled with all the dark deeds of the mob mixed with weak writing portrayed by the wonderful Alyssa Milano. I don’t mind admitting when I am wrong and boy was I wrong, I guess I should have known after all Alyssa doesn’t just do any old job.
The film starts of just as good as it finishes and Alyssa plays her character beautifully. As the film begins the mob begins to seem like more of a appealing occupation but views soon changes. This film is sheer excitement from beginning to end and is totally worth the long download time.
To get this video all you have to do is download the files from each of the links below, you should end up with seven of them. The process will not work if you do not have all of the files. You will then need to ensure you have a program like WinRaR or Winzip which can be downloaded freely on the Internet. You will then need to go to the are where you downloaded them and click on the first file part 1. You should see a video file in their, you can either drag it out of the folder or you can watch it from there with a suitable media player. Its up to you. This film is not the easiest to download but it sure is worth it.
Reunion, reunion, reunion everywhere but now it is no longer just in the music industry. World known Beverly Hills 90120 is set to make a dramatic return and Shannen Doherty is in talks to replay strong tempered Brenda. She is very interested in picking up her role againbut, she wants to know what the story is going to be first. She also wants more money than is offered for the role according to rumours.
Finally, I have been able to find some high quality pictures of the 100th Charmed episode celebration. For such a milestone pictures sure are hard to find. There aren’t that many of them but the few we do have, have been added to the gallery.
Even though it took a little while longer than usual season two's captures are finally finished. I have also added the final Book of Shadows pictures to the section too.
I love this episode, Tuatha’s wand is simply one of my favourite props of all time. I don’t know why but I always seem to miss the $15 wand’s down at the flea market. Shame Betty’s no longer around to help me out :]. There are 156 captures for the episode.
Piper: - He should be battling acne at his age, not evil witches.
Also, I just wanted to let you all know that from Friday 25th July the site is likely to experience some down time as FanSource, who we are hosted with, changes provider. Hopefully this wont be too long but I just wanted to make you aware of it way in advance.
As many of you know when it comes to Charmed I have a little bit of a weakness and that comes to Charmed collectables too. Many of you who have contacted me know of my vast collection. Well recently I have decided to sell it all! From board games, props, books, film canisters, magazines, CDs, figures! Yep it all must go and you can grab a great bargain over on eBay Kieran7261. There is so much coming in the next couple of weeks that you can't afford to miss out on atleast 'window shopping'. Unfortunatly for Phoebe, I don't own any shoes for sale.
Busy, busy, busy. Now armed with high speed wireless Internet I am able to work on the site from my bed :].
Way back in 2003 Alyssa Milano fans were shocked to see her sporting a very sexy short hair style. However, this was not the first time Alyssa has had a short hair style. Way back in 1989 Alyssa was a well known music artist in Japan, her CDs came with a booklet of pictures which I have scanned. These are exclusive to ThEldersBox and are very rare so please do not repost them anywhere else. There are 37 images in the gallery.
Speaking of Alyssa, I added her final two appearances in My Name is Earl from season three. Alyssa is due to return to the show for season four. Captures for Killerball and Love Octagon are now available. Within the next couple of days look forward to captures from Wisegal.
When the gallery went down at the beginning of the year, Rose McGowan’s photoshoots were lost but luckily after finding a old backup CD that surprisingly worked, I have been able to re-add many of them. 172 images have been added.
Last but not least I have added captures for season 2's Apocalypse Not.
Long awaited are these captures of Holly in Point of Entry. After she and her son were attacked late at night whilst her husband was away, Kathy Alden and her family move to a Hidden Glades estates a high security neighbourhood. The Alden’s soon learn that evil lives everywhere.
If you intend on watching this you may want to avoid viewing these pictures to keep the ending unspoilt. I personally loved the film and found the writing to be much stronger than I had originally thought. Also added is a promotional picture for the movie.
What sort of apology covers a whole month of neglect? The answer, none. I’m really sorry for the complete and utter lack of updates both on and behind the scenes of the site. Time just seemed to fly by. Now however, armed with wireless Internet and a whole 6 weeks of summer holidays to work on the site you will see a dedication beyond belief.
Some of you may have noticed downtime during the end of last month, this is due to the domain expiring even though it was supposed to automatically renew. Unfortunately this didn’t happen and I was unable to fix it for several days.
As you can see we have returned with a brand new layout. This is something that I have been working on for several weeks on and off and I’ve finally finished it. Its much lighter than anything else we have had recently and it is dedicated to 10 years of Charmed as this year we see the 10th year anniversary of Charmed. The site has also been adapted to tables, which means that the content of the site should now stay in the middle of your screens.
In Charmed news its time to start saving as brand new editions of the Charmed DVDs are going to be released on November 18th. Based on the Australian DVD collection that was designed in a Book of Shadows style there will be two different versions available, one standard and one luxury which vary in size. Extras rumoured to be released in the set are:
The Original, Un-Aired Pilot Behind-the-scenes featurettes including: The Demons of Charmed The Men of Charmed The Book of Shadows some Easter eggs
In other Charmed news contrary to what was told exclusively to ThEldersBox.com by a Titan Magazine representative, it seems that the Charmed magazine will indeed be ending this year as rumoured earlier in the year. The last magazine to hit our shelves will be the September / October issue 24.
ThEldersBox has always brought you the latest information on the Halliwell Manor in LA with property evaluations. Well last most the house finally went on the open market. The house was listed as $709,000 cheaper than the 1.1 million which was estimated last year. The five bedroom one bathroom home is more than enough for the Halliwells to move in. Potential buyers of the home are worried about the fame of the home with regard to Charmed fans knocking.
In Charmed cast news Alyssa Milano is starring in a new television comedy pilot Single with Parents. The pilot started filming in June. No information about the pilot has been released yet.
Alyssa is also scheduled to appear in season four of My Name is Earl. Some captures are missing from the gallery of her appearances but they will be added soon.
After 2006 Holly Marie Combs left the lights of Hollywood only to return to work on Lifetime television movie Point of Entry. I personally loved the film. You can download it online at the following two links. The video is 697 mb when extracted. To do this open up the first file once both have been downloaded and extract it onto your computer and play with a suitable media player. You will require a password to the file which is http://irfree.com. Just a warning some may find some scenese disturbing.
In other Holly news, she has returned once again to Hollywood to participate in another Lifetime production. The drama pilot 'Mistresses' based on the UK BBC show is being adapted to American television. Holly, Brook Burns and Rochelle Aytes have signed to star in the half hour pilot.
Mistresses revolves around a group of four thirtysomething women who have been friends since college. Holly plays a stay-at-home mom who gave up her career named Jane.
Holly will be answering questions in a celebrity-babies.com interview. If you have questions regarding business or motherhood for Holly (this is not a chance to ask her about Charmed) you can email them to hollyquestionsATgmailDOTcom. Holly will not be able to answer all inquires received. This is also not Holly’s personal email address (I don’t know what it is) and has solely been set up for the questions. Likelihood is that best ones will be chosen and asked to Holly.
Rose McGowans relationship with Robert Rodriguez is still going strong. Although no further movement has been made regarding their engagement the couple continue to work together.
Rose is preparing to star in a cinema adaptation of Red Sonja with Rose expected to play the red haired comic-book character. Douglas Aarniokoski is set to direct the film and it is expected to hit screens in 2010. Production is due to start in October.
Finally it seems Shannen Doherty is due to co-star in SciFi Channel film ‘The Lost Treasure of the Grand Canyon. A plot of the film has been released and sounds interesting. It seems although Shannen left Charmed she is still taking on the supernatural to protect those she cares about.
Set in the Grand Canyon, a team of Smithsonian researchers have stumbled across a lost walled Aztec city guarded by some evil spirits, including a "great flying serpent of death." As days turn to weeks, Sarah Jordan, the daughter of the professor leading the expedition, assembles a team to rescue her father and his colleagues from the clutches of the ancient Aztec warriors and their horrible serpent god.
Although I did promise to have season two captures finished several weeks ago I never got around to doing it. However, I have been busy working on the final four episodes and now there is only one left. Captures for the rest of the seasons will continue throughout the summer holidays and large dints have already been made in other areas. There are currently three seasons left which need captures adding to them.
Yep more captures for you all. Only 6 more episodes until season 2 has been finished. For all you Book of Shadows fans I have added season two's Book of Shadows pictures to the gallery.
I think I speak for many fans when I say this is one of my favorite episodes. From beginning to end I just loved the whole idea, I don't think I've ever been able to watch a horror movie without double checking to make sure the Demon of Illusion isn't planning to make his come back in it.
Prue: Yeah, well, the house is a mess again. I mean, how come we can't fight the demon of cleanliness or the demon of housekeeping, or even that really big bald guy, Mr. Clean? I would so totally take him on.
... Yet another fun episode, when Dr. Williamson is accidentally injected with the Halliwell's blood giving him their powers which he uses them to 'save' innocents lives.
More captures for you all, I knew aiming to finish the season by the end of the week would be tight but it does seem like I won't be able to make it but I will try my best.
For now though, relive the magic by going way back to season 2. Whilst capturing episodes I usually check up on the main characters from the episode, however I'm saddened to tell you that Anne Haney who played Aunt Gail in the episode died in 2001 from heart failure.
Phoebe: I do not need glasses!
Charmed fans are known for their dedication to the show, but lets just hope our dedication doesn't leave us being face-to-face with one a Libris demons.
As promised I have added the final two episodes of season eight that were missing from the gallery, finishing off the season's captures.
Don't we all know how the words 'cold hearted assassins' just rolls of the tongue, according to Billie its a very well known saying.
Phoebe: Piper, what was in the food? Piper: Food was in the food, thank you!
Its a good thing that everything happens for a reason because without destiny Henry and Paige may never have met, which would leave the world without protection from evil from little Henry and the twins. I guess evil had no chance with the amount of lil witches the Charmed Ones popped out.
Piper: The partys on dude!
.... also added were the Book of Shadows captures from the season. The next season to be completed will be season two followed by three.
Yet again more pictures for you, I'm still aiming to finish off season 8 and season 2 before I go back to college. From old to new pictures, I have added yet more new high quality pictures. There are 9 new pictures in the gallery. These have taken me a long time to scan, crop and resize so please do not re-post elsewhere.
... it seems like ages since I added episode previews. There are 140 new captures for The Jung and the restless.
Paige - Please, tell me I'm not dreaming about myself. Why can't I dream about somebody cool like, I don't know, Quentin Tarantino?
As you can all probably see I have added a new layout :). I don't usually like to change the colour of images but in this case I think it works really well. Since this year we will be celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the airing of the first ever episode of Charmed I wanted to reflect that in the layout.
However, in my absence I neglected to inform you of two other important events. The 17th May marked the 7th year of Prue's final episode All hell breaks loose airing but five days later on the 21st May it marked the 2nd year anniversary of the final episode of Charmed!
As promised I bring you some new high quality episode pictures. These have taken me a long time to scan, crop and resize so please do not re-post elsewhere.
... from pictures you have never seen to captures of episodes we all know and love, in my haste to get the season finished I have completely lost track of what I have and haven't told you have been added. According to my list of episodes, there are only 70 left to capture, Im not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing.
Hey all, I'm really sorry for not keeping you all up to date. I wanted to return with a new clean layout but haven't been able to come up with anything. Hopefully inspiration will strike soon.
However, that doesn't mean I haven't been working away behind the scenes, I have been working hard to get season eight screen captures finished this week so that I can finish off season two next week. I've done so much I can't remember what I have and haven't added.
I know I haven't been adding the expected event pictures. I do intend to regather all the ones I have missed for you I promise and I intend to add a load of old ones going way back. I have also decided not to include candid pictures anymore but I will keep you up to date on the girls latest outings.
I would just like to add that the site WILL be staying online for another year atleast, the domain renewal is due next month and we will be back for another year, but that doesn't mean we will be around forever.
In Charmed news.... Holly has confirmed in a recent online message that she has decided to take a step back from the lights of Hollywood to become more of a 'normal' mother. She has also released two images of 18 month old Riley. Unfortunatly my internet connection is too poor at the moment to add a new section to the gallery for them, so for now I will have to direct you to Innocently Charmed.
I thought it unnecessary for a stay-at-home mom with nothing to promote but breastfeeding!
I last reported on Rose's bad luck on breaking her foot, the self confessed accident prone actress was running late to her fitness session with her personal trainer when it happened, but still managed to finish her session... what a trooper.
Alyssa's make up commericials have reached the UK according to my mother :). I personally haven't seen them yet but according to her it featured a before and after?
In gallery news.... We have some more exclusive scans from the stickers coming your way shortly I just need to sort them out.
Self confessed clutz Rose has been in another accident and now has her leg in a cast, not the most glamourous piece of footwear shes worn I'm sure. She has to keep wearing it for the next six weeks.
I had a fight with a wall, and the wall won. It sucks.
However, Rose's streak of bad luck didn't end there, more recently her eleven year old Boston Terrier, Fester, has been diagnosed with a brain tumour.
He’s 11 years old, but five weeks ago he was jumping in the air, I’ll get to spend more time with him [if the strike occurs]. For now, we all have to say a prayer for Fester.
Rose is now welcoming the possibilty of the actors strike that is due to start shortly to spend time with him.
Rumours has been flying round that Holly has changed her as recently seen on her IMDB profile. As far as I know Holly has not officially changed her name and she would not have much say over her IMDB profile as the site is independant.
In other news, I am very very excited to see Holly in another new movie Memories of Murder. From the cast list it seems there are a lot of similarities between it and Charmed with character names as Paige Matthews and Cole Turner. Its unclear if Holly has been officially cast as the role has been offered to many others like Heroes star Ali Larter who turned it down and Ashley Laurence is credited to be playing the same character. I guess we will have to wait and see.
It seems every other day I am logging in to tell you of some excuse why I haven't been updating. This week is no different :). I have a whole day of exams on Friday totalling about 7 hours and so I have been super busy revising and have stayed away from the site. However there is a upside, after Friday I only have one more day with exams but get three weeks off for study leave so Im all yours!
Just because I've been away from the site doesn't mean I haven't been working on it. Last weekend I added new captures and during the mean time have been using my spare time to capture some season eight episodes. Yet again no previews sorry, there are just too many.
... and I have added some captures of Rose and Shannen's past projects. Roads to riches - Rose played Moire, a exotic dancer in 2001. Category 7 : End of the world Shannen played Faith, a top weather expert. The feature was split into two parts at the moment I have only captured one half but the rest will be up soon.
... and as many of you are Book of Shadows fans, I wanted to let you know that the captures of the Book will not be added to the main section in the gallery until the seasons are finished, which shouldn't be long.
