The story so far:
Kieran Joeseph Jupe:
Meanwhile in Clacton, I asked the guys who made the Cube soundtrack about personal use/release and I got told to ask some other guys. I will keep you posted on progress.
…
‘Dear Kieran,
Thanks for your enquiry.
The Cube music isn’t available commercially I’m afraid and you are the first person who has enquired to be honest. We normally release commercially if we get inundated with enquiries. In the event that we do decide to release the music then I will keep your contact details and notify you accordingly.’
Can everyone email politely sarah@bdimusic.com otherwise it might never happen.
Meanwhile:
Tim:
Done 🙂 Please can everyone else join in? Ask for links to MP3s rather than a CD release (it’ll be less effort for them).
So there you go, I endorse this campaign.
In the meantime, unfortunately I’ve yet to find The Challenge: Cutthroat availiable for download anywhere, but don’t let that stop you. If you’re in the UK download something like Ultrasurf and then go and watch it on the mtv.com site.
The rules of The Challenge change from season to season, this season thirty contestants (as is usual for The Challenge, most of them are previous challengers, or have participated in The Real World or the now defunct Road Rules) are split into three teams. They compete in challenges and live in a big house in Prague, winning a challenge wins $20k for the team’s bank and a lovely prize. Losing a challenge means your team must secretly vote to send one male and female into ‘The Gulag’, a tough (usually) physical competition where one male and one female will be sent home with no money. Anyone left after the ninth week of challenges splits their team’s bank between them, and the survivors compete in one more mega-team-challenge for an additional $120k prize.
Our opening episode had a drunken fight and nudity within the first twenty minutes, a really hard challenge involving cracking codes in rooms filled with tear gas followed by putting together a large 3-D puzzle, followed by a Gulag challenge which was basically pretty hardcore wrestling. Worth a watch.
Well the US’s new 1 VS 100 is semi-disappointing. It’s basically going to be the season two money ladder that made everyone win $250,000 or higher. You only start getting decisions when you knock out 50 people. Then it’s…
50-59: $2,500
60-69: $5,000
70-79: $7,500
80-89: $10,000
90-99: $25,000
100: $50,000
That’s disappointing. All but a few of the Mob members will be digitally imposed onto the set. Equally disappointing.
There is smaller money than that, but it’s only for the mob to split if the One doesn’t get far isn’t it? I look forward to the mob getting $5-$6 each on an early miss.
Although saying that, that was still funny when similar happened on Everybody’s Equal/Whittle. They have to work it out to the cent though.
I won seven pounds and fourteen pence on Whittle: one thirty-fifth share of two hundred and fifty pounds. (“Mmmm!”)
“That’s almost a pension for life!”
Here comes a river of money!
….And sent. Please send in people! Even if I can’t get it in America, I at least want it released. TT_TT
They don’t ever show The Challenge stuff on UK MTV, do they? I don’t think I’ve ever seen one, anyway.
No I don’t think they have. And it’s a real pity – I saw the last season on a whim havingt not seen it before and really enjoyed it.
The Challenges tend to be a lot more action packed than Survivors, which seem to have fallen into a safe rut.
