Bob and Harvey Weinstein, formerly of Miramax fame, have just signed a deal with the World Wrestling Entertainment to distribute all of the WWE's home video library, which includes past, current, and future releases. Plus, the deal opens up the possibility of theatrically releasing WWE videos, and provides them with a ring full of star material. Bob Weinstein told Variety, "Some of these guys are natural-born talents."

That's about when my head exploded. Have Bob and Harvey lost it? Or are they pure and total geniuses? Their Weinstein Company owns a majority stake Genius Products, who signed the WWE deal, which pushes me into the "lost it" camp. Don't call your company "I'm Smarter Than You Are Productions, Inc." unless you are itching for a smackdown. And here I swore I'd get through this post without saying "smackdown," dammit.

Three network talk shows passed on interviewing British actress Judi Dench, and Harvey Weinstein says it's because of her age. Dench is 71 years old and was recently doing the rounds to promote her movie, Mrs. Henderson Presents, for which she was nominated for an Oscar. Weinstein says she was turned down for interviews with Today, Good Morning America, and The View. The producers of those shows reportedly told Miramax that Dench "didn't fit their demographics."

The View and GMA released statements in response to Weinstein's whining, both saying that there wasn't room for Dench on their shows at that particular time. Both trumpeted Dench's previous appearances on their programs.

Didn't they try The Early Show on CBS? That show is so desperate for ratings, they'll take anyone.
