Uwe! Justin and Kelly! The Decade's Best Bad Movies
4 December 2009 5:59 PM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
It's list time again, this one courtesy of The Onion's Av Club. The Best Bad Movies of the Decade is really a hard thing to categorize. The first rule is probably that the bad movie intended in some way to be bad, right? I mean there are plenty of bad movies that just wind up being bad for one reason or another, but to reach this level almost takes a certain devotion to not being great.
Beyond that, you have to not just be bad but so gloriously bad that people (like me) believe you had to plan it that way, if not all the way through then at least when it became obvious during the production that the only way audiences would ever remember the movie is by making it so lousy that it's unforgettable.
So I don't have a major problem with this collection (although I think Dreamcatcher »

Up in the Air Review: Book Your Ticket Now
2 December 2009 11:21 AM, PST | TheHDRoom | See recent TheHDRoom news »
Jason Reitman is on a roll. His first film, 2005's Thank You For Smoking, is a smart, satirical adaptation of Christopher Buckley's novel about a spokesperson for the tobacco industry (Aaron Eckhart). Two years later, Reitman directed Juno, the sweet little indie comedy that could and did win over critics and the public alike while pulling in a huge $150 million in ticket sales. Now, the young filmmaker takes another huge leap forward with the new comedy/drama Up In the Air starring George Clooney, Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick.
Based on Walter Kim's novel, Up In the Air centers around Ryan Bingham (Clooney), a corporate downsizing expert that flies around the country to lay people off from various companies. Living - and loving - a solitary life out of a suitcase, Ryan is on the verge of completing a personal goal: reaching the airline milestone of flying ten million miles. »

Five Reasons You Should be Watching ABC's "Flash Forward"
25 November 2009 10:01 AM, PST | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
Here at AfterElton.com we're usually all about the gay — Torchwood, Brothers & Sisters, Adam Lambert. But just like all of you, gay isn't the only thing we are and I occasionlly make time to watch a show without any gay/bi men on it. I know, I know! What a concept!
Case in point, one of my favorite shows of the fall season is ABC's Flash Forward — even though the gayest thing about it is the fact that Joseph Fiennes played gay in Running with Scissors.
Shocking, I know. A scripted program on ABC without a 'mo. But even so uit has its charms. I hereby present five reasons you should be watching.
1) Stuff happens, questions get answered.
Unlike certain shows — yes, I'm talking to you Fringe — so far Flash Forward hasn't gone off on endless tangents having nothing to do with the show's overarching mystery. Yes, I know the »

Molly Sims and Aaron Eckhart are new celebrity lovers.

Michael Caine Says Batman 3 Might Not Happen

Batman's faithful butler, Alfred, has dropped bad news ... again.
Batman fans everywhere have been furiously blogging and discussing the twists and turns in the will-they-or-won't-they debate over a third installment of Christopher Nolan's revamped Batman franchise. Early on it was announced that, although lead actor Christian Bale was contractually obligated to appear in Batman 3, Nolan had no such obligation and might decide not to direct another one.
Screenwriter David S. Goyer gave fans some hope when he said that he believed Nolan would return if he could "find the story that he's happy with." Then, Gary Oldman got everyone excited when he announced that filming would begin in 2010, only to recant his statement a couple days later.
Actor Cillian Murphy, who played The Scarecrow in the first two films, is hopeful that another film will be made, and Aaron Eckhart, said that he "would do anything" Nolan asked of him, »

'Batman 3' May Never Happen
12 November 2009 6:52 PM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »
Despite a good reception for "The Dark Knight", it appears that Warner Bros. Pictures has not had any plan about making the sequel. Recently, one of the "Batman" stars, Michael Caine, told British magazine Shortlist that he doubted the studio will ever make "Batman 3".
"I don't know if they are ever going to make another 'Batman'," Caine said. Even if there will be the third film, the depicter of butler Alfred Pennyworth claimed it will not be happening soon, as he stated, "If they do it won't be for quite a while." However, he added, "As for the future... if they ever make another 'Batman' I will be in, I will be the butler..."
Talks of a follow-up to "The Dark Knight" have been circulating around since the movie blew up in the box office and collected awards. Recently, it was reported that the next installment of the "Batman" film »

Monologue - Beauty Queen
9 November 2009 8:04 PM, PST | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
Jose here bringing you the Monday Monologue.
From the moment Erin Brockovich was released, in March of 2000, everyone knew that Julia Roberts would win an Oscar for it. There was nary a review that did not point out how fantastic she was, how she carried the burdens of a dramatic role so well (after practically creating the entire rom-com movement throughout the 90's) and how big her boobs looked.
But beyond the awards craze, the "she can act" novelty and the miniskirts, the truth is that Julia had created a character all her own. One that might've looked and sounded like Julia Roberts, but was all Erin Brockovich.
This is never as evident as in a small, intimate scene where Erin opens up to a man (her biker neighbor played by Aaron Eckhart) for the first time in years. Are you gonna be something else that I have to survive? »

The New York Public Library's Annual Fall Benefit Raises Record-Breaking Funds
3 November 2009 4:35 PM, PST | Vanity Fair | See recent Vanity Fair news »
The atmosphere at the New York Public Library dinner. From PatrickMcMullan.com. Stocking-less women sporting short cocktail dresses hung off the arms of their bowtie-clad dates as they glided up the steps of the New York Public Library’s Stephen A. Schwarzman building on Fifth Avenue last night, making the annual trek to the Library Lions fall benefit. Despite the gloomy economic climate, the party raised more that it ever has, with the cocktail and dinner pulling in $2.5 million, and the junior Young Lions dance portion of the evening raising nearly $220,000, which was 45 percent more than the target goal. “We couldn’t have asked for a better turnout or a more energetic crowd than the one that came to support the library last night,” said Nick Brown, who was a chairman of the Young Lions’ benefit committee along with Emma Bloomberg, Aaron Eckhart, and Scarlett Johansson, among others. Before the seated dinner, »
Ne-Yo Is Fighting 'Battle: Los Angeles' To Prove He Can Act
18 October 2009 10:27 PM, PDT | MTV Movie News | See recent MTV Movie News news »
'We gonna see if I got any chops,' the R&B star says.
By Eric Ditzian

Ne-Yo has played it safe thus far in his burgeoning film career, opting to appear in films like "Stomp the Yard" that have kept him on the familiar ground of music and dance. Now the R&B singer is trying to bust out of that mold with two military roles, portraying a World War II fighter pilot in the George Lucas-backed "Red Tails" and a Marine corporal in 2011's sci-fi flick "Battle: Los Angeles."
As Ne-Yo himself attests, these two movies will show the world — and himself — whether he's actually a decent actor. "We gonna see if I got any chops," he told MTV News. "I don't know. I'll let y'all be the judge, how about that?"
The decision to expand beyond dance movies, the singer explained, stemmed »
Amber Heard Talks Zombieland, The Stepfather, and The Rum Diary
17 October 2009 11:01 AM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner admitted to Empire that Wolverine 2 is the "furthest along of all the X-Men projects on the boil." The sequel will be an adaptation of a Wolverine solo comic book series from the 1980s that follows Wolverine as he travels to meet an old flame in Japan.
It's actually the story we wanted to use for the first Wolverine film, but [Fox head honcho] Tom Rothman preferred to set the character up with an origin story first. This movie will really focus on the relationship between Wolverine and Mariko, the daughter of a Japanese crime lord, and what happens to him in Japan. We're very fortunate to have a story mostly outlined for us [from the comic book arc co-written by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller].
Shuler Donner believes the movie will also be shot in Japan and is hoping "to have the Japanese Fox executives involved in helping and counseling us" in order to maintain authenticity. She says even screenwriter »

Amber Heard Exclusive Interview: Talks The Stepfather, Zombieland, and The Rum Diary
15 October 2009 3:36 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Opening tomorrow is the horror/thriller “The Stepfather”. The film is about Penn Badgley’s (”Gossip Girl”) character returning home from military school and finding his mother living with a new boyfriend. As the two men get to know one another, Badgley’s character grows suspicious. As you might imagine, action ensues. Anyway, I got to speak with Amber Heard earlier today as she plays the Penn Badgley’s girlfriend in the movie. While readers of Collider know I prefer doing video interviews, Amber was only available for phoners, so that’s how this was done.
During our short conversation, Heard talked about making “The Stepfather”, doing a cameo in “Zombieland” (she played the hot neighbor in the beginning of the film), and she also talked about playing Johnny Depp’s girlfriend in next year’s “The Rum Dairy”. Our conversation after the jump:

'Resistance 3' Revealed On Billboard?
12 October 2009 11:30 AM, PDT | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
Some carefully planned in-movie marketing may have given away some unofficial details about "Resistance 3" this week. A snapshot shows a billboard left at a recent filming location for the Aaron Eckhart and Michelle Rodriguez movie "Battle: Los Angeles." If this billboard is actually being used to advertise the next "Resistance" sequel, it's a fair bet that the game's launch will correlate with that film's February 2011 release date. Furthermore, the logo appears to show a silhouetted Statue of Liberty in the middle, indicative of some New York City involvement in the game.
The two photos come from a "Battle: Los Angeles" set in Shreveport, Louisiana, according to the user who posted them on NeoGAF.
Corporal Capelli and Nathan Hale took it to the Chimera in "Resistance 2," but the aliens may have quite a comeback plotted if the next battlefield turns out to be Manhattan.
None of this seems to be official yet, »

Can divisive 'Oleanna' unite Tony voters?
12 October 2009 11:02 AM, PDT | Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news »
David Mamet likes to provoke audiences so he should be pleased with the divided critical response to the Broadway revival of "Oleanna." This battle of the sexes was a huge hit off Broadway in 1992 but this production marks its first Broadway staging. The stars of this version of "Oleanna" are Bill Pullman -- who earned a Drama Desk nod for his only other Broadway appearance in 2002's "The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia?" -- and rialto newcomer Julia Stiles. Stiles starred in an acclaimed 2004 London production of "Oleanna" opposite Aaron Eckhart and she and Pullman appeared in this same staging earlier this year in Los Angeles. Mamet is a prolific writer with half a dozen works having premiered on Broadway and another -- "Race" -- opening this December. Just two of these -- "Glengarry Glen Ross" and "Speed-the-Plow" -- contended for best play at the Tony Awards. Though "Glengarry Glen Ross »
