The MTV Movie Awards were tonight and you didn’t miss anything. Between a few funny bits from Andy Samberg, Bruno (Sacha Baron Cohen) putting his butt crack in Eminem’s face and Megan Fox and Ana Faris serving as visual Viagra, you might have caught this extended clip from “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.” If you didn’t, you can see it below. My take? The CGI werewolf is lame and I’m also wondering with the emotionality of the Bella/Edward love affair is …

Hayden Panettiere, best known as the cheerleader Claire Bennet on NBC’s “Heroes,” is out promoting her new movie “I Love You, Beth Cooper” via Facebook MySpace and YouTube, inviting visitors to www.iloveyoubethcooper.com to upload a video of them saying something they’ve always wanted to say to anybody they wish. The confessional videos are titled “Beth Cooper Moment of Truth” and winners will have their confessions featured in “I Love You, Beth Cooper” TV spots. “I Love You, Beth Cooper” is …
Everybody loves “Up” and that was etched in stone over the weekend when theatergoers anxious to see Pixar’s new computer animated masterpiece poured in $68.2 million, knocking “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian” out of first place and dropping “Terminator Salvation” to fourth place. “Star Trek” stayed strong in the fifth spot, with a four week gross of $209.5 million. Frankly, I can’t see “Up” relinquishing the top spot anytime soon, either. I don’t think upcoming releases “Land …
There is a scene in Pixar’s new computer-animated film “Up” where the entire life, from youth to old age, of our grumpy, square-jawed, prune-faced protagonist, Carl Fredricksen (Edward Asner), is played out in a matter of minutes. Accompanied by composer Michael Giacchino’s (“Star Trek,” “Ratatouille”) gentle piano-based score, and without any dialogue, we catch a glimpse of Carl’s simple, stress-free and full-of-love life with his childhood sweetheart, Elie, who, at the end of the montage, passes away. It’s a moving …
I was perusing the web this morning and came across these “Twilight: New Moon” images at Entertainment Weekly’s website. I’ll be frank, I have no idea what is even happening in these photos, but my guess is Bella is pouting in both and these rugged, over-stylized vampires are giving her tender, yet firm guidance. And of course the one with Edward Sparklepants is definitely ending in a cold, pasty kiss. These do nothing for me, but if you’re a “Twilight” …
Its official, folks – Christian “It’s F***ing Distracting” Bale and his “Terminator Salvation” action extravaganza was not only beaten by “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian” at the box office this past weekend, but was soundly spanked like a whiny, petulant child, which, in Bale’s case, might be somewhat true. And thus it can now be etched in stone: The Fandango Five can suck it. NATM: BOTS, as it’s called by text messengers everywhere, earned a weekend gross …
The Fandango Five tried to make me look like a cotton-headed-ninny-muggins on Friday with the irrelevant tidbit that “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian” was number four in online ticket sales leading into the weekend, hence giving the impression it wouldn’t come close to touching “Terminator Salvation” for the top spot, and maybe would even be trumped by “Star Trek” or “Angels & Demons.” But, see, here’s the thing: I am never wrong! So, with great humility I …
Eeek! So much for everyone fawning over Quentin Tarantino’s supposed greatest screenplay ever, i.e. the oft-reported on “Inglourious Basterds.” Word out of the Cannes Film Festival is mixed and RottenTomatoes.com has the movie at 57% on the Tomatoemeter, with 14 reviews posted (eight fresh, six rotten). And don’t think those snooty French filmgoers and their love of aberrant sex and all things boring have this film painted into a corner. No, sir, our beloved American critics are pooping on this …
