Rashid Irani s Review A Christmas Carol

3 hours ago | Hindustan Times - Cinema | See recent Hindustan Times - Cinema news »

A Christmas CarolCast: Jim Carrey, Gary OldmanDirection: Robert ZemeckisRating: *** Clearly, he’s techno-friendly. Robert Zemeckis, the director of the Oscar-grabbing Forrest Gump, has obviously not rested on his laurels. On the heels of what has been termed the ‘performance-capture’ technique evidenced in The Polar Express and Beowulf, he returns with A Christmas Carol. Although this may not be the best version of Charles Dickens’ novella, there’s plenty to marvel at: the wondrous 3-D visuals, Victorian England settings and inspired multiple performances by Jim Carrey. The script zooms in on the fabled miser Scrooge (Carrey, almost unrecognisable under ... »

Oscar Nominating Committee Definitely Not on Team Jacob

12 hours ago | E! Online - UK | See recent E! Online - UK news »

It's safe to say there are no fanggirls at the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences. The Oscar hander-outers today revealed the 15 films shortlisted as semifinalists in the category of Achievement in Visual Effects ahead of the Feb. 2 nominations, and sadly neither Taylor Lautner's lycanthropic transformation nor—more impressively—his abs made the cut. But what the maybe-contenders lack in werewolves, they more than make up for with wands, black hole-injected planets, kids' literature classics and, well, Jim Carrey. The gold man will be handed out by Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin and their cadre of A-list presenters (there's hope for the wolf pack, yet!) on March... »

What will you miss about Flight of the Conchords?

22 hours ago | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »

After just two series of sharp, innovative comedy, Flight of the Conchords is bowing out

Over 22 episodes, Flight Of The Conchords has made stars of its cast, won a glut of awards and, most importantly, wrestled the funny song back from the evil clutches of Richard Digance. But the final episode of Flight of the Conchords' second season appeared to have an uneasy air of finality. And now that has been rubberstamped. Yesterday a message appeared on the official Flight of the Conchords website reading, "We are today announcing that we won't be returning for a 3rd season. We're very proud of the two seasons we made and we like the way the show ended."

It's undeniably sad news. While best of the decade lists may overlook the Conchords in favour of The Office, it was one of the most innovative comedy shows of the last few years. In »

30 Rock Review: "Secret Santa" (episode 4.8)

23 hours ago | Pastemagazine.com | See recent PasteMagazine news »

You know, I like Christmas episodes. They're cheap and easy, they tend towards heavy-handed moralizing and more often than not they end up sickeningly saccharine in a way that makes me wish the holiday would just go away. But when done right, they just kind of hit that special sweet spot that manages to be both heart-warming and funny. Think of the original Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas as the rarity in pulling things off and Jim Carrey's nightmare-inducing demonic crap-o-rama from a few years back as the other 90% of things out there. For whatever reason, regardless... »

‘MacGruber’ movie the best since ‘Wayne’s World’?

10 December 2009 1:58 PM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »

Good heavens, it sounds bad doesn’t it? MacGruber…the movie? From SNL, MacGruber is one of the weaker ongoing skits on the show, yet, yes, Universal wanted to proceed with a big-screen adaptation of it.

But perhaps all those feelings are in vain because it seems a test-screening for the MacGruber film actually generated some positive buzz. According to Vortex Blog, MacGruber is “the best SNL film since Wayne’s World back in 1992.” <spit out water>

“It manages to take the concept of the original sketch and infuse it with new life. It generally works at all times, and manages to combine physical comedy, witty banter, and awkward sex. If you enjoy a good comedy, go see this movie when it comes out next year.”

The film stars Will Forte, Val Kilmer Ryan Phillippe and Kristen Wig.

McCarthy Dreamed She Left Carrey At The Altar

8 December 2009 5:31 PM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Actress Jenny McCarthy is so against the idea of wedding her longtime boyfriend Jim Carrey, she dreamed she'd jilted him at the altar.

The model-turned-actress has been dating Carrey for four years and the couple has been living together since 2008.

But the former Playboy model insists she has no plans to exchange vows with The Mask star because she already considers herself "married" - and she would only ever rethink her decision for financial purposes.

She says, "I had a dream last night that I left him at the altar because I don't want to get married. We are married, we don't need a piece of paper. Maybe one day (we'll marry), when I'm 80 and I need a tax write off!"

McCarthy was previously married to actor/director John Mallory Asher, with whom she has a son, Evan. The couple filed for divorce in 2005 after six years as husband and wife.

Carrey is a double divorcee - he split from first wife Melissa Womer in 1995 after eight years of marriage, and went on to wed his Dumb and Dumber co-star Lauren Holly in 1996. They split less than a year later. »

Action-Adventure ‘Nutcracker’ Coming From New Line

8 December 2009 4:30 AM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

For many families around the world, watching The Nutcracker in some form or another is a holiday tradition. Whether it’s live at the ballet (where the story comes to life to the music of Tchaikovsky) or in any of its numerous screen adaptations (such as the animated Nutcracker Prince), the story has been told and retold countless times since it was first written in 1812 by E.T.W. Hoffman as The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. Now, thanks to New Line studios and writer Darren Lemke, we’ll get one more look at the famous story.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lemke pitched New Line a reimagined version of the story that is written as a family action-adventure film, similar in style to the popular Chronicles of Narnia films. For those unacquainted with the story of The Nutcracker, here is a brief recap from the THR report:

Jenny McCarthy is looking forward to becoming a first-time grandmother at age 37 - when her longtime partner Jim Carrey's daughter gives birth in the New Year.

She says, "I'm going to be a G.I.L.F. (Grandma I'd Like to F**k) at 37. Jane, Jim's daughter, is having a little boy in February so I am happy to be called 'Grandma' and take this baby on and just love it to pieces."

Jane is Carrey's daughter with first wife Melissa Womer, who he divorced in 1995. »
