Dennis Green, who was a beloved former head coach of the Minnesota Vikings and Arizona Cardinals during a 13-year NFL career, died Thursday night. He was 67. “Dennis passed away last night from complications of cardiac arrest,” Green’s family said in a statement, according to Espn. “His family was by his side and he fought hard.” Green was only the second African-American head coach both in Ncaa Division I-a history (at Northwestern) and in modern NFL history (after Art Shell).

To misquote and paraphrase football coach Dennis Green, is Kevin Smith who we thought he was? He's been "Nerd On The Front Lines" recently, not for his films as much as being the one "in-the-know" regarding major geek properties. He's been allowed inside the Star Wars: Episode VII studios, and he's especially been privy to information regarding Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice (thanks to his long friendship with Ben Affleck). But what if it's also because he's something of a spy? MovieWeb is claiming that they've learned a very suspicious, highly bizarre "truth" from a Warner Bros. informant: Kevin Smith has been spreading misinformation regarding Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice. Specifically they point to a leaked script for the movie that has landed in the hands of a few web writers, one that highlights all the news we've been hearing so far - which may or may not...

Much like the dreary, bitter weather that turns January into a desolate tundra, new releases that appear during this month also typically experience that same deep freeze in terms of quality. Coming off a December awards season push, studios dump lesser movies in hopes that the lack of competition will let cinematic duds score big at the box office because there’s simply nothing else to see. Don’t believe me? I just watched The Legend Of Hercules. Well, not so much “watched” as “sat through an agonizingly embarrassing film that defines what a bad 3D conversion looks like.” January brings a bit of a cinematic Ice Age, and our latest victim is none other than the film I’m here to review, Ride Along.
In this stereotypical buddy comedy, we meet Ben Barber (Kevin Hart), a lowly security guard who learns that his dream of joining the police academy just came true.

Gary Dion climbed aboard a long, sleek van one recent morning and emerged minutes later with a bandaged finger, a little less blood in his veins and a big smile.
The 55-year-old special-effects supervisor who works on the hit show "Bones" said he's been feeling a little weak lately and wanted to know why. So when he heard that the Motion Picture & Television Fund's mobile health clinic was stopping at Fox Studios in Century City where he works, he signed up for the chance for a physical, a blood test and an examination of a smashed-up finger.
"These guys are a blessing," said Dion, who once led the roller skating dance crew in the 1980 movie "Xanadu." "I didn't have to get in my car and drive to see a doctor."
Four times a week, the medical clinic on wheels parks and rolls out the red carpet inside five different studio...

Remember that hysterical clip that made the rounds a few years back of Cardinals coach Dennis Green repeatedly bellowing, .They are who we thought they were!. after his team blew a late lead against the Chicago Bears? Well, if last night proved nothing else, it.s Seth MacFarlane is exactly who we thought. He.s a pompous douche with a shit-eating grin, a razor sharp wit and a sometimes sophomoric sense of humor. Personally, I think that.s a good thing. Maybe you think otherwise. Ordinarily, I would agree to disagree, but considering all of the hogwash I.ve read today about how MacFarlane was apparently a) sexist and b) one of the worst hosts ever, I can.t hold my tongue anymore because both of those statements are just factually wrong. First of all, last night.s ceremony was not sexist because there.s a major difference between jokes...

It seems ironic that the title of the movie is "Identity Thief" when its co-stars have such a firm grasp on their well-established screen personae.
Melissa McCarthy is the brash wild card with an off-kilter sense of humor and an underlying, slightly dangerous streak. Jason Bateman is the initially bemused but increasingly frustrated straight man whose deadpan quips seem to be the only things that keep him sane.
These two opposites are stuck on a cross-country road trip together but no one's really going anywhere; to borrow from that famous Dennis Green rant when he was still coaching the Arizona Cardinals, "They are who we thought they were." Optimally, with a better script, that wouldn't be such a bad thing. Instead, "Identity Thief" strands these two ordinarily enjoyable comics in the middle of nowhere with no help for miles. "Midnight Run," it is not. It's actually not even "Due Date,...
