'New Moon,' 'Himym' And Lady GaGa In Today's Twitter-Wood

18 November 2009 4:00 PM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

It comes as no surprise that supporting cast members in "New Moon" would try to splinter off their own factions in the endless "Team Edward vs. Team Jacob" debate, but it looks like BooBoo Stewart's got at least one backer for Team Seth, judging from his TwitPic upload today. Tinsel Korey, meanwhile, remains firmly behind Team Jacob.

In non-"Twilight" posting today, Danny DeVito had a nice showing for his birthday last night, even if his picture wasn't high enough quality to make Twitter Pic of the Day. Neil Patrick Harris posted a new shot from the "How I Met Your Mother Set" and David Wain contributed a courtside view from the Lakers game. Check out all of those after the jump where you'll also find out which actress enjoys dancing to Lady Gaga and which actor claims he's the only one who didn't audition for "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. »

Josh Wolk's Pop Culture Club talks Monty Python: Do the shows still hold up?

22 October 2009 7:45 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

This week at the Pop Culture Club the plan was to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Monty Python’s Flying Circus. Or was it? In my endless masochistic desire to get us to objectively rejudge our nostalgic favorites (Vacation? Yes. Meatballs? No), I wanted to see whether the Python TV series still held up. After all, comedy has had 40 years of evolution since we first heard the word "It's..."; putting aside how ingenious you might have found the show when you first discovered it, you have to concede the possibility that it could all seem very slow, flat, or dated by now. »

London Film Festival: Lessons in Love

16 October 2009 7:55 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

London Film Festival: Lessons in Love Dear Lemon Lima, dir Suzi Yoonessi Wah Do Dem dir Sam Fleischner/Ben Chace A Thing Called Love (shorts programme) Today's lesson is all about love: the things we we do, etc. Poor Vanessa Lemor (l'amour—get it?). All she wanted when she entered Nichols High School was to maintain the affections of her beloved, geeky Philip Georgey. But, alas, Philip is a social climber and rejects her, leaving poor Vanessa (Savanah Wiltfong) to her dreams and her diary entries, addressed to Dear Lemon Lima, [1].... Fear not, though, as Vanessa gathers the assorted Fubar (F_ed Up Beyond All Recognition) geeks in the school and sets out to beat Philip at his own game in the (well, it is Alaska) Snowstorm Survival competition. Atypical of this kind of Revenge of the Nerds scenario, the setting is used to good effect in highlighting co-optation of indigenous culture, »

13 October 2009 4:31 AM, PDT | icelebz.com | See recent iCelebz news »

Rockers Blink-182, along with a star-studded crowd, showed up to help support skateboarder Tony Hawk and his 2009 Tony Hawk: Ride Presents Stand Up for Skateparks. The fundraising event was held at Green Acres Estate in an effort to help build a skatepark at the foot of the famous Watts Towers.

Along with an intimate performance from Blink-182, the day also featured a festival-like atmosphere highlighted by a Vert Demo that featured a Who's Who of X Games including Hawk, Bucky Lasek, Andy Macdonald, Pierre-Luc Gagnon, Simon Tabron, Coco Zurita, Lincoln Ueda and Kevin Staab. Tom Green and Fred Durst also attended the event to help cheer on the riders as Hawk performed his signature 900 for the crowd.

Fans were able to play in interactive booths and bid on items ranging from signed skateboards to a "Hawkized" Ford Mustang to "Roadie for a Day" with pop-star Miley Cyrus. In total, »

Khloe & Lamar's Marriage: How Long Will It Last Vs. Other Famous Couplings?

10 October 2009 5:30 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom may have 'wed' on September 27th, but they still aren't legally married. Reports claim the prenup is still being hashed out. As we wait to see if the pair will ever legally be man and wife, we thought we'd take a look back at some of Hollywood's other shortest weddings, and then vote. Whose marriage will, in length, be most like that of Khloe & Lamar? Will they be like Eddie Murphy and 'wife' Tracey Edmonds, who never made it legal before splitting? Will they last 5 months like Tom Green and Drew Barrymore? Or will they make it two years, like Britney and Kevin Federline? Perhaps they'll stay together forever. Scroll through the below, remember some of Hollywood's shorter marriages, and pick what you think the most likely outcome is for the reality TV couple. »

Bunny and The Bull Video Clip (New Film From The Mighty Boosh Team)

2 October 2009 5:25 PM, PDT | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »

Drawing early comparisons to the films of Michel Gondry is Bunny and The Bull, the debut feature from writer/director Paul King, best known for his work on the BBC's wonderfully disoriented comedy series The Mighty Boosh. The movie co-stars the Boosh's Noel Felding and Julian Barratt, the latter of which can be seen in the below clip...as a bum who savors a creature's teat. Peta is likely nonplussed, but it's pretty funny, to Tom Green included. Scene reminds me of a less disgusting Kingpin. Bunny and the Bull is said to be not as comedy-centric as the Boosh, and a shade or three darker. The main character is Stephen (Brit actor Edward Hogg), a young adult who remains cooped up in his pad for many month due to agoraphobia and general mental illness. But then a rodent infestation completely shatters his comfortable, reclusive day-to-day. Having just dealt with »

Drew Barrymore Dishes on Love

Actress-turned-director Drew Barrymore tells Parade she's in no rush to fall in love.

"Sexual love is secondary to me right now," Drew dished to the mag. "I've spent a lot of time in my life dedicating myself to love or the pursuit of love or the understanding of love. But for the last few years, my life just hasn't been about that for me."

Jay-z Blazes A Trail On 'Trl'

4 September 2009 11:40 AM, PDT | MTV Newsroom | See recent MTV Newsroom news »

By Gigi Abrantes

Since he first dropped his debut album in 1996, Jay-z became an instant classic on the hip-hop scene. Now that he is about to drop his 11th album The Blueprint 3, MTV News takes a look back at the history of one of the greatest artists in rap history with The J to Z of Jay-z.

In the heyday of MTV's "Total Request Live," there was always tension in the studio surrounding just whose video would top the daily chart. Backstreet Boys or 'Nsync? Britney or Xtina? Sometimes "Trl" got turned upside down when Eminem, Blink-182 or Tom Green crashed the countdown with send-ups of the biggest stars of the day, but most weeks came down to a solid pop music rivalry.

But Jay-z leveled the playing field for hip-hop on the show. Any music video from any genre had a chance of making it to the top »

Discuss: Blatant Movie Rip-Offs

31 August 2009 3:02 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Back in 2000, a week after it was out, my roommate and I went to see Road Trip. It was to be the funny cap to a long day -- she had thrown me a daytime surprise party, and we rushed to the theater once everyone left for a little movie fun. At the time, Tom Green was still pretty popular, and it seemed like the right end to the day. But while everyone else giggled, I grew more and more incensed. I had seen this film before. But the first time around, it didn't have a weird guy tonguing a mouse -- it had a super-cute pair by the names of Ivy Miller and Wyatt Tripps. Road Trip was a barely disguised copy of Overnight Delivery, which had come out two years before.

Maybe if it was five or ten years after the other, I would've let it slide as some sort of tribute. »

Alexander Skarsgard: Happy Birthday! (And thank you, Sweden!)

25 August 2009 5:39 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

We know we're teetering on Alexander Skarsgard overload (or, maybe that's just me, someone who watched two of his Swedish films on YouTube last weekend), but with only two episodes left in True Blood's second season, we have to find every semi-legitimate excuse to write about him now. So, suck it up! Today, Skarsgard turns 33. Since we've already covered his hotness, Eric's hotness, and why Sookie is drawn to Eric's hotness, we thought we'd celebrate by listing the things we're grateful to Sweden for producing. (That torso goes without saying.) Annie Barrett: The film Let the Right One In, Ikea, Double Chocolate Crisps by Gille, 10 percent of the music on my iPod (the Knife, Jenny Wilson, Robyn, Lykke Li, Kleerup, etc.; plus, no one is allowed to forget "Lovefool" by the Cardigans) Michael Slezak: Ummmmm...urrrrrr.  I j'adore Isabella Rossellini, and her mother is Swedish! I can't really get with Ikea, »

Heidi and Spencer Overshare About Their Sex Life in Playboy

13 August 2009 7:45 AM, PDT | Popsugar.com | See recent Popsugar news »

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt joined Kim Kardashian and Stephanie Pratt to film scenes for The Hills at a Brent Bolthouse photography exhibit in La last night. Heidi's Playboy cover hits shelves tomorrow, but the interview portion is out now. Spencer conducted the questioning of his wife, in an article that provided way Tmi about their sex life. The quotes speak for themselves, so here are a few highlights: On Lc's rumored sex tape: Heidi: "There are a few moments I’d like to see blasted into space forever. Like when you apologized to Lauren Conrad for the sex-tape rumors so she would come to the wedding, when we know for a fact she did have a sex tape." Spencer: "I would have said anything so you could have your dream princess wedding . . . But I was lying about being apologetic, and I hate lying . . . Yes, I facilitated the rumor, but it was true. »

Hell's Kitchen: Preview of Episode 6.4 "13 Chefs Compete"

3 August 2009 4:08 PM, PDT | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »

Thirteen chefs are left. On tonight's episode of Hell's Kitchen, the chefs partner up for a challenge that includes making perfectly positioned six-inch sausages. One chef will reportedly explode no thanks to the rising tension between the chefs. As if host Gordon Ramsay wasn't pressure enough, Drew Lachey, John O'Hurley, Tom Green, Melinda Clarke, Chris "Kid" Reid and Kristy Swanson also stop by Hell's Kitchen for dinner service.

Predictably, some things don't turn out right. The red team's dishes are sent back to the kitchen for being too salty, while not to be outdone, the blue team's food is cold, causing Ramsay to blow a gasket.

21 July 2009 2:30 PM, PDT | Popsugar.com | See recent Popsugar news »

A handful of Hollywood's most hilarious actors and actresses gathered together for the premiere of Funny People in La last night. Eric Bana and Seth Rogen suited up while Adam Sandler kept to his casual style. Leslie Mann made a splash in her all-pink ensemble, but Rashida Jones looked equally gorgeous in muted tones - what lipstick shade do you like best on her? Director Judd Apatow had three dates for his big night, though his wife and daughters earned their tickets with roles in the film. On July 31, we'll get to check out the film, and it already seems like a home run with such an entertaining cast. View 55 Photos › To see a lot more photos from the night, just read more.

Hollywood — When your first two movies are "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" and "Knocked Up," it's hard to top yourself. But Monday night at Hollywood's famed Cinerama Dome, Judd Apatow brought some very "Funny People" along to the premiere of his latest directorial effort — and admitted to feeling some extra love for the film's semi-autobiographical characters.

"These are terrible people; we're good people," grinned the filmmaker, who based much of the film on the days when he and Adam Sandler were roommates and struggling comedians. "But there are elements that are similar to us, in that we love comedy and hanging out with comics — and now that we're older, we're trying not to become [Sandler's bitter character] George."

Todd Phillips Discusses His Musical Decisions For ‘The Hangover’

12 June 2009 3:00 PM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

by Ryan J. Downey

The shenanigans Zach Galifianakas and crew get up to in “The Hangover” are nothing compared to the protagonist in director Todd Phillips’ debut. The maniacal star of 1994’s “Hated” slashed himself with razor blades, crapped on nightclub stages and verbally sparred with Geraldo. And that guy — late punk legend G.G. Allin — was a real person.

Considering Phillips’ deep roots in punk rock, heavy metal and other subcultural genres, defining musical moments like The Cramps and Danzig songs in “The Hangover” or the Metallica and Black Flag jams in “Old School” make a lot of sense. Skate-punk hero Mike Vallely, whose band Revolution Mother was invited by Philips to write a track specifically for the movie, cameos as the tuxedo rental guy who hands “The Hangover” crew their clothes on the freeway.

A couple of the musical moments in “The Hangover” — like Mike Tyson singing and air-drumming »
