Wesley Snipes Talks Film Projects After Prison
12 August 2011 12:48 AM, PDT | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »
Action star, Wesley Snipes is currently serving a prison sentence for tax evasion in the McKean Federal Correctional Institution in Pennsylvania. His projected release is June 19, 2013. In the meantime, the man is keeping as busy as one can keep in prison, even going as far as to do interviews. IGN was able to conduct a lengthy interview with Snipes, who spoke in depth about his plans for a return to the world of film upon his release. A video game that he's involved with for the iPhone, 'Julius Styles: The International' was released yesterday. Describing the idea behind the character, he said: "The concept is an amalgamation of the "international spy, security specialist" characters I've played in a couple of films, a street novel that an early incarnation of my production company, Amen Ra Film, acquired back in the late '90's, and a persona played by Chow Yun Fat »

Transformers: Dark Of The Moon (2011): What did you think?
3 July 2011 2:44 PM, PDT | Film-Book | See recent Film-Book news »
Now that you have seen Transformers: Dark of the Moon, what did you think of it? Is your movie review of Transformers: Dark of the Moon that it is better than Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? It couldn’t have been worse, could it? We reviewed that Transformers film here: Film Review: Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen. Sami Jarroush, in the video below, feels the same way and touches on a few other key points.
Video: FilmFan: ‘Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon’ and ‘Larry Crowne’
Plucking down $12 -$20 dollars to see CGI robots fight in 3D is an expense some people have chosen to avoid in lieu of seeing the film in 2D for $5-$10. Were you one of them?
I have heard that critics are almost divided on the film and read some criticism of first-time actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley acting ability. If this is true, what did these people expect? »

Catherine Tate: Meet Steve Carell's Potential 'Office' Replacement
19 May 2011 4:51 PM, PDT | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »
The name Terry Tate has been synonymous with ridiculous corporate drudgery since a series of Reebok ads introduced us to a football goon known as the Office Linebacker who inexplicably dishes out punishment to abused drones working in a cubicle farm. But British actress Catherine Tate may soon be the Tate most associated with destroying white-collar workers' wills to live, if a Hollywood Reporter article suggesting that she has become the front-runner to replace Steve Carell on "The Office" turns out to be true and results in her joining the NBC »

The Hollywood Reporter scored an exclusive with the story of writer/director Rawson Thurber (Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story) negotiating to film the pot comedy that started the film-scripting careers of Steve Faber and Bob Fisher back in 2002. The writing duo had been TV writers when they decided to write a comedy spec to break into features.
And so they birthed We’re the Millers, a story about a pot dealer who wants to make one last score before retiring from the business on his 30th birthday.
How big? 1,400 pounds.
How’s he’s going to drive a Winnebago to Mexico, fill it with over half a ton of weed, and drive it back across the border? By hiring a fake family.

Transformers: Dark Of The Moon (2011): Movie Trailer: Michael Bay
28 April 2011 6:12 PM, PDT | Film-Book | See recent Film-Book news »
The Transformers: Dark of the Moon Movie Trailer has premiered. Michael Bay‘s Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011) stars Shia Labeouf, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, John Turturro, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Transformers: Dark of the Moon’s plot synopsis: “the Autobots and Decepticons become involved in a perilous space race between the U.S. and Russia, and once again human Sam Witwicky has to come to the aid of his robot friends. There’s new characters too, including a new villain in the form of Shockwave, a longtime “Transformers” character who rules Cybertron while the Autobots and Decepticons battle it out on Earth. The Autobots learn of a Cybertronian spacecraft on the Moon and must race against the Decepticons to find it and learn its secrets, which could turn the tide in the Transformers’ final battle.” I actually like the sound effects from the Transformers: Dark of the Moon: Super »

Californication Review: "Lawyers, Guns, and Money"
13 February 2011 6:00 PM, PST | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
On "Lawyers, Guns and Money," Hank Moody doing a PSA was a rich concept. It would be akin to seeing if Charlie Sheen is available to talk about the dangers of hookers and blow because, like they say, “The More You Know.”
My worst fear came to fruition on this episode, though, as apparently we have seen the last of Sasha. There are so many things I will miss about her, but two stand out.
Karen prescribed the perfect remedy for Hank’s social malady: get his head out of his ass. Hank lost his charm switch, but it also seemed like he lost something else. I got the feeling that he very easily could have just packed it in and gone off the deep end.
Hank always struck me as the guy who would try anything twice. I don’t think we’ll see him in the ER again any time soon, »

Why were Super Bowl Commercials extra-violent this year?
7 February 2011 3:45 PM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
During this year’s Super Bowl commercial breaks, Roseanne got knocked over by a log for Snickers and Grizzly bears wrecked a car for McDonald’s. Cars.com poisoned one dude, body-scrambled another, and shot an unfortunate cowboy full of arrows. Pepsi had two separate commercials that ended with the same punchline: Someone being hit in the face by a full can of Pepsi Max. (A possible tagline could be, “Pepsi Max: Tasty and Concussive!”) Also, House threw his cane at an adorable child, a pug dog smashed through a door for Doritos, and that terrifying green android apparently stole someone’s thumbs. »
