Revenge Season Finale: Did Emily Reach Her Goal? Who's Playing the Revenge Game Now?
Oh my God, Revenge! The show that has consistently delivered twist after turn all season long just finished off its season finale with a bang...literally. Let's recap the milestones in the shocking season finale.
Emily managed to "steal" the evidence against Conrad and his co-conspirators by telling Daniel that a white-haired man had broken into her house and swiped it. Naturally, Daniel headed straight for Conrad, telling his father everything.
Meanwhile, Emily attempted to get into the information herself, but found it locked tight. What's a girl to do? Call Nolan for help, of course! But, as Emily soon discovered, Nolan had been kidnapped by the white-haired man (who I'm going to call Whm until I figure out his name, because I can't remember it right now). Telling Whm over the phone that she was »

Gossip Girl Preview: Who Will Blair Choose in the Season Finale?
After the shocking ending of last week's Gossip Girl (Bart Bass is sill alive!), Chuck began this episode by confronting his father about faking his death. It turns out that Bart was being threatened all those years ago by a business competitor who also happened to be very dangerous. After getting in the car accident he decided to fake his death in order to protect Chuck and Lily from retaliation by this competitor. After "dying", he turned to Diana for help in hiding. He also revealed that she helped him get into the country undetected in order to donate blood to save Chuck's life after his own car accident.
Chuck was happy about his father being alive, but was devastated when Bart insisted that he had to leave in order to remain safe. It sent Chuck on a quest »

'The Big Bang Theory': Three is the magic number
3 May 2012 10:43 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
With the wedding of the century (or at least the week) just around the corner, things were bound to go a little haywire on "The Big Bang Theory." And sure enough, complications began to emerge on Thursday (May 3).
[Spoiler Alert]
Everything actually started off just fine for Howard (Simon Helberg). The nervous flyer got some good news when he learns that his trip to space has (at least momentarily) been canceled. But the problem kicks back in when Nasa calls to reschedule his flight for the same weekend he's to marry Bernadette (Melissa Rauch). While she's ok with changing the wedding date, Howard then needs to secure the approval of her father. And that offers some unexpected results.
For those rooting for Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Penny (Kaley Cuoco), there's some good news and some bad news. The good news is Leonard asks Penny to marry him. The bad news is he asks her during sex. »

Jennifer Connelly Set to Rejoin Darren Aronofsky for Noah
14 April 2012 10:12 AM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
Noah isn’t the first film-related comic book venture by Darren Aronofsky; Aronofsky was also working on a comic book called Pi: The Book of Ants while making his debut Pi. Well, his big-budget, edgy re-telling of the Noah story was slated for a March 28th, 2014 release by Paramount Pictures and New Regency. For the male lead, [...]

Darren Aronofsky’s ‘Noah’ Will Dock In March of 2014
13 April 2012 1:22 PM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
Years upon years of rumors, comments, and half-truths often made it feel as though Darren Aronofsky would never get Noah off the ground — but then Russell Crowe gets cast, and the rest just falls into place at the drop of a hat. With shooting now being scoped out for a July commencement, BoxOfficeMojo reports that Paramount have set an official release date for the Biblical epic: March 28th, 2014.
My main takeaway: This would make Noah his first non-awards season release since Pi — which is, you know, his first movie that nobody saw in theaters — and it’s a scheduling choice that probably reflects on the film as a whole. While I’m not exactly concerned about him delivering something bold, original, and exciting, Aronofsky‘s already said that Noah is, for all intents and purposes, his spin on the event film. And, like everyone else, I can’t wait to see what that may bear. »

How Clint Mansell Brought ‘Moon’ Down to Earth For Three Nights in La
12 April 2012 4:00 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
Los Angeles’ Largo at the Cornet is a small venue where even the last row in the house is a good seat. There is no preferential treatment here, no seats sectioned off for “special” guests. In previous trips, I did the non-spoken eye move indicating that the two seats in my row were open to a tall man in a baseball cap (who I later realized was Rainn Wilson) proving that everyone here is equal, we have all gathered for the same reason and that unspoken knowledge makes the link between each person in the room (at least for those few hours) palpable. The man of the hour this particular night even pointed out that while he had put him on the guest list, he was not sure Moon director Duncan Jones had actually made it out only to have Jones confirm his presence by shouting, “I’m right here, mate »

'Big Bang Theory': Theoretically funny
5 April 2012 10:20 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
"The Big Bang Theory" has had their fair share of noted scientists - George Smoot, Brian Greene and Neil deGrasse Tyson - guest star on the show. But on Thursday (April 5), they landed the the top of the heap with Stephen Hawking. So how did it all work out?
[Spoiler Alert]
The premise of the episode is that Howard (Simon Helberg) is helping out Hawking while he visits the university. When Sheldon (Jim Parsons) finds this out, he can barely control himself, and he desperately wants to present the noted theoretical physicist with a paper he's written on the Higgs boson particle.
But Howard isn't so quick to make that introduction. He's resentful of the fact that Sheldon frequently treats him poorly. So he decides to exact a little bit of pain on Dr. Cooper before agreeing.
Howard puts Sheldon through a series of torturous activities, each one worse and more humiliating than the next. »

The Films Of Billy Wilder: A Retrospective
27 March 2012 1:44 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
"I want to thank three persons,” said Michel Hazanavicius, accepting the 2012 Best Picture Oscar for “The Artist.” “I want to thank Billy Wilder, I want to thank Billy Wilder and I want to thank Billy Wilder.” He wasn’t the first director to namecheck Wilder in an acceptance speech. In 1994, Fernando Trueba, accepting the Foreign Language Film Oscar for "Belle Epoque" quipped, "I would like to believe in God in order to thank him. But I just believe in Billy Wilder... so, thank you Mr. Wilder." Wilder reportedly called the next day "Fernando? It's God."
So just what exactly was it that inspired these men to expend some of the most valuable seconds of speechifying airtime they'll ever know, to tip their hats to Wilder? And can we bottle it?
Born in a region of Austria/Hungary that is now part of Poland, Wilder's story feels like an archetype of »

It's a good week for … Numbers
16 March 2012 5:06 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
If there's one thing that you can count on this week, as you batter your remote control in the hope of finding something worth watching, it's that anything you randomly happen upon will have a medium-to-high probability of having something to do with numbers. Make a deliberate effort to see Touch (Tue, 8pm Sky1), as all signs point towards it being rather good. New from Heroes creator Tim Kring, it stars Kiefer Sutherland as father to an adorably muss-haired mute lad who spends his days pencilling apparently arbitrary strings of numbers in an exercise book. Instead of being random, these numbers predict an increasingly outlandish chain of events – and hint at a reality linked in ways our bog-standard perception struggles to comprehend. Its heady mix of Chinese mysticism and chaos theory recalls the mind-expanded gobbledegook of Darren Aronofsky's Pi, but there's a heart here bigger than Aronofsky's rather cold effort. »

Happy Pi Day! Here's a big slice of pop culture to help you celebrate
14 March 2012 10:35 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
It’s March 14, also known as 3/14, also known as Pi Day. To some, it’s the most wonderful day of the year, when math geeks and science nerds alike can join together in mathematical harmony to celebrate the majestic wonders of this baffling number. While this writer can proudly admit that she has memorized 72 digits of pi (it was for a seventh-grade math project, sheesh), it’s far more entertaining to reach into the depths of our pop culture-ingrained minds and discover ways this elusive, irrational number has riddled itself into our entertainment-based society. A few highlights below.

'The Big Bang Theory': The great escape
8 March 2012 6:10 PM, PST | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Sheldon is quickly working his way toward the title of "Worst Boyfriend Ever." Thursday's (March 8) episode of "The Big Bang Theory" is a perfect example of that.
[Spoiler Alert]
Howard (Simon Helberg), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Raj (Kunal Nayyar) decide to have a 48-hour "Star Wars" gaming marathon. This is music to Sheldon's (Jim Parsons) ears except for the fact that he's already committed to a birthday party for Amy's 93-year-old aunt. But fear not, as the genius figures his way out of it.
Amy (Mayim Bialik) is understandably hurt by Dr. Cooper's actions, and she seeks advice from Penny.
"My boyfriend's a jerk," she tells Penny (Kaley Cuoco). Amy adds that she just wanted to show off her first real boyfriend to her family.
Penny, being the only voice of reason in the crew, tells Amy that one way to get Sheldon to treat her better is to make a scene. »

Episode Recap: CSI: NY - 8.06: "Get Me Out of Here!"
6 March 2012 11:05 AM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
College kids run around a cemetery on Hallowe'en and a girl falls into an open grave and lands on a Db. Jo (Sela Ward) comments, "It's not often you find a Db where it actually belongs." Mac (Gary Sinise) claims he was dead before he got here. Flack (Eddie Cahill) is canvassing the area for a murder weapon and Jo asks, "expecting the dead to speak." The Db was hit before the fall. Nice moment between Jo and Flack that's what gives this show so much more in terms of character development and why it deserves to continue. That and great storylines. Oh okay I've had my rant at the beginning, never mind! The Db has four phones on him, which Flack calls overkill Mac: "...so does dying in somebody else's grave." Fisher (David Burke) is responsible for the cemetery and claims he isn't trained to handle this kind of death, »

Clint Eastwood Was Offered A Batman Role?!
28 February 2012 10:00 AM, PST | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Remember that rant I went on a couple weeks back about how Clint Eastwood playing an elderly Batman would be the only thing that could trump Nolan's Batman movies at this stage in the series? Turns out in his new book Tales From Development Hell: The Greatest Movies Never Made? writer David Hughes discusses a time where Eastwood was actually in the running for Batman!
Most Batman fans know that Batman: Year One (released by DC earlier this year in animated form) was actually first developed to be Batman's next movie following the flop that was Batman and Robin. It is known that Darren Aronofsky was set to direct the film, and it was ultimately shelved for Batman Begins, but Hughes shares some additional unknown info about casting and Joel Schumacher's third pitch for a Batman film. Read a piece of the excerpt below!

32 Things We Learned From the ‘Requiem For a Dream’ Commentary
24 February 2012 11:32 AM, PST | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
Before he taught Mickey Rourke how to wrestle or Natalie Portman how to Adagio, Darren Aronofsky was showing Jared Leto how to shoot up. Requiem For a Dream was the director’s second feature film – Pi came out in 1998 – and his position as an auteur began to grow from there. Some consider Requiem Aronofsky’s best film. Regardless if you find it engaging or grotesque, there’s no denying the man’s direction on the film is something to be appreciated. Even studied. So let’s take a few minutes and hear what Aronofsky had to say about Requiem For a Dream. There’s bound to be wonderful anecdotes about the director skipping with Marlon Wayans down the Coney Island boardwalk or buying ice cream in the Central Park with Jennifer Connelly. Surely this commentary can’t include anything too serious. The movie has a giant refrigerator that dances and sings. It »

'The Big Bang Theory': Sheldon's no Jeremy Lin; Is Penny the Artful Dodger?
16 February 2012 6:21 PM, PST | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
If there's one thing we learned from Thursday's (Feb. 16) episode of "The Big Bang Theory," it's to be careful of what you wish for because you just might get it. Also we learned that Sheldon (no surprise here) has no athletic talent whatsoever.
[Spoiler Alert]
Sheldon (Jim Parsons) and one of his many nemeses, Barry Kripke (John Ross Bowie), both have their eyes on a recently-vacated corner office. It offers everything a CalTech scientist should probably fear: natural light and windows that open. But going against their instincts, each decide they must have it. With neither willing to back down, this ultimately means the two choose to compete for the office.
With Harvard alum Jeremy Lin showing his domination of the NBA, one might extrapolate that geniuses Sheldon and Barry could have some deftness on the basketball court too. Well, sadly, they do not. So when a one-on-one game goes nowhere, as »

It’s that time again… here are the preview materials for DC Comics releases for May 2012.

Plus, with the return of Earth One, we also get the return of Earth Two– and the return of the World’s Finest.

'The Big Bang Theory': Almost perfect
9 February 2012 6:22 PM, PST | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
After a few weeks of deviating from the norm, "The Big Bang Theory" is back to where it should be, and we couldn't be happier.
[Spoiler Alert]
Sheldon (Jim Parsons) is required by the university to take a vacation. To no surprise, the workaholic isn't terribly interested in taking any time off, mostly because he's emotionally and intellectually capable of processing such an activity. So he decides to spend the week working alongside Amy (Mayim Bialik) at her biology lab.
"It's going to be romantic" she says, comparing their situation to Marie and Pierre Curie.
"Way to kill the mood," Sheldon responds.
While in the lab, Amy hands Sheldon the most mundane of tasks. Being the genius that he is, Sheldon is resentful of this. He ultimately acts completely inappropriate (in a Sheldon kind of way), which draws Amy's ire and some of his own blood.
In a well-fashioned subplot, Bernadette (Melissa Rauch »

'The Big Bang Theory': The road to recovery
2 February 2012 6:02 PM, PST | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Ah! Now that's more like it. After a few weeks of relegating Sheldon (Jim Parsons) to third banana on "The Big Bang Theory," show producers got it right on Thursday (Feb. 2).
Fed up with the incredibly needless "Roommate Agreement" that always seems to make his life miserable, Leonard (Johnny Galecki) tells Sheldon he is voiding the document. While this means little for Leonard, it throws Sheldon's life into disarray. And much of the episode focuses on Sheldon flailing about as nobody is there to attend to his every need.
In an ingenious plan to draw Leonard back, Dr. Cooper cuts off the power in their apartment building. The assumption is that Leonard will need Sheldon's emergency preparedness skills and, as a result, re-sign the agreement. While it doesn't happen quite this way, the two get back together in the end thanks to a little extra help from Penny »
