'Community' recap: What was that?
6 November 2009 4:58 AM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
There are off nights, and then there is last night's episode of Community. After being spoiled by two consecutive weeks of dynamite comedy, I sat there wondering whether I was watching the same show. Yesterday's episode was the equivalent of a bologna sandwich that had been left outside in the scorching sun for two-and-a-half weeks and then still deemed suitable to consume. Even Homer Simpson would have turned it down. I have no doubt that Community will rebound from this, and that last night's show, "Home Economics," will be remembered as merely a peculiar gaffe in an otherwise consistently engaging series. »

Get Smithers Laid! New Competition for AfterElton Readers
27 October 2009 5:53 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
The show has always had gay representation.
The Simpsons has been creating a memorable supporting cast for more than 20 years. We’ve seen characters come for a visit, like Grady (Scott Thompson), and we’ve seen them come and go and come back, like Sideshow Bob (Kelsey Grammer).
Grady and Julio were once Homer's roommates.
Some, like Grady, have been gay, and others like Sideshow Bob have been (inexplicably) straight. On the whole, the show’s been pretty good for gay representation over the years.
Marge’s sister, Patty Bouvier is a lesbian. She’s dated different men on the show before coming out, including Principal Skinner, while also flirting with Edna Krabappel. She had an affair with a female professional golfer. Well, she thought the golfer was female, even if it turned out differently in the end.
Patty had what she thought was a lesbian relationship with Veronica. »

New Tron Legacy Poster
27 October 2009 1:30 AM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
Check out new probably fun-made poster for upcoming Walt Disney Pictures film “Tron Legacy“.
Synopsis: “Tron: Legacy” is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that’s unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidant (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.
“Tron: Legacy” starring Garrett Hedlund (Troy, Hectic, Eragon), Olivia Wilde (Fix, Year One), Jeff Bridges (Iron Man, K-Pax), Bruce Boxleitner (Transmorphers 2), Beau Garrett (4: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Turistas), Karl Urban (Star Trek) and John Hurt (Hellboy II: The Golden Army »

The 'Unknown White Male' Nabs Diane Kruger and January Jones
26 October 2009 1:45 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »
If I told you the next Dark Castle horror-thriller flick would star January Jones and Diane Kruger, you'd probably be interested. If I told you that the most recent Dark Castle horror flicks were Whiteout, Orphan, and Return to House on Haunted Hill ... you'd probably be a little less interested. But with the presence of two stunning blondes (and a half-decent concept), Dark Castle's Unknown White Male is starting to sound a little intriguing.
According to Variety, Ms. Jones and Ms. Kruger will join the very busy (and very lucky) Liam Neeson in Unknown White Male, which "centers on a man who awakens from a coma to find that someone else has assumed his identity, and no one, including his wife, believes him." The director is Jaume Collet-Serra, whom the horror freaks may remember from (Dark Castle) flicks like Orphan and House of Wax. The stunning Diane Kruger is best-known for her work in Troy, »

Betty Draper And Bridget Von Hammersmark: Together At Last
26 October 2009 7:55 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Five years ago, there is no way you would have been able to tell January Jones and Diane Kruger apart just by looking at their photos. Jones had a big part in American Wedding, of course, and Kruger was the most beautiful woman in history in Troy, but come one. They're both unbelievably gorgeous blondes with blue eyes who, until recently, were more likely to play eye candy than characters with real substance. But in 2009, of course, Jones and Kruger are Betty Draper and Bridget von Hammersmark, respectively, which means seeing the two of them together in a movie will be a real treat. Variety reports that they'll play two of the women in Liam Neeson's life as he tracks down an identity thief in Unknown White Male (yes, Neeson seems to be attempting to single-handedly rid the world of bad guys with every new film role he takes »
News: Blood Oath's Editing Surprises and Premiere Announcement
25 October 2009 8:56 AM, PDT | doorQ.com | See recent doorQ.com news »
D.L. Warner updates doorQ.com on the latest progression of her hot new webseries Blood Oath, a gay take on yaoi and anime, premiering shortly, everywhere.No, I don't mean discovering that Jon has changed my brutal mutant soldiers into ballet dancers. These surprises are about subtlety in the performances that pare very pleasing to someone looking for her characters to come to life. There was a lot I saw live and on the monitors dureing that made me happy during the Blood Oath shoots themselves, but it's hard to see everything. Throughout the fight scene I was watching to make sure that Goggles(Aaron Blake or Brian Avery) didn't lose his red scarf or that Vincent's (Matty Ferraro) ponytail didn't unravel or Rik's (Lance Wesley) military patches stayed in place. There weren't a lot of moments when I could focus on the facial expressions that happened during the fight scene. »
'The Boondock Saints II': A cult hit gets a second shot
22 October 2009 6:00 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
As writer-director Troy Duffy recalls it, the cast and crew of The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day were more than a tad nervous when they began work on their Boston-set, vigilante-action sequel. “Everybody was terrified to be the guy that screwed it up,” he says of the Toronto shoot for his movie, which is released October 30. “They knew the fans would find out where they lived and burn their f—-ing house to the ground." If you've never heard of Troy Duffy or his films you’re not alone. The Boondock Saints, a violent slice of Tarantino-esque Irishsploitation, was »

Bruce Willis Confirmed in Kane & Lynch, Hitman 2 Update
21 October 2009 8:55 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
It’s been a while since we heard anything on the videogame movie “Kane & Lynch” (over a year now, in fact), but according to producer Adrian Askarieh, Bruce Willis has indeed signed on to play Kane, with casting for the pivotal Lynch character still in the works. Also, they’ve nailed down a director in former second unit man Simon Crane, who has done work on “Troy” and “Tomb Raider”. According to Askarieh, it was easy to get Willis, since the “Die Hard” star called the “Kane & Lynch” script written by Kyle Ward (who is also penning “Hitman 2″) one of the best action scripts he’s ever read. Major kudos, considering that, well, Willis once read the script for “Die Hard”, and some consider that the best action movie ever made. For the gamers out there, the movie won’t exactly follow the game, but will maintain the basic premise. »

Halloween Creep Launches Film Company
21 September 2009 6:36 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
The man behind the mask of director Rob Zombie's Halloween ghoul Michael Meyers has formed his own horror film production company.
Tyler Mane has launched Mane Entertainment, LLC and hopes to start shooting his first project, the horror thriller Penance Lane, in 2010.
The actor, who has also appeared in Troy and X-Men, insists his films will be super-low budget.
He tells WENN, "Right now you have to go smaller to get bigger. I think we, as filmmakers, need to be more responsible in this rough economic period, and mitigate the financial risk of making films.
"Indie films are taking a beating. I firmly believe that some of the best, most creative films are done on a smaller budget. If you're absolutely committed to getting a high quality project, it forces you to think outside the box and make the best use of your resources." »
Concept Art from Orlando Bloom’s New Thriller ‘The Cross’
17 September 2009 1:38 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
Andrew Niccol (writer/director of Gattaca) takes us into an oppressive future once again with The Cross. The film follows two travelers (one played by Orlando Bloom) that reach a border through which the commanding guard (Vincent Cassel) lets no one pass. Ever. Conflict, of course, ensues.
Jean-Vincent Puzos (production desginer on this film and 10,000 BC) has created the following concept images for the future world of The Cross:
.
Niccol got an Oscar nomination for writing The Truman Show and Bloom seems to like blockbusters (see: Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Carribean, Troy). Between the two of them, the film could be both good and very profitable. Vincent Cassel showed playfulness in Ocean’s Twelve and a deadly serious side in films like Derailed and Eastern Promises. John Goodman also appears in The Cross - and speaking of Lotr who hasn’t longed for the return of King Ralph? »

Daniel Craig voted Hollywood's hottest torso
7 September 2009 7:05 AM, PDT | Boxwish.com | See recent BoxWish news »
When it was announced back in 2005 that Daniel Craig would be the sixth actor to play secret agent James Bond the decision was met with some controversy. However, with the backing of previous Bonds and Bond-fans alike, people began to accept him as the new fictional spy. Since then he’s made two critically acclaimed Bond films, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, starred in other Hollywood hits and won numerous polls with his ruggedly handsome looks. So it comes as no surprise to us here at Boxwish that he’s gone and done it again. This time he’s won the title of Hollywood’s Hottest Torso in a survey conducted by Lovefilm.
It doesn’t take a genius to work out which film inspired viewers to propel him to this status. The now almost iconic scene in which Bond emerges from the sea in nothing but a pair of tight trunks, »
